Favor, Bryce (MW) Smiling Friends 50
Smiling Friends is an adult animated show created by Zach Hadel and Michael Cusack for Adult Swim. The cartoon focuses on two friends Charlie and Pim as they work for the Smiling Friends Inc. with a mission to be able to cheer up sad people. Throughout the 8 episodes of the show, we see how Charlie and Pim tackle issues differently, but at the end of the day they come together with one mission to make people smile in crazy world that the show takes place. As you would expect, this leads to many fun adventures full of crazy antics, absurd humor, and even some heartfelt moments. At first glance Smiling Friends might seem like an average adult cartoon, but when watching you will realize that it is truly something special as it pushes the envelope of the medium with witty dialogue and experimental animation. Smiling Friends is available to stream on HBO Max and is already renewed for a second season which will premiere on Adult Swim.
