I have to say - it's been really true to the movie so far. All the characters haven't been changed a bit.

Seems kinda cool but I don't know if it's going to be able to live up to the movie.

The voices are good, are they the original actors? If so, then it might have a chance, as long as eventually they stray from the film and add new material.

(12,132 posts)at least, all the main ones. I believe there are more in the cartoon than the movie though - I know I saw Deidrich Bader's name pop up in the credits and don't remember him in the movie.
I loved the 2 eps tonight. Set my DVR for "series."

I wondered, however....how much absurdist animation can the world take? And there a finite well of absurdity? Simpsons, Family Guy, Napoleon Dynamite, etc.......can they keep finding new absurdities?
Hope so!
