Broadcast Fall 2024 TV Review:

Fox

Universal Basic Guys: It centers on two brothers, Mark and Hank Hoagies, who lose their jobs to automation and are given $3,000 a month in a new basic income program. Now, they're using their free time and free money to find purpose in a world where they're no longer needed. 

Verdict: Cancelled: When will Fox get the message?! Stop renewing shows before it even premiers! I know executives watch the pilot episode before green lighting it but this one is worse than the rest of the ones they renewed before it started. First off the animation looks terrible and weird. The voice acting is terrible and I know it is by the two brothers who made this show but they should have hired people who can do voice acting. The theme song is terrible and it is the only thing that explains the situation the two main characters are in because the pilot sure didn’t.  There are too many bad, terrible, sophomoric humor and jokes. Most of the writing is terrible too as most episodes don’t make sense. They are trying too hard to be Family Guy with a fat idiot doing dumb things in every episode. If he does something dumb or terrible it doesn’t bother him from one episode to another with his hi-jinks just without it being as funny. Only Fred Armisen lending one voice does it give any credit to the show but his character doesn’t matter.
