Anyone see this very silly '70's vintage TV show?

Adult Swim (cable, Cartoon Network latenight) just ran a very silly episode.

'A hospital chef is savagely attacked by a ladle'

Very silly.

;D

I've never heard of it before, but it sounds like fun. This website (http://www.clivebanks.co.uk/Darkplace%20Intro.htm) says it was made in the '80's but not broadcast until fairly recently.

ooh, I hope BBC America runs it.

Oh, that website was hilarious! The same dark tone, the same false-seriousness. Too funny. Reminds me of Batman from the 70's....

Ah, Batman was a great series. Totally ridiculous and sincerely deadpan. Wow, if Darkplace is like that, I'm even more intrigued.
