Funny, smart, and surprisingly deep- The Midnight Gospel brings both a new standard for cartoons and television with its brave attempt to try for something truly original and unique, and it's almost perfect attempt at succeeding. The show is created by Adventure Time showrunner and creator Pendleton Ward, and his very ambitious new approach his very welcoming and very peculiar- in the best of ways. The shows characters and messages are very layered and the show wastes no time getting to the bottom of them. It's both a very unique approach to storytelling and format, and it feels very refreshing to watch. There are occasionally a few dull moments in 2 episodes that I remember, mainly one more than the other, but besides those moments, the show is very consistent and continuous with its success at storytelling and its very peculiar sense of enjoyment. The Midnight Gospel is not only very unique and original, but also incredibly deep and thought provoking- diving in on ideas, concepts, and many inner struggles that many face, and giving them all a new perspective to look at. It's a breathtaking, and incredibly successful attempt at trying something new, and I can't wait for more episodes as soon as possible. Here's hoping the show goes on!
My Rating: 9.75/10
