Digman!

If you liked the idea of national treasurer with Nicholas Cage, this is basically an knock off with Andy Samberg playing an exaggerated version of Nicholas cage. It is a pretty silly show but each episode plays office historical artifact and some type of silliness and jokes regarding A+. You pretty much know exactly what you are getting based on that description, surprised anyone is shocked in the reviews.

Pretty consistent with any type of the knee Samberg humor, pretty good voice were pretty silly and pretty funny overall. Great he with some Estrace and emotions overall. And good for Andy Samberg for not breaking Nicholas cage character at any point.

Well shortly after my review of Oddballs the Netflix series, I finally got what I was looking for afterall. Digman takes notes from Danger Mouse 2015, The Loud House and Buddy Thunderstruck and acts as a done-right version of Scaredy Squirrel. The characters actually have arcs and motives for their actions and are justified by who they are as the series progresses.

The adventures that Rip and Saltine go through feel like actual adventures and have a unique comedy twist for each one. Hopefully, this one would last more than 2 seasons because it THAT good a series.

BTW, Saltine is easily the best character as she's basically Sid Chang.

The first episode, it didn't really appeal to me. I thought it was going to have cruel or stupid humor, and be offensive, as so many cartoons now days are. And don't get me wrong, it kind of does have cruel and slightly offensive humor.

It isn't stupid though, which is a good thing. There is character motives and development. It's good to see a show with this quality. The characters actually have a reason to do the things they do, rather than just forced for the plot.

The show is about an archeologist and his assistant. In this world the archs are like celebrities. There is a subplot where the main guy is responsible for his girlfriend's death, while being betrayed by his previous assistant. Anyways, it's a comical version of Indiana Jones or Romancing the Stone, treasure hunt type adventures.

The comedy is pretty good. It can be hit-or-miss. But there are so many jokes, some of them can't help but land. The talkinng is very fast, with like 10 jokes per second. Lol

I really like the female assistant. Her voice really has a Melissa Galsky (Home Movies) quality. I thought it was her, and had to look her up, to realize it wasn't. Anyways, I loved her in Home Movies, and this girl acts and sounds like her.

All in all, I recommend this show. It isn't super good or even really memorable. It is entertaining though, and even rewatchable. I've rewatched most of the episodes, multiple times. Though the episodes are self contained, there's also an overarching story. I am excited to see where it goes. I think this show has a future. Give it a chance. Though, I do recommend watching at least a couple episodes before writing it off. It took a couple, for me to get int it.

This series is simply hilarious. It's not perfect and often drifts into silly comedy. But if you like (the old) Family Guy episodes and are generally a fan of animated adult humor, you should definitely give this series a closer look. The characters and their interactions with each other are just brilliant. Rip and Saltine are particularly noteworthy. Rip seems like Nicolas Cage and his outbursts of anger are awesome. And Saltine is a lovable, nerdy character on the one hand, but on the other hand she's also quick-witted and smart. Mitra Jouhari voices Saltine almost perfectly and her voice acting never seems forced or unbelievable. The setting of the series is also fresh and different (apart from the more than obvious references to Indiana Jones or National Treasure): archaeologists are the new pop stars who are celebrated in the news and on the red carpet, and museums are the must-have for billionaires to show off their wealth.

I can't understand the many 1 ratings. Sure, the humor is often crude, there are lots of jokes about sex or masturbation, and there's constant swearing. Some scenes are also pretty questionable if you don't see them for what they are: over the top comedy. For example, when Rip gives a baby a beating, although the baby isn't actually a baby, thus putting the scene in a different moral light (which Rip also philosophizes about in detail in this scene). As an educated adult, however, you should be able to put this kind of humor into a broader context and recognize it as subtle social criticism - or just as stupid humor.

The series definitely has potential and I'm already looking forward to a second season. Maybe the creators will then iron out some of the flaws from the first season. For example, I find some of the characters rather less appealing, such as Quail Eegan, who is something between Elon Musk and Taylor Swift: multi-billionaire and archaeology pop star (in the broad sense). For me he just doesn't look authentic. And the story with the puff people was a bit too childish. The same goes for the yetis. The series initially gave the impression that it could be a normal society that just happens to celebrate archaeologists. Yetis and gnomes just don't fit into that picture.

The show is hilarious. Joke after joke, the writing is so good. Y'all sleepin on this for real. Tim Meadows always brings humor and life to whom ever he voices. Despite Andy Samberg producing and voicing the main character, he sounds like Nicholas Cage which is even more hilarious. If you enjoyed National treasure and Indiana Jones you'll like this show for sure, it's an all around great watch. Not sure where all the hate is coming from, it's like half the adults who watch adult cartoons don't even know what's funny. So if you're reading this thinking Andy Samberg is gonna ruin it for you, think again. So FUNNY!
