Disenchantment (2018–2023)
6/10
Cute and sometimes funny
19 August 2018
It's a funny premise, and the characters are well made. The animations are nice, and the story outlines are interesting. But when you get into the details, this series (at least the first half of season 1) is somewhat dull.

After decades of Simsons and especially Futurama we know how to recognize the setups and can see the slapstick humor a mile away. This makes a lot of the humor to fall on it's own face.

In the series, life is either worthless or priceless. This dissonance makes for some funny moments, but it also makes the story less coherent and the characters feel less real then they should.

I might very well not be in the demographics for this show. But I wonder what age group would like it?

From my viewpoint the this could have been so much better if the creators had been less locked to what was edgy a decade ago and dared to follow thru on the concept.
