Because of its mature appeal, this offbeat series is a fun pick for parents and older tweens to watch together. Go to Full Review

caleb c @RT83783161 01/14/2025 Hideo Kojima Approved See more 04/08/2022 The greatest acting ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more 04/29/2018 I have a lot more success with Netflix offerings leaving my 10 year old with the remote control. This, yet again endorses both him, and the people who commission younger TV at Netflix, in their wise choices. This is just great. If you like Gumball or the Regular Show, and God knows why wouldn’t you, then you'll love this. Almost as good as Netflix's other offering, Fangbone. Praise indeed. See more 08/08/2017 I'm embarrassed to say that I definitely watch this despite not having children, but it's actually really funny! The humor ranges from silly to very clever, to even a bit dark at times (in the best ways.) It has a similar energy to 90s Nicktoons, but with less gross-out humor. I also love the stop motion, and the felted aesthetic of the show. This is a kid's show worth watching, even if you don't have a kid! See more 07/29/2017 Absolutely hilarious! I'd choose watching this with the kids over adult TV, such a change from having to endure brainless kids TV. See more 04/22/2017 Amazing show, if you ever do get the chance to watch it I'd say go for it. In the words of buddy himself "this is stupid awesome" there's no other way to discride it other then a good stupid time. The main character is a dog who is reckless, stupid, yet good hearted and very charismatic getting out of trouble mostly by being a all around good natured person and his sidekick and possible love interest darnell the ferret, I smart yet kinda dumb character who is a mechanic going on adventures and racing. The characters are relatable in the funniest ways imaginable so watch and have a good time with this masterpiece of children's comedy. See more Read all reviews
