This animated series based on the blockbuster film of the same name follows the newly formed team that has found a strange artifact linked to the DNA of Peter Quill. When he opens it, Quill unleashes a map that leads to the location of the Cosmic Seed, a powerful weapon that has the ability to give birth to the next universe. The Guardians must locate and protect the Cosmic Seed and keep it out of the hands of evildoers who would abuse its powers, including trickster Loki, the conniving brothers the Collector and the Grandmaster, and galactic big boss Thanos.

It's been a while since we've gotten a show with a cast of characters that so fundamentally function on different wavelengths that half the fun is watching them bicker their way into actual action. Go to Full Review
Mason Segall CBR 07/09/2018
It's safe to say that the Guardians of the Galaxy cartoon only exists because of the popularity of the movies. So it would be easy for the show to be a bland cross-promotion, and for most episodes it is. Go to Full Review
James Whitbrook io9.com 07/09/2018
The Guardians are best as characters when they're basically just sort of winging it-not quite heroes, not quite scoundrels, waltzing around with just enough planning to make themselves dangerous. Go to Full Review
Blair Marnell Nerdist 06/29/2018
Overall, this was a pretty solid introduction to the Guardians of the Galaxy animated series. Of course, there's always room for improvement. Go to Full Review
David Griffin Screen Rant 09/28/2015
Disney XD's Guardians of the Galaxy delivers an exhilarating action-packed adventure into an already expansive Marvel universe that shows no signs of slowing down. Go to Full Review

7/10
I'm really eager to see how future episodes handle the Spartax revelation, as it really seems like this will be the area where the show finds its own tone, voice and direction. Go to Full Review

Kuba K @RT66581974 03/21/2024 Fun and recent animation See more Andrius y @cineastayps1661828 03/29/2023 capítulos algo simples para mi gusto, aun así es una serie animada entretenida y disfrutable para simplemente pasar el tiempo. See more Chris M @RT21954632 09/16/2022 I really like this show. It has the humor of the movies but follows the comic books closer than the MCU movies did. But Rocket and other characters can be REALLY annoying. Not enough to ruin it. Because, like I said I do really like it. See more 12/19/2020 That was great news yes See more 06/30/2018 Wow! This TV series is so much fun. The originality of the characters has been retained and the plot keeps one highly engrossed. See more 02/09/2016 Lots of fun, true to the movie characters and universe, but schedule is erratic. See more Read all reviews
