I'm CIS white dude who is rapidly approaching 40, the show is not made for me. When the pilot came out I watched it and I was rooting for the production crew; even watching some of the animatics the production crew made while podcasting.

The contents of what I've seen from watching the pilot and a little bit of the full series isn't intended for me. The struggles the characters are going through are hard for me to relate to. I'm also never a fan of Abrahamic religious framing, I find it banal. I wish the production crew the best, but I have no intention of watching more than what I've seen.

I'm jealous then. I wish I could enjoy more things.

I'm also 41, and what little I've seen I have enjoyed. The show is on my todo-list.

I guess MisterNeon might be too young to understand..

I'm going to lean towards I'm too old and crotchety. I became an old man when I was young.

Same IRL situation.

I thought I'd hate it. Especially with the singing, I'm really not into musicals. Ended up absolutely loving it though, partially because of those songs. Poison and You're A Loser are fantastic, as is Happy Day In Hell.

It's just annoying to me. You know when the creator of Ren and Stimpy was able to make an uncensored version of the show and it wasn't funny because he didn't need to write around the restrictions? Vizziepop is like that for Invader Zim. A PG version of the show would almost certainly be funnier because it would force the writer to change up the punchlines. Right now, she uses swearing to punctuate her sentences.

I was never a Hottopic or tumblr type, so the show was definitely not made for me. That being said, all the fans I know irl are cis, white, and at least 50. I also have had to become "a hater" because they can't take the hint that I don't want to watch the show with them otherwise.

I watched and was mildly interested until the singing kicked in, then I had to nope out.

I really enjoyed watching it with some friends. I’m not usually a fan of musicals, but most of the songs were good and paced well enough I actually looked forward to them
