just finished inside job, i think it was good but not great but i'm happy that it got renewed. the style was derivative but the animation itself was really impressive at times and the writing was solid all around. Reagan a cute!
goddamn is her dad fricked up though
did you guys like it?

I really enjoy it, Reagan's dad is funny but also and butthole.
>did you guys like it?
It was ok. the 2 main characters were pretty good but the side characters were forgettable for the most part. Robotus was neat and I hope they use him more in season 2.
>Robotus was neat
Now that's an understatement if I ever saw one. ROBOTUS was a frickin' BEAST.
Also share some fan art.
i don't think any one member of the team aside from brett was developed or got any serious character moments, but i appreciated them conceptually.
maybe i don't watch enough shows, but it was cool that the protagonist had a team of underlings that worked for them. is that common? it felt like a change of pace from when the hero has to do everything themselves.
I can't really think of any of the top of my head.
>they did it to Chris Chan
Lol I wonder if anyone else here remembers the thread this fanart is depicting.
oh my god is this about guy
It is and also some anon having a literal meltdown.

what does she see?
You, anon.
me?
really really really better than expected
the 3rd Gravity Falls season imo
i'm pretty sure this is a common theory but i seriously doubt JR really got disappeared. he told oprah to take the wrong elevator and he could have easily faked that video and is probably a new member of the robes.
i wonder if that's the main reason i liked it. just gender swap dipper and mabel and you're halfway there. although that complicates things because i want reagan and brett to smash
Andre was the weakest character of the group imo, wish they didn't make him a walking cliche but the rest of the gang kind of point that out in Reagan's fake funeral so I can't fault them too much.
Wish we saw more Gigi
Sex with Reagan.
realistically what's her body count?
they could have combined myc with andre and lost very little, the only thing he did that myc couldn't was point out racial stereotypes in 80's town. gigi was cool though, and i don't usually like that archetype
>they could have combined myc with andre and lost very little
Pretty much yeah.
As for Gigi, I did enjoy the character, but she was definitely underutilized in Season 1A. I don't think she even got a single arc to call her own outside of her news reporter stint in the '80s episode.
This show is frustrating because all the premises are good but the writing is just really phoned in and almost feels like they wrote a first draft and didn't think over how to improve it. The 80's one especially bothered me.
>entire premise is them going to a town stuck in the 80s and being nostalgic about it, and the joke is that the people in the town are nostalgic for the 50s
>only throw that joke in at the very end instead of just having the town be as obnoxious about 50s nostalgia as brett is about 80s nostalgia and would've helped drive the point about it being a cope way better
everything feels like they just have to explaint he joke or go for the most one note take on it when even a little bit more time in the oven could've let them be clever and fun and have the show stand out a lot more instead of just being kinda mid waifu bait.
>realistically what's her body count?
At least one.
Above 5 below 10
Will robo regan be relevant in season 2?
robussy
there are a bunch of loose threads hanging around
>flat earth guy in the hollow earth
>buzz aldrin flies off
>robo reagan not recovered
i can imagine them building up some sort of endgame
I can see the flat-earth guy and robo-regan coming back, but what could they do with buzz aldrin?
it has really strong main characters and garbage side characters
If they don't have an episode in which Reagan gets pregnant, it will be a complete waste.
Only if the episode ends with a miscarriage/abortion.
Somebody is salty.
Deadass, a lot of b***hes out here really do be like that tho. fr fr no cap
i don't like post partum depression for reagan, she has a higher baseline of suffering as is.
got it. works for me because that just means more episodes!
IMO they should go the Futurama route and have her become a parent by cloning. It would feel in-character, means there doesn't have to be a boyfriend character (I'm team platonic Reagan and Brett) and it means you can have a kid old enough for Reagan to have an compelling relationship with without doing an extremely disruptive time-skip. Mom Reagan definitely has a lot of potential for good plot.
No. Gaslighting is shit.
This. The glowies in the show aren't pure evil.
Reagan is love
not my reagan. nose ain't big enough
How about this one?
What is it with Hirsch and big nosed women?
Reagan is life
Based anon maintaining quality control
Good show. I predict her dad created her for some specific reason, like that butter fetching robot from Rick and Morty. She may also have a lost brother.
>I predict her dad created her for some specific reason
He did, job security
better. this was a good fake death outfit.
>his proficiency
oh i didn't catch that! the implications of a twin or an older brother are interesting.
He should be older. The date doesn't fit Randy or Reagan, but an older brother could be possible.
