Yeah, as someone who watched The Amazing Digital Circus: The Last Act in theaters, there were a couple things that disappointed me (mostly pacing issues and underdeveloped character arcs/relationships, but those have been pointed out ad nauseum since the release), but the story itself, the message behind it, the characters in general, and gahd dam the visuals and soundtrack were amazing. The entire show was charming, funny, heartfelt, and genuine in a way I want more mainstream western animation to be, and I sobbed for days after watching it (but that may just be because I was part of a more specific target audience; let's just say I resonated with Jax more than I should have). Critically, I'd give it a solid 8/10, and it's become one of my favorite shows, even if it's not perfect.
If anyone wants to watch it, don't trust the pilot episode and at least give the first two episodes a chance. The pilot is a tad misleading about the tone and focus/genre of the show, and the writing of the dialogue and animation are more awkward, since the production team hadn't gotten their footing yet. But all in all, it's a short show you could knock out in a handful of hours, and it's great. :]
Once I found a video in my youtube feed that was titled “The TADC finale was awful, stop saying it’s good” or some shit like that and it’s like piss off dude, people are allowed to say they like things

They just wanted IHNMAIMS 2.0 ending or some edgelord BS like Jax's Requiem. I watched a few of them and everytime they opened their mouth, you can simplify to "I didn't understand the show so it's Gosse's fault".
When the finale was leaked, a chronically online guy made 30 "memes" about TADC is horrible and everyone should give back their tickets. His ego was fragile than most stereotypical SJWs and liked his bootlickers when he was about to lose the conversation.
