    All told, “Hit-Monkey” is a prime example of a show that has all the makings of a good time, with a ridiculous, borderline silly plot and a talented cast and crew to bring it to life, but somehow everything is botched along the way.

I found the focus on blood, gore, and sexploits to be disgustingly overemphasized! I was totally disappointed with Marvel at producing this series. Where some may find it "funny", I found it to lack any sense of real comedy. Sadly, I couldn't make it through the 1st episode, not that gore bothers me, it was the lack of watchable "content" that did. Full Review »

I had to double check that Jason Sudeikis was the lead because I couldn't believe he delivered his dialog so badly. Supposed funny dialog is just unfunny.
    All that's left is murder porn and gross out moments, which doesn't bother me, but it's not like this wants to be 'Spawn'.
    The writers/cast/director apparently think they're funny and are trying to make 'Archer'.
    I barely made it through the first episode. You couldn't pay me to watch a second. Watch 'Archer' instead.

Throughly enjoyed it. Voice acting was great and while it didnt blow my mind, it entertained me and had me laughing at the absurdity of many of the situations that coalesced from the many odd parts involved. Full Review »
