The third season of the animated television series '' Aqua Teen Hunger Force'' originally aired in the United States on Cartoon Network's late-night programming block Adult Swim. Season three started on April 25, 2004 with "Video Ouija" and ended with "Carl" on October 24, 2004, with a total of thirteen episodes. ''Aqua Teen Hunger Force'' is about the surreal adventures and antics of three anthropomorphic fast food items: Master Shake, Frylock, and Meatwad, who live together as roommates and frequently interact with their human next-door neighbor, Carl Brutananadilewski in a suburban neighborhood in South New Jersey. In May 2015, this season became available on Hulu Plus.

In season three the cold openings featuring Dr. Weird and Steve were replaced with clips from the failed pilot ''Spacecataz'', a potential spin-off of ''Aqua Teen Hunger Force''. Episodes in season three were written and directed by Dave Willis and Matt Maiellaro. Almost every episode in this season features a special guest appearance, which continues a practice used in past seasons. This season has been made available on DVD and other forms of home media, including on demand streaming.

Production

Every episode in this season was written and directed by series creators Dave Willis and Matt Maiellaro, who have both written and directed every episode of the series. All episodes originally aired in the United States on Cartoon Network's late night programming block, Adult Swim. This season was one of the original seasons branded under the ''Aqua Teen Hunger Force'' title before Willis and Maiellaro started using a different alternative title for each season in 2011. As with most seasons, several episodes originally aired outside of their production order.

In season three the cold openings featuring Dr. Weird and Steve are replaced with clips from the pilot episode of ''Spacecataz''. ''Spacecataz'' is a failed pilot for a potential ''Aqua Teen Hunger Force'' spin-off, surrounding a feud amongst The Mooninites and The Plutonians, which was never aired on television. The length of each clip was determined by the length of the episode.DVD Commentary for "Little Brittle" The cold opens were discontinued entirely beginning in the fourth season, with the one time exception of the season eight episode " Allen Part One", making season three the final season to feature consistent cold openings.
