The show nails a stellar one-two punch, playing the rapid-fire barbs exchanged between the pigeon and Queensberry against Tyson's straight-ahead buzz-saw gags.
Mike Tyson Mysteries is highbrow lowbrow lampoon, alternately smart and stupid, dizzy and disgusting.

Enjoyable for a number of reasons that don't even make sense. The show is much more clever then it should be, and the comedic talents involved really shine.
Mike Tyson Mysteries is more then just a gimmick. Mike Tyson himself manages to steal just as many scenes as co-star Norm MacDonald, who also plays an unforgettable character. The quality of the animation also far outshines many of the shows it seeks to emulate.
Mike Tyson Mysteries is an all around well made adult cartoon comedy.
Report
This show is basically Scooby-Doo for adults. It's got all the fun of mysteries mixed with all the violent, stupid fun that the series is now known for. Most episodes have an ending that will leave you just baffled at how stupid and shocking it can be, yet so good. Particularly Pigeon is the funniest of the cast, but the whole slew of characters provide laugh-out-loud funny jokes, consistently. Mike Tyson even knows that he is making fun of himself and that makes it all the more better. This show only gets better with each season; I recommend it to anyone with a funny-bone.
Report
It is amiably absurd and mildly profane, entertaining in a dry, droll way.
The series' humor is both audacious and intelligent, and the combination of that familiar Warner Bros. animation style coupled with modern references (all through a sendup of the style's original formulas) leaves no mystery for Mike to solve.
The first episode is fairly entertaining in an absurdist way.
Those who have willingly accepted Tyson back into the cultural mainstream--as an item of kitsch or sheer fascination--might wind up scratching their heads over the series’ motivation, which, as the episodes are constructed, feels like the entire point. And while there’s precedent for that, it feels like slim compensation even in such a modest package.
Standard Williams Street show in terms of art style, episode length, and humor. I've been watching their shows since Sealab. At first I was slightly disappointed, thought it wasn't as funny as it could have been but it got a lot funnier by season 3. The first 2 seasons were hit & miss and they were overdoing the pigeon character being a deviant supercreep, but they toned that down in season 3. Mike Tyson is great, smart choice. Still waiting for season 4 on Hulu.

This show pokes fun at **** issue which I don't find funny at all. Especially for an Ill stricken individual who obviously needs some mental help. Like the "Family Guy" TV series, this is out-right so disrespectful to anyone who's been sexually assaulted. **** this show!
