At this point in entertainment, overused 4th wall jokes/references, along with constant "wink, wink, nudge, nudge AREN'T WE SO CLEVER" jokes. Overly snarky main characters on that note.
Yeah, those can be annoying. I watched the Murder Drones pilot once, and if I’m honest, since this style of humor was prevalent throughout the 27-minute runtime, it just took me out of the story completely, as did the sluggish pacing.

FINALLY SOMEONE FUCKING SAYS IT!
God, I went into MD with the highest possible expectations, but jesus fuck the writing just completely clashes tonally with the setting and whatnot. It's trying too hard to be another edgy sci fi comedy like Rick and Morty and it pisses me the fuck of. All the character designs and voices are wasted on a script like that.
"oooh, you're a- a freaked out child in the woods..."

Still better than Helluva Boss Season 2.

And a slap in the face is better than a kick in the nuts.

Talented people (only reason I know about its existence is because I have a friend who likes it and also said I’m correct Kevin Temmer an animator who I’m subbed to on YT worked on it) worked on Murder Drones but I myself don’t really care much for it.

Oh, and allow me to add another trope: shock value deaths. You know the ones. The kind where a character is randomly killed off for no other reason than to be shocking, or edgy.
The character in my pfp (Chazwick Thurman, Helluva Boss S2 EP3; Exes and Oohs) is a prime example of this. They had the opportunity to develop him beyond just being a sleazy, sexual shark demon into something more.
And yet, be the end of his debut episode, his jaws are hung up on Crimson’s walls, and all the character potential he had was tossed out the window.
And that, is why I have a personal grudge against this episode. It’s just a mediocre episode with that dreadful ending tacked on. It’s worse since he was genuinely one of my favorite characters in the entire show, because I loved his voice, design, potential, and I just liked the innuendo’s he made (my sense of humor is very sexual in nature, so in a way, I also related to him a bit, which only worsened the blow.)
-69 out of 100, just 3 scenes and a piss-poor (and frankly, hypocritical) editorial decision was all enough to take the episode from decent or even good down to bad.

It’s Chaz Time.

I was just reading a book called Redshirts and it parody’s Star Trek fodder deaths and tropes in almost Sci-Fi shows,They actually do bring this up though in it,either way I do like it and would recommend.

I think Grimsburg is pulling it off pretty well so far.

Grimsburg wasn't pretending to be something it wasn't like MD was.
