The Great North

So far I've seen the first and second episode. I'll be honest at first I was feeling meh about it. But after the second episode, I'm looking forward to the next one. This show is witty and definitely has a few laughs. I appreciate that they tried to make the show inclusive and it doesnt feel overdone. If you're open to a new show, give it a try.

This show is actually pretty funny. You can't compare it to bob's. I've laughed a lot. Like laughed out loud. Give this show a chance.

Despite the A list cast the first 10 episodes are hit and miss. It isn't really edgy or boundary pushing (yet) but it has it moments. I think one thing the writers did well was the charector creation. If the show lasts for 5 years + they have alot to work with. For instance the single dad thing, think of all the crazy/eccentric/plain funny relationships he can have. Remember aminated charectors are generally perpetually stuck in time so the more flexible the better.

One charector who isn't working at all IMO is Moon Tobin. He seems like he is suppose to be the offspring of Louise from BB and Stewie from FG (both really funny). Louise is probably my favorite animated charector period. Unfortunatly the charector comes off extremely derivative and even awkward at times.

A lot of promise here. Hopefully the show can find its groove in season 2.

It's one episode folks. Don't be so quick to mouse this future hit. It's off to a funny start. Every see the first seasons of The Office? Parks and Rec? Everything has to find it's way in thru the woods. Stellar cast, great writers and original concept. A great humorous escape from the less than great Southern Hemisphere we find ourselves in.

The first episode was hard to get into, but from there it got better and better. I could really tell the show had the same writer's as Bob's Burgers because it was funny, while the characters still had a loving relationship with each other.

I enjoy Bob's Burgers more, but that show has had more time to grow, and I really feel this show has really great potential. I really love the single Dad approach, because that's not often seen in media, and I love the fact there's an openly gay family member who isn't the butt of the joke. It's all sweet and loving, problems happen of course. But they all love each other.
