So far it really sucks


Too much improv-bantering, not enough writing. I get so sick of that directing style where they let the actors banter and then leave that as a take. It’s the lazy way to kick out a script.

So far every scene and gag as fallen flat. No laughs to be had. It’s also extremely woke and manages to “apologize” for every white-male moment. They also have the new “catch-all” minority characters: black, gay, females. If you want to see an edgy superhero show watch Invincible or The Boys - both actually have a story and a script.

Yes it sucks... but I don't think it is improv, I think it is just really bad writing.

Improv? This is based on what?

Invincible has no story at all. It's just animated gore.

If it's *not* improv and it's an actual script like thomas998 says - god help us all. Because it's utter garbage. I agree the story is thin for Invincible. But the writing is good and the acting sells it all quite well.

I take it all back. I was wrong. I loved it.
