Ha. I have been watching this a bit and think the casting is great. It's addictive, but falls a bit too much on the "feels like it's for kids" side of "a grown-up story told through child's eyes" (in comparison to say, Stranger Things).

Netflix's output for the past year or so has felt very 6/10 to 7/10, and I'd give this a 7.5/10 so far (I'm a few episodes in).

I'm not wild about the source material, so I'll probably give this a pass.

I really thought this was going to be some kind of Twisted Metal reference based on the name. Finding out its about furries was a huge disappointment.

It’s so much more life-affirming than the source material. Give it a watch.

Tuned in, immediately get to watch cringey Ubisoft talking head offering her deepest sympathies to the families impacted by the Orlando shooting while flanked by a man in a giraffe suit and some sort of "horrifically garish neon costumes through the ages" exhibit or something.  We need to stop this fucking planet right now and sort some shit out. -Kail

It's not really about furries.

It's a blood-soaked post-apocalyptic story where nature has said "fuck you" to environmental damage by inflicting (simultaneously) a worse-than-covid pandemic and the mystery addition of seemingly random animal DNA to subsequent human babies. They are now born part-bird, part-pig or whatever, some more so than others. Many are abandoned or killed.

Society falls apart, survival cults and gangs emerge, and the animal-human kids are hunted and blamed for the pandemic. The eponymous character is a kid with antlers, partial to candy, raised in safety until....

When she crossed over, she was just a ship. But when she came back... she was bullshit!

So, it's Bambi with all the animal parts played by furries?
