(Pure Adorable Talent, Targeting Only the Niche)
Sadly Oswalt and Blum's extremely specific take on one of the more outlandish Marvel villains flew over the gigantic heads of many but I absolutely adored it. Much sharper than the visually similar Robot Chicken, beautifully animated and with a fantastic cast - M. O. D. O. K. Manages to wander that fine line between affectionate parody and strangely solid sitcom on its own terms. Recasting the MCU as a stop motion adult animation with some beautifully obscure nods to the canon. It shouldn't have worked and sadly it appears not to have done for quite a few people but it absolutely did it for me. Easily the best Marvel TV show in 2021.
