What went wrong?

Netflix

No idea. Never seen a single second of it, and never encountered anyone who's ever brought it up. If it weren't for this board I'd just assume it was some deviantart done in Simpsons style.

It was just really obvious that their serial plot was pulled from their ass as they went. Should have either planned the whole thing, or not been serialized at all.

It never reaches any audience, the three main characters dynamic as light versions of Leela, Fry and Bender, there is not memorable secondary characters either. but also >>149537668

It was boring and unfunny

>>149537632 (OP)
The writers clearly have no experience of fantasy outside of Game of Thrones, Grimm Fairy Tales, and Keebler Elves. Unlike Futurama which had science and math experts.

>Groening's style
>outdated humor, their attempts to be edgy but not daring too much already fell flat in Futurama
>looking at it reminds us of corpse Simpsons and corpse Futurama
>Futurama was never really funny so why should this be?

There.

Doesn’t help the writers drop the fantasy stuff to focus on steampunk.

Also Bender was basically Poochie and people found him funny for some fucking reason.

One of my biggest problems was Elfo. They set him up as hating elf life because it's to tame and him wanting to go out and get in to trouble, only for him to for some reason be the voice of reason. It should have been the opposite where the elf is the instigator and the imp is the unintentional voice of reason.

Groening became a hack

....besides the fact that it wasn't funny at all?

>>149537632 (OP)
They tried to mix status the quo is king + self aware writing of the simpsons/futurama with a super cereal overarching plot and it didn't work
Also, the show wasn't funny

poorly thought out mystery boxes and the hope that they could get away with underwhelming payoffs by having the characters bemoan the underwhelming payoffs in the story itself.

That is a good point, anon.

Literally everything

Groening can't write good female characters
