Plot
The show is set inside the titular Superjail. Superjail is a prison of ever-changing size, which rests atop a volcano. That volcano is itself found atop an even larger volcano. Reality and time in Superjail are fluid concepts, and seem to bend at The Warden's whim.
The show typically opens with petty criminal Jacknife commiting a crime only to be foiled and captured by Jailbot. The opening sequence then plays, with Jailbot transporting Jacknife to Superjail while the show's theme song plays in the background. Episodes feautre a loose plot, which is eventually manipulated by The Twins. The episode then quickly breaks down into a psychodelic bloodbath, followed by an ironic or bizzare ending.
Development
In many ways the show was pre-dated by Bar Fight (A four minute long animation) which was made by Animators Christy Karacas and Stephen Warbrick. It has similar style that included a fight much like the ones shown in the Superjail show.
