Crossing Swords

EDIT: The show throughout the season gets better with character development and even having a few genuinely heart felt moments

There are a number of lines or jokes that are just absolutely hilarious and I like the idea and premise. The main problem I have is that it's another comedy show where basically except the main character everyone is either an idiot or a irredeemable assshole.

It takes me out of it at least. What makes these things funnier and flow better imo is when you have good or capable people as well to juxipose it.

This show is immediately going to turn people off in the first 2 minutes of the first episode. Its definitely a aquired taste sorta show. I stuck around till the end for the stunning stop motion which is consistently impressive (not much of a surprise given the talent on board this project) and the juvenile humor slowly grew on me. It doesn't always hit... I'm fact I'd say most of the time it doesn't but when it does it's a pleasant surprise.

In conclusion it's not gonna change the world or anything, but if you go into knowing that you might be able to appreciate what's there.

When I started it I struggled to not shut it off because it was not enjoyable or humorous at all. I pushed through and at the end of the first episode I actually let out a chuckle. That's kind of the way the season run is. It gets funnier and more entertaining as it goes. I actually started laughing here and there more and more and actually I wanted to keep watching where at the beginning it felt more like a chore. The animation and voice acting is fantastic. The script and comedy became better with each episode. This is dirty adult humor so if you're not into that stay the F away and wtf are you doing watching this in the first place? If you're looking for something life changing? Not for you. Do you want to sit down shut off your brain, have a few chuckles, and enjoy some stupidity? For you.

This show leaves a lot to be desired in terms of comedy. But when it works, it WORKS! For the most part, the jokes don't land well, often falling flat. Though there were moments throughout that had me laughing to the point of tears. Sadly those moments are far and few between. A saving grace for this show is the beautiful and clever art style. The toy aspect that the whole show has kept pulling me coming back in. The story had a great starting off point, however; eventually the over-the-top insanity derailed the main point of the story. The hole purpose the characters served became nearly lost by the end. Also there is character development, but it is sparse. And on one final note, the voice acting is excellent, (Thankfully!) Overall this show is worth watching if you have nothing else to do. It has enough going for it as to not be a waste of time. Also if you are a Robot Chicken fan, this will scratch that itch. If there is a second season, all I wish for is higher grade comedy.

The trailer looked good, but sadly the first episode was unfunny and boring. The style is great though and works well.
