Just watched the first ep. The Rick and Morty comparisons are fair but this time it's Rick and Tomboy Rick. She's pretty fun.

She's fucking great.
It's like Tina Fey in 30 Rock. Everyone makes fun of her in the show for being ugly and a slob and weird, but she's actually cute and funny and that makes up for whatever minor flaw the show blows out of proportion.

Pretty much this.

Carrying the show though.

Yup. I thought it was a good Rick and Morty clone. Sometimes better than it deserves to be.

It's pretty under the radar. I thought it was fine. Nothing special, but I was entertained by it. I don't think I would re-watch it.

It's better than Solar Opposites that's for sure. Only good thing about that show was the wall

It was ok. Started a little weak, got better. I'll watch season 2.

So far, this is greater than the sum of its creators. Never watched Gravity Falls or other cartoons they've worked on, but you can tell they're glad to be free of the Disney/Nick/CN ecosystem that had tied their hands.

Reagan is adorable. Don't really mind if she's a bit of a Takeuchi self-insert. I guess you kinda earn it when you've already been through the above and get to create a Netflix hit at such a young age.

This is scratching the same itch as Star Trek Lower Decks. Reminds me of the dynamic between Mariner and Boimler.

Also can't unhear Rand as Slater from Archer.

7 eps in. This is really fantastic.

The gang is starting to grow on me. Reagan's swings between sociopathic bum and cleaning up nicely are hilarious. Probably the only thing she learned from her father.

My only complaint is that Reagan and the red haired guy were basically the only characters on the show. Everyone else just sort of exists to make jokes. But Reagan really is great.

Gravity Falls got away with some pretty surprising stuff considering the channel it was on. You should give it a watch. Though its creator is only lightly connected to Inside Job. Shion Takeuchi is the showrunner here, she had some writing credits on GF, though.

They're one-dimensional but they have so much material to work with.

Yeah, it might've been better if there was at least 1 episode dedicated to the side characters (because they're a lot of fun as well) but Reagan and Brett are still really good characters. My favorite is Magic Mike especially at that one scene when he says, "oh thank goodness, I thought I was both homophobic and racist" to Reagan's mom marrying to herself.

i was unaware of the connections people were drawing to rick and morty before watching it and was just confused by them after because there's very little of that in it. maybe if you only watched the first episode you could get that

that episode and the second one as well are probably the weakest of the bunch, but after those two it's a fun ride. the james bond riff episode especially was really funny

I gotta see this. The animation is so smooth for a 2d tv show like this.

I mean her dad is a complete Rick knockoff. Let's be real here.
