It's possible that the show has even lover budget than later seasons of Futurama. In Futurama commentaries they mention that they had to reduce the writing staff for money reasons. Disenchantment feels like they had a short time to collect scripts from individual writers for a season and ship to Korea to animate. And it's probably cheaper to have a longer recording session with the same actor than bringing a bunch of actors for couple hours on different days.

I hate Richard Ayoede being in anything as a voice actor because he sounds so completely himself that it takes me out of it.

On the other hand Matt Berry who also sound just like himself (be it a pig or sword) manages to be the best part of show.

Personally I'm comparing it to Bobs Burgers.

Disenchantment is not the best but it's not as bad as Bobs Burgers.

It's just bafflingly bad. Like it has an amazing pedigree but did everyone in the writers room just forget what jokes are?
In the later season Futurama commentaries they talk how due to budget their writing room was getting smaller and smaller. Disenchantment feels like it's one writer per episode and they had to write each episode in a couple of hours.

Lampshading how awful the Honking is does not make continued Honking ok.

Honestly the honking was the reason I would have been perfectly happy if Bender was written out of Futurama.
