Kevin review – Aubrey Plaza’s new cat comedy is so irretrievably bad it must never be allowed to happen again

Good gods, that is a scathing review.

I saw the title, then I read the review, and all I could think about was Al Pacino in *Jack and Jill*, saying, “Burn this. This must never be seen again.”

Why are all these terrible animated shows have the exact same animation style. Is it one studio pumping these out?

“Kevin also has a protuberant a***, a fact that is repeated with a fervour that suggests the writers believe it to be powerful enough to merit a “long-running gag” badge. “Stop talking about your deformed a***,” slurs Kevin’s alcoholic goose friend, Chuck. “It’s not deformed,” shouts Kevin. “It’s prolapsed!” And lo, the soul begins its inexorable decline.” Ooooooffff. I was thinking the reviewer may be a bit harsh but this honestly sounds unwatchable

"Perhaps there weren’t enough biscuits. Perhaps the show was written by biscuits." Oof.

I find these types of adult cartoons so tedious to watch

It's insane how many good shows get cancelled only to get replaced by complete garbage. It's as if Hollywood wants people to stop watching.

The lazy animation that doesn't differentiate it from other adult cartoons was the warning sign.

There’s a certain artistry to a creative bad review. Not one that screams or uses profanity in a dull manner, but really scathing. The kind of insults that make you realize you would have never used those terms on their own to make fun of something. The show looks like every other dime a dozen Western adult comedy. They churn these things on an assembly line to the point when something visually unique like Hazbin Hotel comes along it’s treated as the second coming of the Looney Toons.

Adult animation has reached a nadir and it's all become so derivative that I feel like I know what this show is like without having to watch a minute of it. All of the humor is supposed to come from the "shocking" things the characters say in sassy voices. The characters' faces are all bland Family Guy/Rick & Morty designs and don't look at all like artists sat down and thought about what they should look like, or what makes for a funny or interesting cartoon face. When it comes to cartoon animals, a good rule of thumb is that their faces should be somewhat pleasant to look at, and actually sort of cute, to provide a meaningful contrast for when the snarky comedians' voices come out of their mouths, because that's the schtick they always go for these days. A cartoon cat should also have a face that evokes a cat, and a dog a dog, etc, but you have to have some creativity to do that. This cat just has Morty's face, from Rick & Morty.

It depresses me to see shows hire only super rich and famous actors for their whole cast. No actor hired on this show benefits from the money or the exposure of booking it. There are actors living paycheck to paycheck who pray for these jobs, and our money just goes towards the already rich’s fourth homes. 

“This is not a joke. This is a handful of words in a raincoat” The whole review is incredible, but this really cracked me up.

“What a wasteland of imagination it all is; its heart and soul as irretrievable as Kevin’s a***” Goddamn. Seriously though, I’m tired of this genre of animated shows

man 90% of new animated shows look the same and i automatically tune them out because of that.

I’m guessing they wanted to make another BoJack Horseman but put more raunch in it because nowadays adult animation has to be more South Park than sweet. The cast sounds good though.

Just another television executive trying to figure out what’s the laziest unwatchable drivel that the can still get people to watch.

Director of the show here! Just gonna give a little push here for people to watch and judge for themselves. You might like it, and if you don’t, that’s cool too!

I LOVE Aubrey, but I have to admit, this show just looks like Rick and Morty and Big Mouth, with the unappealing art style. I also don't like the "OMG POP CULTURE REFERENCE" or "HAHA DIRTY JOKE" that shows like these seem to have.

Craziest part of this is the other two reviews posted are positive lol

I watched two episodes of this before dropping it. The idea of a cat of a broken up couple leaving to find himself is interesting, but the writing is just filled with bottom of the barrel pop culture references, smarmy millennial quips, and poorly done gross-out. And the art style is ugly. They somehow roped John Waters into this; even Pink Flamingos is more tasteful than this

I’m literally watching this show right now and it’s not great.

Makes me kinda want to see it.

“There is the suspicion that something has gone very, very wrong in the writers’ room. Perhaps there weren’t enough biscuits. Perhaps the show was written by biscuits. “ This may be the most British review snippet I’ve ever seen.

Haven't read the reviews yet or seen the show. But is it actually worse than Mayim Bialiks cat show? That thing was terrible. Ohhh...animation..and it doesn't look good either. Thats a shame.

This is a fun review, I highly recommend reading it.

did her and Tosh make a bet on who could come up with the worst animated TV show or what?

This is a shame. Absolutely love the cast and creators. Gil Ozeri is like one of my favorite *Comedy Bang Bang* recurring guests and Joe Wengert wrote some of the best sketches for *Kroll Show.*

So, basically it’s going to be a cult classic in a few years

I have to say, I just want to watch it to confirm how terrible it is. Maybe that's what Amazon wants?

I think we finally found an animated show worse than Allen Gregory!

Joe and Aubrey are quite literally some of my least favorite type of people and I wish they would just stop trying to create shit.

The worst thing about this show is that John Waters is really old and could keel over at any moment with *this* as his final role.

I watched 7 minutes and so far I think it’s funny 

"Kevin appears unsure whether to commit to gleeful grossness (a la Big Mouth) or emotionally profound dramedy (see: BoJack Horseman). Its unwillingness to engage in character development and its favouring of cruelty over empathy, however, ensures it succeeds at neither." Dayum.

What happened to her awesome animated show she had with Danny Devito when her daughter was the devils child?!