Would be nice if this was further explored or even hinted at by the end of Season 1B, but at least the Season 2 confirmation guarantees we'll get some answers eventually.
what's this about 1a and 1b? it was advertised on netflix's youtube channel as season 2, is that not what's coming out next?
No, Netflix split the first season into two parts. For marketing purposes they pretend it's a second season. That's why Disenchanted's two seasons are presented as four.
Yeah that's why the very deliberately call it "part 2" r
ather than "season 2"
(reagan is cute and only for brett!)
got it. how are disenchanted, solar opposites, regular show human version, etc, by the way? i've been staying away from "adult animation" but i really liked this.
I like Disenchanted. Haven't seen any of the other shows. Have you seen Arcane?
haven't, but there are plenty of threads and art so it's attracted a fanbase. i just don't really care about league outside of K/DA
It's best if you know nothing about the game or the lore. That's how I watched it. It's great.
You really want to see Reagan as a mother? She can only be worse than her mother.
i'll add arcane to the list
yo i need the reagan dancing webm stat
Disenchanted was boring and unfunny.
Solar Opposites was obnoxious and unfunny.
I haven't seen Close Enough, but it looks pretty meh.
Disenchantment was a massive letdown because it wasn't funny, most of the prominent characters aside from King Zøg weren't interesting, and for a serialized cartoon, the plot kept running around in circles every season. This was made even more disappointing knowing it came from some of the same crew on Futurama.
Solar Opposites is a little shaky in some areas, but it's overall a fun sci-fi comedy. Carries over that same problem Rick and Morty's developed where graphic violence and dismemberment is used as a substitute for actual jokes, only it's ramped up to 11 here. The aliens are likable tho and they somehow make for a better dysfunctional family than the Smiths do nowadays. Most people will only talk about the overarching subplot with THE WALL, and while I think it's really cool, I'm just as engaged with whatever stupid shit the aliens are up to each episode. I recommend it.
Close Enough isn't too impressive visually or story-wise, but the character dynamics are fun, and there've been some truly funny jokes over the course of these three seasons so far. It really is just Regular Show For Adults, but I don't feel the writers overdo it with the lack of restraints that come with making an adult cartoon. I wouldn't say the setting or characters are quite as solid as Mordecai, Rigby, and the rest of the Park groundskeepers tho. The main couple is cute, their kid has her moments, Alex is the breakout star, and Bridgette can be hit-or-miss. Worth a watch overall.
Inside Job is still the strongest in the end, even with the kinks it still needs to work out with its main cast.
i appreciate the in-depth takes here. based on what you said i'd probably check out close enough for what sounds like some comfy sitcom stuff. are there any other adult animation shows worth shouting out?
Family guy
Tuca & Bertie is really fricking solid. I love the characters, I love the way their friendships and romantic relationships are picked apart, and the show's got some of the most lively visuals in mainstream adult cartoons. It's not just BoJack 2.0. If anything, watch it for Speckle. He's so great.
Central Park isn't very funny, but it's a decent feel-good cartoon with some gorgeous bits of animation and lots of catchy songs. I watch it for the parents and the villains. The kids are shit.
Duncanville's not the most amazing thing, but it's easily the funniest animated sitcom on right now. I'm sure you've already gotten recommended Primal and Invincible. I'm a fan of both. And I actually kind of liked Chicago Party Aunt.
It's weird, Roiland gave Korvo the same voice as Rick and while they do share some similarities they also are very different. Korvo actually cares about stuff and wants people to like him for one.
>Inside Job is still the strongest in the end
Not even close. It's cast and humor is much much weaker than Solar Opposites and Close Enough (I notice how most of the praise in this thread had nothing to do with its humor or cast just the chemistry between the two leads) and I don't give a frick about lore especially lore in adult cartoons so that aspect means nothing to me.
Check again: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDPJQgxegiU
Those first 10 episodes from last year were always labeled 'Part 1,' while this upcoming batch is 'Part 2.' Along with the new footage, Netflix also announced the show had been picked up for an additional Season 2: https://deadline.com/2022/06/inside-job-renewed-season-2-netflix-1235040797/
No word on if Season 2 will also be 20 episodes long.
I enjoyed it, didnt carenfor the side characters but reagan and brett bounce off each other well. I think it would be cool if one of them developed feeling for other but werent recipricated, would also make a nice plot line for robo reagan to return and cause shenanigans
>yes i read ntr doujins, why do you ask?
