Freedom Toons (2014– ) User Reviews

Best of Political Satire

[isaacwest-66001 · 8/10 · 9 March 2023]

Because Freedom Toons clearly favors the right-wing I refuse to give it a 10/10. That said it is my favorite political satire as it still makes fun of both sides (in fact, when it pokes fun at Shapiro and Trump it might be at its best). Most importantly, Seamus' Freedom Toons maintains a nature of lightheartedness and laughter, refusing to become yet another fearmongering that is far too often found across the political wasteland.

Lastly I'll talk about what's most important; and that's the quality of the show. The cartoon production is weak but considering this is 100% independent it's certainly forgivable and the animations are still fun, while every character introduced: even the ones based on Seamus himself - have the purpose of being funny to which end it is successful. Thanks for you work Seamus!

An Honest Review

Well, he's at his best when he's making fun of Ben Shapiro. He really captures his essence, caricatures him in a way that highlights his flaws, and is absolutely hysterical when he does it.

Otherwise, they are political cartoons, I understand that, but sometimes they get a little too political and not really satirical.

Still, overall, with the sheer amount that he throws out there, he has more hits than he has misses. But, even when he's not doing cartoons, when he's on Timcast, he has a quick enough wit where he's insightful and sharp with a delivery that is deadpan enough that I don't think the rest of the people in the room catch how funny it actually is until it's too late to laugh.

It's bias and right leaning, but he has not problem pointing the gun at his own side and those tend to be the funniest episodes... not because he's being bipartisan, but because he's familiar enough with the territory to know exactly where to put the knife.
