Created by Natasha Allegri, art director on the previous Adventure Time, and originally uploaded to YouTube by Pendleton Ward's digital production studio Cartoon Hangover, Bee and Puppycat is a fun, comforting, and sometimes a bit mellow form of ideal escapism. Following Bee and her new friend PuppyCat, a strange creature that looks like a cat but smells like a dog, and their adventures around town, with friends, and most often doing "temp" work for an interdimensional temp agency. For anyone looking to just shut of their brain for a bit and relax, the music is superb, and of course the animation style is lovely. A very surreal watch, with 10 short episodes uploaded for free on YouTube, Netflix signed on for a second season, and there includes a "remake" of sorts of the online content into 3 condensed episodes, with the "true" season two starting at episode 4 on netflix. For those who haven't watched I'd highly recommend checking out the original youtube season first, its quite short and great, following up with what's on netflix. Short, but wrapping itself up decently well for what it was, the show has a surprising amount of depth just below its very silly surface and is definitely something I look forward to watching again on a calm rainy afternoon. If you were a fan of Pendleton's previous work (Adventure Time / Bravest Warriors) this show has similar vibes, but also certainly stands on its own as some great television. Would very much recommend.
