As a twenty-something animator who's also been working a shitty dayjob to make ends meet I feel a little less lonely after watching these episodes. Lots of love to the team behind this incredible series from across the ocean and I can't wait to see what happens next!
This show has a ' Raw ' style to its comedy where every conversation feels sorta real in how the jokes flow in the conversation. Instead of sounding like jokes, they sound like real exchanges between people in comedic ways. Pretty fun/interesting
"That's some nice advice, you know, if you want to be exactly like Rico." Is a line we gotta hear sometimes. You should listen to the advice of people you want to be, not the advice of people who want you to BE them. Cause really the best-case scenario is that the latter people want you to replace them when THEY leave for brighter pastures.
This actually feels like real human interaction instead of how most shows feel, I love it good work to the animators, voice actors and other people behind the scenes. Hoping to see more from you all
All of my part time jobs have been at bowling alleys. There is truth in all of this. I also haven’t seen an animated show with this kind of dialogue since home movies and I love it.
Love that even the regulars know about staff gossip. It means they either treat each other as equals or the staff just don’t censor themselves around customers; either way, I love it.
god i love this show. it’s a classic concept of following 20-something customer service workers but with a more modern and realistic style of dialogue. can’t get enough of it. please keep it going
I've really enjoyed these so far! The art style is super charming and the limited animation works very well for the humor. There's a 'Home Movies' kind of vibe to these that's endearing.
This is really good, I hope this gets popular because I've worked jobs like this and have known people like this. It's funny, relatable, and has a lot of heart.
Paul, you got something special on your hands here. I watched the three episodes available and it’s like you got the authentic banter of smiling friends and michael kusac and the authentic living of a 20 something from Scott pilgrim in the modern day. You should def pitch this to adult swim they know how successful smiling friends was, you got a good shot. (Not trying to say both shows are the same or anything just same style of humor with this being more grounded in reality). Fresh blood, GET THIS MAN A CONTRACT!!!
I like the litte detail towards the end. Throughout the video the camera was rolling, and you can tell by the kinda shaky movement within the screen. But when Ivan and Lily had their breakthrough, the screen wasn't shaky, meaning this wasn't being filmed. I guess he understood that they needed that time to themselves to finally breakthrough. Or because Rico didn't get that promotion. Or because he was tired. Ion know I like this show I can't wait to see more 13 out of 10.
Being young is so fleeting, and being young as work was wild haha good times. We all had jobs like this and foolish not to appreciate what we had at the time, however much some of the day to day can suck.
I love this show so much so far. The dialogue and characters are so fun, and it can't be overstated how relatable a lot of this is, especially being an animator in his early 20s.
This show is incredible!!! I love how each of the characters are flawed and unique in their own way, while still having some charm :) the style is so chill and I love it soooo much. Super relatable, too!!! As an animation student it's just so wonderful to see new series release online like this. :)
I hope this show gets the attention it deserves. It’s a good mini series but I’d love to see it as a tv show on a bigger platform to reach more people. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I cannot overstate how much I love the dialogue in these episodes, every conversation just feels so real, the jokes never overstep their bounds, and the show really feels like I'm there. Lovely work, I would love to see more!
God this series is lovely The dialog is messy The people are flawed People try to butt in constantly It gets awkward And its one of the most authentic feelings of a freshly 21 or so year old developing life i have seen (yknow except the building trashing)
I loved these three episodes, and I absolutely need more!! As someone who is looking to major in film it has me a little horrified but I loved it all the same
Welp, just watched all the episodes. Just commenting to give it the boost in the algorithm it very much deserves! Hoping it gets picked up for more episodes
This has been a great little series! All of the other Fresh Blood projects have their merits, but if this one doesn't get a shot at a pilot then something will have gone horribly wrong.
I really love this cartoon! The style is very simple, expressive, and unique compared to other adult cartoons. The dialogue and casual setting reminds me of MTV's Downtown. Please make more i want to see these characters again :D
I. Adored. That. So. Much. Once you get into this series there’s such a charm to it and it’s characters that’s just so much fun and keeps me wanting to watch their everyday life and shenanigans. I especially loved the dynamic between Rico and the girl (forgot her name rn 😭) it felt so… real, and genuine. The characters felt very raw and I loved how genuine the ending was. It was simple but heartfelt. Absolutely adore this, hope to see it become a full series one day ❤
sunglasses guy who hangs out at the bowling alley passionately defending how much he loves his wife is just the best
"THEY'RE GONNA BURY ME, WITH MY MONEY, LIKE AN EGYPTION GOD!" is such a great line
“I HATE YOU, I HATE YOU”
As a twenty-something animator who's also been working a shitty dayjob to make ends meet I feel a little less lonely after watching these episodes. Lots of love to the team behind this incredible series from across the ocean and I can't wait to see what happens next!
Sooo I’m in the same position! Hang in there we will get thru this ❤️
My advice is to try to enjoy these experiences while they last. They don't last forever.
