Impressions:
I almost skipped this series, but then I saw a clip of "the kiss" and decided to check it out for context. I'm glad I did because this is actually a good watch. The setting is fairly interesting with its off-kilter hybrid critters and such and there's a nice odd couple dynamic with Bisco and Milo. The supporting cast and the villain are also rather good, so you shouldn't be left wanting in the character department. Production values are quite good as well. This is OZ's debut work and if the studio can maintain the standard they set here, we can expect good things to come. If you're looking for some solid post-apocalyptic action, give this one a watch.
