Praise Petey

I think PRAISE PETEY is an excellent new addition to the comedic world. The characters are clever, the dialogue very funny, and the concept actually gets at something true to our core as a society. That we are all susceptible in some way to cult-like behavior, and that the need to follow (or be followed) is kind of intrinsic to the way we navigate society. I love the style of the animation, and I think the directing is also delightful. Anna Drezen, who was the head writer for SNL, has brought her very unique voice to this show, and I am desperate for another season to watch how they grow! There's much potential from this writing staff, and this cast of very funny voice actors! Bring on more!!!

There is nothing I love more than an adult cartoon that really understand the animated genre. "Praise Petey" is reminiscent of some of my old faves such as "Clerks: The Animated Series" and "The Critic" in its whip-smart command of the balance between a well-written script and full-tilt visual absurdity. Even with these comparisons, "Praise Petey" is like nothing else on television today. I was a big fan of Anna Drezen's writing during her tenure at SNL and continue to be as her unique voice and perspective come through brilliantly in this series. Not to mention the excellent voice performances from the likes of Annie Murphy, Amy Hill, and of course, my goddess Christine Baranski. "Praise Petey" is a must watch!

I'm really loving this show. I got the trailer recommended to me but decided to go in blind. I've watched the 4 episodes that have been released so far and it's really appealing. The art style and animation are very aesthetically pleasing and the humor is up my alley. I will admit i was worried this would be another generic adult cartoon but i feel like the humor is quite fresh. It isn't some overly negative or nihilistic drag and embraces the humor of its concept. I've seen people complain about the "satanic" elements but that just feels silly. Im worried this show won't make it to a second season, given how animation is treated nowadays. ESPECIALLY adult animation. The average consumer writes original shows off then complains when more unoriginal content is pushed out. I'd say give this a shot. Anna Drezen and her crew are doing good work. I'm looking forward to the rest of the season. It's a shame it's only 10 episodes though. Fingers crossed for a second season. If not, i'll await future works from anyone in this crew.

Don't take this show so seriously. It's chaotic, excellently casted, and the art isn't awful like so many of these types of shows. The writing is genuinely clever and satirical. It's a fun romp with a unique story: a city girl inherits a small town with a twist. Lots of self-aware and purposefully ham-fisted commentary on society and cliche shows. The art is legit cute, with more varied movements than similar pop-up shows. The characters are a lot of fun, and played very well. The colors are interested and the character, clothing, and setting design keep the eye busy. Anyway, I don't have much else to say. Here are some words. Enjoy them. I love you, bye.

The show is about a shy woman named Petey. Her estranged father dies and she inherits a cult. She lost her job and now she has to run it. The show would be fine if it wasn't for the horrible dialogue. Every 5 seconds there has to be a self aware quip. Self aware quips work best when done in moderation. I am being literal when I say this show has them every 5 seconds. In addition to being unfunny, it gives all the characters the same tone of voice. In a well written show, all the characters would talk differently similar to how real people talk differently. If this show didn't have the awful self aware dialoge I would give this show a 7. The art style looks pretty good. The character proportions are more realistic and it doesn't look Family Guy inspired.
