Look, it's not an awful show, but it's just as far from being a great one (watch a few episodes of Bluey, for instance, and the difference in quality feels like an abyss).
If it managed to do just one thing very well - animation, art direction, characters, writing, voice acting - but nothing rises above mere adequacy.
I was about to say that all the same I didn't have a particular problem with the show either, but actually I guess I do: the voice cast are all adults with annoyingly pitched up voices. The female characters all sound like valley girls on helium.
Still, there are glimmers of promise. Trinket had the potential of being an interesting character, but instead she comes across as a superficial ditz - unless that's supposed to be funny.
At the end of the day though, there's no accounting for kid's taste. I know from experience. This is just going to click with some kids, and fair enough. There are worse things out there, I guess.
