Inside Job

A lot attention to detail, very creative and daring with the conspiracies theories. A lot of the critics pointing out similarities with Rick and Morty, but I don't necessarily view that as a bad thing. If anything, that would make it more appealing to whomever likes this kind of cartoon.

All in all, I love the one-liners and the humour of this show. Being more or less aware of most of the conspiracies that are made fun of, it's great that some controversial aspects are tackled with witty jokes.

Having reviewed this after watching both Season 1 and 2, I can see it improved greatly. Can only hope future seasons will continue that trend.

I'll admit, I did watch R&M as the seasons aired but I wouldn't associate myself with that show. This on the other hand, holy crap.

I mean holy crap.

Season 1 Part 1 walked so Part 2 could run. In as small a time frame as a dozen episodes you get more character development than all of R&M. I feel baffled that I didn't pick this up sooner, it feels unreal.

The voice actors killed it. Lizzy Caplan as Reagan and Adam Scott as Ron, the supporting cast as well, they killed it. I have a ton of respect for them.

The animation is there when it needs to be. It's not really an action show, but fight scenes and such are clearly choreographed and detailed. I like it, and the characters are all distinct and likeable.

Now the real stuff. The characters and their story are seriously amazing. Rick and Morty and Inside Job share a common theme: They explore relationships and conflicts through the lens of fiction. Reagan has to deal with so much stuff that it's insane. And it isn't relatable for the sake of being relatable, Reagan is her own character and isn't a self insert. Her dad being a sociopathic tryhard of a genius who doesn't care to love his own daughter, her workplace being a constant crapstorm that heats up every minute, it's unreal how much crap she has to sort through. But it never gets stale, you always feel like the characters change in some way.

Shoutout to Shion Takeuchi who is really the main person responsible for this amazing show, she really deserves more credit.

I watched Inside Job because it was endorsed and produced by Alex Hirsch, the creator of Gravity Falls. GF is one of my favorite shows of all time, and this show definitely carried over some of that show's energy.

I think this show is being judged too harshly, but it definitely has flaws. I would like to talk about the positive aspects.

Of course, the best character in the show is Raegan. She's a very complex, interesting, and likeable character who changes and evolves. If the show didn't have Raegan, it wouldn't be great.

The show gets better as it goes along, to the point of being very emotional and powerful by the end of the second season.

Give it a chance!

Worth a watch, just hope they don't cancel this like they did Hoops. Netflix is a little light on the adult animation, and this is a step in the right direction.

At first glance "Inside Job" can be passed as another "Rick and Morty" wannabe, but it was surprisingly funny. The animation is good with tons of hidden details throughout and while some characters are very one dimensional others are very interesting and fun to watch. It's a little rough around the edges, but "Inside Job" is an overall enjoyable show.
