I really enjoyed Moonbase 8

I went in being a big fan of all three main actors and got exactly what I thought I'd get; a well written and acted, funny, relatable comedy. It's not going to be everyone's cup of tea but I love the interaction sand chemistry between the main three. It's evident that they are/were friends off set.

King of awkward

Fred Armisen is his usual silly, awkward yet biting self in this premium cable show. The NASA moonbase backdrop is just another vehicle for quirky deadpan interactions among veteran comedic actors and their guests. While this may not be the funniest show out there, the topic is light and fun and ends on the right note after 6 episodes. I also found it delightful to see Adam Lambert take a stab at some acting, and he did a good job.

situation humour formula with simulated moonbase as the setting

In the beginning, before I watched an episode, I was a tad confused what this new series was about. A documentary about NASA simulation moonbases in the Arizona? A Science Fiction drama set in the future? A Big Brother reality? The lack of marketing didn't help. If don't take Moonbase 8 serious, and enjoy the ride of chaotic situations faced by the three remaining space wannabes, it is actually fascinatingly humorous. Imagine putting three comedians as diverse eccentric-scripted characters inside a locked room and record what happens and that is Moonbase 8.

I think the show is hilarious

A lot of people seem to not like the show, I guess I have a different sense of humor than most. I found this show very funny. It's subtle and dry comedy, but I really was laughing out loud. Hopefully more people feel the way I do, would love a second season.

I'm glad I didn't dismiss this based on poor ratings

If you know anything about the 3 main actors in this show, you should know what to expect, and if you like these guys and their sense of humor in their other roles, I think you'll enjoy this show. I really liked it and think it deserves better ratings than it has, but I can see how it may not be for everyone.
