The Adult Swim Pilot of this series was great. Somehow, that gold got turned into garbage by Crackle.
First, the jokes got more predictable.
More importantly, though, they added the hackneyed Captain America character. G-d, if this schtick hadn't already been played out by Drawn Together and Stephen Colbert and American Dad, and pretty much every other hack comic of the past 10 years it might be tolerable. But the 50's traditional American hero made to look like an ignorant, jingoistic buffoon is just old and boring. Yawn.
Not sure what changed between the pilot and this episode, but the new staff should be fired. Same old hackneyed crap you see everywhere.
