If they hadn’t slapped HALO on the show and made it its own IP, it would have worked better, but no, let’s continue the habit of having people that don’t know / despise a particular IP make a show about said IP.

Shocking…

Few people in my circle even knew it was a show, those that did just called the main character John Halo, the master cheeks (because they thought it was a good idea to have him take off his “helmet” when trying to portray an almost silent protagonist).
