I mean, I like Keith David as much as anybody else, but the president's character does not deserve its own fucking spinoff

I agree with you in all but conclusion.

Three President's character does not deserve it's own fucking spin-off, but hey - when you have legendary voice actor Keith David, you gotta roll with it.

Lol this is going to be terrible

Oof I don't know about this. The president is an okay side character, but not good enough for a full show.

[–] toothbrush@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, hes a little bit one dimensional. Great cast though. Maybe its a miniseries like the vindicators 2?

[–] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 weeks ago

Even having whole episodes revolve around him was a bit much

Every R&M spinoff sucked. So safe bet this is going to suck too.

I think there was an anime thing? That's the only other one of which I'm aware.

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Ohh, right.... we don't talk about that.

To be fair, Rick and Morty sucks now too

Honestly, this season surprised me with the number of good episodes. I was more of a fan of the first two seasons for the wacky adventures, and there are a lot of those in this season

It is obviously so scripted now. Delivery is off and meh. There have been the occasional chuckles though but it has definitely lost its charm.
