Amphibia (2019–2022)
7/10
It had a good start.
19 June 2019
Warning: Spoilers
I saw the first 2 episodes and thought wow this is great. I love the characters, I live the giant bug critters, the jokes are funny, the premise is good. But now I'm not so sure. The first episodes The origin and the pool episode are great. The Staff episode was absolutely horrible. 1) The jokes weren't funny 2) Bribing Polly with candy really you already did that joke, 3) The plot was way too basic oh no we broke the thing better go fix it 🙄 LAAAAAAAAAME, 4) Then there is bad attempts at black comedy. Instead of trying to do the darkest jokes you can get away with on a Disney show why don't you just be more clever with the gags as Dan Povimire once said *Working on Family Guy we learned that the easiest way to get a laugh is something really mean, really offensive, or really crass On a children's show you can't really do that and we want to entertain kids and adults so we have to work really hard to make the jokes smarter* 5) The show just started and I am already seeing a formula. Anne wants to do a thing she isn't supposed to she does it anyway and there is a third act monster like Regular Show. 6) I really hope it's not like Steven Universe where it is mostly mudane and cool stuff is rare. 7) The show seems like it is mostly going to focus on Anne and Sprig. Why is the baby just a comic relief she is the best charcater use her.
