Krapopolis

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.

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.

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:)

I see some of the reviews on here that are between 1-3 stars which is just extreme. Lets be real, this show is not a great show. Its not that funny, the story is not engaging and I couldn't relate, connect or care for any of the characters in this show. I gave it a shot and watched 2 episodes.

Its not a terrible show and does have some entertainment value. It certainly does not deserve some of the low ratings I am seeing on here. That being said I find myself giving this show a 5/10 as its watchable, has some level of story/plot but its just not a good one. The comedy managed to get a few 'half-smiles' from me but that's about it. Even if Matt Berry is doing the voice work, it doesn't really matter when the writing is not good. I mean you could have Brad Pit doing voice work on the show, but if the writing is not good it won't matter right?

I can't really relate this show to any current toons being produced. Its not clever, rude and funny like Rick and Morty. Its not dumb, funny and over the top like the Simpsons. I suppose its unique in the fact that it doesn't fit with anything out there, but when its a boring generic un-funny cartoon with poor writing I suppose it might match up with other shows that were cancelled.

My recommendation: If you are bored and have nothing else to watch this show is a good way to kill some time as it DOES have some entertainment value. Just go in with low expectations and you will be ok. 5/10.

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.
