![]() ![]() Okay, as a fan of the Kung Fu Panda movies, even I have to ask what the purpose of this series is other than to milk money off a classic franchise whose third movie gave Po's story a great ending? Here, the first episode basically puts Po's character through character assassination, as he is devoid of the power and character development he got throughout the movies and nerfed to the point where he cannot defeat Landreth. Landreth who is also after the weasels, Klaus and Veruca, coming all the way from England by order of the Queen. Now he must go on a quest to recover the gauntlet and restore his reputation, gaining help from a new character named Luthera, a female bear who is a knight from the land of. They could've executed this better.Īfter a failed attempt to stop a gang of weasels from stealing the WuGao Gauntlet goes bad, Po's reputation is destroyed and he is stripped of his status as Dragon Master. Overall, a pretty average show that a 7 year old might like, but nothing beyond that. IDK if it's because it's animated on twos or somsthing, but it felt less impactful. The new character designs suck and the villains especially look dog****. The lighting and set design look really good and are the highlight visually. If the show aired 5-10 years earlier, it would be alright, but it didn't. ![]() Po is a lot less endearing and more annoying, but this isn't a complete character assassination (although the way he handles his status really irks me). ![]() Blade, for example, has a neat backstory regarding her brother, but her personality is the by-the books hardened and stoic type. The characters aren't doing anything for me despite having good backstories. Are all Netflix Dreamworks shows bad? No, their other action shows like Kipo are one of my favorites as a matter of fact, but this show does little to stand out from others in its genre. Dreamworks had hyped up Jack Black being on the project a lot, portraying this show as an unofficial Kung Fu Panda 4, when in reality this was just another generic kids show based on a Dreamworks property. I read other reviews, and while I do think some points are exaggerated in their quality, I understand where people are coming from. ![]()
