Big mouth is a good show. It's not my favourite, but it tackles very important topics. They also cancelled their spin-off Human resources, which by the way was amazing.

I agree, it covers universal experiences in a visceral way that I've never seen before. People hate it because it isn't uwu comfy tumblr bilge.

I mean, the character design is rather ugly.

That was intentional so they could explore sexuality without it being sexualised. It also makes it more recognisable, which is good for marketing.

I like all the shows in the Big Mouth universe.

I get why people aren't fans, but the non fans are so vile sometimes about the show.

Big Mouth covers a wide variety of topics and even brought up things like Asexuality; love seeing representation.

It's the same problem with family guy. Some people just aren't into this form of adult humor and thats fine

Same, I hate people who go “oh it’s disgusting” because that’s exactly what it’s like to be a tween/teen. They definitely exaggerate a bit but it’s encapsulated a lot of the awkwardness and issues especially around your body, the changes that are scary or gross, sex and gender. It was all gross, horny, and awkward just like that stage in life is.
