b'Jeff Martin returns to Syndicated with Lesley and Ben to bring us a show from the pits of hell, Ugly Americans. We talk about the Comedy Central show\\u2019s potential and how it ultimately missed its mark. Turns out Ugly Americans suffers from protagonist syndrome, but we still find time to applaud its character design and background animation. We talk about the minor tweaks we could make to this show to really make it stand out in the 2010 television season. Plus, hear what Ben really thinks about Amy Schumer! Our friend Jeff Martin is currently running a crowdfunding campaign for his new book Hockeypocalypse Slashers over on Zoop, and we insist you check out his campaign.We\\u2019re really excited to talk about Adult Animation together for Season 2 of Syndicated with Lesley and Ben.
