Brickleberry is an American animated sitcom that premiered on Comedy Central on September 25, 2012. The series is created by Roger Black and Waco O'Guin and executive produced by Daniel Tosh.

Synopsis

The series follows a group of ne'er-do-well forest rangers and their daily lives in the strange fictional Brickleberry National Park.

Characters

  • Steve Williams (voiced by David Herman) - Steve is an overconfident, bumbling park ranger who takes himself and his job way too seriously. Even though Steve has been Ranger of the Month at Brickleberry for several years, he’s not nearly as good at his job as he thinks he is. Steve’s Ranger of the Month title means everything to him and he will do anything to keep it. Despite all of his flaws, he does know the park like the back of his hand. Steve’s father was also a Brickleberry ranger, so he was raised in the park. Steve dreamed of working at Brickleberry since he was a child but put his dream on hold after his father went missing in the park and was never found. Steve is shot by Woody at the end of the episode Two Week's Notice.
  • Ethel Anderson (voiced by Kaitlin Olson) - Ethel is a 25-year-old ranger. She was the top ranger at Yellowstone and was transferred to Brickleberry in an effort to get the park back on track. Steve sees Ethel as a threat to his Ranger of the Month title. Ethel sees Steve as a bumbling idiot. There is a bit of sexual tension between the two, but neither would admit it. Ethel possesses extraordinary ranger skills, but is much more humble than Steve. She learned these skills while being raised by her adopted Native American parents. She also learned how to split eights and down a fifth of vodka in five seconds without triggering her gag reflex.
  • Malloy (voiced by Daniel Tosh) - Malloy is a grizzly bear cub Woody has taken in as a pet and he spoils him to death. Woody lets him play video games all day and eat junk food. Though he may be cute and cuddly, Malloy has a dirty mouth, a superiority complex and is a bit of a narcissist. He enjoys putting down the rangers on a daily basis, especially Steve.
  • Woody Johnson (voiced by Tom Kenny) - Woody is a 55-year-old ranger with a military background. He worked his way up to head ranger over his 30 year career at Brickleberry. He always has the park’s best interest in mind and struggles to boost the dwindling tourism numbers by any means necessary.
  • Denzel Jackson (voiced by Jerry Minor) - Denzel is an African American ranger who is horrible at his job, but can’t be fired because he works for a government agency. Denzel has a strange fetish for elderly white women that gets him into hot water. Denzel worked for the park service in New York City, but after some harassing phone calls to Barbara Bush, he was transferred to Brickleberry. Denzel finds his new job much more challenging than working in Central Park because he’s afraid of bugs, snakes, and pretty much anything else that inhabits the woods.
  • Connie Cunaman (voiced by Roger Black) - Connie is a female ranger who isn’t the most feminine woman around. The other rangers wonder about her sexuality, but everyone is afraid to ask because she could wrestle them all to the ground and choke the life out of them. Connie is unusually strong for a woman and that comes in handy when she has to wrestle a bear or drag a downed redwood off the road. Connie was born to be a park ranger; she has never worn makeup in her life, and loves living in the woods. When Connie gets excited, her vagina makes growling noises and she has to talk it down like a wild animal.

Reception

Dennis Perkins of The A.V. Club gave Brickleberry a D-, stating that the show tries too hard to be offensive but instead falls flat with lifeless characters and talented voice actors wasted on the "dreadful writing".[11] Brian Lowry of Variety also laments the show's eagerness to offend, comparing it unfavorably to South Park: "Yes, "South Park" has long since established animation is a fine place to skewer sacred cows, but "Brickleberry" has nothing more on its mind than seeing how far it can push the boundaries of dick and handicapped jokes. As a consequence the premise -- a second-rate national park -- is purely incidental."[12]
