YMMV / Heil Honey I'm Home!

• Audience-Alienating Premise: It's a sitcom with the most infamous dictator in history as the protagonist, and it lasted just a few episodes.
• Big-Lipped Alligator Moment: Neville Chamberlain singing "I'm a Little Teapot".
• Bile Fascination: Some people are interested in the pilot, just to see if it is that bad.
• Broken Base: Viewers are split over whether it was a crass and tasteless insult to the victims of Nazism, a legitimately intelligent satire of Nazism a la The Producers and/or a genuinely funny concept that people overreacted to, or simply just a bland comedy show, which parodies 50s sitcom elements.
• Cliché Storm: Part of the idea of the show was taking various '50s sitcom stock pieces and placing an incredibly notorious figure at the center. Many viewers, however, feel that the show plays those stock pieces too straight, strangling any humor they may have had with Hitler as the lead.
• Crosses the Line Twice: When the premise of your show is doing a standard '50s sitcom starring Adolf Hitler, you're bound to be crossing several lines.
• Fashion-Victim Villain: Hitler appearing in a plaid sweater vest.
• Funny Moments:
  • These clips from un-aired episodes (actually shown among bit from other shows that Gareth Marks, who played 'Arny Goldenstein' did). If you like broad comedy, these bits from Heil Honey are actually pretty good.
  • Hitler answering the phone in the pilot: “Hi, Hitler here. No, Bob Hitler. Who do you think?!?”
• Hilarious in Hindsight:
  • Given that the intention and premise is virtually the same (only with a different head of state), you could consider this show a spiritual predecessor to That's My Bush!
  • The idea of a sitcom featuring Hitler seems to be a precursor to the Hitler Rants videos, where Hitler is usually depicted in modern-day scenarios with his cast from Downfall.
• Narm: A lot of it intentional, parodying the clichés of typical American sitcoms of the 1950s. Of course, some of it was unintended.
• They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: Again, it wouldn't have pleased everybody, but the setup could've lent itself to many interesting ideas, like darkly comedic scenarios, true parodies of sitcom cliches, and social commentary. It also probably would've worked much better as a cartoon. Or as a recurring sketch in a much-larger show rather than its own series.
• Values Dissonance: A big factor in its cancellation, as its comedic take on Hitler's Nazi Germany, with Hitler featured as the protagonist led to its crucifixion from viewers almost immediately after it aired. These days, satire of Nazism is nowhere near as controversial as it was at the time.
