Review: Bobcat Goldthwait’s Misfits & Monsters “The Buzzkill”

Posted on by

B-e-a-utiful.

Overview (Spoilers Below)

Indie musicians Ben and Leo are transported to a world of bees when a string of events go awry. Whilst making their abode at the honeycomb, the duo land themselves in hot water when one of them makes a pass at the Queen Bee and are sentenced to death. One of them actually gets to hook up with the Queen while the other makes a daring escape that eventually sees the two wake up…or did they?

Our Take

Bobcat takes another stab at animation, though unlike the premiere which saw an animated character in a live-action world, we get a split between an animated and live-action episode. However, this week’s episode is no Bee Movie, in fact, the “Jake and Amir” starring episode has all the makings of an adult animated series pilot in a world of bees. We’ve got all the ingredients, sex, action, and quality voice direction from veteran Tom Kenny who cameos as a turtle. Bobcat Goldthwait’s fingerprints are all over this one, and if I’m someone at TruTV’s cousin network Adult Swim, I’m taking a look at this one for 10 more episodes.

Score
8.5/10
