Axe Cop (2012–2015)
8/10
A Great Show

A Great Show!

Unfortunately some people won't get it; A shot explanation is that it's meant to be confusing, over the top and nonsensical.

The madness of the show isn't just the protagonist, Axe Cop, being so called because he has an axe, it's that it's totally feasible for these characters to "take a dinosaur" instead of "take a taxi", and more so when the destination is another planet, not just "down the block".

Frankly i've had enough of characterisation always trying to be the "more cool than the guy before, with extra shoulder spikes", ad i find refreshing the positively childish attitude with which the show is scripted.

So i'm totally cool with Axe Cop's partner being "Flute Cop", and i'm thankful that it's this writing team that did this show, because if someone else with your run-of-the-mill writing talent would have done this show, it would have been Axe Cop and Shotgun Cop, or Axe Cop and Fire Girl, or Axe Cop and Axe Spy, and so on and so on.

Great show - but Bob's Burgers is still better.

My vote : 8/10 - for those who "get it".
