Really Surprised!

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

I vaguely remembered watching this as a child and never have I felt so happy to re-watch a TV-series. Back then the humour mostly went over my head, but today it had me laughing hard!This show is beyond hillarious with tons of fourth wall breaks, literal humour and puns mixing up with the oddest premise and characters ever seen. It is hard to describe it with all its gold. You are guaranteed entertainment if you do not mind the randomness of its nature. It contains a couple of running gags which are repeated in every episode and can get a little tiring at times, but mostly they find a new way to keep it funny.Comedic timing is everything in these kinds of TV-shows and what "Sheep in the Big City lacks in timing it makes up for in how self-aware it is of its ridiculous nature. A comedic gem with plenty to laugh at.

In my opinion, this cartoon series was dull, boring and never, ever funny. Sheep goes to the City after leaving his depressed owner Farmer Brown and gets hunting by two bumbling morons named General Specific and Private Public. Well, I get two syllables for you there: BOR-RING! I was relieved the cartoon got canceled because 1: It's flat-out dull, 2: It seems like somebody hired a 10-year-old to write a bad script and approved it and 3: I'm pretty sure nobody thinks this cartoon is funny. My advice: don't download it on I-Tunes or buy the season box sets in the future(I should know, I didn't downloaded it.) If Cartoon Network DID announce that the series will be on DVD box Sets, don't even think about buying them! 1/10 Stars >_<

Truly good cartoons appeal to people of all ages, and "Sheep in the Big City" certainly falls in that category. There is enough basically zany humor to appeal to children, but when the show makes references which go far beyond the world of Saturday morning animation, it is the adults who can enjoy the humor.In one episode, the narrator explains that the whole cast is down with the flu, but fortunately, they've found an old film of Sheep's grandfather to show instead. It turns out to be a brilliantly funny black and white, silent takeoff of Chaplin's masterpiece "City Lights", with Sheep in the Chaplin role. In another episode, the narrator declares that this show is uniquely different from other cartoons in its style and urban setting - just as Sheep is escaping from the city and starts running through a "Roadrunner" style desert.Great entertainment grabs your attention and holds it every moment. In this show, everything from the hilarious narration to the fake commercials to the bizarre Swedish segment at the end is worth paying attention to.In the early 60's, Rocky and Bullwinkle offered this kind of entertainment. Now we have "Sheep", thank goodness.

this show was great...one of the most clever pre- adult swim shows ever produced by cartoon network. with such clever segments as "touched by a ninja" and "the ranting swede", how could this show not be genius? the show was sadly short lived, as many of the satires and may not have been geared towards the younger audiences of cartoon network. the brand of offbeat humor might not have appealed to the younger crowd as much either, but i know my friends and i loved the show. if you're a big fan of silly satire, the type of offbeat humor provided by such shows as the kids in the hall, you're definitely a Sheep fan. WHY Isn't THERE A DVD I CAN BUY???
