SERIES PREMIERE: Ryan Quincy, whose credits as animation director include South Park, gets his own show with this quiet new cartoon series, about freakish and geekish teens in a small, rural Midwestern town. Clearly, it’s a series built from some level of personal experience: Not only is the lead character ordered by his father to accept a job mowing the school football fields in the early morning hours, but the drama inherent in that duty is underscored when he mows, and chops in half, a large snake. The more fanciful stuff may have been more fun to animate, but that’s the part that rattled me. For a full review, see Eric Gould’s Cold Light Reader.
