| Sons of Butcher | comment |
Sons of Butcher (2005-2006) was a Canadian animated TV show based on the Canadian rock band of the same name and starring its three members, Sol Butcher, Ricky Butcher and Doug Borski. By day they run a butcher shop, but by night they form a rock band. They may seem at first like a normal group, but in every episode the three witness or create some weird and twisted moments. It's best to leave all sense of reality at the door when you watch this show.The animation was done entirely in Adobe Flash, except the three main characters, who had their actors' heads recorded live and superimposed in the show.The series aired on Teletoon's Detour block for 2 seasons and 26 episodes.The show extended into real life as the trio released three CDs and had a tour across Canada.Episodes can be viewed on the creators' YouTube channel, Massive Xplosion. | |

Religion of Evil | |
| Sons of Butcher / int_187bddc1 | comment |
Religion of Evil: In one episode, a priest came to Sol's therapy group to talk about the danger of cults, and what does he end up doing? Recruiting people to join his church... to be eaten by a giant silkworm so it could make silk to be weaved into a Hot-Air Balloon so he could reach God. | |

Macho Camp | |
| Sons of Butcher / int_4257cdf2 | comment |
Macho Camp: In the episode "Workin' the Steel", Ricky tries to get advice on how to score with women from two guys who fit this trope. They're fond of calling anything that doesn't fit within their view of masculinity "queer". Ricky goes along with it at first since their ways do appear to work, but after the two guys insult his music and Ricky hears the music they perform to win over girls (serenading them while playing acoustic guitar), he calls "bullshit" on them and goes back to his old ways: getting girls with rock music. | |

Hurricane of Euphemisms: When Sol decides to find replacement balls, he asks a cook if he has any. This leads the both of them to go back and forth with different names for them. During the credits of that same episode, the two make a list even LONGER. | |

Sequelitis: In-universe example, Ram Punchington foregoes doing Angel Death Avenger 5, because "everyone knows sequels lose their steam after the fourth sequel", instead making Angel Death Avenger: The Awakening, which is a prequel. | |

Extreme Omnivore: Again, Ricky. In the episode where he willingly ingests a tapeworm to lose weight, he uses that as an excuse to eat anything he sees, which includes raw chickens, a blender and even a peanut butter sandwich, with tractor tires as the bread. | |

| Sons of Butcher / int_b11ac9f5 | comment |
Abusive Parents: Sol and Ricky's dad Arpo Butcher treated them like crap, non-stop. He never referred to Sol as anything other than "Shithead". Of course he still cares about them, which he shows in one episode where he comes back to life as a man made of butcher meat with a jack-o-lantern for a head to kill the greedy producer. (It makes sense in context.) | |

Cloudcuckoolander: Pretty much all three of the main characters are this. The difference is simply WHAT they are cuckoo about. Sol is about the art of butchery, Ricky is about being a rock god and having sex with butt-ugly women, and Doug is about masturbation and cleaning. Of course, those are the only subjects that are constant in the series, more often then not they start going off on other subjects at the drop of a hat. | |

Serial Escalation | |
| Sons of Butcher / int_ce104b8e | comment |
Serial Escalation: Most of the episodes have these moments, but this was best defined in the episode when the three had to explain why they were parked in a Handicapped spot so as to avoid getting a ticket. It starts with Ricky saying how he became paralyzed from slipping on a tube of lube while being a rock-god, and in order to be cured he has to drink the breast milk of the literal mother of all strippers. Doug then says how he had to pick up the cleaning of the shop, and that his cleaning was so bright that he was called by the Canadian NASA to clean up the dark side of the moon (To which he would do for tax-exempt status). Sol interrupts then saying he'll give the real story, saying that he had to take care of his paralyzed brother and realized he could find a cure by going out to sea, gouging out the eye of a Kraken, breathing through gills in his balls, finding the legendary Meatlantis so the people could grow him a spine from a spine-plant for his brother. All before they have a war a hundred years later against the Shark-People atop an underwater volcano. All these stories end up being pointless as they all end with Ricky being cured, so they end up getting the ticket anyway. | |
