Cartoon Dump! -- The Worst Cartoons Ever, with Mystery Science Theatre's Frank Conniff
Steve Allen Theater, at the Center For Inquiry West (Los Angeles, CA)
Rated 2.9 by 61 members who went.
Imagine a world where a children's show has a cast of characters that have more psychological disorders than you do. Add the mind-numbing debauchery of the worst, most poorly animated cartoons from the 1950s, '60s and '70s. Then throw in the wry commentary you came to love from "Mystery Science Theater 3000," and what have you got? Cartoon Dump!

Do yourself a favor. Spend a little extra money on a cab, and get good and baked before the show. It's enjoyable without it, but with it, it's just a hoot.

Quirky, edgy fun! If you like cheese, spread this event onto your favorite cracker. The cartoons were deliciously oh so bad with cheap animation, stupid scripts, and plenty of "what were they thinking?!" moments. Interspersed between the cartoons, there were skits and songs by a live troupe which included Mystery Science Theatre 3000's Frank Conniff. I especially liked Frank's depressed character's recommendation of a book called, "God's Just Not That Into You." They brought in a guest comedian (whose name escapes me at the moment) who was pretty funny. My husband and I had a great time and would recommend this show. By the way, although the cartoons were G-rated, "Cartoon Dump" is not for kids due to language in the live part of the show.

Imagine a world where a children's show has a cast of characters that have more psychological disorders than you do. Add the mind-numbing debauchery of the worst, most poorly animated cartoons from the 1950s, '60s and '70s. Then throw in the wry commentary you came to love from "Mystery Science Theater 3000," and what have you got? Cartoon Dump!
Cartoon Dump! is a result of an alliance between noted author/producer/cartoon scholar Jerry Beck and writer/producer/comedian Frank Conniff (TV's Frank from "Mystery Science Theater 3000"). Hosted by Compost Brite (Erica Doering), Cartoon Dump! boasts a beguiling cast of characters who will bring laughter and joy into the hearts of borderline schizophrenics and catatonic acidheads the world over. It's a kids' show that's not for kids, but for adults who are emotionally and developmentally damaged kids at heart.
