Not even that (though Gooseworx loves insisting it is to pretend it has more depth than it actually has, kinda like comic book movie writers putting the title of a novel in their movies' names as if that gives them more weight). The whole thing is ripped off from a Black Mirror episode in 2017 that handled the premise far better and more concisely.

And that's a good thing

>>220303130
Knowing about this episode also spoils the incredible obvious incoming plot twist that the "people" in the circus can't escape because they're not their original selves, they're AI copies.

>>220303130
that episode also ripped off i have no mouth and i must scream

>>220303194
USS Callister did far more to meaningfully differentiate itself from No Mouth than TADC has managed to do for itself from Black Mirror OR No Mouth.
>>220303172
Predicting the series will end with a "bittersweet" ending with the circus residents escaping into the wider internet, since that's how the USS Callister protags handled it.

I'm gonna fuck that clown

>>220303082
Anybody with even a little bit of scifi media literacy understood pretty quickly what the inspiration for TADC was. The trick is always presentation.

>>220303172
I have a feeling that will be the case

What annoys me the most about this entire show is that, none of the characters react logically to the situation of being emprisonned.

And you get this in every piece of media where characters are trapped somewhere. You start exploring the various ways of how to escape and the rules of the prison that are in place so you can try and bend them to escape.
- Exit 8 (2025)
- Cube (1997)
- The platform (2019)
etc etc.
All written by man applying logic to a bizzare scenario. This show instead is obviously written by a woman who lacks that very basic ability.

Every episode is about drama, mental and emotional issues etc.

A logical character written by a man that enters the circus would have started asking several questions instead of talking about how insecure the manchild bunny guy is.

- Have you explored the entire circus? How far does it go? Any secret areas?
- What is the chronological order in which all of you arrived? Could you quantify the time you think you've been here?
- Question the AI throughly. If it's an AI it might have to obey prompts or commands. Try to ask it to give you admin powers etc.
-Asked alot about abstraction to other figures and specially Caine.
- If King has been here for so long, why didn't he abstract like the others?
- Why does the wacky amnesia character get sudden lapse of sanity?
- Why not try to figure how to make those more common and ask even more information.

Instead we have to wait for the second to last episode for characters to FINALLY start sharing info with each other about their predicament. This weird thing happened with king that could help us escape, I'm just going to reveal it now after being here for what, days/weeks/months?

>transsexual show trending on /tv/

no way...

also, /co/ is two blocks down, ma'am.

>A logical character wouldn't do all thess things that drive the author's story
You're going to shit yourself when you discover sitcoms.

>>220303082
Nah what it is is porno goon fuel, this jestern owns my goey nut!!!!

I want Jax to shit on my face

>>220303524
When the totally unexpected reveal that the characters are all AI copies drops people are gonna cope that all the bad decisions of the characters happen because they are programmed to stay in the circus or some shit.

>>220303668
Well thats where you see a real story teller compare to a hack one.
It's your story, make up shit. The sky could be green because of an alien plankton in the air WHATEVER! If you have to make your characters retarded and unappealing for whatever tale your weaving to make sense then you story is pointlessly contrived and you are shit at telling stories.

>>220303082
And that's a good thing

how did this inoffensive show get so fucking popular?

>>220303772
True. I know that every time I have experienced reality challenging events like alien invasions, AI revolutions, or demonic incursions I have always relied on my entirely average mastery of logic, emotional intelligence, and self control to quickly and efficiently navigate every puzzle, hazard, and setback to return my life to normal.

>>220303082
Troon show

>>220303524
>This show instead is obviously written by a woman
Well uh...

>>220303908
It's popular among creepy discord troons who come over and shit the board up. You'll never hear a soul mention it irl

My coworkers talk about it, and I've seen customers wearing merch. Maybe you don't go outside?

degenerate or based?

>this youtube show that jumped to netflix and is getting a theatrical release for its finale is only popular with the negligible fraction of a percentage point that is the trans population. I know this because my narrow life experiences are representative of the majority opinion, despite the preceding sentence suggesting otherwise.
You are very smart and probably a handsome sex haver who everyone likes to be around.

>>220303082
I dont get this comparison at all. The only similarity is that theres an AI in it that gets angy. He doesnt even do that until the second to last episode and then they just kill him. Not very AM like at all.

>>220304466
You don't understand, if I can boil the show down to a single sentence then I can dismiss it as le bad troon show

>>220304993
i actually think its a repetitive but above average troon show
