Hit-Monkey

When I decided to watch this show, I expected to watch a monkey kill some bad guys. And that's more or less what I got. Monkey does kill a lot of bad guys in well-animated and bloody fights. What I didn't expect was a show with surprisingly good emotional beats, well written characters, and an engaging plot. It's obviously no Shawshank, but if you're looking for a well-made, entertaining watch, you could do a lot worse.

This tv show is very good for me. It is totally for adults due to the violence they have and especially how they show it. It's very entertaining and like everything in marvel it always has a bit of comedy.

With no knowledge of its source material, the series feels different in comparison to other Marvel animated series. The main reason being this isn't targeted towards younger audiences and the violence is more graphic than initially expected.

What makes it work is the characters. The monkey is likeable (although do not understand why he wasn't given a name), Bryce (voiced by Jason Sudeikis) has funny and witty dialogue, and the other supporting characters are interesting. As watched the finale episode, can only wonder how much more anticipation season 2 will be.

Love everything about this show except one and only thing. The animation style is a little rough for me. But other than that this show is amazing, perfect balance of humor, sadness, and serious undertones along with some bad ass action sequences. I first read about hit monkey in the Daniel Way run of Deadpool where he had a pretty short but funny arc with a contract for Deadpool himself. I wish I had followed up on the character with the comic series they decided to make debuting him. But this show is a pretty compelling telling of the hit monkey tale. Not sure how cannon it is to the comics and 10 episodes is just not enough, but it's all around fun. Episode 1 had me hooked for sure. I would compare it to the likes of archer, actually I feel it was influenced by that show which I also enjoy. Only perhaps with the humor toned down just a tad. All in all highly recommend but definitely leave the kiddos out of this one!

MONKE. Man oh man. This show hits all the right spots. Action, gore, humor it's all there. Crazy how they turned the Daniel Way creation into a series. It's a breeze to watch. Bingeworthy!

This is just the kind of work I was waiting for. The Archer-y animation style meets John Wick works surprisingly well for this show.

Is there anything as too much Jason Sudeikis? Not for me. Everything about this show is so bizarre and yet that's exactly why it works.

Very cool. MONKE.
