The show hasn't been aired in Sweden very much, but I did see a few episodes along with the movie that was released. And I liked most of what I saw and found it quite funny.

Seeing as how it is a cartoon, no animals were hurt in REALITY. Neither do I think that it influences people to want to hurt animals, and if it DOES influence some people, farting on a pet won't really hurt it (Tina has farted around me on several occasions actually ).
