    Amazing Digital Circus for me. Sad that I know people who didnt watch the show just because they wanted to avoid the fans.

      I have never met ADC fans outside of cons, and there they seemed very fun.

        The only fans I ever met irl were at the movie theater for the finale, and they were cool. The online community is, from what I’ve heard, pretty unwell.

      A friend of my fiancee is a fan and put an episode on when we were over once.

      I’m autistic but I’m not that fucking autistic. It takes a lot to make me cringe, but that show does it every other line, and seeing the friend squee at this strange rapey clownshow was almost enough for me to ask if we were sure about including them in the wedding party.

          Yeah what the hell there is no actual or implied sexual violence in the show. Or sex at all for that matter, thats explicitly stated

        it’s existential horror with absurd comedy elements. Pretty much the definition of “not for everyone”, so it’s not surprising some (most?) people strongly dislike it.

          Yup. I recognize it’s not for me, and I recognize that had it not been for that cringe fan pushing it on us I might have given it a proper chance (much like Rick & Morty, a show I will never watch but still absolutely despise because of the fans).
