Monster Lab is an American adult-animated horror comedy series, created by Hunter Hancock, A.K.A MeatCanyon. The premise of this series revolves around Katz and Uno, two assistants for a now deceased mad scientist, moving into a suburban town, in order to create monsters that can help people with any problems. The story moves into darker territory, and intense stakes however, as Katz and Uno face lots of peril and mayhem on their journey to help humanity. Their crazed neighbour, Henry King, is approached by the ghost of Chris Kyle, the American sniper who has been sent down by God to complete a mission in the Middle East. And by extension, Chris "helps" Henry by vowing to kill Katz and Uno.

No Celebrities Were Harmed: Jesse (or at least his appearance) is based on a semi-famous internet user Morgan Lahaye, better known by his nickname BlackOps2cel.

Ambiguously Human: Aside from the teal skin of most people, Katz and Uno stick out for their odd shapes. Especially the one-eyed Uno, who wouldn't look out of place among the monsters he helps make.

Surprisingly Happy Ending: Given the mind behind the show (plus the general goriness of it), it's surprising that it ends with Henry King redeemed and forgiven, Greg brought back to live, and Chris Kyle dragged off to heaven by God.

comment
Captain Ersatz: The dentist's son is based on Anton Chigurh from No Country for Old Men. The priest is based on Judge Claude Frollo from Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Mosipopo is an even less subtle (and less heroic) take on Quasimodo. "Rock", the monster that Jesse fights in the Episode 5 boxing ring, is a very unsubtle clone of Rocky from Rocky. He even calls out "ADRIAN!" when he loses.

Big Fancy House: The place that Katz and Uno live in a house big enough to have a drinking bar, a huge library, and the titular monster lab — all while blending into the rest of the suburbs. Either their house is Bigger on the Inside or it just has a really big basement.

Heaven's Devils: Implied with Chris Kyle. While he's referred to as "God's holiest angel", his ability to possess people and his demands for blood sacrifice imply ... something else. This is subverted in the finale where he dons divine armor and is in fact stated to be an angel.

Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: Henry King's interactions with Chris Kyle are implied to be his delusions. Henry himself comes to believe that Chris Kyle is just a figment of his own psychosis and even when Chris Kyle possesses him, it could just be him hitting rock bottom. The final episode makes it clear that he was Real After All.
