    I am not sure why this exists, or how it’s going to be but I am fine with it existing cause…even if I wasn’t I can’t stop it so…eh! All things aside, I was talking with my gal recently about how I think Mike Judge is really good at making humanistic characters. Even if they’re absolutely whacko jacko, I think this might be the most humanistic adult cartoon I can think of to be honest. I was watching Common Side Effect, and his character on there was a guy you loved to hate. Which I didn’t really think would come of a corporate schlub. There’s also a lot of the heart of Americana in this show. For good or for bad. I don’t agree with all the politics, but it does make me laugh. I know a lot of queers who’d never watch this show, because it’s very traditionalist and white-centric. I actually really like it though. I’ll give this a go when it comes out, but I will say I still don’t get WHY it exists.

      I think it’s a perfect time to roll this out. It’s clear by the title time is progressing which should enable a lot of new interesting story arcs.

      If the writers can keep the story about the characters and maintain their humanity and sincere individual perspectives feeling real, it’ll be a great show
