My Neighbors The Yamadas

I can’t imagine anyone enjoying this very much. Think of a family-based comic strip… say, “Foxtrot”. It’s like reading a bunch of those. Just barely amusing enough to keep you going, but so empty and trite that you regret the time you spent on it. Noteworthy for its watercolor art (looks a bit like illustrations from a children’s book), occasional flights of fancy, and episodic structure. Too bad it’s wasted on such uninspired material.
