RIP Inside Job

Unpopular opinion, but I wasn’t a fan. Was it a bad show? No! Did I enjoy it? Sometimes. How it developed the cult following that it has, I can’t quite piece together. Fantastic voice acting and sound design can only pull so much weight!

Fantastic acting and production quality can elevate any media but especially TV shows. Look at Shrinking for a prime example. It has the production quality of Dispatches From Elsewhere but it's essentially a three camera sitcom like Modern Family or hell All in the Family. And it's KILLING right now.

People like the humor of Inside Job and the fantastic quality made it so much better.

I guess if you’re in the market for cola, you’ll look for the cola with the best taste. But seeing a discontinued cola lauded as a fallen behemoth is a bit odd, from my perspective

I didn't care for it either.

I gave it like 3-4 episodes but couldn't do it. I thought given the cult following and reputation it'd be right up my alley.

An excellent concept with some interesting opportunities, butchered by regressing it to the same kitschy formulaic plotlines as every other uninspiring adult animation show. I don't want Big Bang Theory, I want Twin Peaks.
