Duncanville

I love this show. The cast ( Amy Poehler, Wiz Khalifa) and the characters are all hilarious. You can tell there was a story in season 1 that was building up or they were just saying outta pocket stuff but either way this show is hilarious and I'm just waiting for a weed episode!

I see a lot of 1 stars and I'm kind of confused. There are only 2 episodes of this show, and I think it's off to a good start. Sure it's first two episodes were decent, but it's very hard to judge a show off of its first season. If you remember Disenchantment, it's first 4-5 episodes were really not very good.

Regardless of that, I think basing this off of other pilots, this show can either find its rhythm or fail. Now, based off of that, I believe that this show is pretty good. It contains a lot of things that someone that is the age of the characters can relate. It's a feel-good (kind of), relatable and sometimes comedic animated show.

On the opposite side, this show can be (as much as I hate saying this word) cringe-worthy. There are a lot of jokes that really make me just kinda want to turn it off, but that's not that often.

All I'm trying to say is, I think this show has potential, however, it'll need a lot more work in order to appeal to everyone (most audiences and all of the people who gave this 1 star. Overall, 6/10.

"Duncanville" is a simple series with a simple plot. It tries to be entertaining and relatable to young people. Does it get to do it? Yes. The series has a humor that knows where to stop, and characters whose personalities you can see in yourself. But they are a bit empty sometimes. Some jokes aren't good and some topics are just unusual. The first two episodes are the best ones to me, but I think the story they present is forgotten easily some episodes later. Duncan is a funny teenager with a female voice, it's nice. The other characters are fine, but they could be working better. The plot doesn't seem to, like, exist or advance through the first season, but there's so much more to watch yet. I hope it gets better and finds its own essence, because it doesn't look so different from any other "adult" series. However, "Duncanville" is imperfect and incomplete, but it's funny as the average show you watch once in a while. It could be so much better, I hope it's just a matter of time.

It appears that every person who has one type of taste for animated shows are reviewing this one. It's not a superb show, yet, but it does the foundation to become an animation hit. The characters, while being mostly simple and nothing write home about, are witty and entertaining most of the time.

People that are complaining that there is no plot or character development are really looking in the wrong place. This is not that type of show, at least not yet it isn't. This is only the pilot.

Simply put, don't expect the next Rick and Morty or Big Mouth from this, mostly because it is neither of those two shows. It's entertaining enough to give a chance.

Honestly, I didn't find this series to be as bad as some reviews say.

The jokes are a mixed bag, some are funny, others not so much, but nothing about this series is particularly terrible.

In my opinion, Duncanville would be better if it was a down-to-earth animated sitcom (Like King of the Hill) instead of trying to be a gentler, less extreme version of Family Guy, but I guess Mike Scully can't resist including these kind of jokes in all his series.

The same thing happened in the Napoleon Dynamite cartoon, but the result is somewhat more effective here. Still, I hope the series gets better on its next season.
