Long Story Short

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

Long Story Short is such an incredible and special show with unique art and animation. The dialogue was hilarious and naturally built into the chaos of the Schwooper family. All of that in tandem with the timeline of events being set non-chronologically to give weight or context to the character’s trauma and how it influenced them overtime was so impressively done. There was quite a large focus on the Jewish faith since it is a Jewish family, but it didn’t detract from the show for me as I found the plotlines involving it to be very interesting. My only issue is the show needs more episodes. There was so many great characters and relationships that had to be set up this season that it felt like there is still a lot more potential to be explored.

A great show with relatable characters and storylines. The perfect balance between funny and sad.

How beautiful and funny 'Long Story Short' is, a decade-spanning comedy that follows a Jewish family as they experience disappointments, drama, fights, and absurdities over the course of a year. Not as dark as 'Bojack Horseman.' Think of it as 'The Simpsons' meets 'Boyhood,'

Tem um carinho muito especial pelos judeus e sua cultura, mas tirando o primeiro capítulo, o capítulo onde focam no relacionamento lésbico, e o capítulo da venda dos colchões, o restante pareceu bem genérico, pois basicamente é uma série de episódios nao lineares, focando cada episódio em um personagem ou momento específico. Ainda assim, por mais irregular que seja, fiquei com a sensação de que o esforço de terminar tenha valido à pena devido eles conectarem bem cada laço de parentesco ao final.
