With a small audience and a quick end and little lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

- Who'll love it
- Made for anyone who wants a laugh, sci-fi fans and animation lovers.

- 1 season: a few weeks of evenings, short, snackable episodes, about 5 hours in all.

- Rated TV-14: scary moments. Probably too much for younger kids.
