Universal Basic Guys

This show laughs in our faces. It's not "horrible" as the current top review suggests. It merely challenges us to find humor in places we regularly would not and dares us to be introspective. Loosen up a bit, maybe laugh, and realize none of us are perfect. I think you'll have a good time.

Incredibly unorthodox and perhaps politically dividing, there are so many things I wish this show weren't and simultaneously appreciate it for being. Again, you'll have a good time if willing to laugh at yourself.

Would have left you at paragraph 1, but the review censory committee demands that I bore you for more characters.

Awful show with awful characters and dialogue.

Family Guy, Bob's Burgers and even American Dad are smart comedies about working class families while this show is just dumb humor about a bunch of dumb people with no redeeming qualities. There isn't a likeable character in the bunch, nor does a single joke land.

I disagree with the one review that says this show is propaganda pushing Marxism and Universal Basic Income. I feel it's the opposite, showing how lazy people waste their money after receiving UBI. The message is "your tax dollars will go to idiots who will waste it on buying a monkey," not that UBI is a great thing.

I see that the series is already getting a good amount of hate and I can see why. The art style is unappealing and the jokes can be lackluster. However, there are moments that did give me chuckles and there is some emotion I felt when watching the first two episodes, so, I can tell there's good intentions. The problem is that the series is really dull most of the time and can feel rather boring. At least Krapopolis gets me more hyper active as that show had more going on, and even modern Simpsons is doing a lot with experimentation, so at least I feel something with it. UBG is just mostly restricted and playing it safe, the unappealing art style is not helping either. Being safe doesn't mean it's bad automatically though, as I stated there are still some good jokes. Plus, I can sympathize with some of the characters with their struggles. Do I recommend it though, no, as I stated it's mostly safe and doesn't have much going for it, but if you wanna have a quick laugh while looking into some characters going about their struggles, this might be the show for you.

I'm not sure what I was expecting. I read the reviews of it before I watched it, which were poor... But I figured, "how bad could it possibly be?"

It's just not good. It's not even so bad that it's good. It's just bland and uninteresting. The writers try to go for shock-value jokes but it just falls flat. Someone should tell them that it's all been done before. It's cringy, but not so cringy that you would want to hate-watch it either. I watched the whole first episode and don't remember much about it besides something about a monkey. The only reason I don't rate it 1 star is because a 1 star level of bad is at least memorable lol.

Just another show about middle aged, suburban idiots... Like I said, the premise has been done to death already. Other shows have done crude or shock humor very well. South Park, Family Guy, Rick and Morty, these are all great shows. But this one just tries to coast along behind in their wake.

This show is just Kirkland's brand Family Guy... Vaguely similar, but not nearly original enough to work. The creators are just about 20 years behind the times on the premise. Watch it or don't, it's your 20 minutes. But I doubt it will be around very long either way.

I guess folks are missing the whole point to this dimwitted hilarious animated series about dimwitted folks who do really dimwitted things because they believe that their dimwittedness is their God given right to do what they desire, regardless of the mayhem they create and the harm to fellow humans - or even what professionals and academics folks say. So basically this is taking the Mickey out of dimwits who vote, drive cars, own guns and think they know everything (from unreliable sources) about everything. At least the makers of this series treat their dimwits with love and affection of dimwitted proportions...
