I really hate this show nowadays!
There is something about good claymotion that just makes it seem even funnier than any other format..possibly including live-action.
Okay, there's not a whole load of stuff i could write as spoilers, as it's just solid gags after gags, in-between a loose story. I watch Gogs every year or so, because it's just such a classic.
"The Gogs" are a rather dysfunctional family living in pre-historic times who spend most of their time trying to find shelter, or avoid large animals, or both.There's Grandpa, a flatulent old geezer who thinks that any problem can be resolved with the use of his club...
The "Gogs" are a prehistoric family that interact with dinosaurs etc. on a daily basis.
People tend to recall Walace and Grommit once asked about there favourite claymation cartoon. Although the latter has of course a unique quality of it's own it would be just unfair to simply skip "Gogs".
When I first saw this fantastic series, I thought it was from Nick Park and the creators of Wallace and Gromit, but it isn't. Basically it's all about a thick stone age family living their lives trying to survive and develop.
Bodily fluids, slapstick violence, toilet humour and dinosaurs. Gogs was simply brilliant.
This is a pretty funny claymation show that has aired on reruns on several occasions and is still quite amusing. It concerns the life of a group of cavemen (prehistoric people) and theyr'e day to day life.