After watching the three episodes that are out right now. I can definitely say this is one of my favorites ongoing series.
YES
"...how about we just practice right now?" Fucking golden series my guy keep going please
This show has a ' Raw ' style to its comedy where every conversation feels sorta real in how the jokes flow in the conversation. Instead of sounding like jokes, they sound like real exchanges between people in comedic ways.
Pretty fun/interesting
Reminds me of the show home movies
It’s kind of reminiscent of smiling friends’ writing style
That style of comedy is called character and improvisational comedy
you're absolutely right, i hope i can implement this kind of comedy in the books i'm currently writing
"That's some nice advice, you know, if you want to be exactly like Rico." Is a line we gotta hear sometimes.
You should listen to the advice of people you want to be, not the advice of people who want you to BE them. Cause really the best-case scenario is that the latter people want you to replace them when THEY leave for brighter pastures.
If this show stops at 3 episodes, I’m never watching Australian television again
Do I have bad news for you
Hey I just want to say I somehow discovered this out of nowhere and I adore it.
This show deserves alot more love
Same situation here, wasn't expecting to love this as much as I did
Same
Only three episodes is CRIMINAL. i need more!!!!
Please don't tell me this is the end! I want more of Ivan and Lily!!
"Awww Lily.... Of course they will. ☺" Is such a great line lol.
I've had "MY SAVINGS! MY SAVINGS!" stuck in my head for weeks
Australia doing its own special thing again, this series is excellent so far.
the dialogue feels incredibly natural.
This actually feels like real human interaction instead of how most shows feel, I love it good work to the animators, voice actors and other people behind the scenes. Hoping to see more from you all
I can’t describe how familiar yet fresh and new this series is
it reminds me a lot of home movies, maybe that’s what’s making it feel familiar!!
We need more of this show
Broberg mispronuncing Rico's name the whole time is my favourite little bit of sad-funny
Rico for sure cleaned it up and probably didn't give Ivan and Lily a punishment bc sober he realized it wasn't their fault
that ending hit different ❤ top shelf stuff, props to the whole crew on these shorts
Playing jungle/dnb at a bowling alley is an idea I'll be saving for a parallel universe where I own a bowling alley.
I love this show giving me scott pilgrim vibes with a sick sound track
All of my part time jobs have been at bowling alleys. There is truth in all of this. I also haven’t seen an animated show with this kind of dialogue since home movies and I love it.
Love that even the regulars know about staff gossip.
It means they either treat each other as equals or the staff just don’t censor themselves around customers; either way, I love it.
i really liked what they did when rico slammed the door and the style of him through the window looked the way it did
I'm obsessed with Lilly now I love her voice
Fr
Loving the vibe this show gives off. Hope to see more episodes.
god i love this show. it’s a classic concept of following 20-something customer service workers but with a more modern and realistic style of dialogue. can’t get enough of it. please keep it going
That ending was like Lost In Translation level quality, this show will become something big one day
Ivan and Lily is so perfectly imperfect I love it so much
I've really enjoyed these so far! The art style is super charming and the limited animation works very well for the humor. There's a 'Home Movies' kind of vibe to these that's endearing.
This is the “Home Movies” of the modern age. So glad I stumbled across it
this series has strong smiling friends vibes but in a more laid back way
okay, even with only 3 episodes released i can officially say this is one of my fave tv shows.
MY SAVINGS MY SAVINGS 😂
more please. abc iview company I'm talking to you, have them make more of this. I'm the consumers (yeah all of them) and i demand it. thanks
Two months later and I'm still coming back, I'm going to be dying for more
This is really good, I hope this gets popular because I've worked jobs like this and have known people like this. It's funny, relatable, and has a lot of heart.
Rico is peak character design
Lily: I know my parents are gonna hate him.
Hannah: Aw, Lily...of course they will.
LOL😂
I live in New Zealand, I know this show is Australian but it honestly feels good to watch a show and have people talking how I'm used to
"yeah, and that's some nice advice... if you want to end up like Rico"
lol. Hella real, honestly.
Paul, you got something special on your hands here. I watched the three episodes available and it’s like you got the authentic banter of smiling friends and michael kusac and the authentic living of a 20 something from Scott pilgrim in the modern day. You should def pitch this to adult swim they know how successful smiling friends was, you got a good shot. (Not trying to say both shows are the same or anything just same style of humor with this being more grounded in reality). Fresh blood, GET THIS MAN A CONTRACT!!!
I want more episodes, I got addicted to this already after 3 episodes
I got mad futurama vibes from the direction I love it
Me: "I love how all those guys look like Rico"
Ivan: "A lot of Rico looking guys around here tonight"
You set me up, nice job
I like the litte detail towards the end. Throughout the video the camera was rolling, and you can tell by the kinda shaky movement within the screen. But when Ivan and Lily had their breakthrough, the screen wasn't shaky, meaning this wasn't being filmed.
