Screener Squad: Exploding Kittens

EXPLODING KITTENS SERIES REVIEW
This new Netflix series comes from humble kickstarter origins and the twisted mind of The Oatmeal‘s webcomic creator Matthew Inman. It’s inspired a card game, an NSFW version, Plushie merch, and even a pinball table. Now with co-creator Shane Kosakowski, Netflix presents a nine episode animated series based on Exploding Kittens. Ex Navy Seal and current park ranger Abbie Higgins (Suzy Nakamura) is having a bit of a family crisis. Her son Travis (Kenny Yates) is trying to be a 24/7 online persona but he’s got a low to nothing follower count. Her daughter Greta (Ally Maki) cares more about the mystery of life rather than the efficiencies of ending life 200 yards out with a high powered sniper rifle. Abbie’s husband Marv (Mark Proksch) cares more about cosplay and table top then foreplay and who’s on top. In her drunkest moment she reaches out to God (Tom Ellis) who has become apathetic and disinterested over the years. To solve Abbie’s dilemma, the board of angels decide God should live with the Higgins family as a cat. Losing his fab abs and most of his godly powers, God Cat strives to help the Higgins clan bond and become a family unit in order to prove to the board he still has the grace and unconditional love to give to all of us pathetic mere mortals. Also on earth however is a Devil Cat (Sasheer Zamata) who was also exiled to earth for entirely different reasons but not the ones you think! Bradly, Harmoni, and Mike deal out the cards of opinions but only one has the explosive incendiary opinions that will blow this whole review wide open! It’s armacatton at one of us dot net with this animated version of the beloved family game streaming now on Netflix.

Bradly Martin (Screener Squad, Eye on the Prize, Breakfast Pub)
Bradly Martin was born in the united states and grew up on a healthy diet of sports, films, and books. A rather shy lad who kept to himself, Bradly soon discovered the best way to know a person was to know what people liked. Throughout the years Bradly became a fan of many things and a fanatic of none. From Doctor Dre, to Doctor Strange and the who’s who of Whos. From Playstation to the Dreamcast and Marvel to DC. From LeBron James to James Bond and Lord of the Rings to Lord Palmerston (or Pitt the Elder if you agree with Wade Boggs) and is a huge fan of dad jokes and randomly obscure Simpsons references. Armed with a vast knowledge of comics, films, and pop culture. Bradly traveled the world making friends and sharing takes. As a young man Bradly married the love of his life young and grew older every year with each new child brought into the brood. If trends continue, Scientists predict that .2% of Canada (where Bradly and family reside) will be populated by Bradly’s children by the year 2029. You can hear him leading and listening to his favorite critics on the Screener Squad and Eye on the prize and maybe even provide some comments of his own.
 
 
Harmoni Anderson (Screener Squad, Highly Suspect Reviews, Unstabletop Gaming)
Harmoni is a mermaid-haired, millennial, rum drinking, Section 31, Slytherin (who’s divorced J.K. Rowling) preschool/nursery teacher and multi genre geek who also loves all things film, tv, fashion, makeup, and an embarrassingly huge BTS stan. Like really embarrassing. As in, mention them and then sit back and watch the insanity. Harmoni likes being able to game and talk movies/TV with people that aren’t 3 feet tall or all t...
