Close Enough

The show keeps reminding you that yey, you grew up with regular show, now you have hair in your balls, you can listen to no no words, social comentary and look at explicit sex instead of vague references to Pops PP (yes, I'm still traumatized about that episode) still great and a lot of fun so... yeah give it a try

This show is funny 80 percent of the time and hilarious rest of the time. Its episodes plots are amazing.

In early 2017, Regular Show finally came to conclusion on Cartoon Network and around the summer of 2017, JG Quintel made a new cartoon...for adults! Close Enough! It was originally planned to air on TBS, but for reasons it has been delayed lots of times, which led the show into production hell. But thanks to HBO Max, we won't have to worry anymore. HBO Max is the new home for Close Enough, I've watched the first episode (from the Annecy International Animated Film Festival on June 15, 2020) and it was pretty good. The humor, the characters, the writing were all good. Close Enough is one of those cartoons that truly fits very well in the box of adult animation, yet the only problem with this show is the 11 minute run, I was expecting it to be at least a 25 minute run, but hey, that's Close Enough. Get it?! I consider this show to be one of my favorites and I will recommend anyone to watch it and I also can't wait for more episodes on HBO Max. I give Close Enough a 9.5/10

I mean it's not a bad show and it's pretty funny but I still kind of miss regular show but I understand stuff has to change and just light reebly and stinky, first it becomes a kid show and later on want to make a Adult show. Still not bad, not bad. Good comedy and getting Memes made from them everyday!

I'm going to be in the minority of reviewers (and viewers) here I think by not having seen Quintel's Regular Show. So it wasn't until Close Enough that I first encountered his blend of magical surralism wrapped in acute observation.

The format is basically that of a classical nineties kids' cartoon - a half-hour show cut into two separate narratives (with a few exceptions) this leaves it very little room to faff around and the dizzying speed at which each segment ramps up the strangeness is genuinely breathtaking. The cost of all this brevity means that the central cast can feel a little undefined but Close Enough admirably straddles a refreshing line between caricature and observation that doesn't feel too mean or judgemental.

As someone fairly close to Quintel's age myself it's strangely uncanny to see a television cartoon so precisely aimed at my generation - which no doubt will alienate many and date it severely in years to come but there's an oddly engrossing indulgence to the focus. Close Enough isn't perfect but with its charming tangents and its deft lack of meanness it's... C-

It's.... clo...

You get the picture.
