Careercow Hayden Black - Untalented comedian with a string of failures including the infamous Gen Zed; suspended from Twitter

Being a psycho and violent cis white male, he's probably going to be in most of the physical humor. So his animation is likely more dynamic because of that.

Yeah, that's true. But if it's just one character with dynamic motions and everyone else looking botched as heck- because all humans are dynamic in some way, and I'd think they'd want to fix the rest of the sucky tweening jobs- it's really only that one character pulling all of the weight aesthetic-wise. I wouldn't really expect them to consider such a thing. Only in a perfect world, I suppose.

He looks like a poor man's Johnny Bravo.

You take that back.

I mean a very, very, very poor man.

Since when has the promo in the OP been there? I just watched it again and there were several subtle and not-so-subtle differences to the original promo (for instance this one replaces the Bill Cosby rape joke with "... more apartments than Bill Cosby drugged dates"). When did that happen

You know your product is shit when you have to go back and edit the promo.

I'm not sure. You think someone he actually listens to might have told Hayden a rape joke is probably not super well planned for an SJW pandering show?

It's okay because Bill Cosby has become an honorary white person, and as such it's okay to smash the patriarchy and rape culture at his expense.

I wonder if this show will have Tumblr-speak? Like, a character will say something stupid, and another will just say, "This."

And then the whole bus cheered.

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, honestly. It's just...... Just look at her damn you!

I think she's a tranny highlander. She fights and absorbs the chins of lesser trannies. It's the only explanation for her chin.

South Park didn't have crappy animation, though. Simple isn't crappy. Gen Zed is crappy.

The way I see it, South Park has a distinctive art style which started because they had a tiny budget and a week to produced new episodes in. If you look at the modern episodes the quality has been massively improved and has proper CGI, 3D perspectives and smooth animation.
I'll grant that the South park team has a much larger budget to play with nowadays but my point remains.
They also seem to be missing the point that South Park succeed because it was funny as hell and completely new. It had jokes and characters that were edgy and hilarious. It didn't give a fuck if you were offended by it. In fact it revelled in that fact. It wanted you to be offended and laugh at it anyway.

Gen Zed will be the opposite. It will not dare make a joke outside of the Progressive Approved guidelines. It will play it safe and only make jabs at acceptable targets (White America, Christians, Right-wingers) and spout their beliefs freely. They're not edgy at all. They don't even know what "edgy" means. The Breakfast Club wasn't edgy. Weren't they supposed to be a bunch of losers and outcasts who found friendship in each other?

Spoiler: And another thing!

If Shona really wants to be a stand up comedian, she's really, really, going to have to do better than complaining about Twitter.
How the hell is "born too late for all the good Twitter handles" a joke? Twitter was created in 2006, which means that Shona (26) would have been 17. How the hell is "born too late"?

Considering editted promos, has this one been posted yet?

Yeah, it's by @Oglooger.

You know, I came to the realization this evening that Gen Zed is comparable to the failed animated sitcom Allen Gregory. What is Allen Gregory, you may ask? Well if you didn't catch it on Fox, here's the wikipedia page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allen_Gregory

I watched a few episodes back in the day when it was still on air, and just as I predicted after giving up on the third episode, the show was cancelled right after season 1. Gen Zed suffers from the same problems that Allen Gregory does:

- They both play on current culture far too much to the point where, like @Piga Dgrifm said, will be dated in a few years. Allen Gregory played on the recession, which isn't as bad now as it was back when, especially given it was kind of the show's main focus.

- Gen Zed plays the tranny card, Allen Gregory plays the gay card. Seriously, some characters in Allen Gregory just felt almost stereotypically gay without going into camp gay territory. And really, the whole premise of the show just seemed to focus too much on a kid being raised by his father and father's gay lover.

- Both share similar art styles. While Allen Gregory did have some decent animation (Wasn't as clunky as Gen Zed is, plus from what I can remember they didn't have many animation fuck ups like missing legs, missing frames, etc.), the art style has some similarities to Gen Zed.

- The jokes. My god, do both Gen Zed and Allen Gregory lack humor. They try hard, but fall flat on their asses. Although, I gotta give Allen Gregory some credit here. There was potential for some good humor, and I even got a couple chuckles out of the first two episodes, but it all just fell apart in the end. But unlike Allen Gregory, Gen Zed has no potential. It's just passive aggressive comment and pop culture reference after passive aggressive comment and pop culture reference, following by a dime store Trevor Philips "popping" a mentally challenged black kid in the dick.

Shit, I wonder how he got roped into this...

How Ironic! Doesn't make the writing of the show any better or the animation less crappy!

Brainwashed, I assume. His former self is gone for good - he's an SJW now, praying to God every night that he'll free him from the privileged life of a CISHETMALE.
