And thats a matter of taste and completely valid. I keep feeling that even though it's 'edgy', it will have a bigger chance to charm a younger audience, like below 30, then an older one.

It's edgy. It's kind of original. It SEEMS a bit controversial. It's violent. It's dark.

But that's it. For me, it was just really boring and uninteresting. The ONLY thing in this product that really was a bit interesting to me was the character Starlight. For all the rest I just felt like I was watching the latest Seth Rogan show. Full of edgy and 'original' stuff, yes, but oh so empty and superficial. Totally inhabited by flat and completely uninteresting characters.

I made it to episode 5 and I really had to violently DRAG myself there.
