The Drizzle - Setting and Premise

Setting and Premise

The series revolves around the surreal adventures and antics of three anthropomorphic fast food items: Master Shake, Frylock, and Meatwad, who live together as roommates next door to a human, Carl Brutananadilewski. The main protagonists often interact with various villains or other individuals in each episode, these interactions are often restricted to one episode, as minor characters rarely reappear in following episodes. Some episodes feature the main protagonists interacting with celebrities (such as pornstar Tera Patrick) and occassionally encounter historical figures. The Mooninites are two pixelated aliens from the Moon, who frequently appear and serve as main antagonists of the main characters by wreaking havoc though a series of illegal or destructive actions, and appear more than most others outside of the main cast. Other recurring characters have made several appearances including: Oglethorpe and Emory, MC Pee Pants, Cybernetic Ghost of Christmas Past from the Future, and Dr. Wongburger. Each episode often ends with the non canon deaths or injures of major characters or destruction to their property (both Carl's and the Aqua Teen's homes have been damaged or destroyed in multiple episodes), often times restored with no explanation or mention in the following episode.

In the shows first seven seasons the protagonists homes were located in a suburban neighborhood in South New Jersey. In 2011 during the eight season the location was changed to Seattle, Washington. The Seattle neighborhood was completely identical to their former home used in the first seven seasons, however, each episode began with the caption "Seattle" written on the bottom middle of the screen. During the ninth season the same neighborhood was located in the fictional location Seattle, New Jersey.
