Delocated was a live-action television show from Adult Swim that aired from 2009 to 2013 and starred Eugene Mirman, Jon Glaser, Nadia Dajani, Jacob Kogan, Jerry Minor, and Zoe Lister-Jones. The show revolved around a character named "Jon," played by Jon Glaser, a man in the Witness Protection Program who starred in his own reality show, which made him a target for the Russian mob.

Throughout the course of the show, Jon wore a ski mask to conceal his identity and his voice was distorted to protect his identity. He also had a bodyguard, "Mighty Joe" Jonson, played by Steve Cirbus, who was constantly by his side to protect him from the dangers that came with being in the Witness Protection Program.

The show followed Jon as he moved his family from New York City to a small town in the Midwest, where he was forced to confront the challenges of living in the Witness Protection Program. Throughout the show, Jon interacted with a variety of characters, from his family members to his bodyguard, to the people he encountered in his new town.

One of the most notable aspects of Delocated was the presence of a narrator, voiced by Eugene Mirman, who provided commentary throughout each episode. The narrator often made sarcastic remarks and poked fun at the characters and situations, adding a unique and humorous element to the show.

Throughout the course of the show, Delocated played with the conventions of reality television, poking fun at the genre and its many tropes. The show often featured interviews with various characters, similar to those seen in reality shows, but instead of being informative or insightful, these interviews were often nonsensical and played for laughs.

Another unique aspect of the show was its use of subtitles. Whenever the characters spoke, their dialogue was subtitled, creating a surreal and almost cartoonish atmosphere. The subtitles often added additional layers of humor to the show, as they were sometimes used to translate the characters' inner thoughts or to provide commentary on the action.

Delocated was also known for its use of celebrity cameos. Over the course of the show's run, a variety of actors and comedians appeared in the show, often playing themselves in absurd and exaggerated roles. Notable cameos included Fred Armisen, Janeane Garofalo, Chloë Sevigny, and Paul Rudd, to name just a few.

While Delocated was certainly a comedy, it also had a surprising amount of heart. The show often focused on the strained relationships between Jon and his family members, particularly his wife Susan, played by Nadia Dajani, and his son David, played by Jacob Kogan. Through the course of the show, Jon tried to repair his relationships with his family and become a better husband and father.

Overall, Delocated was a unique and hilarious show that blended elements of reality television and sitcoms to create something entirely its own. With its wacky sense of humor, surreal atmosphere, and talented cast, the show quickly developed a devoted following and has gone on to become a cult classic.

Delocated is a series that ran for 3 seasons (31 episodes) between April 1, 2008 and on Adult Swim
