Blizzard is managed by dark sorcerers, and probably have enough money to bail-out the federal government.

I tried. I really did. I love H. Jon Benjamin in pretty much everything else he's done. But I just can't get into it.

I like it because of Eugene Mirman and Kristen Schaal. There's some cute bits. But I'm pretty sick of H. Jon Benjamin, since he's been doing stuff on AS for years.

I can understand not liking H Jon Benjamin (I think he's pretty solid in everything he's done), but "they're prolific" usually isn't a real justification for it.

Well, Coach Mcgurk (sp?) always got under my skin. The screaming and what not. From then on I just hear the coach when he's in anything.

And yeah, being prolific can be a reason to not like someone when you're already not a fan of their work. Because they show up everywhere.

He's kind of like the Adam Sandler of cartoons to me.

Another example is how lots of people got sick of Jim Carrey in the 90s.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

So you don't like them because you don't like them for personal reasons, not because they happen to be in a lot of stuff.  Okay.

I like it. It took me a few episodes but I find it to be a good show.

Sort of finished and awaiting remix due to loss of most recent song file before addition of drums:
