Cartoons Has anyone here watched Disenchantment?

[Waffles's iconWaffles]

I can't say I have, and that's largely because I keep forgetting it exists.

It looks like a really fun experience, but I can't get over the fact that a show "manned" and staffed by so much The Simpsons and Futurama talent (from writers to voice actors) doesn't seem to be talked about at all, at least on the circles I run in.

Have you watched it? Meant to? If so, what was your experience with it? Would you recommend it?

I saw the first few seasons and enjoyed it! (I also forgot it existed during the wait between S2 and S3 I think lol) My friends who went on to watch all of it say it's better than the simpsons and futurama since it's more narratively focused (which sounds like a high bar since I really liked futurama!) so it's probably worth checking out!

It's like the Princess Bride meets Futurama. The trailer is edited like a romcom from the 90's. I'll take a look at it.

 

[G.L.a.D.O.S.]

Years ago, it seems I actually forgot it existed, honestly. I think it was season one, but not even all of it.
I caught bits and pieces here and there.

 

[RageBurner]

I haven't, but I feel it often, does that count? haha.

Just watched the first episode. Reminds me of the first season of Futurama. Don't see much Simpson's influence, but there are echoes of it. Doesn't appear to be cursed like many Netflix productions are.

You and everyone else bud.

Not myself, but my mom and big siblings loved it, to the point they discussed it in the phone and every new season they watched it in binge as if it was a movie, honestly i am more of a Futurama guy

It was far better than I expected; I watched it back when it was still brand new and coming out, but I don't think I watched the entire show. Very funny, very unexpected.

 

[Waffles's iconWaffles]

I watched a couple of episodes...

In the words of Elfo:

"I liked it, but I wouldn't say I loved it".

Damn funny, though.

I loved it. Very funny and I enjoy the story quite a bit. If you like Futurama you'll probably enjoy this too.

 

[Waffles's iconWaffles]

I'm starting to really like it now.

Feels like a demented Discworld had an illegitimate child with Futurama XD

 

[Waffles's iconWaffles]

Finished it a couple of days ago.

It was on 9/10 territory for much of its run, but the last ten episodes felt so awkward, rushed and poorly-paced that I can understand why it ranks as a 7/10 affair on most sites... The final stretch really did cost it like that!

Still, what a show!

 

[Badseed Badseed]

I've seen a few episodes, it's ok if you really dig the simps/future.
besides that... Meh. I haven't seen it since I cancelled my Netflix.
Speaking of not having Netflix, man I really miss Delicious in Dungeon.

 

[Ikagura]

I really liked the first season but went on the second and third..

Then I forgot it existed.

I think that the first one is still the best yet I'd still put Futurama above.

 

[.xxxevious]

Yup, this is my opinion exactly. It was a damn shame.

I think it got cancelled kind of suddenly. I remember reading that it was pulled while they were in the middle of writing the last season, so it was supposed to get another season or more to wrap up the story. (emphasis on I think it was this show).

Really sucks how rushed the ending was though. It's like they didn't even try.
