I watched this because it came up on the top of my list of recommendation, and as always, I will give anything a try that appears up there. I know that this leads to them suggesting more like it but whatever, there is so much to see on Netflix that it doesn't really matter.
I think the main thing that I like about this animated group of unrelated stories is the fact that they all have drastically different themes and are made by different animators. One story is in no way related to the one prior to it (at least, not yet, and I have watched 8 ep's.) The brutality in these shorts is pretty intense and calling it NSFW is deffo correct seeing as how there is a whole lot of violence, gore, and nudity.
I was unaware that each of the episodes are so short until I did something else in the same room, stopped looking at the screen for just a minute and returned to something that didn't make sense in regards to what had been on the screen when I left. The individual stories are around 10 minutes long and these keeps the action fast and furious.
As I mentioned before most of the episodes are done by different animation studios although there are some, such as Blur Studios, who have multiple Ep's. However, they stories, even done by the same studio, are unrelated and are directed by different people. There is only one name that appears over and over in the credits and that is Philip Gelatt. I don't know who that is but he is one of the writer names you see often even though the stories are based on someone else's work.
The animation is so top-tier that many times it appears to be live action and it is just amazing such as is portrayed in my favorite episode so far entitled "The Witness."
Producer Tim Miller has publically stated that the entire idea behind the series was to make a "love letter to nerd" and I can confirm it is definitely that.
That trailer, just like the show, is short, sweet, and intense. The best part about this series is that it takes almost zero of your time and the longest episode is a mere 17 minutes long. You have nothing to lose.
