    I rather liked it, though for its form possibly more than for its content. (Note: Subsequent episodes improve on the pilot.)

    Cute, hip, derivative, stupid.

It's refreshing to see a cartoon take a risk at being a period piece, & unlike 99% of TV series set in a specific decade, Moonbeam City totally nails the 80s, from the Patrick Nagel character designs, Lisa Frank color pallet, New Wave sound, to the Memphis postmodern neo expressionist details.
