Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Good concept, poorly executed.
Excellent, smart action film.
I really adore this show. Not only the artwork but it is actually funny. The voice cast and the characters are wonderful. Especially Rad, who is has to be my favorite from the show. Each episode they have aired so far, it always put a smile on my face.This show really does deserves a second season. Not because I want one but to explain more about not only the series itself but we know a lot about the background of all the characters except for Rad. We need to see more of his back-story. To be honest, I find it a lot better than Archer and I like Archer as well.
View MoreThe comparison to "Archer" looms large over "Moonbeam City" (and it is apt), but the show's nowhere near as funny. Most of the jokes are amusing in an "I see what you did there" sorta way, but there's no knee-slapping, and I don't remember a good one-liner. The good things about this show are mostly textural; I liked the neon pastels (reminds me of games like "Double Dragon Neon" and "Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon") and I do like the music. But the Patrick Nagel character models lack the versatility for series animation. Basically, it kinda gets old.It seems strange to me that, to this '80s junkie, "Moonbeam City" goes overboard with the stuff. But it's just not that funny. I know full well that I'm judging the series based solely on the pilot, so I'm hoping to check back in later in the season and see some improvement. If the writers find their groove, this might work.5/10
View MoreOff the bat YES it's like an Archer clone. But c'mon, how many of those do you see around? Secondly, it's like Archer Vice, which in my opinion was their best season, but this one is Archer Vice, literally, figuratively on crack, without pants, or care, eating a hotdog dripping onto a Carl's fat stomach, may he rest in peace with Meatwad.This show is extremely funny. Will they keep it up? Only time will tell like every single comedy ever made.First episode is very strong, clearly another show that gives no F**********s. Rob Lowe fit absolutely perfectly and quite obviously as Dazzle Novak. But I think the crown jewel here is Will Forte's Rad Cunningham. This guy was glorious as usual.Anyone who likes Archer should quiet down, as they are on a downhill slope at the moment, until they bring back Archer Vice, this will do. Plus it's great to have options!
View MoreSimilar humor sensibilities to adult cartoons mentioned in summary title. Love the subtle jokes as well as 80/90s cultural references. Not a show with universal appeal but do not think this is what they are going for. Rob Lowe's voice and acting sensibilities really add to the humor. This was one of the first shows I've watched in a while and caught myself laughing out loud. If they can keep this level of humor going even for one season, this will definitely become another cult guilty pleasure series to add to my list. I would not be surprised if it does not make it past the first season due to this being a very specific type of humor that is likely not to gain many fans beyond those who already love this type of adult toon comedy.
