      Yeah. I saw a commercial for it yesterday. That’s all I ever heard about it.

        I always forget about commercials since I never watch TV. Then again ads are basically the same thing.

    CalArts Style + Gimmick setting = I’ll watch it in 5 years after it’s canceled when I’m stoned with 6 hours of spare time

      I don’t mind the art style per se, it’s the animation style I’m sick of. We have crazy good technology and shit is still animated like some super advanced flash animation. There’s no more emotions and intentions behind the strokes of the brush like before. The line work is just consistent and bland.

        Can’t really blame the animation style, IMO. Most of these cartoons are produced under what are essentially sweatshop conditions in South Korea, and getting fine details and real artistry can very quickly pass the point of diminish returns. Animators and creators usually have a lot more time to develop the character models and the general look of the show. If the picture from the post thumbnail is from the show, then I’m saying that it looks incredibly uninspired and lazy.

    Literally the first time I’ve ever heard of this.

    A 1.2 rating sounds bad …

      Same. But 1.2 means 1.2% of people in that age group watched the show, so it’s actually pretty high

        It’s been awhile since I watched Fox animation but I already love the show. It seems to be set in Greece around 1000-800 BCE. It features a guy trying to set up a city and a wider civilization but the greek gods keep interfering and bickering among themselves.

        Or maybe most things are reviewed using a 1-10 scale, with 1 being the worst and 10 being the best, so most people assume a low “rating” falls on the typical rating scale we’ve all used for centuries. No need to agitate your sciatica, dad.

          I thought the standard was a 1-7 scale, with 5/7 (with rice) being the highest possible score…

    Matt Berry is a one-trick pony who plays the same character in every damn show.

    And it’s hilarious.

    Like all Harmon projects this will be good for 2 to 3 seasons before be gets bored and hands it over to the B team to ruin.

    If this is not an Edna Krabapple spinoff I’m gonna be disappointed.

    This is about the broadcast? Oh so it is basically meaningless. The target audience for this show doesn’t watch broadcast tv.
