Hot Streets Review

Hot Streets fans the show has aired the final episode of it's first season and since i've been talking about the show non-stop when it was airing here is my review of the series as a whole.

The plot of the show is Agents Mark Branski and Donald French team up with Branski's niece Jen and her cowardly dog Chubby Webbers to take on paranormal phenomena. I admit when I did my first impressions review a few weeks back I thought the show would be episodic but my god was I wrong because alot of what happens prior to the finale either gets a call back or characters reappear and I have to say I really enjoyed the plot of the show.

Starring in the show is J.D. Ryznar , Scott Chernoff , Baby Daddy's Chelsea Kane , Rick and Morty Co-creator Justin Roiland and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.star Ming-Na Wen. I have to admit I had no idea Agent May was in this show until someone pointed it out to me over Twitter and yeah she does a fairly good job in this show Scott tho could use a few more acting lessons just because his delivery is sometimes a bit off and Chelsea Kane is funny as hell.

There's no getting around it Chubby Webbers is Scooby-Doo if Scooby-Doo! was made by Adult Swim I mean lets look at the facts both are dogs , both are brown , both have something to do with the paranormal and both are cowardly there's literally nothing that separates the two characters plus both have a human best friend.

Now prior to watching the final two episodes of the show I watched the pilot episode and if you guys think the actual series is strange and weird you havn't seen nothing yet the pilot is way more bizarre then the series it self it is and to be frank i'm glad they toned it down for the series just because I could see that being of putting heck it was even a chore for me to watch and I wanted to wanted to watch it.

When I was getting ready for this review I found  a great way to describe this series and it comes from a website called Inverse.com they describe the show as "Rick Sanchez from Rick and Morty gave the gang from Scooby Doo space drugs" and that is the best way to describe Hot Streets in my opinion just due to how freaking true it is.

Now I kinda get why people in the cartoon community don't talk about this show it aired at midnight so alot of people won't be able to watch it and to some like I said before due to how strange the show is it would put them of watching but I urge you to watch the show it's basically a stranger version of Rick And Morty which is not a coincidence since alot of people who write for Rick And Morty wrote for Hot Streets.

I'm not gonna lie the animation in the show can be pretty bad at times but I think that it adds to the overall charm of the show but bad animation is bad animation and I have no idea what they used to animate this show in but I wish they had gone the CGI route since they are alot of CG scenes in the show anyways so it would have helped the animation a little bit I think.

I feel that the humor of the show can be pretty mixed for every joke that doesn't work they'll throw in a joke that semi works but for me the best character to get jokes from is Chubby Webbers because for me he's like Kenny from South Park where you don't understand a word he's saying but at the same time you can't help but laugh at the situations he's in.

I don't really think this needs to be said but this is an adult cartoon but that said when i was doing research for the review I found out that one of the distributors for the show is Cartoon Network now I don't know if they still own Adult Swim and that's why there distributing this show but it feels strange that a channel for kids is distributing this strange and very adult show.

Overall this was a decent first season and I hope this show gets a second season because in my eyes this is a show that's worth watching but with all of that said it gets a 6 out of 10 from me.

  

Some Cartoons I Like But Don't Get As Much Attention From Cartoon Fans

Cartoons fans alot of shows come and go some are good some are bad so it's no wonder that alot of shows don't get attention from the cartoon community which is why i'm here to let you know about some of the shows that I like but don't get much attention from fans.

Mr. Bean: The Animated Series

With this show I kinda get why it's not talked about as much since the live action show wasn't big America but the character and the live action show were huge in Britain so I have to ask why don't us Brits talk about the show as much?

Animaniacs

I've spoken before about my love for this show so I won't go on about why we should be talking about it still but with news of the reboot I honestly think that Cartoon fans should give this gem the attention it deserves now let us all hope that the reboot can do the original any sort of justice.

Batman: The Animated Series

People better then myself have said why this show is fantastic and in all honesty it deserves all of the praise that it gets from Batman fans but the fact remains that it's not talked about by cartoon fans and i'm not sure why that is this is a really great series for both fans old and new and it's the series that gave the world Harley Quinn and Mark Hamill as The Joker.

Spider-Man: The Animated Series

If Batman: The Animated Series was really good this show at times just wasn't good at all but that didn't stop it from being fun and for honestly being the best animated series to feature Spider-Man ever and I do wish Marvel would make a sequel comic just so we can visit that world again.

X-Men: The Animated Series

Yes there really was a 90's X-Men show and yeah it was pretty awesome now I admit that I don't remember much about the show inf act for a few years I forgot all about it but a few months ago I did watch the first two episodes and it still holds up the reason why I don't think this holds is just due to how nineties it is and by that I mean the show is full of jokes you'd only get if you were born in the nineties and is full of nineties technology.

Tiny Toon Adventures

Again the reason why I think people don't talk about this show is the fact it stopped airing in 1992 however it is still a good show and it's one that I frequently go and re-watch whenever I want to watch a cartoon that will make me laugh and it got two specials in 1994.

Ducktales (1987 Series)

I have to stress that this is all about the 1987 show not the awesome reboot but it seems to me that as i'm doing this list you have to be over a certain age to even know about these shows and this is especially true for Ducktales since it started in the late 80's and I want fans of the classic show to try and convince fans of the reboot to give this show a try.

Hot Streets

Right now it feels like i'm the only one who's talking about this show and for the life of me I don't see why that's the case it's a truly good show for me this show is the next Rick And Morty it's funny , it's clever and it has some freaking strange animation and you know what I freaking love it.

Some Thoughts About Hot Streets

Hey there animation fans i don't really talk about Adult Swim shows and there's a reason for that and that reason is i only watch two Adult Swim shows (Robot Chicken and Rick And Morty) but i thought i'd give you some brief thoughts on there new show Hot Streets.

I'm only two episodes in but i can tell that the series is episodic so it doesn't have an overall story but the basic set up is Mark Branski (J.D. Ryznar) is an FBI agent along with his partner Donald French (Scott Chernoff).The two collaborate with Branski's niece Jen (Chelsea Kane) and her cowardly talking dog Chubbie Webbers (Justin Roiland) to investigate paranormal phenomena. It doesn't sound like the kinda thing i'd usually watch but the premise is really interesting and it offers alot of room for creativity.

As you can see the cast includes J.D. Ryzner , Scott Chernoff , Baby Daddy's Chelsea Kane and Rick and Morty co-creator and star Justin Roiland and i do have to say that so far the acting is pretty good i'm only two episodes in so i can't really say if the acting is the best thing about the show or not but from what i've seen the acting is really solid.

I have to say that in the pilot episode there was a lot of gore and i truly do mean alot so if you don't like that kinda of thing then you might want to avoid this series since it looks like it might be taking the violence to Mr.Pickles levels of violence but it is balanced out with some funny comedy.

I don't know if you can tell by the above image or not but the art style i found to be really weird at the start but it was something that i did get used to by the end of the pilot from what i've seen so far the animation does look to be really good again i can't say if that's true or not for the rest of the show but just based of the first two episodes the animation is solid.

Overall i'd say if you like weird shows then check this one out and as you can tell by the above image it's produced by Stoopid Monkey which means it has alot of the same funny guys who work on Robot Chicken and that includes Seth Green and Matthew Senreich as producers there will not a rating for this show as i'm only two episodes i might do a full review later on down the line tho.
