Henpocalypse! (2023– )
7/10
Very ballsy
19 September 2023
At the start of episode 1 I thought I'd hate it, as the characters were grating and really not the kind of people I'd want to watch a show about (or so I thought) as they came across as rather abrasive.

But as the episode went on, that changed completely.

The characters are over the top and somewhat annoying in contrast with the seriousness of the situations they're in, and despite quite a bit of the humour being focused on some narrow topics, there's some pretty clever dry humour chucked in there too.

I saw one review mentioned the dialogue being really bad and I can't help but feel like they maybe missed the whole idea of the show in terms of tone. And again, the dry humour.

Also, somehow, in 6 episodes half hour episodes, it has more character development than most shows that get double the runtime and episode count per season.

My advice to anyone wanting to watch it, is that if you want to watch a surprisingly well written show wearing the mask of a badly written show, give it a go.
