It seems to be Archer if all the characters were Ray and those two assassins from Miami... cranked up to eleven.
You know, it's shows like this that lead all the bigots into thinking that this is what media will devolve into if they let the 'politics' go unchecked? It's still a dumb line of thinking with no basis in reality, but this junk emboldens them, further which does not help!
I'll still give it a chance, but I expect very little.

Is it?
Is it really?
Or is just a full length version of the Ambiguously Gay Duo? An enormous joke that some people find funny?
Why should fucking people CARE? I'm a deranged Leftist but doesn't look like my bag and I won't watch it. Why would Right people CARE?

Because this is what they think of when they think of anything progressive. They'll be using it as their one example of 'SEE? This is what happens when you let the gays exist in fiction!' for years to come.

Poe's law in action. It's impossible to tell bad "liberal" art from homophobic parodies of it.

Well they're going to complain anyway.
People threw a fucking fit over Finn the Stormtrooper. You know, despite Star Wars already having black people.

But they weren't one of the main characters, which is where these dipwads always take umbrage. As long as they don't get above third billing...

One asshole I knew actually seemed to be pissed because it ruined his fantasy of the Empire as all white people.
I dropped him pretty soon after that.

No basis in reality and yet here it is.
How many shows like this does it take before it constitutes a trend a wonder?

The people I follow who disliked Finn the Stormtrooper disliked it because they thought the Stormtroopers were all clones of Jango Fett AKA a white guy. The moment it was pointed out that this is not in fact the case they went off happy.
Not everything is racism, y'know.

And I just literally cited another example.
Also, why do you feel the need to defend against the possibility of someone being an asshole racist in fandom?
