"Carol and the End of the World" the new animated show on Netflix, is simply mind-blowing! It's not your typical animated show – it's a wild ride that mixes humor, heartbreak, and wonder. One of the most remarkable aspects of the series is its ability to navigate the delicate balance between contrasting emotions. The show's creators have masterfully woven together moments of gut-busting humor with heart-wrenching isolation, creating a narrative that takes you on an emotional rollercoaster. It's a testament to the show's brilliance that it can evoke both laughter and tears, within the same episode. Creator Dan Guterman nailed the human experience. The show dives into the messy, tough stuff, giving a depth that's fun and funny. But what really got me is how "Carol and the End of the World" finds beauty in the everyday. Even with the world falling apart, the characters find meaning in the little things, and it's a powerful reminder that life's beauty is in the ordinary stuff. This show isn't just entertaining; it's a wake-up call to appreciate the simple joys. This show not only makes you want to live but also encourages you to appreciate the beauty in the gift of our mundane routines. Kudos to the creators for delivering something truly original, comforting, and special.

Terrible animation. Forced and labored performances. I was so excited for the show, and I’m a huge MCU fan, but the way this looked and the pacing of the show was terrible. There was a morbid fascination to keep watching, but more in the I can’t believe this is what they did pov and less of the I can’t believe this is so good. The clunky animation that seemed like it was both flash animation and bad, Overly stylized 2D, left me uneasy. I couldn’t get into the show. I’ll keep watching out of morbid curiosity, but so far I felt this was one of the first big disappointments in the MCU

The animation was strange and stilted. Looked very off putting. The dialogue was so stilted and forced. It felt like bad dubbing. Even though I know most of the actual actors reprised their roles it felt like a cheap imitation. And I can’t get over how strange the animation style is. The way it’s rigged and the way the mouths move kept me distracted the entire time. I was so excited for this show. And I’ll keep watching it to see where it goes. But that pilot really turned me off.
