Another impressive stop-animated action comedy from Adult Swim.
The premise: Harriet Tubman (Wanda Sykes) and sidekick Alabama Jackson (Donald Faison) use time travel to save black music and prevent the KKK from destroying Obama's political career.
The result: explosive, farcical action with a joke in everyt frame! The fast pace and comedy reminds me of Adam Reed's writing in Archer.
The story, driven by Harriet's sharp tongue and unrelenting focus, works beautifully with Alabama's scatterbrained (but well-intentioned) support. The stop-motion animation is gorgeous, funny, and clean. A really impressive little ditty. I hope they make more episodes in a longer format.
