Before Eminem was a household name, he lived in a caravan with his mum. This itself is both true and funny. This show is fairly funny in places, but not nearly as good as 8 Mile. But it does have an awesome Screech from Saved By The Bell impression in it. As it was based on pop culture at the time, it is now ludicrously out of date. Eminem's characters have not aged, cause he keeps incuding Ken Kaniff etc in his albums and shows - but the other characters are long dead. Still, some statements about certain film 'stars' are still true, as is the bit where a bemused Marshall asks why on earth everyone cares about famous idiots instead of important people like doctors, architects and Lawyers. Only for people who like Eminem. Everyone else, watch Southpark instead.

davezilla6920 November 2004Het, don't get me wrong, I love animation and vulgar humor, but this show sucked! I have tons of "not for kids" style animation and love them (like Family Guy, the Simpsons, Futurama, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Southpark, Rejected, and many more). I was excited to get this one (hey, I even like Enimem's music). Well, I popped it in and was completely disappointed. Who was this written for, potty-mouthed third graders? Makes Southpark look like the Smurfs?!?!? Who coined that lie? I'm not even a huge Southpark fan, but they are genuinely funny, this stuff, on the other hand was lame and barely slugged through each pointless episode. The best part was when I fell asleep through the whole middle section. I don't know, maybe I missed the best part (which I doubt). All I know is "I don't care". It was a waste of time and money. I can sum it all up in one word - "sucks".

leonblackwood13 November 2014Review: What a total load of rubbish! The jokes were terrible and the animation looked awful. The jokes about Versace, Robert Downey Jr. and Kurt Cobain, went way too far and I personally found them to be disrespectful. I really can't believe that the production team watched these episodes and found them funny. The South Park scenes were also a waste of an opportunity to make something special! Basically, this must have been made when Eminem was going through a sketchy period in is life because I really can't imagine him making something so bad, nowadays. Disappointing!
Round-Up: If anyone found this series funny, could you please let me know because I thought that it was a really bad attempt at humour. It seems like Eminem used this opportunity to have a go at everyone that had said a bad word about him. Through the whole 5 episodes, I failed to laugh once so this has to go down as one of the most offensive pile of rubbish that I have seen in a long time.
I recommend this movie to people who are into there animation series about Slim Shady and his friends, including his alter ego, going around causing mischief. 1/10 -
Razzzor27 January 2004A word of warning, unless you have an obscure sense of humour or you are an Emin3m fan you will absolutely hate this. Basically Slim Shady is the alter ego of Emin3m's real persona Marshall Mathers III these two live with 4 other mis-fits in Em's drunken Auntie's tailer in a run down tailer park. Em and his big pal coincidentally called Big D are on a mission to pound the living sh*t (as they put it) out of any celebrity they meet. Marshall desperatley seeks to get bedded by every beauty that comes along, the others play minor roles that are non-essential. To put it plainly i hated this, i really wish it had been better because i respect Em' as an artist. But the only fault here is the cartoon itself, the animation and drawings are worse than South Park (Which is basic but still very good)and the humour is dry and un-funny. This show strives to be the excellence of South Park with the exception that they swear a whole lot more, fails at every hurdle.
About a 2-3/10, just avoid. Is not worth the money. -
captainhoek-7263231 May 2017God, this is such garbage. If you haven't seen it, I'll sum up every joke for you: Celebrity gets something disgusting and disturbing done to them. South Park is funny because it smartly satirizes pop culture, this may as well have had its figurative head smashed by a car door. If you like incredibly lazy, moronic, immature humor, ugly animation, unconvincing voice acting, and hitting yourself in the head with a hammer, then I've got the show for you.

wikkedrecords27 March 2008I watch a lot of Funny Cartoons and lots of them are not for children. As far as the humor in this show goes it is totally uncensored and every aspect of it is hilarious. The Character Slim Shady is Completely how you would invision eminem from his first album only(The Slim Shady LP). Lots of the voices of characters were voiced by eminem, some directors, and other rappers like Xibit. The show has music and freestyles as u would expect a show made by eminem. originally this show was only viewable online, instantly became popular and was bought to be released on DVD. IF u like Crude Humour, and Fairly Complex Character Plots than this may be a show for you.
