The Mighty Ones S3-S4

I am an adult who still enjoys cartoons, and I enjoy The Mighty Ones. It's a group of characters that are funny and complement each other well. I like the glimpses of the women who live in the house and their band, and the universe created out of a neglected backyard. The backgrounds are painterly and the characters are simple but well developed. Most importantly it's funny and kids and adults both will like it.

The Mighty Ones is a rare Dreamworks original series that isn't based on a pre-existing property. The show is very outdoorsy, punk, surreal etc and I really like that aesthetic. The show really does reminds me of a late 2000s/early-mid 2010s Nickelodeon cartoon, especially since the co-creator, Lynne Naylor, did in fact work on several Nicktoon shows. The art style sorta reminds me of Harvey Beaks (which was a Nicktoon) and Chowder (fun fact, Chowder and Harvey Beaks have the exact same creator, CH Greenblatt) The show is about the great outdoors and has some lovely looking backgrounds that look like an abstract art piece, in a good way. The characters are best buddies who just like to vibe together and go on wacky adventures, but my one complaint is that the voices can get grating at times. There are several instances in the show where the characters shout and yell. I have sensitive hearing because of my autism and it gave me a headache at times. Overall it's a pretty decent show. If you can handle a lot of noise and you like 2000s Nicktoons (including the early seasons of SpongeBob), I recommend this show.

The quality of this show depends of the episode, season 1 was ok, some bad episodes and others are fine, then in season 2 gets better, was more consistent and funnier, and then season 3 starts fine, but as the season progresses it gets worse, some episodes are really awful, like the talking coffee grain one (didn't make any sense) or the musical episode with the family of Berry, a song after a song without any funny moment (the last episode I "watched" because I couldn't finish it because how bad it was), the best episodes are actually funny but there are less frecuent. I hope season 4 is a improvment.

Our favorite mighty tiny creatures - Very Berry, Leaf, Twig and Rocksy - are back for a new round of adventures in The Mighty Ones Season 2. This animated series is fun and colorful, with a nice mix of hidden educational messages. Each episode presents an obstacle for the Mighty Ones crew, which they usually create themselves, but they always find a way to get out of it. This series is very bubbly and enjoyable! The Mighty Ones is about a group of four friends: Very Berry (Alex Cazares), Twig (Josh Brener), Leaf (Jimmy Tatro) and Rocksy (Jessica McKenna). They live in a messy backyard of humans that they call giants or gods. The messiness makes for great new adventures on every path. While they are the smallest things in the yard, there is no obstacle they can't overcome because they always work together and have each other's backs. The main characters are Very Berry, a fun and adventurous strawberry; Leaf, a laid-back and cool leaf; Twig, a smart and nervous stick; and Rocksy, a considerate pebble, who is also the group leader. I love how each character has huge goals and its own personality. My favorite scene is from the "Home Touchers" episode when Rocksy is trapped in the humans' house. Kensington (Janina Gavankar), one of the "giants," is listening to a podcast about murderous ghosts. The show describes the signs of a ghost being in the house and, each time Twig and Berry make that exact noise to capture Rocky's attention, it scares Kensington. The message of The Mighty Ones is to trust your friends because they have your best interest at heart and you can do more together than alone. There is also a hidden message throughout the series about how humans affect the lives of other living things. The "Mighty Ones" are affected by all the things the humans keep in their backyard, which correlates to how humans affect climate change and the lives of other species. I give The Mighty Ones 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it for kids ages 8 to 12. You can find Season 2 streaming on Peacock and Hulu beginning July 1, 2021. By Tiana S., KIDS FIRST!
