Excellent, a Must See

Don't listen to the negative reviews

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

I mean, come on!!! This is made by Ryan Quincy!! The man who worked on South Park!! And just when I thought this show was gonna be good, it wasn't good. I have seen the first episode, and I did not laugh once. I know it's part-drama, but it's supposed to be a dramedy, as in drama AND comedy. I had NEVER made a giggle, a chuckle, a chortle, or a single laugh watching Out There. This show was on IFC, a channel almost nobody even cares about. I know this was distributed by Fox, but come on, Ryan Quincy!! I know you can do better. It's not funny, it's not entertaining, it even fails at being a drama, it's just gerbils in high school doing typical things. That's it. The first episode was about Chris getting a cast on his leg, and is called "mommy". Have I ever found that joke funny? No. This show is nothing more than a soulless pile of garbage. The art style kind of reminded me of Regular Show (as much as I hate that show). Why is the creator of Rick and Morty in this show too?? Stay away from this show, and you'll live a better life.

In times where everything looks like something else and every series conforms to formulas hatched out in writing seminars, Out There strikes me as one thing in particular: honest.It's not pretentious about wanting to be hip or fitting in with the crowd. It can stand for its own. Starting with the visuals, which confuse the feeble minded (how can a dog or bunny-like character talk and walk like a human, right?!) and goes right down to the storyline and dialog. It's not like I am waiting for the next pun. It's not Big Bang Theory, where you know what is coming next. The surprise is in not knowing what you are in for and despite having watched every episode, I feel there is much left to learn about Chad in particular and his way of looking at the world. I feel that this is a view that many have shared through their coming of age and most have lost later, in favor of something more fashionable or by mouthing after some trend. Chad is a character that gets me to think about myself. And that is a rare trend in cartoon or any kind of entertainment for me. I don't believe this show is intended for children at all, but they will see their own truths in it. The laughs don't come off a tape in this series, but they sure come anyways. And I find myself sitting and waiting for more, because this show makes me think about what I've seen and doesn't abuse my emotions like so many other shows do. Writing always follows a formula, but in the case of Out There it is a heartfelt formula which translates to the open minded viewer. I hope there will be more of it.
