Yet, despite all odds, the Among Us show doesn’t just work. Based on the five 13-minute episodes I previewed, Among Us is a contender for one of the best animated shows of the year. Even more surprising: It’s a sharply written show that can appeal to everyone, whether they’ve played the game or not. It’s faithful to the games and constantly hilarious. But what caught me most by surprise is just how political it is. The social commentary is constant, but without feeling too on the nose or overshadowing the show as a whole.
Paramount’s Among Us show isn’t what you think: ‘They just let us go nuts with it’

This sounds like an interesting take on the Among Us show! It’s great to hear that the creators had the freedom to explore their creativity. Looking forward to seeing how it all comes together in those short episodes!
