P R I N T Printer Friendly The Series:
A self absorbed milkshake named Master Shake (Dana Snyder), a box of French fries named Frylock (Carey Means) who is some sort of scientist, and a wad of meat named Meatwad (Dave Willis) live in New Jersey, next door to Carl (also voiced by Dave Willis), their grumpy human neighbor whose interests include above ground pools, cars, eighties arena rock, and pornography. together, they were Aqua Teen Hunger Force but are now, for reasons never really explained, Aqua Unit Patrol Squad 1. this name change, and the fact that the series’ creators said they were shifting the action from New Jersey to Seattle, caused much uproar on internet forums around the world but let’s be honest here – it was all part of the joke. nothing has changed here outside of the new opening intro (featuring music from Josh Homme), which isn’t a bad thing – the gang still live in the same house and Carl is still their neighbor, we just get a text line that says ‘Seattle’ instead of New Jersey at the bottom of the screen (though it should be noted that the disc labeled Aqua Unit Patrol Squad 1 actually contains the last batch of episodes from Aqua Teen Hunger Force that didn’t make it to the last set and vice versa – so the discs are basically backwards.
