Storyline

No one seems to know why Dusty Craters, a dilapidated nursing home, is floating through space carrying a colorful assortment of grumpy old folks under the care of an evil goat doctor. But then again nothing seems to make sense in a world where a talking two-dollar bill lives in a Cracker Jack box and a three-eyed ape just might be the center of the universe. Best friends Roosi and Big Man uncover these mysteries and more as they go on one epic adventure after another in this buddy comedy.

Fantastic show with loads of potential

I was really impressed by the first season of Liverspots and Astronots. There are two main strong points that stand out for me, Animation and Characters.

Animation: Now of course trying to compare this style of animation to something much higher budget like Rick & Morty wouldn't be fair. But I really enjoy this style of animation and find it quite unique. Some close up still images remind me of Ren & Stimpy or Spongebob and I love this. I love shows where you want to pause and take a closer look at things.

Characters: This is where this show has the potential to shine. Having so many unique characters in a show is a fantastic structure to build multiple stories around, without the risk of getting bored. All the characters have been well thought out and designed, some voice were a little unsuited (robots) but overall I felt most were spot on. This is also the first animation show I have seen with Colin Mochrie lending his voice to and I thought he done extremely well. There is loads of room to grow and play around with character and I am very excited to see where they take some characters, maybe adding in some character arcs long term would be good.

The only real negative thing I don't like about Liverspots and Astronots is the running time. It is just too short. In order to feel fully immersed in a show I think you need more build ups, more depth and feel like the you are going along on the adventure with the character themselves and having a longer running time would greatly help with this. I am not sure since it was with Facebook Watch maybe they has time restrictions or perhaps because of budget requirements but either was I hope we will be many more seasons with much longer running times.

Animation: 8/10 Characters: 9/10 Voices: 8/10 Overall: 8/10

Great show guys and gals PLEASE KEEP MAKING MORE!
