Good cartoon show
The Awesomes is a fun, offbeat take on the superhero genre with a mix of irreverent humor, quirky characters, and engaging storylines. Created by Seth Meyers and Mike Shoemaker, the show balances satire with genuine character development, making it more than just a parody. The voice cast, featuring Meyers, Ike Barinholtz, and Kenan Thompson, brings a lot of charm and energy to the series.
While the animation style is simple and might not appeal to everyone, the writing makes up for it with witty dialogue and creative superhero antics. Some jokes land better than others, and the show takes a little time to find its footing, but overall, it's an enjoyable watch for fans of comedic superhero stories. Not groundbreaking, but definitely a solid and underrated animated series.

The show is great, stop looking for comparisons that aren't there.
The Awesomes are great! I don't know why but, people who tend to write negative reviews about shows are often sad little people who are disappointed that their favorite shows are no longer interesting or a pale imitations of themselves. Well, my thoughts are don't take issue with something new because your old dried up crusty shows haven't covered the same topics the new shows are covering. Comparing this to Family Guy is so embarrassing because they really have nothing in common besides writers named Seth, former cast members of Mad TV and being animated sitcoms. No the fact is that the show lacks a lot in common with many of these shows the other reviewers have mentioned, so if I were you, I'd disregard sad old men who can't make an objective analysis of new shows because they're still stuck on shows that have lost their mojo or been canceled. The Awesomes are actually quite addictive. I think the fact that the show focused a good amount of time of some the formation process of the team and its rivals, is something you don't often see but, they have fun in the process. Many of the other shows often, have awkward or unexplained transitions that further their plots, The Awesomes plot is generally revealed in more naturally textured plot lines that mirror funny, yet, exaggerated real life situations. The show isn't exactly predictable, if you ask me but, it does maintain a certain level of character structure that keeps each character from just spitting out random jokes that don't suit the personalities built into the show. Altogether The Awesomes manage a good balance of animated and superhero surrealism, comedic quality and actual characters that aren't being offered by many shows that readily change the characters up just to fit whatever jokes pop into the writers heads.
PLEASE BRING IT BACK!!! :) :'( :) :'(

A fun show, please give it a look.
I liked that this show is trying to be it's own thing, It's edgy but does not overdue it, like The Simpsons, Family Guy, South Park,American Dad to name a few. Most certainly not for kids, even though it's not overly vulgar, the show is for adults. basically spoofing Justice League, The Avengers, and X-Men. The humor mostly on the superhero foul ups, and the funny issues of the characters. I'm surprised that this is not on Adult Swim, it's a very funny show, and enjoyable. It's proof you don't have to count on gross out gags to be funny. That's what animated shows started to depend on lately. The animation is pretty descent, not high art. I really hope this will be on a while.
Pretty decent, worth a watch.
The show has a great cast, and a great premise. I'd say it's relatively enjoyable to watch, not necessarily funny, but enjoyable nonetheless. Its main issues are in a few character's voice acting and a few sections of writing. Although Malocchio had very strong acting, Prock's is far too monotonous and dull. Just unbelievably cringe- inucing for the first season. It gets progressively less so as the series progresses, but it is an issue that persists throughout the entire series in some capacity. Ultimately, its most prominent issue lies in the actual action sequences. The show seems like it's supposed to be satirical, but it actually tries to be serious in the fight sequences. It comes across as forced, and just generally childish in comparison to most of the show. However, when it does attempt to stick by satire, it is far stronger. In summary, the show is enjoyable, but it get's a fair bit better as the series progresses. I wouldn't call it "great", but it's fun, and worth a watch.
