The Legend of Vox Machina |
I wrote off The Legend of Vox Machina after watching the first couple episodes. It felt like Guardians of The Galaxy but in a D&D universe. It tried too hard to be vulgar and immature. The band of misfits were actually way too good at their jobs to have such a terrible reputation. There were a lot of things. I kept watching though because I'm a sucker for sword and sorcery and the episodes are under 30 minutes (something more shows should do). By the end of the first season, I was on board. There are still things that irk me, but it is highly entertaining.
