'''''Mr. Pickles''''' is an American adult [[animated television series]] created by Will Carsola and Dave Stewart for [[Adult Swim]]. The series revolves around the Goodman family, especially their 6-year-old son named Tommy and the family's [[Border Collie|border collie]], the demonic Mr. Pickles. The series was picked up for 10 quarter-hour episodes for its first season, which premiered on the network on September 21, 2014, and ended on November 23, 2014. It was renewed for a second season, which premiered on April 17, 2016, and ended on June 26, 2016. It has been renewed for a third season, which premiered on February 25, 2018. The show will return for a fourth season, announced on November 5, 2017 (before the airing of the third season), with no premier date information provided.<ref name=":0" />
==Production==
The series was created by Will Carsola and Dave Stewart – of ''[[Funny or Die Presents]]'' notability – and executive-produced by Will Carsola, Dave Stewart, and Michael J. Rizzo.<ref name="Milligan 2014" /> The series was one of several shows pitched to [[Adult Swim]], according to the creators, who also operate under the name "Day by Day". Stewart recalled promoting it as a "one-line sentence", while Carsola remembered that it derived from a "write-off" session, where the two present ideas to each other in the form of scribbles for their amusement. Carsola explained that ideas in this process are released from the pressure "of them being good", occasionally finding "one that sticks".<ref name="Kutner 2014" /> They later explained at the 2014 [[San Diego Comic-Con International]] that the idea was based on ''[[Lassie (1954 TV series)|Lassie]]'', but has become "more of its own thing since then".<ref name="Begley 2014" />
Stewart's own female pet dog served as inspiration for the animators on the character of Mr. Pickles.<ref name="Begley 2014" />{{efn|Stewart mentioned that she was an [[Australian Cattle Dog]].<ref name="Zargari, Brunty & Davis 2013" /> He also pointed out similarities between her and the main character, and jokingly called her "Ms. Pickles".<ref name="Begley 2014" />}} Animation director Mike L. Mayfield recorded Stewart's dog playing around on video, with animators using the resulting footage as a basis for the character's movements;<ref name="Zargari, Brunty & Davis 2013" /> the series is [[Flash animation|animated using Adobe Flash]].<ref name="Simpson 2014" />{{efn|''Cold Hard Flash'' is an entertainment and news website dedicated to media produced with [[Adobe Flash]], founded by Aaron Simpson.<ref name="Simpson 2013" />}} Its setting is roughly based on [[Richmond, Virginia]], where the creators started out in entertainment before moving to Los Angeles.<ref name="Kutner 2014" /> The creators are given creative freedom by the network, with Stewart explaining the notes received by them as "minimal", much to their surprise.<ref name="Kutner 2014" /> The creators observed some inconsistencies as to what is considered unacceptable, but try not to question it and compromise instead.<ref name="Begley 2014" />
Elaborating on its 11-minute running time, Carsola described it as a 22-minute show "squished" into a quarter-hour.{{sfn|Zargari|Brunty|Davis|2013|loc=6:45–6:55}} Among the voices for the characters include [[Brooke Shields]],<ref name="Kutner 2014" /> [[Frank Collison]], [[Jay Johnston]] and Carsola and Stewart themselves.<ref name="Milligan 2014" /> Shields' role in the series came after looking at the creator's work for ''Funny or Die'' and obtaining the script for ''Mr. Pickles''. According to Carsola, the two were dubious over her interest in the series, but after being cast she provided lines in a recording booth in New York City while the creators supervised over [[Skype]].<ref name="Kutner 2014" />

==Broadcast and reception==
The series was picked up for ten quarter-hour episodes for its first season,{{sfn|Zargari|Brunty|Davis|2013|loc=7:10–7:20}} premiering on the network on September 21, 2014 following the ninth-season premiere of ''[[Squidbillies]]''.<ref name="Milligan 2014" /> In July 2013, the [[Television pilot|pilot episode]] was released online as part of a presentation of in-development shows for the network, partnered with [[KFC]]; viewers could vote for their favorite pilot, with the winner being broadcast on August 26, 2013.<ref name="KFC 2013" /><ref name="Adult Swim2013b"/> The series lost to ''Übermansion'', a [[Stoopid Monkey|Stoopid Buddy Stoodios]] production, although the presentation as a whole won an Internet Advertising Campaign Award in 2014 for "Best TV Integrated Ad Campaign".<ref name="Adult Swim2013a"/><ref name="Internet Advertising Competition 2014" /> The pilot was later published on the network's website on January 23, 2014,<ref name="Adult Swim 2014" /> and on YouTube on March 10 of the same year, becoming [[viral video|viral]] with over 700,000 views after roughly a month later.<ref name="Kutner 2014" /> A second season was mentioned at the 2014 Comic-Con.<ref name="Begley 2014" />
Reception for ''Mr. Pickles'' has been polarized. Writing for ''Strange Kids Club'', Mat Spitkovsky stated the series' extreme content matter left him at a loss for words as well as confused. Afterwards, he found it lacking in "class, creativity and goddammit, originality" in the vein of ''[[Superjail!]]'', although its "brazen approach at crass offense ... all in good fun" was "kind of cool."<ref name="Spitkovsky 2014" /> [[Aaron Simpson (producer)|Aaron Simpson]] of ''Cold Hard Flash'' called the series an amalgamation of ''[[Lassie (1954 TV series)|Lassie]]'' and ''Superjail!'', while observing some social commentary "to ensure this is more than just a multi-episodic sketch."<ref name="Simpson 2014" /> Mike Hale of ''[[The New York Times]]'' labeled it "the less tasteful but more mainstream" counterpart to ''[[Tim & Eric's Bedtime Stories]]'', another addition to the network.<ref name="Hale 2014" /> He wrote that the show was "more grisly than funny," but predicted it to have a cult following and that Shields' voice would add "surreal-pop-culture cachet".<ref name="Hale 2014" />
In Australia, the series premiered on August 3, 2015 on [[The Comedy Channel]].<ref name="Aug3Fox">{{cite web|publisher=The Green Room |first=Charles|last=Purcell|url=http://community.foxtel.com.au/t5/Foxtel-Blog/New-this-week-Aug-3-Rogue-Jonathan-Strange-Bitten-7-Days-In-Hell/ba-p/85240|title=New this week (Aug 3): Rogue, Jonathan Strange, Bitten, 7 Days in Hell and live sport|date=July 30, 2015|accessdate=July 30, 2015|archivedate=July 30, 2015|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20150730104035/http://community.foxtel.com.au/t5/Foxtel-Blog/New-this-week-Aug-3-Rogue-Jonathan-Strange-Bitten-7-Days-In-Hell/ba-p/85240}}</ref>
