Editorial Reviews

Australia released, PAL/Region 4 DVD: it WILL NOT play on standard US DVD player. You need multi-region PAL/NTSC DVD player to view it in USA/Canada: LANGUAGES: English ( Dolby Digital 2.0 ), WIDESCREEN (1.85:1), SPECIAL FEATURES: 2-DVD Set, Cast/Crew Interview(s), Interactive Menu, Making Of, Trailer(s), SYNOPSIS: The banned TV series they didn't want you to see! Welcome to the star-studded and very irreverent world of Popetown. Here's where you'll find a cartoon pope, superstar voices, the hottest animators in town and a script that will make you fall off your pew with laughter. Imagine Father Ted meets South Park. You've never seen anything like it.Office politics exist in any workplace, but in Popetown there's a bizarre twist : the company is the Vatican and the Chief Executive happens to be the Pope.The long-suffering Father Nicholas runs the back-office at Popetown, a job that includes anything from ordering Friday's frozen fish fingers to planning prestigious public masses. Each day he struggles against the insane and chaotic bureaucracy of Popetown. He is so much a part of the fabric of Popetown that he can no longer see just how bizarre the others are : the sinister, corrupt and mysteriously wealthy Cardinals; the fame-obsessed TV reporter Sister Penelope ; the 77 year-old eccentric Pope with all the charm of an obnoxious seven-year-old (who likes Father Nicholoas so much that he takes baths with him); and Sister Marie, Father Nicholas' devoted and innocent assistant, who all too often acts before, or even without, thinking. ...Popetown

4.0 out of 5 stars Who laughs the last?, January 2, 2007
This review is from: Popetown [ NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.4 Import - Australia ] (DVD)
Funny presented cartoon explicitly satirizes clergy of whose belonging to Vatican can hardly be misunderstood.

According to preambles opening every chart, this ten episode set was created by a pupil bored at lessons conducted by a priest entertaining his students while teaching eternal ethics and moral issues, as supposed, one could understand, with just established government-funded clergy positions at schools round Australia.

It is interesting both an animation and DVD were produced before such an educative motion in Australia.
