The Brak Show is one of Cartoon Network's 15-minute animated series that airs during Adult Swim. It is a spin-off of Space Ghost: Coast to Coast featuring recurring characters from that show and Cartoon Planet, both of which used stock footage from the Hanna-Barbera cartoon Space Ghost and Dino-Boy. The protagonist is a Space Ghost villain named "Brak", voiced by Andy Merrill, who developed a quirky persona for the character. Image File history File links Broom_icon. ...

The Brak Show was preceded by the variety show Brak Presents The Brak Show Starring Brak, which spun two episodes. Both of the episodes aired in the US only once in 2000, although clips of the show could be caught after the Space Ghost Coast to Coast time slot on a few rare occasions (one episode aired in the UK on Bravo on 23 August 2006). But despite the similarities in the titles, the two Brak Shows have very little in common. Those who missed the first Brak Show can at least be tided over by Brak Presents the Brak Album Starring Brak, which features songs and segments from the original version. (Also, some segments from the original Brak special were included on 'The Brak Show' DVD Volume 1.)

The show is about Brak's suburban life with his alien mother and Cuban father. It originally started off as a parody of situation comedies, but just like its sister show, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, the plot dissolved over time and became increasingly bizarre.

Characters

Brak, as seen on SGC2C

Brak (voiced by Andy Merrill) is some sort of anthropomorphic "space cat" (according to one episode) with an eccentric personality and a speaking lisp. He is quite unintelligent but with a very sweet and gentle personality (although very occasionally he displays a more aggressive or sinister side) and seems to be a pre-teen adolescent. He still has attachments to stuffed animals (such as "Hippo", who is actually a lobster plush-toy), yet nonetheless is starting to be attracted to girls (as in the episode "Poppy"). He often randomly breaks into (usually non-rhyming) song. The writers use a wide variety of musical styles for the songs--covering jazz, country, showtunes, rap, and rock and roll. He considers Zorak a close friend, although in return Zorak treats him with open contempt. Image File history File links Brak. ... Image File history File links Brak. ...

Rock and roll (also spelled Rock n Roll, especially in its first decade), also called rock, is a form of popular music, usually featuring vocals (often with vocal harmony), electric guitars and a strong back beat; other instruments, such as the saxophone, are common in some styles. ...


Dad (voiced by George Lowe) is a small (about 4 feet tall, apparently due to a freak accident involving a shrink ray) human with a Cuban accent (likely an homage to Desi Arnaz), who is extremely self-centered, lazy and nonsensical. Unemployed, most of his time is spent sitting at the kitchen table and reading the newspaper, although it was revealed in an episode he was a secret agent. An episode seldom goes by without him delivering a moral to the story that is completely incoherent, has no relevance to the situation and typically ends in a non sequitur. Occasionally, he displays prominent womanizing and male-chauvinistic behavior, which is sometimes rebuked by Brak's mom. Brak's father is generally an extremely poor role model, although he does display a certain protectiveness towards his son and once told him, "I love you like a brother, man." However, he also does tend to criticize people such as he did with Mother "Did I complain when you got all fat and had that stupid baby?"

Mom (voiced by Marsha Crenshaw for the first 13 episodes and web episodes, and Joanna Daniel for the remainder of the series on TV) is a creature of the same "species" as Brak, with the fashions of a housewife character on a 1950s sitcom. She is largely the only (semi-)sane character on the show. She displays little romantic or sexual interest in Brak's Dad, and often does not tolerate him. It has been established, however, that when she gets drunk she finds him suddenly irresistible. As voiced by Crenshaw, she is most often an homage to June Cleaver and similar motherly characters, with occasional hints of discontent with her husband's laziness and sexism. When Daniel took over the role, Brak's Mom inexplicably acquired a British accent, and became far more open in her discontent with domestic life and her annoyance with and disdain for Brak's Dad. Her change in accent has been commented upon several times on the show. The 1950s decade refers to the years 1950 to 1959 inclusive. ... This article is about a genre of comedy. ...

Zorak, as seen on SGC2C
Zorak, as seen on SGC2C

Zorak Jones (voiced by C. Martin Croker) is another character from Space Ghost: Coast to Coast, a human-sized mantis. On this show, he plays the role of an Eddie Haskell character, who's also a sociopathic, sadistic, morally-bankrupt misanthrope. He often hangs out with Brak, but usually only as a way to force him into doing something for his own benefit. Zorak considers himself "above" Brak and his entire family, and is constantly criticizing and insulting them. Zorak also enjoys bullying Clarence, the neighborhood nerd. One Zorak quote: "Why are you all still alive? Oh wait, it's only Tuesday." Brak's mom sometimes calls him Arthur, which may be a reference to Happy Days or Night of the Twisters.

He often gets killed off in the show, in the same way he did in Space Ghost: Coast to Coast. Despite his usual grating voice, he occasionally exhibits a "beautiful man-voice" ("Psychoklahoma", "War Next Door"). Space Ghost at his desk Space Ghost: Coast to Coast is a spoof talk show on the cable TV channel, Cartoon Network. ...


