Q-Force

A few too many of the jokes are dated and easy, although the show leans so far into its cheesy sense of humor that it becomes increasingly likable as the season goes on. It’s a show that’s comfortable with viewers groaning at a few of its easy targets and trusts that fans will stick with it as a very sharp writer’s room and strong voice cast get over the growing pains of a first season.

While “Q-Force’s” attempt to renovate its genre is admirable, a hypothetical next season would do well to focus on getting the fundamentals of character and tone nailed down. That’s a mission that, given what strengths are already in evidence on a flawed but promising series, ought to be entirely possible.

The first 10 episodes of Q-Force didn’t offend me, nor were they soulless appropriation of queer culture. Instead, the show is a somewhat typically bumpy start for a comedy trying to find its voice, or at least trying to find out how to make that voice funny.

Q-Force feels like a missed opportunity to present LGBTQ characters in a light that doesn’t necessarily point to their queerness with such a big, 1990’s-style arrow. But we’re holding out hope that the show gets better during the first season.

The cast includes Wanda Sykes, Laurie Metcalf, Gary Cole and David Harbour, all doing their best with what they have, but limited by oddly old-fashioned jokes. The cultural references are so dated I started to wonder if it was deliberate, a retro choice, like midcentury modern sideboards or moustaches.

In spite of being created by a number of queer individuals, the series’ much-touted representation is mostly lazy stereotypes and dialogue, less designed for incisive storytelling than promoting a brand’s purported inclusivity.

“Q-Force” had the opportunity to explore themes like gender identity or society’s relationship with sex. Instead, all we get are shallow attempts at comedy that mock a community rather than honor it.

I honestly really enjoyed this series, as a gay man, and as a person who likes animated shows. I really it gets renewed for a new season.

I can't claim to belong to the LGBT+ community so I can't judge the show on that end. I thought I was going to find this show incredibly cringey, and to be honest, there are some moments that I get that, but over all I do find the show funny.

Coming off severely undercooked the 1st season of this polarizing show holds so much potential it hasn't articulated yet. The storytelling is lazy, the punchlines underwhelming and nothing idiosyncratic to at least hold the show together. I have high hopes for the show if it can get a better writing room to take a strong premise to where it deserves to be.
