7/10
Does nobody have a sense of humour?
10 January 2020
This is absurdist comedy. It Is meant to be ridiculously stupid to the point of laughter, just like Children's Hospital (which is rated a 7.8 currently and is the basis for this spin off) and NTSF:SD:SUV (which is rated a 7.3 currently and is a parody of every cop serial but especially the ones that use acronyms, as the show actually means " (National Terrorism Strike Force: San Diego: Sport Utility Vehicle" which is hilarious on its own).

Obviously we are all different and have different tastes but this show isn't a 4/10. I believe the problem is that it airs on Netflix, while those other shows did not and were niche shows that are marketed towards a select audience of people who know those shows exist and know that they are short ten minute episodes airing at midnight on the Adult Swim Network.

With Netflix being what it is and attracting a global audience, they've increased the episode run time from 10 minutes to 20 minutes and the worldwide viewers only include a fraction of people who actually enjoy these absurdist parody shows, hence the low rating. it this aired on Adult Swim, then it would have hit it's target market squarely on the nose and been rated at least a 7/10.
