This show leaves a lot to be desired in terms of comedy. But when it works, it WORKS! For the most part, the jokes don't land well, often falling flat. Though there were moments throughout that had me laughing to the point of tears. Sadly those moments are far and few between. A saving grace for this show is the beautiful and clever art style. The toy aspect that the whole show has kept pulling me coming back in.
The story had a great starting off point, however; eventually the over-the-top insanity derailed the main point of the story. The hole purpose the characters served became nearly lost by the end. Also there is character development, but it is sparse. And on one final note, the voice acting is excellent, (Thankfully!)
Overall this show is worth watching if you have nothing else to do. It has enough going for it as to not be a waste of time. Also if you are a Robot Chicken fan, this will scratch that itch. If there is a second season, all I wish for is higher grade comedy.
