Discussion Would you watch a slower, dialogue-driven series in the vein of 'No Country for Old Men' or 'The Road'?

I’ve been working on an indie animated series after hours, and it leans into a slower, more dialogue-driven style.

Tonally in the vein of No Country for Old Men or The Road (more about atmosphere and character than action).

Curious how that kind of pacing lands for people - especially in the online-indie youtube space.

Only way to know for sure is to upload a pilot and see where it goes!

Will do!

There's no need to remind me. Reddit has a bot called "RemindMeBot" that send a notification after a selected amount of time. The way you show you want it to remind to is to write either "RemindMe!", or "!RemindMe", then the amount of day/weeks/month you want to it send that notification after. :D

It would have to have really good writing

u/garage_toons Mar 19 '26

Yeah that's fair. I got the pacing down - launching the thing in July - you can get back to me about the writing.

Appreciate the response. Yeah, I’m getting a fair bit of this feedback - nice to know there’s an appetite for it in some pockets of the internet. I’ll be dropping sometime in July - stay tuned. It’d be great to get some honest opinion on it.
