Recursos Humanos

I never watched Big Mouth so I have nothing to compare this to, but this is a funny and actually somewhat deep show on some levels. If you are a person who doesn't like crude humor (Very sexual in nature) this is NOT for you, and you shouldn't watch it and whine about it. STAY AWAY, you have been warned. I had fun with it.

I have always loved Big Mouth, but Human Resources is truly an excellent follow-up. Despite a somewhat rough start, the show really finds it's footing by the end, and makes for quite an unexpectedly emotional ride. I cried so hard watching episodes 8 and 9, both of which were absolutely fantastic episodes. I enjoyed the callbacks to the original show as well, especially with Natalie (the trans character from season 4) who I was dying to see more of, and of course John Mulaney as Andrew. The show is also just really funny at times too, and yes crude, but that'd to be expected of course. In the end, it may not satisfy everyone, but I really enjoyed Human Resources and am looking forward to see more in the future.

This concept makes a lot of sense to me. I like the franchise and now that the kids have mostly completed their character arcs, the show should go on but now focusing on the most fascinating part: the world building.

I love all the personifications of our emotional needs and this vision of how every person has a teem of spirits to help them navigate the world. The joke is partly that each of these spirits have their own issues to work out if you hadn't noticed.

I wonder if it all mightn't be better if the main focus were the lives of a few humans and the Magic Team was a fun visualization of our neuropsychology but I suppose we already got that with Big Mouth.

A bit hit and miss: they recycle some basic ideas with more than a little smugness, some of which I have reviewed in detail. We have passed the point in which defending new Mothers who don't like their children is subversive, people!

I liked the inclusion of characters glimpsed in BM, like that transexual kid and her family.

Ultimately this show, though not exactly a masterpiece or a sure thing, did have a lot of personality, humor and eventually a lot of pathos.

I would say if you lost interest in Big Mouth before the 5th season then do not bother otherwise, go in with realistic expectations.

The low scores from people who only watched 1-2 episodes are understandable but man, once you let the world building finish, it gets really good. Tackles some really intense and emotional content. Season 2 really hit some serious issues and handled them with charm and humor. The episodes dealing with grief and autism in particular were really wonderful. The sex stuff does come up often, but they do say humans think about sex every 8 seconds or so, soooo...... The show really finds it's footing in episode 4 season 1 and just gets better and better as it moves on. The voice cast was kind of spectacular too. I didn't realize they got so many big names as well.

I was not convinced at first, expecting the confused pubescent children to show up since they were the ones to supply the laughs. But once you get into the nitty-gritty of it and understand the roles of the hormonal and emotional monsters, you realize that this animated series deals with serious adult issues, from motherhood to dementia, all in good humor (without receiving a slap in the face for it)...
