Aggretsuko is kind of weird. That being said dreamy super smart eccentric isn't endgame. I really did not like his smug character. "Well why should I follow the rules of society and slightly tilt my head if I take a turn? That seems like an unnecessary hassle. I just can't pass the exam this way." That's one of the first things he said and I hated him since then. Also he had a real messiah complex. He wanted to get his license to replace the dummy driver, but still pay that guy. It's not like big companies would do similar things, if his AI replaces the workforce. He was like a silicon valley bro, mixed with an esoteric herbal tea farmer.


But yeah, this show does feel really regressive sometimes. Especially how it implies that chauvinist pigboss is actually really competent at his job and only tries to do his best. He's just a bit old fashioned and you shouldn't mind it too much! Also females can't focus on work whatsoever once they've fallen in love, amirite?

I do like the characters, but there are some underlining moral issues in that universe.

It gives money to an artist of a webcomic I've read a few times and sorta enjoyed but mostly forgotten about, so I guess it's alright in my books.

Watched season 2 of Final Space after I did not really care for season 1. It's way better, since the additional characters improve the team dynamic so much. Ashley Burch is such a great voice actor and having her and Ron Funches in there is a treat.
His character is basically an exct copy of King Shark in Harley Quinn. Trybor is a bit grating, but quite fun.

The overarching plotline feels a bit stupid and overly melodramatic, while it's basically McGuffin collection, but the character interactions makes up for it.

They better don't kill off anyone in season 3.

The third episode of Birdgirl is really quite amazing. Gillian is a great character! Mixing The devil wears prada with secret identity shenanigans is a great mix to pump out that stress.

While the first season had it's moments, this one was remarkably uninteresting. I will forget most of this in a week. It's short, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

Went through "Inside Job". It's a fun show with lots of stupid references. The main character is great. But gently caress her dad. Giving her that name was the first sign that he's an rear end in a top hat.

I started watching Final Space the other day. Didn't really like the first season that much, but so far season 2 seems way better, primarily because they toned down the main character's shtick a lot.
He's mellowed down by the strong supporting cast.

While neither of these are animated, it sounds nice.
Is it mean that I want to see a story where Rob and Ryan pump heaps of money onto that team only for it to not make a lick of difference? It's so rare to see underdog stories where the underdog doesn't outperform expectations.

Eh, it has an incredible art style, but the models and animation felt jerky. But the pure style was enough to elevate that to something good. Then again, I watched that one in cinema. I might want to give it a try on a proper monitor.

But yeah, I might play to many video games, but if there are really low slideshow framerates, where I can actually notice a pause between them I don't like it, since it just evokes a feeling of lag and graphic errors.

That effect is way more pronounced in 3d animation.

anyway, at least this makes slightly more sense now that I know it's a Scooby-Doo show and not just an unrelated Mindy Kaling animated series pitch with an existing IP slapped onto it (I had heard somewhere that none of the other Mystery Inc. characters would appear, which obviously isn't the case). still not something that needs to exist, though
More Glenn Howerton is usually a good thing.
Richard Splett Shaggy sounds like a fun time.
Constance Wu as Asian Daphne sounds weirdly enticing too.

Weirdly enough, I know all these actors except Mindy Kaling. Looking it up I have seen virtually nothing with her in it. Apparently she was in that one Sunny episode where they started selling liberal tears (what got torn anyway?) to a Republican clientele, only to end up buying a Dennis Doll which spoke into their minds.
I remember her character, but not even her face...

Turned off the new season of Inside Job half an episode in. Just wasn't feeling it.

I watched the first two episodes during a plane flight. It's good enough to continue.

Saw the rest of the season. That was actually really sweet. The main character with a dumb name is cool.

I just learned that Glen Howerton, Sam Richardson and Constance Wu play the main cast in Velma. I'm quite intrigued by that. Thise are some good comedic voices.

I know nothing about Mindy Calling, though.

I figure that show will be cancelled and erased in the middle of the second episode and anyone who saw it by this point will be forced to undergo a lobotomy, so that Zaslav is still eligible for that sweet tax write off.

Not gonna lie, I genuinely like the Velma series by now. I'm not that into the teenage relationship drama, but the absurdity of that world and the great voice cast makes a lot of jokes land which wouldn't otherwise. And they have some real deep cuts about the Scooby lore.
I wont be sad if it gets canceled, but I do enjoy it.

But I can't tell if the writing improved, or if I just adjusted to it.

I worked on a show called Captain Fall a couple years ago and it just came out on Netflix yesterday, which I don't have anymore. I never watched the animatics the whole way through but I thought some of the jokes were pretty good if anyone's interested in watching a really dark comedy.

Also does Netflix still refuse to show anything new on the front page?

Went through that. I liked it quite well. The members of the Fall family suck. But I like how beyond cartoonists evil the other guys are.

So were you involved with the bit about the two German henchmen convincing themselves that he is really good at standup and how the boss beat that guy up with the fist because they felt their earpieces were uncomfortable?
That might have been a highpoint of the show.
