Strange Planet

Id never heard of the comics or artist before this show, i had just watched this show. From my perspective, the show is great. Its a new fresh look on how other life could interpret this world and its down right funny. I love it and i hope for more episodes!

With that being said everyone who is comparing these to the comics is not giving the artist room to be creative. You have to realize all the changes that were made behind the scenes of our favorite tv shows that air today. Changes we dont even know about that made the show great in the end. Im sorry its not your version of perfect, but my outsider looking in view saw nothing wrong with this great show. It has room to grow into something great, lets not beat it down at the start.

I had no solid expectations when starting the show since although I'm a longtime enjoyer of the comics, I was very intrigued as to how well the format would translate into a whopping 24 minutes per episode show. The veredict: Not very well. HOWEVER, that does not make it a bad show. Pros: The storylines are sweet and down to earth (ironic ik), the characters are likeable, the backgrounds are pretty and the animation works well enough (smoothly animated rigs) and it even made me smile a few times. Cons: It can get long and slightly confusing since characters are not given names and their appearances outside of clothing items are all the same. Also the joke about them using literal descriptions for everyday things gets old quick and is also strangely inconsistent (Alcohol = Mild Poison but Restaurant = Restaurant?) plus some of the wordings had me seriously scratching my head at times (took me a while to understand that fabric tubes meant socks).

Something that's noticeably lost from the comics is the naivete they gave off. The funny aliens were often discovering new earthly concepts and hence their literal alien descriptions and feelings towards them made more sense, while here it's just an alternate earth that works just about the same except humans are aliens, some animals have three eyes and they use funny words for some things.

Overall this really felt like an Apple TV original to me, same vibe as say, Central Park in that very relaxed and human tone, something nice to have on in the background while doing something else but that might feel overly long if sat down to watch. I am curious as to if and how the stories will continue to interconnect and if a consistent main character or characters will be set.

I love this show! To begin, I have never heard of the comic before this show. It is because of Dan Harmon's attachment to Nathan W. Pyle's creation that I was introduced. This new series is entertaining, heartwarming, and funny. The animation is unique, and the voices are provided by some awesome actors. Personally, I enjoy watching shows that have some amazing episodes, and that also contain a few episodes that are just okay. It's the combinations of these episodes that make a series a fulfilling roller coaster ride, rather than an exploding short burst that becomes forgettable sooner than later. Strange Planet has the potential to last long into the future, and into our hearts. I'm only three episodes into the show, however, I'm a fan. The show is imperfect. Maybe, that's the takeaway. We're all imperfect and strange, but we should enjoy Strange Planet for what it is anyway. I look forward to watching more as the series progresses! Gratitude!

I am shocked at how well this show holds up. Originally, I wasn't sure how the comic would translate. While things are a little different, I say this tv show is a perfect adaption of the comics.

Is it perfect? No. Nameless characters is weird, and the speech pattern can be hard to get used to, but it doesn't take long to get the flow of the show. Plus, how would the show exist without the strange speech pattern?

The art and animation is beautiful and there are some effects that baffle me. Once again, an amazing adaption.

Overall, I'm impressed. I'll be on top of watching every episode, and I already hope for a season 2.

I'm sorry but people just really don't understand how to review something. Is this show good? No not really. I love the cartoon and all it's genius. But this show just doesn't adapt from the comic. They're also just not staying true to the comic. Too much regular dialogue like a human would have. I think what's going in is a bad combination of it being boring, storylines are just kind of random, and again it poorly adapted. I'm noticing here on episode 3, a repeat character. If they continue to do this, we might get some theme and actually develop some substance. However if they don't get some consistency, I'm good to stop soon. Just don't give it 1 star, that means it offended you to your core.
