Skylanders Academy (2016–2018)
8/10
Neat Cartoon Adaptation
14 April 2019
I have played all but a few of the Skylanders games (the one I have not played being Superchargers and the mobile entries), but I was surprised when I heard Activision and Netflix were teaming up to do a Skylanders cartoon.

Like most cartoon adaptations of video games, this is a spin-off separate from the games, as it has Spyro, Stealth Elf, and Eruptor, who, under the watchful eye of Master Eon and Jet-Vac, go on various adventures to stop foes like Kaos and the Doom Raiders, while learning important lessons about what it's like to be a Skylander.

The series is a good combination of adventure and comedy. While most of the characters have been recast, they did manage to get some of the VAs from the games to reprise their roles (especially Richard Horvitz, who voices Kaos). And Crash even makes an appearance (although he actually speaks, which can be good or bad for some viewers). It is a Netflix exclusive worth checking out if you are a fan of Skylanders, Spyro, or just want something new to watch.
