'The Heart, She Holler' First Look: New Adult Swim Series With Patton Oswalt And Kristen Schaal (VIDEO)


First Posted: 10/07/11 11:48 AM ET Updated: 12/07/11 05:12 AM ET

Who other than Patton Oswalt could have two trailers released almost the same day that could not be more different?

After yesterday's release of "Young Adult," the new Jason Reitman feature starring Oswalt opposite Charlize Theron, comes the the first look at "The Heart, She Holler," which sincerely may one of the most bizarre programs ever to air on Adult Swim.

When we spoke to Oswalt earlier this week, he said that to prepare for the show, he re-read Michael Lesy's "Wisconsin Death Trip." Based on this new trailer for the show, it's clear why Oswalt had to examine the dark underbelly of developing America to star in the new live action show from "Wonder Showzen" creators PFFR.

Oswalt also told The A.V. Club about the show, "Think of the worst Williamsburg hipster douchebag, then think of what that person thinks the South is. And that’s what the show is. It’s what someone who would never set foot in the South thinks the South is. Like, try to imagine if Abel Ferrara made 'Hee Haw.'"

But based on this sizzle reel, the show truly defies description. Oswalt stars as a feral man-child who inherits a town, called The Heart, She Holler, from his father. Kristen Schaal co-stars as one of his sisters intent on taking the town back from him.

"The Heart, She Holler" premieres on Sunday, Nov. 6 on Cartoon Network.

What the hell?

I thought that they could NEVER produce something worse than "Assy McGee".

But I like "Adult Swim". I'll try to watch it.

Mix 2 parts "Mary Hartman" to three parts "Nothing but Trouble"
Stir...

Looks about as subtle as their dud "Strip Mall" with Julie Brown

Hard to beat Tim & Eric, but I think they did.

Weirder than Tim & Eric? Looks like it. Funnier? I highly doubt it.

Another underwear stainer of a company who doesn't make their videos available in Canada. What is the logic in that? How could it be a bad thing to promote something in a market that might be interested? I thought it was just Hulu.

You're kidding? I get the first comment? ALLRIGHT! Have seen some trailers of this guy on the telly and initial reaction was this is like Bruno which even though it got some praise kind of left me wondering where I left my luggage? That said,I will watch it anyway because I am a concsumer and that is my job! Right? They have a hit with those "Mayhem" commercials on the insurance ads! Have you seen the latest Blind spot ones? RIOT! Thank you.
