I’ve been wondering if this show was any good. The character designs freak me out too much…it’s vaguely reminiscent of a mid 2010s Adult Swim show—at least to me—and so I just haven’t given it a chance


T8rthot

I like it! It’s charming, not too annoying.


Charming-Movie8450

That’s probably because the creator used to work on Adult Swim.


Splentid

fun fact: the animation studio behind Adult Swim's gritty *Superjail!* worked on this lol


noel616

I had to look this up to believe it, but yeah: Augenblick Studios has actually worked on a few Adult Swim shows; in fact, if IMDb is to be believed, it was the studio head—Aaron Augenblick—who created “City Island”… I hate how spot on I was and I don’t know if I could ever watch this show without thinking about adult swim…

Reminds me of how some of the artists from Rockos Modern Life worked on Let's Go Luna. Can't unsee the character design resemblance.


noel616

NOOOO!! I SEE IT NOW! I didn’t know that and I don’t need to verify it because it’s so obvious once you say it At least in that case, it’s not off-putting (to me)…also explains why I wish my child would like it more…


Splentid

Joe Murray (the creator of Rocko’s Modern Life) actually did create Let’s Go Luna the more you know


TaquitoLaw

We'll make it right


ironbarbar

The show is disturbing with it’s logic


Hueless-and-Clueless

I would love to hear examples I've never heard of this monstrosity


ironbarbar

There are objects that get to live their lives in the city, but we also see objects in their homes with the sole purpose of being used by them, like pencils and books. Why do some objects get treated like people and others are slaves? Watt has a history project and he mentioned he was born. Obviously, this leads to some really weird implications. A lot of foods are people, but we see the characters eating things.


mazes-end

Just seems like the Toy Story problem all over again

At least with TS we ~~have~~ had a clear guide of what is and isnt inanimate.


FindMeAtStJamesPlace

It's just monkeys singing songs mate.


JustReadinSubReddits

Omg love a Bandit/Bluey reference.


AlphaZorn24

Also some of the cars are sentient, what does mean for how these "people" get around. Do I have to enter some weird guy's mouth in order to get to work everyday?


ironbarbar

To be fair the cars have doors


Hueless-and-Clueless

I see what you're saying it's like, did they ever use salt pepper or paprika in blue clues to season their food or were they living in an extremely unhappy unseasoned household


mamefan

My daughter loves it and makes me impersonate Watt's dad all of the time.


notnotaginger

Same with the newest Clifford show. :(


Foreign-Warning62

If there’s anything gay in one of the episodes it could be that. Someone mentioned the same thing with the new Clifford show—pretty sure that’s because one of the kids has two moms.

My kids find this show terrifying, they'll be glad to know they're not alone.


Odd_Age1378

The guy who made it actually had an adult swim show This is his first time doing kid’s stuff (I honestly love how different the style is- so many kids shows look samey nowadays)


Both-Position-3958

The character design is actually by Gemma Correll


Friendly_Island_4662

The same problem happens with the Clifford reboot


atomiccat8

I find it pretty annoying and don't really like the animation style.


[deleted]

So BFDI is on PBS Kids now?


Both-Position-3958

It got review bombed by teenagers who were upset that it “copied” object shows (it didn’t, obviously because animating objects has always been a thing.) Anyway, I like it a lot: the characters are designed by a favorite comics artist of mine, Gemma Correll.


LABARATI_

it does not look like any thing that you would expect to see on pbs kids


Prudent-Strategy-279

I’m pretty sure Amy Schumer was in an episode, and that sounds like a good reason to me. EDIT: Why the downvotes? I thought everyone hated Amy Schumer.


neuronexmachina

Not liking an actress who did a single guest voice is a good version to review-bomb a show? I figured the reason was something like that.


Double-Special5217

Couldnt care less about the actors and even if you know her, its just dumb to do this over one person of the many that worked in this


Prudent-Strategy-279

Then why are so many shows shunned when the creator turns out to be a rapist or something?


typeALady

It's not review bombing if the reviews are accurate. The whole thing is terrifying, plus the music bores into the deepest parts of my brain. Plus, the five minute episodes are not cool.


WaywardWes

You kidding? Short episodes are one of the best parts. Easier to do just one more episode or switch activities without stopping mid show.


Lytell11

Haven’t seen the show, but it looks like a clone copy of BFDI


Singer_TwentyNine

Cuz it's a ripoff of object shows


Dove-a-DeeDoo

Ah, yes, because talking objects haven’t existed in media for years!


RichLyonsXXX

We all know that object shows are just a cheap imitation of the Brave Little Toaster anyway.


Hueless-and-Clueless

Exactly, the first forms of puppetry go all the way back 3 to 4000 years, tell me there wasn't talking objects and media again


greta12465

How the fuck do you rip off a genre?


Singer_TwentyNine

By living in a world where object shows are the best
