Royal Crackers

Last two episodes of this show were great and amusing! The start of the show had a very slow onset and I agree it was rather boring. Then it took a turn and we got to see more of the personalities of the characters and the plot unfolded into surreal bowl of pleasant chaos. The animation has a very minimalistic style which is not usual for this decade anymore and I personally enjoy to see this "low effort animation". It really is a matter of taste! The scenes are often repetitive with zero change almost like it's a loop but being put in the right moment they came out as hilarious. Curious how the season 2 will turn out.

I don't understand the level of hate I've seen in the reviews. When I saw the commercials I wasn't a huge fan of the art style, and the jokes seemed pretty cookie cutter. But then I put on the show and I was impressed with their willingness to "go for it" and not play it totally safe. The delivery from the voice cast is the most favors when it comes to the humor, because yes a fair amount of the jokes are pretty cliche, but the delivery from the brothers is really where this show is at its best. While I don't really think it's quite unique enough to stand out in any significant way yet, I think it's fairly solid in its foundation and I had some genuine laughs that honestly surprised me. I think a lot of the 1/10 reviews are really unjust and a lot of that has to do with the mediocre art direction. Not the best adult animation out there, but certainly not terrible. 1/10 reviews are reserved for absolute corporate trainwrecks, like Chicago Party Aunt, which this is not. 6-7/10, better than "Meh" but nothing game changing.

I have no problem guaranteeing any negative reviews come from someone who was in a bad mood and gave up minutes in, or hates their life in general.

This show is ridiculously funny. If you actually like comedy and are down for some absurd jokes, you'll love it.

Incredible voice casting. Comedy fans will recognize most characters just by their voice. After checking the cast list you'll recognize even more.

Episode 5 is one of the best episodes of adult animation I've ever seen. Beyond hilarious, Oscars should be given to genius like this.

So stop hating because you don't understand how to have fun. Do your best to enjoy your life. This show will help.

All I feel the need to say is that the show is worthy of your time despite the rough exterior. This feels like something Adult Swim would have put out in it's earliest days while also embracing the vulnerability a lot of more modern comedies aren't afraid to have. Whether it be Arrested Development, Bob's Burgers, Bojack Horseman, or Home Movies, this show is never afraid to wear it's influences proudly. And why wouldn't it? Royal Crackers is as every bit familiar as it is inspired. For every scene that feels like comedic homage, there are multiple scenes in this show that simply don't have an equivalent anywhere else (anyone who has seen the season 1 finale will understand what I mean). If you are a fan of classic Adult Swim, THIS is a show you need to check out. I am eager for season 2.

Royal Crackers is pretty damn good imo. Idk, talking about every day topics in an absurdist manner, commenting on the antiquated nature our society has with old industry, also, it's funny! Not everything works and I think the flash animation kind of messed with people, like because it isn't pretty it isn't good. Theo is hilarious, there are real people like him and they are kind of strange shapes, as if the universe is laughing at itself. The old industry is hinted at throughout the show like one of the patriarch's friends and in flashbacks etc. Stebe? That's funny dumb humor that I like. The Deb character has a sincerity and irony to her and it is great, the kid? Hilarious, somehow I have had some, remember now some moments relatable to him. The patriarch is funny too.
