Captain Fall

This show pleasantly surprised me thinking it was going to be another schlock fest animated series that Netflix is dishing out, but I was wrong. The animation style isn't bad, and the story kept me invested so it made me curious of what will happen in the next episode. Great pacing that leads to easy binge watching. The concept is original and not another copy and paste just for the sake of it. The animation style wasn't dry or lazy. If you appreciate absurd comedy shows like Venture Bros, Rick & Morty, Archer, and South Park, you'll dig this. For sensitive viewers, you'll not like the absurd humor. Just give this show a go and see if you like it.

This show has a great animation style. The background characters actually have life to them. At the end of each episode you are left wondering what will happen next and how it will go down. Compared to most of schlock animated series that are Netflix, this one stands out as a unique one for me amognst some of the better ones. I can see why some wouldn't like this show due to how the protagonist is presented to be dry or some of the humor in it might not click with them. Overall, I was invested from start to finish with this Netflix animated series. I'd say give this a go and see if you like it.

Netflix originals are hit or miss, very hit miss and these days usually on the miss. But this time Netflix has a seriously good hit that most people seem to agree on. Captain Fall is hilarious. From the premise to the characters to the very dark adult humor, it all just works. It is ridiculous, it is crude, but it is so dang funny. The writing is actually clever, and I dont mean like Big Bang theory let's make a math joke clever but clever in the sense that the schemes this criminal trafficking enterprise gets more ridiculous with each passing episode. And yet it works.

Is this show for everyone? No. But if you liked Archer or Pacific Heat and other animated shows in that venue, then check this out.

Recently I feel like a lot of the animated shows (Especially on Netflix) are just somewhat unoriginal or just boring. And I thought this would not be different, however I was gladly mistaken. Captain fall excels at having an engaging storyline and fun characters. Which I am surprised about as from the first episode I thought that fall looked like a boring uninspired character, however as the show progressed I began to like him more and more. Unlike in other animated TV shows like 'Farzar' where I just hated the protagonist more and more. As for the tone and theme it's awesome and feels like Archer, which is one of my all time favourites. It's also worth mentioning that it is not super funny considering it's a comedy however that does not matter as the story is engaging enough. And it did have a couple of laugh out loud moments. All in all it's a great show and I highly recommend watching it.

Well I did not see this coming.

I can't really explain what it is. It is not laugh-out-loud funny. But it was a cathartic experience for me. If you are tired of the mind-numbing idiocy all around the world, and would want to have a beer with Dan Harmon and the ghost of George Carlin as they brutally mock them all, well, this show gets you partway there.

Bloody-handed Russian oligarchs, shameless oil sheikhs, clueless Scandinavians, insufferable middle-aged married couples that you hate on TV, none are safe.... from savage mockery.

I expect the average viewers will not be able to appreciate this. I hope Netflix knew that when they signed up for this show, and keep new seasons coming regardless.
