Trolls fans it's time for something new from the Trolls franchise as season 2 of The Beat Goes On! has just dropped on Netflix and since I liked the the first season I thought why not review the second so here we go.
As with the first season the show is episodic and I think it works for this series and some of the shows stories are really fun to see play out even if you know how the story is going to end before it happens I won't lie I saw the ending for Big Poppy coming a mile away but that doesn't mean it wasn't fun to see play out.
Returning for the second season we have Skylar Astin , Amanda Leighton , Kari Wahlgren , Sam Lerner , Ron Funches , Kevin Michael Richardson and Fryda Wolff. Unlike the last season where I couldn't get the original voices out of my head now I think Skylar and Amanda are great replacements for the film actors but with that said I still would have preferred it if they got all of the films main cast back for the series.
The animation was once again done by Dreamworks Animation and I think that the animation in this season is better then what they had in the last season if that even makes sense and it has a certain charm to it it's not the best animation like in Avatar but at the same time it's not as bad as Teen Titans Go! or any Sony Pictures Animation movie.
Alot of people might be wondering why I like this show well that's because while it is a bad show it's like the Fast & Furious movies in that it's pure junk food for the brain you know it's not going to be any good but at the same time you go and enjoy them anyway and to me that's what describes this show yes it's bad but at the same time you want to go and see it and have fun with it.
I have to ask this but do we really need Cooper in this show he's so freaking annoying he's fine in the movie because he's not in it that much but when the show focuses on him you would have thought that the makers of the show would have tried to make him less annoying but nope they didn't and it really does hurt the show as a whole.
Even tho I didn't notice it last season but DJ Suki is adorable as hell and in my opinion she's one of the best characters on the show (apart from Poppy that is) and it's a shame that she doesn't get that much screen time in the series which is a shame because every time she's on screen I end up laughing at least once.
For some reason people don't really talk much about this show and I think that's partly due to the fact it's on Netflix but also due to the fact that this for sure a kids show but either way I do think people should be talking about this show more even if it's in a negative light it's still better then nothing but if your not talking about it because you havn't got Netflix then fair enough.
This show does something awesome it makes a Back To The Future reference and it's really freaking funny but tho sadly not all of the jokes this season are funny in fact quite a few aren't and for some reason they reference The Shining as if the target audience have seen that movie but for every bad joke there's one or two that will at least make you smile and that's the best thing I can say about them they will make you smile.
Like the last season there's alot of songs in this season so many in fact that I actually cannot remember any of them I know Poppy has a solo song I think in episode one but that's really it and they have a song at least once per-episode it's like they made the soundtrack first and then released they had to come up with a way or marketing it so they made a Netflix series to sell the soundtrack.
Overall this season was pretty good but it's not as good as the first but then again the first season was so fresh to me that no matter how good this season was it wasn't going to top the first for me this series gets a perfect 5 out of 10.
