Remember, kids, we're professional cartoon characters. Don t try this at home. Based on Sam Purcell s enormously popular underground comic, The adventures of Sam & Max: Freelance Police! is an edgy and often irreverent, impudent, insolent, impious and silly series about a pair of likeable law enforcement types who don t take guff, from anybody. It' s about the timeless struggle between good, evil and snacktime;the weekly mishaps of a sixfoot dog, Sam, and a threefoot rabbitything, though he prefers the term lagomorph, Max, who have a mirthful time trying to resolve only the weirdest criminal cases of the day. Really. For your own good, and the good of mankind, enjoy Sam & Max: Freelance Police!

| User Reviews |  | Before its time rating: 5
This is a series that was far ahead of its time. If it were on today, this would be a headliner on Cartoon Swim. It is full of good-natured violence, ridiculous fast-paced prose, zany antics, and detailed artwork that makes it stand out from the crowd. I love cartoons, but there are few that hold up as well as this does. Strongly recommended.

Dissapointing on so many levels. rating: 2
I was always told that if I looked into the box of happy childhood TV memories, all I'd find was a bag of disappointment. Ignoring that, I rewatched several cartoons from the 80s & 90s only to discover that they're not as cool as I remember them. This ranks as high as SatAM Sonic on the disappointment scale.
Like the way reading the Sonic comics will ruin your ability to ever enjoy the cartoon again, or your contempt you feel for the Series of Unfortunate Events or Queen of the Damned movies after reading their books, playing the awesome episodic games by Telltale disintegrated the beergoggles on this series for me. If Sam & Max seasons 1 & 2 are tequila, S&MFP is Zima. It's so watered-down that the the main characters are scarcely themselves; Sam is supposed to be a gun-waving, bad driving, crank calling kleptomaniac & Max is supposed to be sadistic, violent, threatening, & HE'S the one who's supposed to be trying to eat everything.
The problem with this cartoon is that they targeted it for children & put it on fox. It SHOULD have been targeted at teenagers & put on either Nickelodeon or MTV. With the new games out & inappropriate for anyone under 13 to play, I can only recommend this series to players' 12-&-under siblings.

Merry Mayhem Made for Minors rating: 4
As a long time fan of Steve Purcell's comic book, and having played Hit the Road all the way through (the only computer game I've bothered to play), I enjoyed this interpretation of the characters. Sam and Max have been made kid friendly, but the merry mayhem that makes them who they are is still very much present.
