Is the hit Adult Swim series Common Side Effects secretly the most addictive masterpiece currently taking over your television screen with its bizarre storytelling? I was initially skeptical of this new animated thriller from creators Joe Bennett and Steve Hely, but after watching the pilot episode, I finished the entire first season in one single sitting. The surreal journey of mycologist Marshall Cuso as he uncovers dark conspiracies involving big pharma is truly unlike anything else currently airing on cable. Watching Marshall use the mysterious Blue Angel fungus to revive a bird in a city park is just one example of how this show balances dark comedy with intense, high stakes drama.