Zorak also appears a villain of one episode of Jabberjaw series. Jabberjaw was a 30-minute Saturday morning animated series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions from September 11, 1976 to September 3, 1978 on ABC. Jabberjaw is a great white shark who has the brain of a sardine and the courage of a guppy. ...


Sisto was Brak's identical but smaller and red suited brother who made cameo appearances on the show in which all he did was walk across the screen and flatulate, until he was killed off in season two by having cannibalistic aliens eat him. This is likely an allusion to Chuck Cunningham Syndrome. A cameo role or cameo appearance (often shortened to just cameo) is a brief appearance of a known person in a work of the performing arts, such as plays, films, video games and television. ... Cannibal redirects here. ...


Thundercleese (voiced by Carey Means) is Brak's next-door-neighbor, a militant Killbot (with the visual appearance of a Gundam or a similar anime-style robot) who also is passionate about his lawn and garden. A short-lived shtick on the show involved Thundercleese blasting Zorak often (inherited from Space Ghost Coast to Coast, see above). He is very aggressive and warlike, always speaking in a loud, robotic monotone. When Brak is troubled, no matter what the problem is, Thundercleese invariably suggests swift and brutal retaliation. Thundercleese's social skills are rather lacking, and before social get-togethers he will study very bad "party jokes" in preparation. On the Adult Swim New Year's party it was shown that Frylock of Aqua Teen Hunger Force created Thundercleese, which is why they sound alike (both characters were voiced by Means). This article does not cite any references or sources. ... A killbot is, as the name might imply, a stereotypical fictional robot from science fiction. ...

Clarence (also voiced by Andy Merrill) is a chubby purple alien and schoolmate of Brak's at Learnmore High School (home of the Lowly Worms). He was a supporting character on the show who made more regular appearances towards the end of the series. Clarence is very socially awkward, but idolizes Brak. His constant talking (in a stereotypical "nerdy" lateral lisp) often annoys those around him, and when faced with an extremely stressful situation he will wear his mother's sundress and bonnet for comfort. Many of his appearances end with him being maimed, usually by Zorak. Image File history File links Headkicker. ... Image File history File links Headkicker. ... Andy Merrill (born November 27, 1966 in Newark, Ohio) is a voice actor. ... For other uses, see Worm (disambiguation). ...


Marlon the Magician was the original inventor of the double-beer hat and the golden showerhead (see time machine episode). He was also called upon in a later episode to revive a slain Zorak (or at least the parts that Brak's family hadn't already eaten). He is a decrepit old wizard who seems much more interested in partying than the dark arts. He is also an excellent rapper. A beer hat (sometimes called a beer helmet) is a plastic baseball hat or football helmet attached to which are two can-holders, from which beer is consumed through a specialized plastic tube that runs from the persons mouth up along the hat and branching off into both containers. ...

Trivia

  • In the original episodes of the show, the titles of the show appearing in the opening credits were different for each episode, derivatives of classic TV show titles such as Petticoat Brak, usually having nothing to do with the content of the episode nor with the actual name of the episode (given in the table below; as used in the DVD contents listing, for example). After about a dozen episodes, the title The Brak Show became standardized in the opening credits.
  • In Episode 18 of The Brak Show Meatwad from Aqua Teen Hunger Force made 2 brief cameos riding a scooter in the street. His name is seen in the credits as a "Special Guest". Meatwad is also seen as one of Brak's "Carrot-Catures" in Episode 11.
  • In Episode 3 of The Brak Show we see a flashback of Zorak in Grandma Prison. His prisoner number is #655321, the same number Alexander DeLarge wears in the Stanley Kubrick film A Clockwork Orange.
  • In episode 9, Brak's jaw is put back on at a wrong angle which makes his voice exactly like Meatwad's voice from Aqua Teen Hunger Force. Aqua Teen Hunger Force co-creator Matt Malleiro's name is in the credits under "waspoligist."
  • In the episode "Hippo," a postcard for 2 Stupid Dogs is seen on Brak's bulletin board.
  • In an episode of Space Ghost: Coast to Coast called "Sweet For Brak," Brak leaves Space Ghost's show for his own sitcom. In this episode, Zorak says the same line he says in the first episode of The Brak Show.
  • In the episode "Cardburkey" when Brak turned everyone into penguins, Joanna Daniel was talking to Marsha Crenshaw about the fact that the family took her over Marsha, which Marsha Crenshaw had rebuked.
  • In the season 1 DVD, all menu screens (including languages, episodes, and extras) had original songs voiced by Brak. In the season two DVD; the songs were voiced by MC Chris.
  • A cartoon planet segment shows Brak singing a song about beans. In the episode "New Brak" Clarence is singing this song on his show.
  • The clock in Brak's room is the beef-log symbol from a "Brak Presents The Brak Show Starring Brak" segment.

The Brak Show, Vol. 1 DVD Review - MovieWeb (1121 words)
The show proved to be quite a riot with its array of celebrity guests and comical disputes between Space Ghost and the raspy-voiced mantis Zorak.
Another episode shows the damaging effects of a broken family when Brak’s mother is seduced by an owl/octopus hybrid and is taken to the creature’s mom’s basement where she is held captive in a cocoon.
The Brak Show is a jumbled, sometimes obnoxious program, but I still can’t help but snicker when I reflect on the episodes.
