ridiculous rating

disgusting, overrated, pointless

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.

Started watching hoping for some Rick & Morty type humor and storytelling. Sorely disappointed.

This isn't a typical comedy show. At least not in the sense that there is typical jokes. It gets is humor from being nonsensical, ironic and self aware. I would compare this show to most memes and rappers now a days. Its aware of how ridiculous it is and thrives because of it. The dialogue is serious and dramatic in awkward situations, and cartoony and campy at times that doesnt call for it. Thanks to the input from Seth Green and Justin Roiland, the oneliners-per-minute ratio is near "Ron Burgandy" levels. Simply put, imagine if you had an interdimensional cable box from Rick and Morty (another more popular project of Roiland's). Now imagine a primetime detective show that you might see emanating from that insanity box and that would essentially be Hot Streets. And for that reason I cant promise it will be for everyone. If your looking for "relatable" situations then this might not be your speed. However, if you genuenly dont mind being confused, and you enjoy the interdimensional cable episodes of Rick and Morty, or if you enjoy vintage Adult Swim (Space Ghost, The Brak Show, Harvey Birdman, Sealab, ATHF, etc.) Then Hot Streets is definitely worth checking out!

Terrible animation, unfunny jokes, incoherent universe structure, boring violence, too many deus ex machinas, interesting character designs and dilemmas immediately skipped over for lame main cast of schmucks who are less interesting to listen and watch than actual planks of wood.It's like watching R rated Uncle Grandpa if it were made by a boring has been uncle.I have seen better works on Newground 15 years ago.
