Blech....
9 August 2023
Don't know the comic... didn't know there was a comic... don't care theres a comic...

All I can say is I made it 1 and a half episodes of the series and then said to myself.. "Why the heck am I watching this??"

It's boring, unentertaining, condescending, and uninteresting.

Seems to deal with adult-oriented topics - no not THAT "adult" - I mean ordinary adult topics... jobs, work, family, life, etc. As an adult.

BUT.. it's presented as if its made for 8 year olds.. slow and shallow... focusing on a "moral" more than any actual entertainment.

This is one of those animated series that is animated just to be animated and possibly save money. What I saw COULD be done as live action if the money was there. There's no reason this is animated since it's just about normal life for the most part.

I can see how it MIGHT work in a comic.. since its panel by panel by panel. The blue blobs would make the visuals interesting while the narrative is broken up and ingested differently. But as animation... with a streaming narrative.. it's just horrible in my opinion and the overly similar and repetitive animated characters doesn't make for any interesting visuals.

Blech.. Pass.
