Billy Dilley's Super-Duper Subterranean Summer (2017)

Just kind of bland and boring

[5/10 · 25 July 2020]

I watched every last episode of this show back in late april of 2018. and i wasn't happy with it, nor was i enraged with it

i was just bored with it, to a point where i dozed off. not interested in what was going on

The show definitely has problems that i did notice: billey's voice is very grading, and you could easily confuse the character designs of this show with character designs from another show. Zeke for example looks so similar to Robbie from Gravity Falls, that i ended up thinking of robbie instead of Zeke

However, there are positives that i can give this show: Billey's rat looks so uninterested in what's going on that i just love the character. and his running gag of sipping the coffee made me chuckle in my watchthrough of the episodes, the villain character and his mother have some of the funniest moments in the entire series, and the animation is very reminiscent of school house rock and at times. The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy

Other than that. i don't have very much to say

Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland (1989)

Great Animation. But Dull Execution on Everything Else

[5/10 · 11 July 2019]

Yes. The Animation in this film is absolutely beautiful and the idea of the Slumberland characters being the people from the circus to give an example on how Nemo doesn't keep his promises is creative

But, The Story is a mess leading to extremely slow pacing and a structure that feels like the writers were struggling to get this plot to the 90 minute mark

and none of the characters have any development, some of them are pointless, or are just bland

If you do want better products that were made by TMS or the word Nemo. i would recommend Tiny Toon Adventures, Animaniacs, and Animaniacs

and i would recommend Finding Nemo and its sequel aswell

Not that Little Nemo is a terrible choice, i just think that there are better choices out there (those other products being an example) with more intriguing content, better pacing, and more interesting characters too

Unikitty! (2017–2020)

Started off Ok. But it gets better from there

[7/10 · 26 December 2018]

Before the Series came out. People were predicting that this was going to be another Teen Titans Go!, because of how the art style looks and because they didn't represent cloud coo coo land in the show (even though they have very little material to work with. and i don't know if the creators even knew what the entirety of cloud coo coo land looks like, so they decided to create this World. So I'm just going to say that this is supposed to take place before the movie). So I'll give them a pass for that, considering the fact that they had very little material to work with

But I'll say that besides the ideas that were brought up on paper. i had to say that i really like this Series (granted i don't find it O.K K.O.! Let's be Heroes level of Good). But they represented unikitty better than Teen Titans Go! and Ben 10 (2016) represented their original source material, since this was worked from the ground up from where unikitty lives before The Lego Movie, and was thought up without the past source material to make each episode

The Animation is like the animation in Teen Titans Go. But more interesting to look at, and I'm pretty sure that there's more work put into each Episode

To be honest, the show started off as meh in my opinion. Just a show that i could watch and get through without feeling bored, frustrated, Happy or excited. But then the later episodes came and the show's episodes started to get more interesting. To the point where i would find each Episode in the level of enjoyable, hilarious or even relatable and sad

Like for example: The Zone, Too Many Unikitties, Kickflip Puppycorn, Tasty Geist, Tragic Magic, Dancer Danger, Float On, Space Mission: Danger and Top of the Naughty List

Wacky Races (2017–2019)

i surprisingly. Kind of liked this

[7/10 · 22 December 2018]

I didn't grow up with the original Wacky Races. But i did see some episodes of the original, and while i will say that the races are kind of fun. Every Episode from what I've seen felt kind of the same

But this show felt fresh, it felt like every Episode was different from one another and the characters have more fleshed out personalities than in the original

The Animation is expressive and cartoony. But unlike Teen Titans Go and Ben 10 2016, it actually works well with the kind Series its rebooting. Which the original Wacky Races (since it was Hanna Barbara) had cartoony designs

The Stories had variety in them. Instead of the one scheme where Dick Dastardly and Muttley try to win each race, theres one Episode where an executive tries to tone down the violence for the show (which is clever) while doing the racing part of the show, theres an Episode where the characters are in the stone age and are trying to survive while doing the race, Ect. Ect. Ect.

My only issue with the show is that there are a few episodes that aren't about the racing at all. Which contradicts the title 'Wacky Races' like that one Episode where they're in the future and Dick Dastardly turns out to be the villain. and the episodes are void of humor that i remember (and what i mean is that i don't remember the jokes if there are any)

But those two issues is so small that i ignored them. i was still intrigued with the Episodes and liked the change of pace. To the point where i can say that i thing this is a Solid Series
