Season 1 Review: Not since Freaks and Geeks has adolescent humiliation been handled so warmly. Read full review

Season 1 Review: After a relatively overstated first episode (relative to what follows, that is, not to cartoons as a whole), it settles down into a gentler, more delicate, behind-the-beat groove. Read full review
