Didn't think this was going to be for me but I was SO wrong! I looooove this show, the cast, the people who make it, just *kiss*. The storylines, the scenes, the e v e r t h i n g. Thank you to everyone who had a hand in making it, I appreciate this work of art and I sincerely mean it 🙂

To give it a 10 it would need to have atleast 20min episodes and a stronger running plot.

This is an amazing, fun, witty, entertaining, rollercoaster ride, crazy, funny to the highest, weird as all get out, and mind bending at the same time.The "psychedelic" dream sequences are nuts! I like how there are different guests in each episode, but I wish each show was more than just a few minutes each. If you like Dr. Who with a crazy, nutty, odd, dorky twist, then this is a must watch for you. You will love this show.

This is close to the best show I've seen since perhaps Firefly. The only one which edges it out would be The Expanse. I really like the nostalgic feel to it, even though it's still set in a modern timeline the various blends this show takes on is fantastic.

I don't expect most people to "get" this show, it takes a particularly warped mind to appreciate the art & sci-fi blend. It's right up my alley, and I expect the show to have a cult following for many years after it's inevitably cancelled. Hopefully we get a few more seasons yet.

Dream Corp is unlike anything on Adult Swim, which is saying a lot. The show tries to do a lot in 11 minutes, although it's billed as a comedy first. It can have a lot of fun with characters during their animated 'dream therapy', i.e. watching a conservative old lady let loose and give the bird to her family members. The comedy during live-action sequences isn't as impressive: save for secretary Joey who is hilarious by nature, the staff members don't make memorable characters.

However the meat of the show is psychedelic and nightmarish. The rotoscoped animation is great, rotoscoping is a really under-appreciated technique. Plus the live-action set has great lighting and feels very unique. And on top of all this Dream Corp tries to express some of the patients' deeper issues. The problem is that these issues can be pretty ambiguous, and the abstract animation does little to help. When a patient is diagnosed effectively, the insane dream sequences make sense, it's rewarding, and it makes me want to re-watch the episode straight away. Other times it's just played for laughs, like how a woman is almost cured of OCD before being tranquilized from off- screen, which is obviously not rewarding.

Overall though I think the show is a winner. The rotating cast are all memorable, the structure of each episode is great and the mix of realism and absurd-ism works surprisingly well. If the show were half an hour it would make a bit more sense, but late-night TV isn't really supposed to make sense.
