From Metacritic:
"The Sam & Max episodes let players guide the Freelance Police through a series of bizarre—and often sidesplitting—mysteries. Sam is a six-foot dog in a baggy suit sporting a trombone-sized .44 hand-cannon. Max is a three foot "rabbity thing" with a saw blade grin and the impulsive nature of the average piranha. Together they patrol the sticky streets of a fantastical New York City, righting wrongs, pummeling perps, and ridding the urban landscape of the shifty legions of "self-propelled gutter trash" that litter their streets. Sam & Max have appeared in comics, video games, an animated TV series coming soon to DVD, and an Eisner award-winning webcomic. [TellTale Games]"

Six episodes in Season 1 :

101) "Culture Shock"
102) "Situation: Comedy"
103) "The Mole, the Mob, and the Meatball"
104) "Abe Lincoln Must Die!"
105) "Reality 2.0"
106) "Bright Side of the Moon "

They gave away Episode 104 : "Abe Lincoln Must Die!" earlier this year (or perhaps last year), and the last time I checked the Steam store, they were still offering this single episode for free.... just in case you need a small taste to see if it's right for ya'...

Enjoy,
