HouseBroken

It seems that SO many people DEMAND animated shows to be EXACTLY what they expect, usually based on another show (Family Guy, Southpark, whatever) that they like.

Housebroken is....funny. It's not edgy, or crude or in your face. It's just standard issue, excellent voice actor funny.

You like pets and wants to see something funny, Housebroken will do. You want to force it into the mold of whatever else you liked, it probably won't.

Give it a fair-minded shot and you shouldn't be let down.

The field is wide and there's a lot of competition. But based on the the pilot, this show fills a niche: comfortable, pleasant television you can put on and relax to, chuckling occasionally. Not groundbreaking, just... non-committal and enjoyable.

Let's be honest now. It's now exhausting to watch the "must sees." Shows so intricate, you feel you need crib notes to keep everything straight; or your absolute, undivided attention. I have gotten to the point in which gritty, tension-filled, award-vying TV makes me too tired. No, I DON'T always have the emotional capacity to commit to your complex story-arc filled with flawless people and absurd budgets. My spouse refuses to speak to me for most of these pretentious epics, insisting on pausing and rewinding for missing 3 seconds.

Life. Is. Hard. It can be good too, but for the love, people. Pleasant comedy is essential. And shows that don't cause trauma after viewing are becoming my new favorite genre. I'll take watching pets in therapy any day! It's imaginative and creative.

So if that's not your thing, fine. Don't rain on Queen Lisa Kudrow for doing the Lord's work.

I love animals so I was really curious about this premise. I still went in with low expectations because apparently this show has been out for a year and I only heard of it this week.

The writing's not deep, and the animation appeared to be standard, but there was just enough material there to keep me invested. I like the jokes. Now if you're looking for something that will get you wheezing, keep searching because this show's not it. I also found myself getting attached to the characters, worrying about how things would turn out for them.

I can't explain why I like it, but it was a pleasant escape for me. Sometimes you just need a show that doesn't try to be super thought provoking. That has cute talking animals that make silly fart and pet jokes. I'm keeping the score modest because I don't see this show being for everyone, but I feel that it's still fun enough to get a score above negative.

Housebroken is funny and different in thr adult animation department. Some jokes seem a little forced. Overall, I enjoy it so far.

The show is geuinely interesting and I think people should be more open minded about it wait for more episodes and give it a chance.

The first episode went really fast it wasn't anything amazing but it wasn't horrific but at the same time it left me wanting more and it was kinda funny. It's just the pilot so maybe it will get better in the next upcoming episodes.
