The series follows the anthropomorphic adventures of feathered, furry and feral populations of New York City in the midst of a midlife crisis. The first season opens with a rat getting mating tips from his friend at a subterranean party; a pair of police horses complaining about an old acquaintance; a bedbug having a midlife crisis.
An amiable and ambling amusement but rarely much more than that, Animals is most notable for how weirdly committed it is to furthering a sense of inner-city ennui.
It's in that cleverness that Animals could develop a loyal audience, but its very specific tone and alienating animation also makes it a hard sell. Luckily for those in the former camp there will be time to spread the word.
Animals is a comedy that largely ignores character and story, choosing instead to lean almost solely on its concept, which isn't even that funny or original to begin with.
The deadpan approach only enhances the delicious off-the-wall comedy of Animals. The series is batty and brilliant as it turns the whole notion of anthropomorphic cartoon animals on its fuzzy ear.
In a sea of new television offerings, it's hard to dismiss something with as strong and focused a voice as this, even if it may not be your cup of tea.
