The amazing digital circus

I'm going to be completely blunt: at first, I didn't like it all that much. Never disliked it, but found it to be overrated and simply not as good as other various Youtube shows. In fact, I specifically remember my first words after watching the pilot be something along the lines of "meh, it's okay."

Now, though? I wouldn't hesitate to name this as a series I like, if not love. Each episode is a constant stream of improvement, from the emotion to the humor and even the animation. The voice-acting was always on point, but even that seemed to improve. It's certainly not for everyone, but its intended audience will enjoy every minute. Would 100% recommend at least giving it a try.

To start off, the pilot episode was incredible. The characters were all really unique and you grew to love all of them which is honestly impressive given the fact some of them don't get as much screen time as others. That's how you know care and time was put into making sure their personalities, character designs and voice actors made the audience immediately take a liking to them.

Now, the general story is not the most unique idea but it was executed so well. The world the characters live in feels so lively and colourful, as it should given the show's name, however at the same time it feels unnerving and creepy which fits perfectly with the shows more dark themes.

I would 100% recommend watching it for yourself. It mixes dark themes and comedy so well and I am praying it will get green lit for a full season.

The series is pleasant to watch, the story that the author wants to tell is going in the right direction. The characters are very well written, here for jokes - practically everyone committed to their task - I couldn't stop laughing and getting emotional with some, but at times you could catch that the series will have a punch line, each episode will describe the character - what they are struggling with and how to prevent it, help them. The concept is familiar to me - there is a person who, after putting on VR, is transported to a computer game - in this case from the 90s, and tries to get out of it. Honestly - 10/10.

With only 6 episodes, this show went from a huge shitpost, to one of the best indie shows (alongside with Lackadaisy and Murder Drones in my opinion) simply because how the episodes develop each character (even the most boring ones) if you haven´t seen this yet, give it a try the way i did, and i promise, you won´t be disappointed with this show. Nothing more to say, watch it on your own :)

This web series is very tragic and surreal at the same time. However, it does have that circus-like feel with being dragged into the crazy antics the characters get into. I really do like despite being TV-PG, the characters' swearing is censored in a creative way. There's also such a likeable cast of characters that make you want to watch this series more. However, the series was left on such a cliffhanger and I would like to know what happens next. The surreal horror makes me want to watch this more, despite not being a fan of the genre. I would recommend this to horror geeks/nerds and people who get nostalgic from looking at circuses.
