One more review this month of the animated series, Smiling Friends, that just wrapped up its second season. Had a good bit to say about it and hopefully approached it with a right amount of nuance. The July update is coming soon so look forward to that! :D

Good review! I'm glad you brought up the maleness of the show...it really seems like there should (and possibly will!) be a female Smiling Friend in the near future. It would open up a lot of jokes and stories

Thanks, glad I'm not the only one who noticed. I agree, and I think the easiest solution would be to use Charlie's girlfriend more. Honestly though, it's fine the main cast is all guys if that's all they know. The real issue is them actively writing women and minorities in poor/demeaning ways. At the end of the day, its not hard to change it, its just up to them if they even see it worth fixing. Thanks again! :D

great read, don't wanna be that guy, but charlies girlfriend is actually named Zoey, lol

oh you're right! turns out it was in the subtitles, thx for the head's up I'll remove the unnamed part lol.

great review! agree on everything.. i would love to see more wacky female critters, i agree that most "main" female characters being humanlike is so boring. as funny as the show is, it is still run by two white dudes lol

Good review! I had not heard of this show but I'm surely going to give it a try now.
