People seem annoyed that the show is a musical and it uses the same animation as Bob's Burgers.
Firstly, it was made by one of the creators of Bob's Burgers so it seems obvious to me they would use the same animation style, all of Matt Groening's shows (Simpsons, Futurama, Disenchantment) all use the same animation style and I don't know why it should even be an issue anyway.
Secondly, it is very clearly a musical but this still surprises people. If you strongly dislike musicals the show isn't for you and that's okay but if you don't mind them then I'd say give it a go. It's a fun show with great characters, a supportive loving family, Daveed Diggs and some great stories. I believe this show deserves a much higher rating than the one it has. I guess people just feel very strongly about singing...?
The musical element is an absolute stand out, the casting is perfect, the episodic stories are good as well as the park vs development villain storyline that ties it together. Smooth quality animation and natural dialogue, with all the silly quirkiness you'd expect from a show animated like Bob's Burgers. It's early but I feel confident to recommend the watch.
Some people were turned off from the show simply because it is a musical. That's like saying I would have liked fast and furious if not for all the cars. The musical is a neat part of the structure of the show, and the songs are both clever in their lyrics and consistent with general musical theater tones. The show is clever and funny and unique. And while it might not speak to an array of people who just have no penchant for song in the show, for those that do, this is done well.
The creator of Bob's Burgers, Loren Bouchard, has created a brand new show made exclusively for Apple TV+!

The plot is pretty interesting, but in true musical fashion, half of each episode is spent singing about things that don't further the plot along. If you are into musicals, this show might be for you, but if you are looking for something more like Bob's Burgers, you are better off checking out The Great North instead.
