Moonbeam City

Off the bat YES it's like an Archer clone. But c'mon, how many of those do you see around? Secondly, it's like Archer Vice, which in my opinion was their best season, but this one is Archer Vice, literally, figuratively on crack, without pants, or care, eating a hotdog dripping onto a Carl's fat stomach, may he rest in peace with Meatwad.

This show is extremely funny. Will they keep it up? Only time will tell like every single comedy ever made.

First episode is very strong, clearly another show that gives no F**********s. Rob Lowe fit absolutely perfectly and quite obviously as Dazzle Novak. But I think the crown jewel here is Will Forte's Rad Cunningham. This guy was glorious as usual.

Anyone who likes Archer should quiet down, as they are on a downhill slope at the moment, until they bring back Archer Vice, this will do. Plus it's great to have options!

Hi my name is Josh an I recently started watching Moonbeam City about a week ago. I'll be honest I thought this would be a awful idiotic show that only last about 10 episodes and that it was just a spin off of Ugly Americans. But once again I've judged a book by its cover or in this case show. At first I thought it would be stupid because it look like one of those TV shows about a neo futuristic city whose protagonist was very weird.Honestly the show is pretty good, but I feel like it's the type of show you would see on Adult swim than Comedy Central. Anyway, for the people who have seen the commercials, trailers, or even read my comment an our curious about the show I recommend it but if you don't like the first episodes try the next ones they're all good it just depends on your opinion. The overall plot is hilarious because it involves "Dazzle Novak" the top cop in the Moonbeam Police Force whose is narcissistic and incompetent at his job but is a funny protagonist when he parties, fights, and holds raves. He always in competition with his Rival Rad and cursed out by his Police Chief Pizazz Miller. I really appreciate how interesting the show is with their advance technology, constant parties, sexual comedy, and the constant hazing of Rad. I personally like all the episodes except for #4 but that's just my personal opinion, however it was cool that Patrick Warburton guest star.

I read a lot of reviews about this show. Different websites, different authors, but each of them has a core idea: Moonbeam City is an Archer clone and it's not funny. I'm addressing all of you who think so. What the hell are you thinking? Where are those similarities to Archer? I'll answer for you. Where are none.

Let's start with the most important component of these shows. Humor.

Humor in Archer based mainly on dialog flows, relationship between people and various spy movies cliché's. Archer has very little of visual gags and lack of visual humor at all. That's not an issue, though. Archer keeps realism bar on a sensible level. I would say, Archer has English humor.

Moonbeam city humor is complete opposite. It doesn't give a damn about relationships nor dialogs. It entertains us with absurd situations, mad people blathering senseless pathos and logic from 80- s movies. We laugh about one-line phrases covered in tons of out of place pseudo- pathos, rather than diаlog swordplay. Moonbeam city knows nothing about realism. I say, it has American humor.

Next elements are not as relevant as humor, so I'll keep it short:

Atmosphere: Archer has an office atmosphere. Colleagues in a confined space. Place changes, yeah (ISIS office, Mansion, Airship, Train), and we observe communication between well known people.

Moonbeam city has Wild Night atmosphere. Never at the same spot, introducing new characters each episode, beautiful sunsets and neon nights.

Characters: Archer - Office workers. Moonbeam City - police dorks.

Based on: Archer - Spy movies (mostly James Bond) Moonbeam City - 80's movies.

Where are similarities? What makes Moonbeam city being a clone of Archer? Jerky Cool Male Lead? Then half of marvel movies are clones of each others.

Moonbeam city is funny, when you don't expect same type of humor as from Archer. Chill, will ya?

I watched it because of the band Night Club. It's kinda funny. It's a nice show to watch once and turn your brain off to. A way to distract yourself from your own existential crises.

The characters are bland and flat. Dazzle is the pretentious jock. Pizazz Miller is like Cuddy from House M. D. or Jan from The Office. Chrysalis is the every-man. Rad is the conformist "non-conformist".

It's understandable that it wasn't renewed for a second season. It's impossible for there to be any meaningful overarching plot. Don't go into it expecting something grand and thought provoking. It's something to pick up and put away after you're done with it.

I really adore this show. Not only the artwork but it is actually funny. The voice cast and the characters are wonderful. Especially Rad, who is has to be my favorite from the show. Each episode they have aired so far, it always put a smile on my face.

This show really does deserves a second season. Not because I want one but to explain more about not only the series itself but we know a lot about the background of all the characters except for Rad. We need to see more of his back-story.

To be honest, I find it a lot better than Archer and I like Archer as well.
