Krapopolis

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.

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.

Just look how many of these bad reviews give ridiculously over the top score and/or clearly have an agenda.

If they're not even talking about shows that have little to nothing to do with this one.

One of them even admits watching 5 mere minutes of it before deciding to quit and give it a 1/10.

One other cries something about cultural appropriation like the most unhinged alt-right bozo you could find on the internet.

I'm only on episode 5, but I'm really enjoying it so far.

It's really funny and pretty clever, too.

Definetly a Dan Harmon show. And I suspect, like most great shows in the making, it hasn't even found its pace yet.

I feel like too many people have too high of expectations of this show, seeing as it came from the mind of Dan Harmon, one of the creators and the main writer for Rick and Morty. But here's the part that blows my mind: It's a LOT like Rick and Morty. It carries the same quick-witted humor and social/familial dilemmas, all while having fun reinventing the origins of many aspects to mankind, with a heavy Greek myth twist.

It starts out a bit off, to be honest. I felt like the modern speech infused with ancient Greek times was a tad annoying. I feared this show was going to try too hard, and just end up flopping. It had that atmosphere the first episode.

I am glad I stuck through it because it only took me through the second episode to really start getting into it. A lot of the fun has to do with putting fun spins on Greek gods. It exposes the Greek gods for what they really are: just like mortal humans, only with the gift of immortality. They're just as egocentric, crooked, zany, and erratic as mankind. They have family problems. They are NOT all-knowing, and they can have feelings.

Let's just take a moment to mention how awesome Matt Berry and Richard Ayoade are. I might be biased as a huge "The IT Crowd" fan, but those guys are just great. And I'm fast becoming a huge fan of the character Hippocampus, for a fish he's really got some huge balls. The way he deals with characters like Prometheus, or even his own step-mom. Pretty badass.

There is a lot of subtle humor too. Silly humor, cynicism, dark humor, irony, you know, the fun stuff. Like Deliria forcing two mortals to fan her while basking next to large fire lanterns. Or how little the lives of mortals are valued, by both gods and humans (and monsters). It's a good show, give it a try if you like adult animation and Greek mythology.

I was really looking forward to this because of Dan Harmons other work (Rick and Morty, Community). Despite wanting and expecting to like it, I did not. I'm not sure why, the drawings, the voce acting, the absurdity of some of the characters, I don't know, but I was disappointed. I continued watching and started to really enjoy it. The later episodes didn't change, but I feel like I was more open to letting the show be the show and got over my expectations. I then rewatched the beginning episodes with my gf (Greek myth geek), and she loved it from the start, and I enjoyed and laughed more than when I first watched them. It's funny, creative, enjoy the voices now, and not as absurd after learning a little Greek. Mythology.
