This is an adult animated show that is as funny as the characters lives could be if these kinds of things and creatures were present at that age. As far as comedy goes this show is a 10/10. The comedic writing and timing have been great!
And while I would recommend this show to any adult with a solid upbringing in education and common sense, it is for the total opposite end of those two traits I would recommend this show be cancelled.
The social-liberal agenda underlying this show is without a doubt reprehensible. The nudity, comedy, and hilarious writing cannot overshadow the concentrated subliminal indoctrination that are focal points in this series. The formula here is the same that has been and is being used in most of animation for the last several years; that edict being, _**"Since it is 'make-believe' or 'a cartoon' it's okay to express same sex relationships, gender identity views/politics, and the manipulation of gender norms through them. Just make with the comedy and everything else will be overlooked."**_ (no, It won't)
I do not know if these conditions are presented to the creator as mandatory by the company execs to get the show green-lit, or if these points are just expressions of the creator and his writing team; but the nefariousness of injecting these culturally minimal abnormal issues through a child's medium is downright socially treasonous.
* No, males cannot get pregnant
* No, males cannot breast-feed
* No, teen kids do not struggle with sexuality if there are two parents in the home; much less middle school kids.
* No, girls are not stronger than guys
* No, guys can't be girls
* No, there are NOT more than two genders
* No, there is no such thing as "toxic masculinity."
* No, there is no gender pay gap
* No, being a stay-at-home mother is not weakness
* No, going between two homes of divorced parents is not great; it sucks. The only positive is that they can't be shitty parents by arguing in front of you.
* NO!! PARENTS SHOULD BE PARENTS and make sure kids under 16 years old cannot watch this show!!!
Big Mouth is a marvelous show in its creation; the idea behind it is genius. But some of the things mentioned above should not be available for just anyone to watch. They are seriously not issues that a young mind can have perspective on and deduce comedic fun/license from viable reality. Unfortunately people born after 1984, seem to be really, really, really...really shitty parents.
I was not impressed with the lastest season of Big Mouth. I especially didn't care for Maury being pregnant, Jay & Matthew's relationship, Jessi's gender assignment pronoun bullshit hang ups, Missy's black family being riddled with single-moms, gay daughters, and "asexual" old women, not to mention her father being a feministic ally (even though all that shit is accurate AF). I found last season's lovebug Walter being "flamer-lite" a bit patronizing. And though black women do damn-near have a patent on Nasty Attitude & Bitterness, it too was a bit patronizing most of the lovebugs/Hate-worms were American afrocentric.
Okay (whew!) Last time...If you can get past all of that, then this show is funny AF!! Truly. There are some people, adult or teen, who can't watch this show and be entertained. There are some who can and have a great time. But if worse comes to worse, I would recommend--if you care about your kids under 16--that you child-lock this show.
Good luck in your viewing!! -- Bob --

the cartoon is brilliantly funny and a stark reminder to the pitfalls of puberty that most people have gone through in their lives. It serves as a reminder of the awkwardness of that era in almost everyone's lives and does it in a way that's legitimately laugh out loud funny.
And despite what the political viewers on the left and right might say...I think the humor was the point of creating it, it's certainly the reason why I watch it, and the reason why anyone should.
That is, of course, unless you are of the ilk that is determined to read politics into every thing and suck the life out of it like so many people are doing in their reviews.
