Fact is if the trailers are any indication this whole thing is just bad news for GL.Who greenlighted this piece of crap? I want them all fired.

This is the dawn of the new age. Im sure this show will be fantastic, CG haters be prepared cos everything will be CG from here on now.

Uhhh... I can see what they're going for with that style, but it looks really ugly and weird in CGI.

This is the dawn of the new age. Im sure this show will be fantastic, CG haters be prepared cos everything will be CG from here on now.

If future CG cartoon shows look as good as this show, then I have absolutely no problem with studios producing more CG cartoons. My only problem with this show is that the character design for Hal looks very weird in 3 dimensions. The aliens, and Carol look fine in this art style, but Hal's body doesn't look quite right to me. I don't understand the hatred for the CG cartoons, the quality has come a long way since "Reboot", a show I thought was ugly back when it came out.

Fugly looking but, well, maybe the writing is going to be good.

Maybe.

I disagree. For it's time, it was quite good. It was certainly ground breaking. It was mostly disappointing in that they did a show about computer programs so as to excuse the animation. CG has come a long way since then, and they no longer feel the need to explain away it's shortcomings as style choices. Because those shortcomings no longer limit what they can do.
