Rated 5 out of 5 stars
It's all about the snarky one liners!
Animated comedies feel like a dime a dozen right now. Some hit, some miss, but this one stands out as truly unique. A must own!

A funnier sophomore season!
Rare are those shows that actually grow and show improvement with each subsequent season. This is one of those shows...
While the first season focused mainly on the ensemble aspects, it still revolved mostly around the title character. I am, in no way, taking anything away from Season One. It still stands head and shoulders above the typical sitcom dribble that pollutes network TV. However...I have to say that I laughed like I haven't in years watching the second season.
The supporting cast was definitely more fleshed out (as much as you can in an animated series). The cancer themed episodes, while gut bustingly hilarious at times, also showed a side to Sterling that wasn't there in season one...a bit of a soft side. Pam, Cheryl, and Krieger each had several times to shine as stand alone characters of interest. I have to give the MVP of season two to Pam, though. Her past is more brought to light and the "kidnapping" episode really shows you just how strong her character is (literally and figuratively). Lana, Cyril, and Malory still seem pretty one dimensional...but each have their moments in the sun this season as well.
Hands down...still one of the funniest and smartest comedies in TV history.
The writing in this series does not get any more on point- just the premise shows the absurdity of political correctness invading every facet of our lives & slams every new taboo ever created- I imagine there is more material to draw from for the next 20 seasons before becoming tired
