    They take what could be a good premise, a cartoon superhero, trying to relate to an ordinary teenage son and turn it into a bunch of low moral BS, typical of hollywood degenerates. Yeah I get it, there is an imperative to continue the demoralization of the US population. But I never laughed once at their utter stupidity.

    Rather I got angry and insulted that they passed this drivel off as entertainment. Please fail. Please don't tell me that the US population is actually entertained by this. If so the apocalypse is not far off.    … Expand

    The writing is off and the fact that the main character is animated make the whole scene and all the acting weird, to be honest I consider the show a waste of time and descent actors.

    Brash jokes to the opposite extreme are good for a quick chuckle, but deeper laughs came from the above comparisons many of us find in day-to-day life. Still, what makes Son of Zorn an exciting new series is that it can go to both ends of the spectrum with consistency.

    Meadows was the one minor bright spot as the self-emasculating and self-deprecating therapist. Hines' allusions to a wild, coked-up past, Zorn's workplace woes, Pemberton's teen angst-these were all well-treaded tropes, and likely a missed opportunity for something more clever.