>i remember what you did for me at prom, we've been good for 18 years
either one of them destroying that bond would be abhorrent.
>Hirsch's fantasy woman is a lumberjack lesbian
>Shion's fantasy man is a himbo.
It's like poetry.
How do you think they would be as a couple? would there be any changes in their dynamic?
Unless it turns out that Brett is a plant, it would be the best ending.
I really liked the idea that Brett and Reagan get into a situation where they thought they had sex but don't recall doing it, so they do it again, only to find out that they never did it the first time
sauce lol
i would say take a look at how they do in other relationships as a guide. reagan felt like robot swipe right guy was too stagnant and james bond was too clingy. brett was called out for being clingy in the 2nd to last episode, so that could be a red flag.
but also he was really good in bed in dolphman's body, so he'd keep reagan happy in that sense
brett was established as a trustworthy blank slate from episode 1, i don't see them complicating that
I enjoyed it very much.
I would've liked some more fanart of Reagan with the tramp stamp after the part 2 sneak peak dropped
>overtired, overmedicated, neurotic, conspiracy theory shouting, toblerone munching, sweatpants wearing mess
she's so fricking perfect bros
I love her more than you could imagine
>horseguy-tier drug humor sitcom mixed with rick and morty nihilist "comedy" and topped off with a fanbase mostly consisting of waifugays and cluster-b twitter homosexuals
Literally the epitome of why most adult animated shows suck dick now. Don't (you) me.
>nihilist
Bait or didn't watch a single episode.
>the entire show is based on the concept that every conspiracy ever made is real and that nobody, including the main characters, gives a shit
>nobody, including the main characters, gives a shit
sound familiar?
they spend the second half of the self-marriage episode trying to convince a guy that the earth isn't flat, it's hollow
the introduction of the father character is him shouting at children trying to get them to believe the truth about the shadow government
the gang's whole deal is to make sure that conspiracies get covered up and not noticed
the protagonist's whole deal is to take over cognito to make sure the world runs as efficiently as possible
there's plenty of valid criticism that can be levied against the show, but nihilism isn't one of them
>you may want to learn how to greentext instead of reddit spacing all your sentences, newbie
Can't tell if you're baiting or not so I'll just let it lie, but explaining the show to me doesn't make me think the humour is any less shitty rick and morty "woah guys the universe doesn't matter you're being controlled by social media anyway" garbage, no matter how hard you gays tell me it's "ironic". Harmon killed any chances this show had of being good by default.
>the show is nihilist!
>no it's not
>frick you!
lol, lmao even
>I say what my opinion of the show is
>(you)s me telling me I'm wrong
>explain to him why I'm right
>starts explaining the show to me for some reason
>starts putting words into my mouth because he can't argue back
Oh dear.
I agree the humor especially falls flat in this show. And that Andre homosexual is the worst character, everytime he's on screen it just kills my interest, I'm sorry but it's true.
>socially akaward xD Mary Sue main character
>her optimistic best friend and wing man character
>Asian druggie
>lel stupid and misunderstanding dad
>sassy black lady
>xD so random lul alien
This shit is literally character tropes the show.
>Reagan
>Mary Sue
Obvious bait is obvious
Did Inside Job have an ARG? It seems like the perfect show for hiidden messages with a secret subplot in it.
in an archived thread posted earlier, someone noticed a QR code when they posted the intro online that took people to a cognition inc hiring website with mp4s of scenes.
definitely would've liked more though.
Wonder if Brett still have his powers?
Good show. I've enjoyed what we've gotten so far.
And I thought Reagan x ROBOTUS was a crack ship.
bearo is just a tool, i'm sure reagan has vibrators of comparable sentience
she literaly build a robot boyfriend
yeah but they didn't talk about the dick situation, he could've been a ken doll
also that design was 100% made to be voiced by richard ayoade but i guess they couldn't get him
Myc did say Rafe Masters was the first guy Reagan got laid with who doesn't run on a charger.
Bobby lee voice acted in it and forgot he was in it 2 months later.
that's how shit this show is.zero impact.
"Shit" is a little harsh, don'tcha think?
I also recently finished it, and basically concur. I'm glad to see you say it's getting a second season. It kept surprising me. When Reagan got the promotion, I actually turned the episode off for a few days because I was sure she was going to go mad with power and the cliche would play out from there. So I was pleasantly surprised to come back and see it go in a completely different direction.
>giving up right at the finish line
I'm glad you eventually came to your senses, but seriously?
