The Midnight Gospel (2020)

The Midnight Gospel is a hallucinatory animated series that follows Clancy, a spacecaster whose malfunctioning multiverse simulator sends him to interview strange, dying worlds. On the surface it’s an adventure-comedy full of wild, constantly shifting visuals and absurd set pieces; beneath that it’s a series of intimate, freewheeling conversations about life, death, addiction, spirituality, and meaning. Each episode pairs candid, often philosophical dialogue with surreal, improvisational animation, so viewers experience both the intellectual depth of long-form interviews and the sensory thrill of unpredictable, kaleidoscopic imagery. Expect moments of laugh-out-loud dark humor alongside unexpectedly moving, existential beats—the show can be disorienting and emotionally powerful in equal measure. It’s best for adults who enjoy experimental storytelling: a visually dazzling, thought-provoking ride that blends comedy and contemplation into an unconventional animated odyssey.
