A mixed bag by anyother name

This show... Oh man, this show is without a doubt the most bizarre thing I've ever seen. That's the only phrase that does it justice. There's no rhyme or rhythm to what's going to happen. With Negative Continuity at full throttle, anything and everything can happen. This makes the series incredibly unpredictable with outrageous swerves and deaths coming out of nowhere. This is actually a pretty good thing as it keeps you on the edge of your seat, wondering what kind of insane thing is going to happen next. And more often than not, the show delivers.

Except sometimes, you don't enjoy what you get. The show contains very generous heapings of black comedy that more often than not, comes off as a bad case of Dude, Not Funny!!. In particular, I especially hated it when Master Shake microwaved not one but 2 kittens! Like, that's not even shock humour, that's just really poor taste.

In other cases, it's actually pretty funny and the black humour is actually genuinely funny. I'll admit, the series made me laugh more than a few times.

And then there are moments when it's just plain weird to the point where you question yourself if the 10 minutes you spent watching it was worth it. That's another thing worth mentioning actually. Each episode is only 10 minutes long, so you can quickly watch one episode and if it's a particularly crap one, you don't lose too much time watching it.

Overall, The series just baffles me. It's an incredibly strange and surreal experience to watch this show and it can be real hit-and-miss with its pretty original plots and heavy abuse of negative continuity. There were times I laughed, there were times I was deeply shocked, and there were times where I muttered to myself, "what the actual fuck did I just watch?" I'd recommend watching the first few episodes to get an idea of what the show is like, as I really can't decide whether to recommend watching the series or not. It's just that strange
