Shorts Review: Cyanide & Happiness (@explosm) – “The Rope”
Well, the time has finally arrived! New Cyanide and Happiness was dropped yesterday and by the looks of it the guys haven’t missed a beat. Not much has changed in the comedy department on this show, with jokes about pedophiles, pandas, and piano players prevalent here. (Sooooooo many P’s) But I must say that the art seemed to be turned up a notch in this episode. The establishing shot of the mountain was breathtaking. You can really tell that their ridiculously successful Kickstarter paid off for them in spades. Lots of great colors and shadings as opposed to the past when the colors seemed a bit more flat. I am thoroughly impressed with the direction this show is taking and cannot wait until another episode comes out!
Shorts Score – (8/10)
(@chefrichBB) wouldn’t have given them a choice… ::cuts rope::







There's got to be some kind of twist that's going to happen with this. I don't know if they're setting up an April Fool's joke now or what's going on, but it seems too strange that they'd suddenly reverse on doing a fourth and fifth season after the show was already renewed and they were even just talking about working on those seasons like a couple months ago or something. Or maybe the two episodes yet to release will secretly somehow each be like a "season" in themselves?
