Where to begin talking about this show? Let's start with the animation is... for lack of a better term, is just horrible. I know that is what they are going for, but when Adult Swim needs to learn that "it's so bad it's good!" Idea can only be used so many times before you are kicking the dead horse.

The story is just a mess and I sit there thinking about how dumb and pointless it is. Some guy just goes around playing tennis and some detective looking dude is just poking around.

Best way to sum up the whole show is, a hand full of guys sitting in a room drunk and high as hell just coming up with random things to make a semi coherent story and they just keep slapping random things on top one after the other. This show is just a and obnoxious drug trip.

If you don't enjoy hallucinogens or adult swim humor(they usually go hand in hand) this will probably just confuse you and make you angry.

But if you do, then oh boy, you are in for a treat.

We actually had to pause this half way through and cool down with an episode of Blue Planet, we were laughing constantly, Simonet is a genius!

If you like things like Tim and Eric's Bedtime Stories, Xavier: Renegade Angel, and Superjail, you'll probably love this. The writing is incongruous, the plot is all over the place, and the art style is hideous in the best of ways.

The first season is simply flawless in how flawed it is, maintaining a healthy self awareness throughout. You can see that time and love went into this project, and you'll eventually fall in love with all of the low-res jpeg characters. I love the music video breaks, which always serve the plot quite adeptly, I love the bizarre pacing and goofy, nonsensical writing, and despite the irreverant and parodic nature of it all, the ending was satisfying and meaningful. I love this show.

The second season lost all the charm, in my opinion, but it's not too bad.

9.4? Stop it. THIS is what happens when people create things in a vacuum surrounded by their friends. There's no one around them to tell them honestly that what they're making simply...isn't...funny. And this show is definitely not. Of course, the animation is poor, but you're not expecting art. It's Adult Swim and we've seen worse. The problem is the show isn't funny, isn't entertaining, and doesn't really have a purpose except for attempting to be intentionally weird. It doesn't work. How does THIS get a steady time slot???

I like the main actor and general show vibe but that hand character sounds like they picked up a random homeless person in Atlanta to be ironic or non-sequitur. It's not working folks. I kind of see what you're trying to do with the ironic bad acting but that character either doesn't get it or isn't capable of performing the vibe. Change it and your show will have a chance since it fits the AS purview but that actor is so bad Ian's awkward in the not good way it's literally making me dislike the show and I was a fan of the tennis season.
