its pretty funny, just not as funny as its given credit for. i think 'don't hug me i'm scared' and its sequels nailed the humour a bit more and are a little less derivative

The past few days have been weird. I've heard 'Too Many Cooks' over and over, but I had no idea what it was until I clicked your link. I gathered that it was a show, but for some reason I got the impression it was some old British show. You have to admit it does sound like an old British show. Well, now I know it's a "surrealist anti-comedy" show on Adult Swim. Honestly, I like that sort of thing, so I'll probably like this too.

I stopped watching halfway through. I did enjoy the first few minutes though. I didn't expect it to keep going.

It's alright. It starts off with a bit of a Tim and Eric vibe, but then pushes the joke too far until it becomes tiresome. The rest is interspersed with some decent filler gags, but that's about it.

I don't use Twitter, so excuse my ignorance, but aren't those people on your feed your friends?

But even if they're not your friends, why is it so bad that a lot of people are enthusiastic about something? Maybe you should watch this show, and if you like it, you could join them in being enthusiastic about it.

Watched like half of it and I didn't laugh yet so I turned it off.

I get that it's supposed to be ironically funny or whatever and it worked until it kept going and going and going and going and

To enjoy this, you absolutely have to watch past the first 3 minutes, where at that point it finally breaks the monotony and becomes creative and interesting.

I didn't finish it because it was only moderately funny and went on too long maybe I'm aging out of Adult Swim's target demographic


(e: specifically I watched up to the part where they're in space)

I would bet you actual cash dollars most posters in this forum are over the age of 25 which puts us outside the demographic of most things, yes

The video was kinda funny, but I really don't see how they're going to make this into a series without the joke running dangerously thin.
