Exclusive: 'Aqua Teen Hunger Force' live-action episode, starring T-Pain as the Fryman

Tpain_frylock_2 As a huge fan of Adult Swim’s Aqua Teen Hunger Force, I have to admit that so far the new episodes for season 6, which kicked off in March, have been a bit lackluster ("Creature From Plaque Lagoon" was pretty good, though). But even if the show is starting to show its age, you gotta hand it to these stoners for continuing to come up with weird-ass stuff, like the upcoming live-action episode on May 31, which stars T-Pain as Frylock (pictured). Apparently, Pain is a huge fan of the show (he often wears an Ignignokt pendant around his neck and actuallydid the voice for the "Die" ventriloquist dummy for the "Dummy Love" ep) so he was more than happy to wear his signature stovepipe hat in french-fry yellow for the part. Props to ATHF for getting world’s preeminent Auto-tune maestro to play a floating box of fries, and the hairy-shouldered Dave Long Jr. (cast from an open audition) makes a great Carl (picture after the jump). I am a bit skeptical of Jon Benjamin (Important Things with Demetri Martin) as the live-action Master Shake, though — couldn’t we get a straw jutting out of his head? Plus, it’s hard to imagine Shake as Shake without Dana Synder doing the voice. But if there’s one reason to forfeit 12 minutes of your life to this nonsense, it’s to see how the exercise ball Meatwad, pictured above with T-Pain, will portray a rolling hunk of ground meat. Anyway, I’ll be there. You?

    I know I should be ashamed of loving this show, but I can’t help it. I usually wait for the DVDs though so this’ll be no different.

    the only things that were good was the guy who played carl, they sets were good,but they should have had the people who do there voices play the live action characters like dana synder(master shake)should of play master shake in a shake costume, then the other two voice over guys should of done it, the rest was awful, meatwad as a excercise ball? come on they can do better

  • anonymous

    you guys, the whole point of this episode is to show that if they were in real life, the aqua teens would just be a bunch of crazies doing nothin with their lives. having meatwad be shake’s psychotic hallucination was awesome. the episode was great. the only thing that bugged me was i kept expecting jon benjamin to call someone brendan and give them crazy, drunken advice. other than that little distraction, EXCELLENT episode

  • Chicago joe…..

    Great episode. I thought H Jon Benjamin was great. I loved him in Dr. Katz as Ben as well as one of my favorites of all time Coach McGuirk from Home Movies. ( he also voices Jason) He did the voice of mothman from the eps. Bus of the Undead.
