Smiling Friends on Adult Swim/Cartoon NetworkSmiling Friends on Adult Swim/Cartoon NetworkIf you purchase a product through a link on our site, we may receive compensation. Let’s get right to it: sadly, “Smiling Friends” is abruptly airing two final “lost” episodes before it disappears forever. The series finales are called “Friend-Bot (Version 12589218731809213528796879521)” and “Charlie’s Uncle Dies and Doesn’t Come Back,” and in them, well, we don’t actually know what’s going to happen, because the episode descriptions have been intentionally misleading all season.
It will probably follow Pim and Charlie, in any event. The divisive, beloved, and reviled comedy series will air its last episodes on Adult Swim/Cartoon Network on Sunday, April 12 at 11 p. m.
You can watch it live on either Sling TV or DIRECTV (free trial). It is also available on HBO Max, which we recommend bundling with Disney+ and Hulu. “Smiling Friends” follows the chaotic adventures of Charlie and Pim in their day job, working for a charity devoted to making people smile.
Despite how pleasant that may sound, the adventures the two undergo tend to get somewhat... deranged. Watch "Smiling Friends"watch "Smiling Friends"Buy NowThe series is the brainchild of animators Zach Hadel (better known as “psychicpebbles”) and Michael Cusack.
Here’s a look at everything you need to know to watch the latest episode, and the rest of season 3.
