    Summary

    Reviewers say 'The Second Best Hospital in the Galaxy' presents a fresh sci-fi medical drama with a focus on mental health. The animation and world-building are lauded, yet humor quality divides opinions. Voice acting is generally praised, though some find it lacking. Pacing and storytelling receive mixed feedback, with some appreciating randomness and others seeking more coherence. The space hospital setting offers a novel twist on familiar themes, but execution varies among reviewers.

    My New Favorite Show

    From witty humor to amazing character designs I really enjoyed this show. It ticked all the boxes I was looking for. There's very relatable jokes and obvious shared quirks that only multi-year friendships would obtain.

    I see a lot of people saying it's misandrist? To address this, It's truly not. There are no jokes about men in a negative manner, this show's humor balances on the outlandish possibilities of far future hospital technology and practices. It had plenty of source material to joke about and world build with, so much so that it didn't need to rely on low blows. If you're going into it afraid it'll hit at men, I promise it does not.

    The premise is as unique as a sci-fi show can hope to be, centering on issues that are known to us today. Such as anxiety, relationship issues, strained familial and coworker relationships. All of this within the context of limitless possibilities, creates recognizable problems with unachievable solutions and hilarious consequences.

    I don't often care for adult animations anymore but

    I usually enjoy Bob's Burger, Disenchantment, Futurama, South Park, The Boondocks, The Simpsons, and Solar Opposites. I'm sharing what Adult Animations I like so you can decide if you want to read my review or not based on my usual taste of these types of shows.

    I have been obsessed with Natasha Lyonne for years and enjoy how the main character she voice acts for has the same crazy hair as her (probably overlooked by some people.) You can tell she voices other characters but I don't mind because she could probably play the entire cast and I would be down.

    If you're curious on why it's called the second best it is because of the illegeal practices they do at their hospital which makes makes it second best because they do get the job done just not by the book.

    Anyways I don't care too often on adult animations but I really enjoyed this one but as I said up top I love Natasha and I'm going to add Keke Palmer.

    I can see how some of the reviews took it as "men are bad or dumb" I don't really know how since Dr. Klak likes other women, the other Dr. Sleech has commitment issues, and the Chief Surgeon is a male who is dedicated to his job. There is one male character named Matt who can come off as dumb at first but the more you watch the show the more you can tell he just isn't some idiot who stocks vending machines, he has more layers to his character.

    If you ever experienced having a best friend in your early 20's that you use to do a lot of dumb stuff with, hurt each others feelings at some point, and just had some of your formative years together this show can easily be for you.

    Not perfect but its good

    The show is very very horny and some of the storylines definitely needed a bit more time in the oven

    The main characters are likeable but their arcs seem a bit all over the place

    The show tackles anxiety and workplace sexual relationships and the stress of day to day life as an alien doc

    The jokes are very hit and miss but the characters are decently likeable especially the bird bro

    I definitely feel like the continuity of the plot lines with the worm guys a bit weird with his later moment kinda contradicting his previous actions

    The shows at least worth watching 2 episodes but i finished the whole series at once because i enjoyed it enough to watch it while paying full attention but not enough to savour it over a week or so of one episode a day

    Its a doc show like house or greys but its aliens.

    Three Dimensional Characters, Relatable Story

    I think this is way better than Rick and Morty, and I love Rick and Morty.

    This show is a science fantasy LSD trip with fantastic three dimensional characters, relatable friendships and relationships alike, and over the top diversity that actually makes sense for an alien centric show.

    I love Sleech and Klak and their friendship, and I love Plowp's personality and I find him so relatable. The portayal of Klak's relationship with her mom is done so well it really hits home.

    I couldn't stop myself from binge watching this show. If you like Solar Opposites, Rick and Morty, or adult animation in general, then you'll like this show for sure. Unless of course, you're a misogynist or a homophobe. Btw, there's no mention of anything misandrist in the show. That's a straight up lie to review bomb this. And the voice acting is fantastic, a great professional cast is behind these characters.

    Need a season 2!

    Took two or three episodes for the world building to slow down and the plot building to pick up, but thats any show with a complex and first-of-its-kind world like this one! You'll be in the stride of the show and, frankly, totally sucked into it by episode 3 or 4. This show balances comedy and serious topics (anxiety, family, grief) quite well. The show is bolstered by its alien setting, allowing the viewer to be captivated not only by the intriguing and complex plots, but also by the fantastical scenarios and beautifully animated settings. Speaking of the setting, I really appreciate how the shoe never explains it's world, but rather takes it as truth. It allows you to be instantly comfortable in this new world as a viewer.
