Can't Stop

Yes, I like the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Yes, I like the song. And hell yes, I love Love, Death & Robots.

But what the hell was that? What was the point of this episode? It would've worked better as a music video by them than as a full episode in this series. That was just a waste of time for me.

Sure, the visuals and animations looked amazing, no doubt about that. But the entire episode was just one single song. That has nothing to do with Love, Death & Robots in my opinion. The episode felt pointless, without any meaning.

Fine, let the band members appear in an episode, but at least make it one that has some kind of storyline. Not just a music video.

Thanks, but no thanks, no matter how great the concert may have been.

While I'm adittedly not a massive RHCP fan, I do like some of their output. The problem here isn't an issue of liking or disliking their work. It's that this episode was misguided from the very start. It offered us nothing that a team of animators working for a music video programming network couldn't have conceptualized in a half-hour discussion with the Chili's legal team over a serving of late in some boardroom. It's basically advertising on an MTV scale. It was pointless in the context of "Love, Death & Robots" since, unless Flea dropped dead of a heroin overdose just as it faded to black, it had none of those thing.

For what it was, it was fine, and I'm sure hardcore RHCP fans will enjoy it. It just made no sense as a LDR episode.

As much as I love RHCP I didn't want this. I want to watch Love Death and Robots for the story telling and the animations behind it. If I wanted to watch a concert I'd go to YouTube, only reason why I gave 2 stars is for my love of RHCP, honestly it feels like a waste of an episode, all they did was just animate the concert and gave it to us as if YouTube doesn't exist or CD's or Vinyls don't exist. If they wanted a vanity project or something they could have use the animation style with a different story. Did they do this because they ran out of stories or what? Side note I'm more mad at the produces than at RHCP.

This was such an incredibly lazy episode. No imagination, a wasted effort. What was the point of it? Was there a clever hidden meaning that I failed to understand somehow?

No idea who signed off on that as the first episode but after 3 years off screen, they couldn't have done a worse reintroduction. If that was my first time watching this show it would've probably been the last time too. Absolute worst episode of the show so far!

Seriously though, a Red Hot Chili Peppers puppet music video? Save that for YouTube! Luckily therse episodes are so short or I probably would've turned it off at this point to avoid wasting my time.

I really enjoy the Red Hot chilli peppers but why is this even an episode? It really doesn't fit with the overall themes the show brings up and other than just liking this song it doesn't really do anything for me. This could just be a cool music video which it basically is. For that reason, I just cannot rate it very high because it really just shouldn't be here at all. If you like the band, I definitely say give it a watch tho.

P. S. David Fincher please stop spending your time on this if you can travel back in time so that you can work on another movie. I understand that this could be a pretty fun getaway that's easy but even if it only took a month that is one month too long.
