Before starting, I must clarify that this is the second series that I observe thanks to a close friend's recommendation. After marathoning it in the last four days, it is clear to me that "Close Enough" is one of the best animated adult shows that has been released in the last year and I would dare to say that it can also be considered as one of several potential long-term hits for the newly launched HBO Max streaming service.

Although Season 1 has some bizarre moments and others that can be slightly boring, it stayed at all times loyal to the series' original premise and as a result, the final product turned out to be satisfying: excellent plot development and execution, very good and charismatic characters that you will feel occasionally identified (especially the audience that is in my age segment, 18 to 29 years), and funny moments that will make you laugh...And most importantly, you don't necessarily need to be a fan of "The Regular Show" to watch it.

The truth is I'm so happy that the series got renewed for two more seasons, since its great potential is more than clear. Now it remains to be seen if the future seasons can continue to maintain the high standards of Season 1 to the point of being a potential contender to other series of the genre such as Rick and Morty, South Park, among others.

It was a bet that paid off well in the end.
