A truck racing dog and greaser ferret. "BUDDY THUNDERSTRUCK"

General
Just ran across this on NETFLIX.
This show is so awesome!
Made by the same guys that do "Robot Chicken".
The main characters are a metal-head snaggletooth semi-truck racing dog, and an albino greaser ferret mechanic with a an elvis hair-do and poofy tail.
It just showed up on my list out of nowhere and is freaking hilarious!
The weasels and ferrets in the show move around like little turbo slinkies, and its got the stop-motion style of "Fantastic Mr. Fox" with a mix of just outright silly and creative humor.
I've only seen 3 episodes but I have to rate this as a FURRY "must watch".

FA+

I'm surprised they based the show off something as obscure as truck racing; a motor sport which I enjoyed, but has since fallen out of the norm compared to Europe and other areas. I miss the old tandem style trucks in the Great American Truck Racing Series of the 1980's.
So when I saw the trailer to see what it was, I got about 15 seconds in before going "Oh holy crap I have to see this!"
I got to see a few semi-truck races when I was a kid going to monster truck rallies and destruction derby events with my dad and grandfather.
I was all "Squeee! They got the figure 8 track!!!"
They even got the mentioning and sound of the crazy powerful turbo diesel engines.
So throwing an anthro-dog and anthro-ferret into a "Smokey and the Bandit meets Johnny Bravo meets old school 70s-80s Americana" type TV show...
Well...
I got a really strange boner right now.
I want to say it is a nostalgia boner...
But it may be a ferret mechanic and semi-truck racing boner too.
I think I'm in love with this show.
I haven't seen a dull episode yet.
Been quite a few times we pause it till we finally stop laughing or play certain scenes again to keep laughing.
I really wish it was a 20+ episode a season format instead of this new 12 episode thing that everyone is doing.
I cannot remember the last show I watched, where after finishing it, I wanted to immediately watch it again.
I REALLLLLLLLLLY hope this show gets another season. It reminds me a lot of the stuff from the late 90s and early 2000s like Johnny Bravo before all the "political correctness" and "sensitivity police" crap started happening.
