Product Description
From Amazon.com
Writer-director Kevin Smith revives the characters of his indie classic film Clerks for this animated series created for network television. Though it aired for just two episodes on TV, the two-disc set has all six episodes plus a bevy of special features.
The episodes feature store clerks Dante and Randal and their ongoing adventures among the shelves of your local corner store. Never far from the epicenter of these adventures are the irreverent Jay and Silent Bob. Whether it's getting trapped in the walk-in cooler, attending their high school reunion, or fighting rival Leonardo Leonardo (who wants to dominate the local Quick Mart market), Clerks spoofs TV and movies with mocking pop-culture jokes and cameos by a number of celebrities. Ultimately, though, Clerks: The Animated Series suffers at the hands of network censors, lacking the obnoxious punch that made Clerks the film so offbeat and amusing.
Smith doesn't disappoint, however, with the inclusion of a number of special features on the DVD set, most notably the ever-insightful director's commentary with guests Jason Mewes (Jay), Brian O'Halloran (Dante), and Jeff Anderson (Randal). So while the series itself may be ill-fated, featurette on the making of the animated series--including storyboards and information on character development and the comic book influence on the drawing style--make this a robust offering for Kevin Smith completists. --Adam Medros

Just Buy It Already,
This review is from: Clerks: Uncensored [2 Discs] (Full Screen) (DVD)
Everyone else has written reviews explaining what it is, so I won't. Just scroll down to find out. So if you like what they say, buy it. It is only $10 at Best Buy, and goes great with Clerks the movie.

Why did ABC have to pick this show up?,

This review is from: Clerks: Uncensored [2 Discs] (Full Screen) (DVD)
When I first heard Clerks was a cartoon, I had come home and my brother told me that he bought the DVD set. I was supprised to find out Clerks was ever a TV show. I blaim this on ABC. I assume many people did not hear of Clerks the Aminated Series prior to its realse on DVD. I find the show to be almost as good as the movie. It could have been better, had ABC not put restriciotns on it (see comentary of episodes.) The show would be much better off on HBO, or even UPN (once again, see comentary.) This just goes to proves once again that Kevin Smith is a comedic genious. All of movies are classics (this does not include Jersy Girl, I have not seen it yet.) Whether it is the second episode being a flash back episode, or Dante and Randle not leaving the store no matter what exiting things are happening out side the store, every episode is great. It is a shame most of the shows adiance did not know it existed till it came out on dvd and only 6 episodes were made. I also heard that comedy central was supposed to pick up the episodes around the turn of the year. I even think i saw an episode on CC. What happened to that?

better than most of his movies.,
By Ash Williams "Deadite Killer" (edina mn usa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Clerks: Uncensored [2 Discs] (Full Screen) (DVD)
i liked this a lot more than jersey girl,chasing amy, dogma, jay and silent bob strike back and even mallrats. abc never should of cancelled it, the only thing i didn't like was in the discreto burrito episode they make fun of quentin tarantino(completely uncalled for and unnecessary)also this "uncensored" thing does'nt mean much. the only thing they'd need to censor (nudity) is censored but other than that, pure genius, almost as good as the film it was based on
