The Fun Police really misinterpreted this. This is not saying anything about how good or bad LD is. I was just expecting something more like what TAS was to TOS. Other than the fact that TAS episodes were half the length and that the animated nature allowed them to afford to depict more exotic things like underwater scenes and six-limbed bridge crew members, TOS/TAS were mostly the same. They had roughly the same degree of adventure, philosophy, humor, etc. On the other hand, LD targeted a different audience by focusing on qualities that had not been prioritized in any earlier series. I was just disappointed by how different LD is from TAS.
I watched the first four episodes or so and what I noticed the most was how it seemed like every character was either yelling or speaking at high volume the whole time. It was exhausting. I really like R&M and I know this is from one of the key creatives on that show so it was super disappointing.
My dad felt the same, but he powered through a couple more episodes and it gets noticably better, and has now seen all of it except the most recent season. They even make a joke about loud and fast they used to speak at one point. So if you’re willing to, I’d say give it a go it really is worth it imo.
