After watching whole 2 seasons of this I'm still not sure if it's intentional parody or not, unlike excellent "Future Man" dark comedy series.

All main characters are egotistical infantile short-sighted stereotypes from the beginning to the end, who act purely on mood at the moment and can't comprehend the concept of "world-wide annihilation" expanding outside of a current room. They "just don't feel like" surviving a week.

But the funnies part is constant usage of "sad tiny violin" soundtrack at the silliest scenes, which is all "sad" scenes. In addition to all that there is no logic & consistency in magic & pseudo-science / rules of the world. Instead, things just happen as plot-devices convenient to writers.

And let's not forget mandatory tokenism of said stereotypes. Again, the funniest part of that is, probably, meme-worthy usage of "the first black US president", same oligarchical functionary of the same system since Truman, as inspiration for embarrassingly belated (for US) egalitarianism of all citizen.

So, it's kind of amusing... but maybe not the way it was intended... or is it ?
