# Aqua Teen Hunger Force season 6

The sixth season of the animated television series, Aqua Teen Hunger Force originally aired in the United States on Cartoon Network's late night programming block, Adult Swim. Season six started on March 29, 2009, with "Gene E" and ended with "Last Last One Forever and Ever" on May 31, 2009, with a total of ten episodes. Aqua Teen Hunger Force is about the surreal adventures and antics of three anthropomorphic fast food items: Master Shake, Frylock, and Meatwad, who live together as roommates and frequently interact with their human next-door neighbor, Carl, in a suburban neighborhood in South New Jersey. In May 2015, this season became available on Hulu Plus.
The season six finale, "Last Last One Forever and Ever", was made as a special live action episode. The episode features David Long Jr., who had won a contest through Burger King in order to perform the role of a live action Carl. Episodes in season six were written and directed by Dave Willis and Matt Maiellaro. Almost every episode in this season features a special guest appearance, which continues a practice used in past seasons.
This season has been made available on DVD, and other forms of home media, including on demand streaming. In 2020, the episode "Shake Like Me" was pulled from further reruns and home media releases including the 2022 Aqua Teen Hunger Force: The Baffler Meal Complete Collection DVD set, due to "cultural sensitivities".

## Reception

Jonah Krakow of IGN gave "The Creature from Plaque Lagoon" a 7 out of 10, which is considered "Good", calling the episode "straight forward" and comparing it to the season four episode "Dickesode". Kraków gave "Time Machine" a negative score of 6.7, as well as a negative review, saying Master Shake's "Safety Fart" song was the only amusing part of the episode. "2-And-a-Half-Star Wars Out of Five" aka ("Pink Man") was given a 7.5 by Kraków, found several jokes throughout the episode amusing, but found the scene with Carl throwing batteries at Drew funny, he also stated "ATHF is all about the journey, not the destination". Kraków found Frylock's actions in "Fry Legs", a little strange and out-of-character for Frylock, who usually seen as the voice of reason. Kraków also found parts of "Fry Legs" humorous saying "yet another enjoyable episode that delivered its share of laughs, awkwardness and bloody chunks of flesh", and giving the episode a 7.9. Kraków found "Der Inflatable Fuhrer", easy to follow and was surprised with the direction the episode went in saying "The jokes were funny, the ideas were fresh and the outcome was predictable, but fulfilling nonetheless", and giving it an 8.2. Kraków gave "Last Last One Forever and Ever" ("Live Action") a score of 6.0, and a negative review, calling it "over-hyped" and saying "the show lost focus and failed to deliver the one thing that has kept it going for six seasons: jokes".
