Season 2 Review: Season 2 of Human Resources is the perfect example of how "elevated" humor doesn’t always need to be highbrow. You can include sex jokes, bathroom humor, nonsense, and all kinds of “lower” comedy and still manage to tell heartfelt and riveting stories in the same series — all while being funny as hell within your own context thanks to set-ups, punchlines, callbacks, and everything that makes comedy great.

Season 1 Review: Human Resources not only crafts funnier moments and stronger stories [than Big Mouth], but it also creates more delicious chaos around the emotions and hormonal imbalances its various monsters and creatures are meant to represent, saying even more about how we as humans relate to our feelings.

Season 1 Review: It’s worth watching on its own, but only by watching the episodes leading to it will an audience member achieve the full experience. And it’s fully an experience worth having. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Human Resources introduces the brash, imaginative, and at times, genuinely insane comedy that Big Mouth boasts, once again taking weighty, vulnerable topics and exploring them with bombast and (perhaps a little too much) confidence. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Human Resources proves that there’s both comedy and poignancy yet to be mined from the impulse-creature conceit, even if it can’t fully expunge the aura of being an arbitrary spin-off. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The result is a show that’s pretty consistently hilarious, if you like the deranged thing Big Mouth does, but inconsistently involving on the emotional levels that make Big Mouth so special. Read full review

Season 2 Review: Human Resources Season 1 was abominably bad, and this season continues the streak. There’s nothing wrong at all with even the most disgustingly raunchy comedy, but this series takes it so far beyond that it turns back in on itself in terms of how bad it is. Its characters are unlikeable, its story unentertaining, and its jokes unfunny. Read full review

This show is pretty good but a definite step down from Big Mouth. Keeping the focus on the monsters is a less rewarding experience because the balance between the two worlds is what made Big Mouth great.

If you're a fan of Big Mouth, this show is basically the equivalent of a cake made entirely out of frosting. The monsters are great in Big Mouth because they add a layer of absurdity and extravagance. When you strip out the core, you're not left with any balance to that.

Even then, it could work if the monsters themselves had enough appealing, well-formed characters, but none of the new characters are particularly interesting, and the ones we know lose a lot without their human counterparts.… Expand

I hated Big Mouth so its no surprise to me I didn't like this. Reminds me of Family Guy, which I also don't care for.
