From the character sheets:

Why haven't we seen any of her friends yet?

I wonder, do kids pick out their parents clothes before sending them to school? How many of these adults are being sent out in long sleeves, shorts, and rain boots on the average day?
 
Wait. If gross out humor is the equivalent to porn in this world, wouldn't that mean porn is gross out humor in their world?
Oh my god these implications of this world is fucked up.

Yup, a dinosaur robot named Fossil Freddy
What a creative name

I sorta think its kind of a cute name for a cartoon dinosaur (although I think there might've already been a fossil freddy in Robot Chicken). But it seems a little morbid too, like if you named a cartoon human "cadaver carl" or something.

Jesus
Now I'm imagining that at saturday morning, Linda and Robert would gather around in the Living Room to watch porn.
Which, again, as kids are the ones who have jobs, is child porn
 
There's a really dark part of me that wants to see the crew turn all these awful implications into an adult cartoon that goes beneath the surface of the world but we all know Enter will just keep backpedalling until he drives this into the grave.

It would take some elbow grease and a ton of hard work but it could be salvaged into something half way decent.

But that would result in Enter's third least favourite kind of humor, after mean-pirited and gross-out, the ones about sexual subjects, to quote him "I hate humor that goes "hurrhurr sex""

The second. Fucking. Line.
"Linda: I know, right? How are we supposed to remember all the ice cream flavors on the periodic table?"

Ice cream flavors...Of the periodic table

WHAT?!

Well, that proves there aren't even some genius kids/teens in charge of teaching science. Either there's some secret organization with adults in charge of making modern technology through slave labor or magic fairies in GA's world.

I think we have a winner here:

Also, this might be the most boring GA script Enter's done, just a few pages of kids playing with toys, and he doesn't even manage to squeeze a drop of imagination out of it:

This is absolutely the most excruciatingly boring Growing Around script I've seen so far, and that't really saying something. I think Enter's nearly pathological inability to produce anything imaginative is a direct result of his autism.

Toy Tactics: In which Enter rips off one of his favorite spongebob episodes. Not a surprise, with all the things he has stolen from SB
 
You know, if he did some worldbuilding and had a better backstory for the show and just had the bodies switched, I could understand this maybe a little better, but with a poorly construed world, no backstory, asshole characters, and the fact that everyone is literal minded, no wonder this thing is shit.
 
So has there been an update on a series bible? Especially since that might actually help the audience understand this world better.
