In the hills of Georgia live a family of hillbillies. They're also squids. These squidbillies drink, make meth, mud-bog, and destroy property. The characters are:
* Early Cuyler, an extremely violent and drunk redneck. His hat always changes between shows, usually saying something like "Booty Hunter", "Sonny Lied!", or "Guns Don't Kill People, I Do". He has gone to prison and is often scolded by the sheriff for making pinecone moonshine or holding up the convenience store. He was made CEO of the [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]]'s company to act as a scapegoat.
* Rusty Cuyler, Early's son. He is more naïve and morally centered, but is also dumb and gullible. He is a [["Well Done, Son" Guy]].
* Granny Cuyler, the feeble and senile mother of Early and Lil (maybe their granny or great granny, it's unclear the exact relation). She often sees visions of squid-Jesus.
Line 9:
* Dan Halen, the [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]] and owner of Dan Halen Industries. His company appears to make sheetrock, but really dabbles in violent mutant corn, corrosive body spray, baby death traps, and foreign arms sales. Dan is a (usually) naked, pear-shaped blob of flesh with long red hair; good luck assigning a species to him. Revealed in an episode focused on him to have existed throughout the history of mankind in the exact same form, and to have been a part of many terrible events. Including the German Nazi Party.
'''''Squidbillies''''' has been running on [[Adult Swim]] since October 2005. It finished its 12th season in September 2019 and has been confirmed for a thirteenth season.

* [[Abusive Parents]]: Early has knifed and shot Rusty a few times, among other things.
* [[The Alcoholic]]: Early Cuyler is rarely without his homemade pine cone "party liquor".
Line 27:
'''Tom Treebow:''' ''Watch out Jesus he's got a laser!'' }}
* [[Complexity Addiction]]: Dan Halen's plots are usually ''far'' more complex than the end goal justifies, such as using a massive clone army to rig the vote to revoke Dougal County's dry Sunday status, making the whole city blind so as to win a softball game, or building a copy of the Large Hadron Collider to open a black hole for the sole purpose of disposal of a dead hooker.
* [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]]: Dan Halen in spades, hearts, clubs, and diamonds. When his "Baby Hammock" product is described by parents as a baby death trap, [https://web.archive.org/web/20120725105317/http://video.adultswim.com/squidbillies/the-baby-hammock.html he sues the parents] for infringing on his copyright for a product called the "Baby Death Trap."
* [[Crapsack World]]
* [[Dead Baby Comedy]]: Most of Dan Halen's products. See above.
Line 63:
* [[Only Sane Man]]: Rusty Cuyler, to an extent.
** Occasionally the Sheriff, when he's not being the [[Cloudcuckoolander]] with an [[Expansion Pack Past]].
* [[The Other Darrin]]: Charles Napier was the voice of the Sheriff in the first nine episodes, being replaced by Bobby Ellerbee afterwards.
* [[Quarter Hour Short]]
* [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old]]: Dan Halen is really 20,000 years old and have been behind countless acts of evil, like helping Hitler, causing the Black Death, killing dozens in the French Revolution and ''nailing Jesus to the cross''.
Line 79:
* [[There Are No Therapists]]: "I'm not a therapist. I'm... The Rapist. It's right there on the door. Look, everybody makes this mistake."
* [[Too Dumb to Live]]: The Sheriff, often literally. Good thing he has several hundred replacement bodies.
* [[Training
* [[Villain Protagonist]]: Early.
* [[White Sheep]]: Early's civilized cousin, Durwood. {{spoiler|also [[Long-Lost Relative|Dr. Bug.]] }}
