Human Resources

Human Resources, the brand-new animated comedy from the brilliant minds behind the hugely popular Netflix series, "Big Mouth", serves as a workplace comedy spin-off that takes a deep dive into the complex world of human emotions. Launched in 2022, the zany, adult-oriented series is a continuation of Big Mouth universe, replete with its signature humor, bold dialogue, and strikingly animated designs. It strives to keep viewers laughing out loud at the chaotic comedy and the explicit ways it explores adult themes and the emotional cosmos. At the heart of Human Resources is an unconventional yet expressive representation of what makes humans... well, human. Every emotion, every idea, every pulsing, unchecked urge that cascades through a person's mind is not just an abstract concept here. Each of these emotions is personified as humanoid creatures working in a pseudo-corporate structure known as the 'Department of Human Resources'. This is where all the emotional complexities are stored, nurtured, and dispatched to the human world. The show takes viewers on a peculiar journey exploring the untamed world in our own minds. Much like its predecessor, Big Mouth, Human Resources tackles hard and often taboo topics with a mix of irreverent humor, smart sociocultural references, and surprising emotional depth. Its all-star voice cast brings familiar life, energy, and personality into each emotion and idea, remarkably communicating the existential perplexities of our human feelings and experiences. That said, this isn't your typical office—with departments such as Anxiety, Love, Shame, Logic, Pride, and Depression, Human Resources depicts daily life experiences, from the incomparable elation of falling in love to the soul-crushing despair of depression through an entirely new perspective. Each department is fully staffed with unique and colorful characters that are doing their best (and sometimes worst) to keep the chaotic world of emotions running smoothly, thereby painting the hot mess that is human nature in a farcical light. But the show isn't only hilarious—it's also an irresistibly inventive way to examine and understand our emotions and urges. Without eschewing Big Mouth's explicit and risque humor, it delves deeper into raw, real, and often messy aspects of psychological, social, and emotional health. Human Resources offers insightful and considerate portrayals of how these unique, complicated systems shape our behaviors, perceptions, and relationships. Sure, its audacious jokes and visuals play a big part in the series’ appeal, but it's the show's sincere investment in breaking down the complexities of human nature that makes it shine. It does an exquisite job of balancing outrageous comedy with surprisingly tender moments, making it a refreshing, raunchy, and ultimately, rewarding viewing experience. With an unpredictable storyline and a vibrant palette of characters, including anxiety-riddled butterflies, unflattering, sloppy sleep beasts, and gold-hearted hormone monsters among others, Human Resources presents viewers with a truly imaginative spectacle. It pushes the limit with its peculiar representation of the human emotional landscape by creating a whole new world that's at once wacky, endearing, and insightful. The animation style of Human Resources is bold and elastic, playing with form and design to represent the wide range of human identities, desires, and experiences. The rich detail and colors infused into the visuals perfectly highlight the theme of the show, making every frame a delight to the eyes. Doubling down on creative leeway, Human Resources is unapologetically explicit, delightfully irreverent, and beautifully blurred between the lines of reality and fantasy. With a successful blend of offbeat humor and poignant narratives, Human Resources is a daring exploration of the human emotional landscape. It's a show that is not afraid to tackle the full spectrum of human experiences and emotions, bringing them to life in unexpected, empathetic, and wildly fun ways. Striking a balance between the chaotic and the introspective, Human Resources is also a whimsical yet distinctly insightful look at what it means to be human - one quirk at a time.
