Strange Planet (2023– )
3/10
Misses the point of the comic
9 August 2023
The comic that this originates from depicts the aliens coming to Earth and getting accustomed to things that we humans consider normal, and putting the minor human grievances/annoyances we experience in our day-to-day lives in very literal matter-of-fact ways. In short, it's aliens experiencing the most mundane things to us as unusual to them.

In this adaptation, the aliens are on their own world experiencing things that they are accustomed to already. They just speak in literal and unusual ways, but this is not the reflection of their inexperience as it should be from the comics. It completely misses the point of the originals, and isn't any funnier than any other mediocre animated series. I'll still watch the rest of the first season to see if it gets better, but as of now it doesn't seem worth bothering with.
