10/10
It's just pure fun.

I really don't have anything negative to say about this show. It's incredibly fun and absolutely beautiful. What?! A show designed by the thundercats team is beautiful?!? YES. It looks so good. The world and environments are so well-designed and immersive. The colors are rich and juicy! I can't recall a single shot that I didn't find aesthetically appealing.

The character designs are silly and weird and yes, kinda ugly sometimes. But I think that's kinda the point? There is comedy in the absurdity of the contorted faces and ridiculous poses. And combine that with the clever and often subtle humor and you just might find yourself having a good chuckle throughout.

As many have said, this may not be your cup of tea. And that's perfectly fine. Maybe you wanted an anatomically correct, super serious, rippling pectoral, washboard abs, sweat glistening Aquaman (you'll actually still get that here...) and I get that. But I really believe that anyone willing to give this show a chance will find themselves having a good time. Despite the whimsical, careless style, this show has some really wonderful moments. The characters are lovable right from the start and despite the silliness you'll find that the show has a lot to say about self-doubt, feeling like an outsider, and rising to the occasion when given a difficult task. I don't know, it just has a lot of heart and I was glad I tuned in.

So, if you have it in you, please don't shoot this one down. It's great fun and I don't think anyone who watches with an open heart and mind will regret it.
