Screener Squad: Strange Planet

Strange Planet Series Review

STRANGE PLANET SERIES REVIEW

In the archives of the ancient past of 2019, the ones and zeros driving the super information highway would often be implemented to spread joy on the daily. Images and captions would would work in unison to create what the inhabitants of Earth would call a webcomic. Nathan W. Pyle, the life giver of the comic known as Strange Planet has been given the honour by Apple TV Plus to adapt his creation with the assistance of Dan Harmon (Rick and Morty) and a vast assortment of voice actor comedians such as Tunde Adebimpe, Demi Adejuyigbe, Lor Tan Chinn, Danny Pudi, Hannah Einbinder, Shelby Young, and many others. The series follows an assortment of alien beings as they experience day to day life searching for ways to give that life meaning. Some ways might seem bizarre. From the irritations of flying machines, to the stress of tiny creature ownership, to raising offspring and respecting your own life givers. Bradly, TC, and Harmoni discuss the series’ quiet, hopeful, and hilarious first season and decide if the slice of life deserves a second season.

Bradly Martin (Screener Squad, Eye on the Prize, Breakfast Pub)

Bradly Martin was born in the united states and grew up on a healthy diet of sports, films, and books. A rather shy lad who kept to himself, Bradly soon discovered the best way to know a person was to know what people liked. Throughout the years Bradly became a fan of many things and a fanatic of none. From Doctor Dre, to Doctor Strange and the who’s who of Whos. From Playstation to the Dreamcast and Marvel to DC. From LeBron James to James Bond and Lord of the Rings to Lord Palmerston (or Pitt the Elder if you agree with Wade Boggs) and is a huge fan of dad jokes and randomly obscure Simpsons references. Armed with a vast knowledge of comics, films, and pop culture. Bradly traveled the world making friends and sharing takes. As a young man Bradly married the love of his life young and grew older every year with each new child brought into the brood. If trends continue, Scientists predict that .2% of Canada (where Bradly and family reside) will be populated by Bradly’s children by the year 2029. You can hear him leading and listening to his favorite critics on the Screener Squad and Eye on the prize and maybe even provide some comments of his own.

Harmoni Anderson (Screener Squad, Highly Suspect Reviews, Unstabletop Gaming)

Harmoni is a mermaid-haired, millennial, rum drinking, Section 31, Slytherin (who’s divorced J.K. Rowling) preschool/nursery teacher and multi genre geek who also loves all things film, tv, fashion, makeup, and an embarrassingly huge BTS stan. Like really embarrassing. As in, mention them and then sit back and watch the insanity. Harmoni likes being able to game and talk movies/TV with people that aren’t 3 feet tall or all that demanding of her. Plus she can curse at us and not get fired….so bonus!
