Boots has done it again, immediately after starting the show you can tell that this is something special. The music, the writing, the set design, all comes together perfectly to set up another surreal world from boots riley.
Just a perfect execution of an amazing idea, the practical effects are genuinely jaw dropping. Was immediately holding my stomach from laughing so hard from the first episode.
Haven't seen a show in ages that has this much obvious care and attention put into it.
Truly radical, truly funny. Could not stop laughing.
Been telling just about everyone i know to watch it
Blown away, check it out.

Nice concepts, and a strong cast. Excellent production design and special effects. I like the cartoon quality of several characters and the idea that it might touch upon some facets of superhero stuff, but not dive all the way in. I've watched only two episodes, yet I can tell that I would have preferred this story delivered as a movie. Like "Stranger Things" and various SciFi series and movies coming out over the last decade, it's become really trendy to produce a far-fetched fantasy story, with quirky lead characters who struggle (or sometimes thrive) in odd circumstances. The two actors cast as his parents are committed, but their attitudes are one-dimensional... this is a writing problem, and not the actors' fault. The jury's out whether I will finish this season.
The industrial strength superhero is a well established part of modern day media while the folk heroes that preceded them are mostly forgotten.
This show is the black Paul Bunyan, man.of the community vs the industrial superhero, enforcer of the corporate state. Of course the show's Paul Bunyan is not equipped for this showdown even with his supporting team of Oakland, CA neighborhood X-Kids who are more concerned with using their powers to do their jobs, score, and help others impoverished by the system.
While the Paul Bunyan folk tale is a celebration of the boundless opportunity and natural resources of the earlier American experience (at least for some people), this version exists in a decaying landscape of fast food, desperation, and death.
It's weird, surreal and sometimes preachy, but definitely worth a watch.

Brilliant concept, provocative writing and laser focused direction from Boots Riley. He manages to paint another colorful dystopia that once again highlights the evils of capitalism by flipping concepts on their head and putting a mirror up to show you the world we live in. I love that someone is touching on the concept of giants in American history I feel like there is a lot of new clippings like that you can still find through the years of giant remains being found across the world. Who knows but it's an interesting concept and dope that Boots touched on that. Mike Epps and the whole cast is great as well. Looking forward to anything Boots Riley does which hopefully includes a new The Coup album.
Is it the constant relateability? I'm not sure but so many movies and shows that are coming of age are well done. To be fair there are plenty of bad ones too but this is not one of them. Boots riley plays with our creature comforts that we're exposed to every day. He wants you to see the familiarity as what's wrong but at the same time he celebrates it. I'm only a couple episodes in but what's clear is the lead actors are what make this show. Sure it's got some weird characters. If you didn't like soery to bother you check this out as it's a step up for sure. My parents liked the first episode but got lost on the second. It's a show about a giant it's not grounded in reality. But the ties to reality keep the heart of it.
