Story Pile: The Amazing Digital Circus

There are times the internet falls in love with something and I am blessed to find that I am one of the people able to just watch and enjoy it. Rather than get involved in lengthy bickerfests on one of the many worst places on the internet (Twitter, Reddit, to an extent Tumblr), I am somehow capable of merely enjoying myself and the work.

Built different I guess.

This is about The Amazing Digital Circus.

Due to the fact that The Amazing Digital Circus has a highly-engaged fandom, and is itself a type of media that I think benefits from being given a lot of close attention, I want to provide an opportunity for anyone who isn’t interested, or who wants to avoid anyone else’s analysis, to get the hell out before I start talking it.

Consider this a full spoiler warning lockdown. After this point I’m going to start talking about everything in the series with gleeful abandon, without concern if I’m giving up information or not. This is an analysis of my experience of watching The Amazing Digital Circus, and absolutely not a first-impressions advertisement or review that’s meant to encourage you to check it out.

If you do want one of those: I think you should check it out! It’s quite good, and it’s thoughtful and clever and interesting in ways that a lot of other shows with this kind of offputting online presence can wind up overstated. Due disclosure, I am biased here because Glitch is an Australian company and I would like it if more Australian media production was respected and recognised for its qualities.
