"Cabin Boy doesn’t care whether you laugh or not. It’s dangerously indifferent to anything but its own need to confuse, which is one reason squares hated it. This deep affection for the non sequitur, for the random joke, for the thing that will thrill a few and befuddle many, would later be refined by Late Night With Conan O’Brien and elevated by Mr. Show With Bob and David. Adult Swim would make it, if not mainstream, then at least the lingua franca of college night owls. Dan Harmon would turn it into something akin to a theology. But it was Resnick and Elliott who stopped making sense first, and for their efforts they were shunned and mocked before becoming heroes to weird kids everywhere." (Link here)
