Krapopolis

Seems like people didn't give this show much of a chance considering how many 1-3 star reviews popped up after just the first episode or two. Yes it's not R&M or Community but damn people at least wait until after the first few episodes to leave such bad reviews.

Really this show is in the 5-7~ range IMO, parts are good and parts are bad but it does have its moments. If you like Greek mythology and goofy comedy it's entertaining at least, the setting is interesting and the style of humor does seem a bit more like Community than R&M though it shares themes with both like dysfunctional family dynamics.

Seems like the kind of show that will improve over the first couple seasons as it spends more time world building and building up the character dynamics. Wasn't sure about it during the first few episodes but it does improve and going in blind helped, if you have high expectations you'll probably be disappointed but it seems like a lot of people are being overly harsh due to it not being Rick and Morty 2.0.

Hopefully it gets another season or two and a chance to improve.

While there were a couple of zingers that earned a silly giggle from us the humor was mostly the same we've heard from most of the 'comics' doing the voiceovers before and sounded unlike they were playing a character role but playing the same tired roles they've been playing for years.

Some of Matt Berry's jokes and Richard Ayoade's dialog were mostly repeats from The I. T. Crowd or What We Do In The Shadows albeit with a mostly different cast.

While we clearly enjoy the other shows we were hoping for something different this time. I'll watch a couple more episodes to see how it develops but for now it seems very mediocre considering the stellar talent list.

Yeah, I think Rick and Morty is great, aside from the gross out episodes, and Community remains a classic. Dan Harman's bee branching out a little with some side projects, all of which seem great by me, and all of which the usual MacDonalds Szechuan Sauce fans don't like. No doubt that this show isn't one of the best ever; but it's clever with how it plays with Greek Mythology, at the same time providing a good smile or laugh every 30 seconds or so. It remind me quite a bit of Disenchantment, which isn't as good as Futurama, but because its humour, plot lines and character progression is different from R&M doesn't make it not worth a few good hours of our lives to watch. It's weird, because compared to the appalling comedies out there like the generic sofa sitcom, or the like of Big Bang Theory or Young Sheldon, which people seem to love. The Dan Harmon fans are unwilling to keep a more than half decent comedy on air with poor reviews, so it will just be cancelled, by the Networks who won't produce interesting imaginative and thought provoking shows, isn't stay with the generic sitcom that pull in the wider audience. Advertisers love the demographic this brings in, and the only way to keep 'our' stuff on air is to support it. Nope, it isn't the greatest, but it beats the majority out there by miles. Give it a go, if You know your Greek Mythology it's clever and it is funny:)

Krapopolis isn't a bad show at all actually. I'd say it's like a 6.5.

My main problem with the show is how inconsistent the quality is. You'll get good episodes like the forest party one with the wood nymphs, the evil tail, or the hydra episode, and then you'll get subpar ones like the ice week episode or the crown thief one. It's just frustrating because technically season 2 aired with the first so the second season airing right now is actually the third, so you'd think the show would be developed and already solved with the issues in the first season, which to be honest, the first season had some of the show's best episodes. But no it's just too inconsistent to be called a great show and that's the problem.

For characters, Tyrannis is just not very interesting and it's hard to care about him because he's just boring and episodes where he does shine like the evil tail one are all very predictable in the end. The most interesting characters are Stupendous and Hippocampus. They are easily the two best characters in the show and I find myself liking their stories much more than the other three characters. They're interesting, funny, and have some sort of depth to them that the other characters lack. Shlub and Deleria are alright but they're just filler characters for me in all honesty.

Also, this show relies too much on killing for its comedy which gets old after a while. I get it's a show about gods but they should change it up every now and then. All in all definitely not a bad show at all but they need to be more consistent with episode quality, especially since they are in the third season already.

I will start this by saying I don't think this is a perfect show but I did enjoy the first few episodes. A lot of people were complaining about how it doesn't measure up to Rick and Morty. A valid but pointless observation in my opinion. This isn't Rick and Morty set in the past and that's what we need. Rick and Morty was lighting in a bottle not every show is going to be a home-run from the start but there's plenty of shows that didn't have a strong start and now are phenomenal Bob's Burgers being one. I think if you just ignore Dan Harmon's name and watch it don't think about the drunk science man show and critique it for not being that show. I think you will find yourself enjoying most of the first 3 episodes at the least. Now my really big issue with it that I just couldn't seem to look past is the voice acting from Matt Berry seems a little wooden to me and can't look past it. The first episode does start a little rocky but I thought the second two were completely better and have no where to go up from there. While the episodes aren't perfect I will say they are more consistently funny than new Family Guy episodes. Long story short. ITS NOT RICK AND MORTY GET OVER IT. Berry could do better. Give it a chance I think you will find a new comfort show for humor in this comedic romp through the Age of Mythology.
