I am writing this off of the back of a long term affinity for the comic series - which I have been a fan of for years now, so there is probably a sprinkling of bias here!

The show takes the same concept as the comics of making light of the human experience and runs with it.

I'm here for a wholesome show with dialogue that I personally really enjoy, and think that the joke still lands in an animated tv format, so in that sense it's mission accomplished.

Admittedly the comics probably lend themselves better to the concept, in that it's easier to find little pockets of every day situations to make light of, but ultimately the show is still enjoyable, and does a pretty good job of organically bringing about these situations to match the signature style and wit of the source material.

All in all, I thoroughly enjoyed the show, and only docked it a point because I enjoy the comic marginally more!
