Overview
Brickleberry National Park is facing closure, but not if the park’s dysfunctional park rangers can help it! “Brickleberry,” an animated half-hour series, follows the crazy bunch of park rangers as they do their worst to keep the park running. Steve (David Herman) has been “Ranger of the Month” every month for years, so he feels threatened when Ethel (Natasha Leggero) is transferred from Yellowstone National Park to help whip the park into shape. Connie (Roger Black) and Denzel (Jerry Minor) are two unique rangers that each bring special skills (or in Denzel’s case, lack of skills) to the job, and Woody (Tom Kenny) is the hapless Head Ranger who puts nothing above his beloved park, except his adopted bear cub, Malloy (Daniel Tosh), who he’s taken in and spoils to death.

Primary
The show's humor indiscriminately satirizes various social, environmental, and governmental themes, often lampooning both progressive and conservative viewpoints without promoting a consistent ideological stance. Its primary objective is shock comedy and pushing boundaries, rather than advocating for a particular political agenda.
The movie features visible diversity in its cast, though without explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles. Its narrative frequently portrays traditional white male characters in a negative light, often highlighting their incompetence and moral failings for comedic effect. This framing contributes to the overall assessment of its DEI characteristics.
Secondary
Brickleberry's portrayal of LGBTQ+ themes is overwhelmingly negative. The show consistently uses homophobic slurs, stereotypes, and non-heteronormative identities as a source of crude, offensive humor. Depictions are primarily for mockery and shock value, lacking dignity, complexity, or any affirming counterbalance. The narrative reinforces harmful stereotypes without critique.
