'Tom Goes To The Mayor: The Complete Series'
(Animation, et al / 3-Disc DVD / NR / (2004) 2007 / Warner Bros.)

Overview: Tom Peters has just moved to the small town of Jefferton, best known for its strip malls, buffet restaurants and run-down parks. Seeking to make a name for himself, Tom begins setting up meetings with the eccentric mayor of the town. Together, they develop a number of pointless ideas that never seem to go anywhere. Sometimes they seem to make things worse.

DVD Verdict: 'Tom Goes to the Mayor' is a hilarious and bizarre cartoon in which every episode finds Tom Peters in some way attempting to work with the Mayor of the lovely town of Jefferton on some poorly conceived plan. The show is often random, bizarre, disgusting and just generally crazy. It's entirely possible you just won't get the show and I certainly wouldn't blame you if you didn't!

But fans of other unusual adult cartoon shows (Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Sealab, etc.) will likely fall in love with the inspired absurdity of this show. Virtually every one of the 30 episodes is worth a viewing, and the show is loaded with great guest stars including Bob Odenkirk, David Cross, Jeff Goldblum, Sarah Silverman, Gary Busey, Michael Ian Black, Fred Willard, and countless more.

The only drawback to the DVD set is that the special features are rather disappointing. There just isn't a whole lot of good content there, and some bits of material are even directly repeated in different portions of bonus materials. Despite this one drawback, however, it's a phenomenal show, all 30 episodes of which are collected in this set. This show isn't for everyone, but if it's for you, you're going to love it. This is a Standard Version Presentation (4:3) and comes with the Special Features of:

30 episodes on three discs
Behind-The-Scenes
Deleted Scenes
Episode Commentaries
Promos ... and more
