The series has been described as " Davey and Goliath meets South Park". The "Nature" two-parter and the final season is featured in a non-linear but episode-to-episode continuity, in which it showcased the show's shift from a satirical black comedy to a nihilistic and bleak psychological comedy-drama, depicting the convictions and mentalities of other characters (meant as an expansion on subplots from the first two seasons), exploring topics such as child sexual abuse, rape, abortion, latent homosexuality, and the Oedipus complex. The show, predominantly in the first season and second seasons (excluding the “Nature” two-parter), is a straightforward satirization of the archetypes of Middle American suburban life, modern-day White Anglo-Saxon Protestant culture, and religious fundamentalism. The series follows the titular Orel Puppington, a young happy-go-lucky and naïve Protestant who showcases his commitment to God, while dealing with the cynicism of his abusive and alcoholic father, his lethargic mother, and the devoutly Protestant town of Moralton in which he resides. Moral Orel is an American adult stop-motion animated black comedy-drama series created by Dino Stamatopoulos which originally aired on Cartoon Network's nighttime programming block Adult Swim from Decemto December 18, 2008.
