Things got so weird with the rebirth thing. Surprised the show has gone on as long as it has

I truly love this show, but I must agree. It really had the feeling of out of ideas, o yea, Colin is a baby now

As someone who hasn't watched this show does rebirth mean something different to being reincarnated and born again or is that what it means ?

He's just reborn as a baby, it's complicated. Don't let it discourage you the show is very very funny.

I won't spoil anything but most of the story arcs are wrapping up and I'd prefer they go out on a high note as well. I'm glad they're getting one last season to tie up any loose ends.

For anyone that hasn't seen it there's a prequel movie of the same name made by the same people that's equally hilarious as the show and pretty much unrelated.

The series is more of a continuation than a prequel. It was made first and the shows creator has been in character in the current show.

[–] norbert@kbin.social 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Correct, the movie is the prequel to the show, as I said.

[–] Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca 1 points 10 months ago

Colin would probably pedantically say that the show is a sequel to the movie, the prequel term describes movies/shows set in a time before an original work.

More literal, actually. Think regular birth meets Alien.
