This series is simply hilarious. It's not perfect and often drifts into silly comedy. But if you like (the old) Family Guy episodes and are generally a fan of animated adult humor, you should definitely give this series a closer look. The characters and their interactions with each other are just brilliant. Rip and Saltine are particularly noteworthy. Rip seems like Nicolas Cage and his outbursts of anger are awesome. And Saltine is a lovable, nerdy character on the one hand, but on the other hand she's also quick-witted and smart. Mitra Jouhari voices Saltine almost perfectly and her voice acting never seems forced or unbelievable. The setting of the series is also fresh and different (apart from the more than obvious references to Indiana Jones or National Treasure): archaeologists are the new pop stars who are celebrated in the news and on the red carpet, and museums are the must-have for billionaires to show off their wealth.
I can't understand the many 1 ratings. Sure, the humor is often crude, there are lots of jokes about sex or masturbation, and there's constant swearing. Some scenes are also pretty questionable if you don't see them for what they are: over the top comedy. For example, when Rip gives a baby a beating, although the baby isn't actually a baby, thus putting the scene in a different moral light (which Rip also philosophizes about in detail in this scene). As an educated adult, however, you should be able to put this kind of humor into a broader context and recognize it as subtle social criticism - or just as stupid humor.
The series definitely has potential and I'm already looking forward to a second season. Maybe the creators will then iron out some of the flaws from the first season. For example, I find some of the characters rather less appealing, such as Quail Eegan, who is something between Elon Musk and Taylor Swift: multi-billionaire and archaeology pop star (in the broad sense). For me he just doesn't look authentic. And the story with the puff people was a bit too childish. The same goes for the yetis. The series initially gave the impression that it could be a normal society that just happens to celebrate archaeologists. Yetis and gnomes just don't fit into that picture.
