When the pilot episode of The Amazing Digital Circus debuted on Youtube on October 14, 2023, it did so with an exceptional bang. The episode has surpassed over 270 million views since its launch, becoming one of the most-watched animation pilots in Youtube history.

It’s easy to see why the pilot went viral in the first place. The episode has a twisted sense of humor and features jokes delivered with to-the-frame perfection. Its sense of humor is mature enough to appeal to adult audiences without getting overly vulgar. Aesthetically, The Amazing Digital Circus offers something that feels familiar without ever feeling cliche. The cg animation is bright and fun, recalling the early years of the art form, yet sharp and clean, giving it a modern feel.

Just finished it, rated it 7. Probably more popular with under 30s.

I just finished the first three episodes (the first one being a rewatch). I initially rated the pilot a 7. I had literally forgotten 99 percent of it. I bumped it up to an 8. The rest I gave a 9. It's pretty interesting so far. I think I like it better than Murder Drones. I'd rank Hazbin Hotel (pilot and first A24/Amazon episode) and Lackadaisy (pilot) as my top two of the big indie toons.
