...that was awful, truly awful. Two episodes, 42 minutes and I laughed once. You can only think someone said to Dan Harmon, any idea for a show? And he replied, I dunno, ancient Greece or something maybe? And that is the full extent of his collaboration. This is as far away from R & M as you could get; there's no edge, no humour and nothing remotely clever about it. Is this what happens when you go mainstream? There is one amazing thing however and that is how Richard Ayoade has managed to transfer his usual woodeness and lack of comical talent into a cartoon character - he has created a drawing that is actually a bad actor! That takes some doing. Not than anyone else with the exception of Hannah Waddingham seems at all interested in what they are reading/portraying. This is a very disappointing show. I won't be watching any further episodes, it just isn't funny.