I guess he understood that they needed that time to themselves to finally breakthrough.
Or because Rico didn't get that promotion. Or because he was tired. Ion know I like this show I can't wait to see more 13 out of 10.
Didn’t even know I was missing this. It’s so cute and I love it
Oof, Lawyer Guy is such a creep, and sadly very realistic depiction of someone trying to use their position to manipulate someone.
i’ve already fallen in love with this series it’s just so fresh, everything just feels natural
Being young is so fleeting, and being young as work was wild haha good times.
We all had jobs like this and foolish not to appreciate what we had at the time, however much some of the day to day can suck.
this gives me massive amounts of Home Movies vibes down from the dialog to the animation and I love every aspect of it
I sincerely hope they continue this fantastic series for many episodes to come
I love this show so much so far. The dialogue and characters are so fun, and it can't be overstated how relatable a lot of this is, especially being an animator in his early 20s.
We definitely need more episodes of this it’s great
This show is incredible!!! I love how each of the characters are flawed and unique in their own way, while still having some charm :) the style is so chill and I love it soooo much. Super relatable, too!!! As an animation student it's just so wonderful to see new series release online like this. :)
This is exactly the kind of show I've been looking for. The writing, animation, and voice acting is all on point
Please please please more, this is a fantastic series. Great work to the whole team involved.
This series is such a breath of fresh air! I love it so much so far and I can't wait to see where it goes
I hope this show gets the attention it deserves. It’s a good mini series but I’d love to see it as a tv show on a bigger platform to reach more people. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I cannot overstate how much I love the dialogue in these episodes, every conversation just feels so real, the jokes never overstep their bounds, and the show really feels like I'm there. Lovely work, I would love to see more!
Man this Series is so good, the animation is impecable and the story is just amazing
I need more episodes of this ASAP!!!!!
God this series is lovely
The dialog is messy
The people are flawed
People try to butt in constantly
It gets awkward
And its one of the most authentic feelings of a freshly 21 or so year old developing life i have seen (yknow except the building trashing)
i still desperately want more of this show
This is a good show. I loved Michael Cusack shows ever since I’ve seen Yolo.
Damn this is great it's funny as hell hope there will be more episodes cause this has a lot of potential.
I’m in full support of this show
Rico is such a great character. And I loved this episode, Ginebra, and Rico's family for that matter, are sooo chaotic evil.
I want more PLEASE
I really want more of this. This is so cool.
This show was way too real as a 25 year old that was homeless for a short while and is now between jobs lmao
I love how every scene is extremely relatable in a way most shows don't do. Great series so far
This feels amazing, and will definitely get this on bluray one day
I adore this show, it came out of absolutely nowhere and now I look for it every single day
rlly hope this gets more episodes. This is the first series in this genre that's gotten everything right in a longgg time
this show is an aussie gem! I can't wait for more of it. please keep it up!
I loved these three episodes, and I absolutely need more!! As someone who is looking to major in film it has me a little horrified but I loved it all the same
LETS TRASH THE PLAAAACE
iconic line, immediate iconic line
food.... water.... day job episode 4.....
I really need to se more of this show…
… makes me heart warm ❤
Welp, just watched all the episodes. Just commenting to give it the boost in the algorithm it very much deserves!
Hoping it gets picked up for more episodes
This gives off clerk vibes and I am already in love with it.
I feel like I'm watching a show about my friends and it's so killer. Want to watch a whole series of this.
This has been a great little series! All of the other Fresh Blood projects have their merits, but if this one doesn't get a shot at a pilot then something will have gone horribly wrong.
It is firmly cemented, this is one of my favorite shows ever
More please, I really want Lily and Ivan to be together and work things out. This is an addicting series wow. I will be waiting for more...
i need episode 4
everybody here's been saying how the artstyle is pretty similar to home movies's, but to me it also reminds me a lot of dan the man
Beautiful credit sequence
I really hope they make more episodes, this show is fantastic
I really love this cartoon! The style is very simple, expressive, and unique compared to other adult cartoons. The dialogue and casual setting reminds me of MTV's Downtown. Please make more i want to see these characters again :D
I this really like this. It's Regular Show crossed with the Office
God I love this show. Cant wait for episode 4! Very inspiring to make my own stuff
delivers the fourth chapter..
I. Adored. That. So. Much. Once you get into this series there’s such a charm to it and it’s characters that’s just so much fun and keeps me wanting to watch their everyday life and shenanigans. I especially loved the dynamic between Rico and the girl (forgot her name rn 😭) it felt so… real, and genuine. The characters felt very raw and I loved how genuine the ending was. It was simple but heartfelt. Absolutely adore this, hope to see it become a full series one day ❤
This might unironically be the only ABC show I'd be extremely interested in, would love to see this get refreshed for more episodes!
When are the two bowler dudes gonna make out?
This feels like a cross between regular show and the office and I love it
