It's not perfect. Don't expect intelligent writing or deep characters. Just accept it's a goofy show, good for some laughs and chuckles! It's not gonna be for everyone, but I think it's worth a shot
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.
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.

Like other reviews, if you stick with it, it keeps getting better. I dig it!
