So then there's a new show on Cartoon Network out and when I say out I mean you can watch the first two episodes on demand the official premier isn't for a few more days but still here our some thoughts I have about Apple & Onion.
Just based of these first two episodes this looks to be an episodic show which I guess does make sense since this is a slice of life show but at the same time I do wish there was a slight narrative in the show but i'm only judging it of the first two episodes so who knows there could be a story developing in the future.
I had no idea this had a British cast as Apple we have the shows creator George Gendi but it's the voice of onion that truly shocked me as we have Richard Ayoade from The IT Crowd doing his voice and I have to say both actors are pretty funny in the first two episodes but the casting gets even more awesome as Onions dad is played by Stephen Fry that is just pure great casting right there and yes I know there's more actors in this but since this isn't a full review i'm not going to name every actor.
I'm going to come right out and say it the character look freaking weird to me and that's not just the side characters it's every character I get what they are going for making every piece of food into a person but that doesn't stop them from looking like they just escaped from a mental hospital and I can see the designs putting some people of watching the show.
I will say this about the show it's humor at least for these two episodes was pretty spot on I honestly cannot count the amount of times I laughed out loud and I think that's helped by the fact that Richard is a generally funny person and the kind of humor that this show has seems to be right up his alley.
Since i've only seen the first two episodes I cannot make a full comment on the animation but based on what i've seen the animation in the show is far better then most Cartoon Network shows these days I won't name any shows just because at some point it just becomes dull to bash on the same show time after time but lets just say it has a movie out this year with the name Goes To the Movies.
So far this does seem like it could be a great show for the network and if i'm still watching by the time episode twenty roles out then yes there will be a review but if i'm not watching it by that time then there's no review.
