   Disenchantment May Not Enchant Hardcore Fantasy Fans:   
      
   "Science fiction author Robert Repino had high expectations for    
   isenchantment,    
   the new animated series from Matt Groening, creator of The Simpsons and    
   Futurama. Unfortunately, he was underwhelmed by the show’s early episodes.   
      
   “I counted four episodes that ended with a very slow-moving, sloppy,   
   contrived    
   action scene,” Repino says in Episode 324 of the Geek’s Guide to the   
   Galaxy    
   podcast.   
      
   And while Futurama episodes like “The Prisoner of Benda” and   
   “Meanwhile”    
   demonstrate a sophisticated understanding of science fiction tropes,    
   Disenchantment never shows much familiarity with the fantasy genre."
