The Chosen Adventures has some generally fun, informative, and thought-provoking moments, but it was ultimately created with a particular target audience in mind. Go to Full Review

The animation style is round and colorful, nothing particularly sophisticated, but sufficient. The show is pretty funny. Go to Full Review

Evan H. @lvevan Nov 4 Love the animation style with the large heads and expressive faces. The little sidekicks are hilarious and my kids are learning really valuable lessons. Highly recommended for all ages. See more Ranny L @RT68152916 Oct 28 The Chosen Adventures is One Of The Most Adorable Series I Have Ever Watched With A Charming And Unique Animation Style, characters that are full of humor, and lessons that even adults can learn from. They all add up to make an absolutely wonderful show. Abby (Romy Fay) is a big-hearted nine-year-old girl, and a very curious one at that. Everywhere she goes in the town of Capernaum, she asks questions, lots of questions, sometimes more than her Abba, Eli (Danny Nucci), and her Eema, Hannah (Zehra Fazal) can answer. This is when she and her best friend, Joshua (Jude Zarzuar) meet Jesus of Nazareth (Jonathan Roumie) who helps them with all of their questions, and gives them answers that help them understand the true meaning of life. I really enjoyed the style of animation in this series. It has sort of a clay-like look to it, with the scenery and characters faithfully crafted to match the setting of an ancient middle eastern fishing village. Important individuals like Abby and Joshua are easy to spot in a crowd, thanks to unique outfits and traits, and this helps make the story easy to follow. However, sometimes the characters are a bit difficult to understand when they are speaking. My favorite scene is when Abby returns home from the most terrible day, and is wondering why God would give her a day in which nearly everything has gone wrong. While her Eema teaches her that, even though we might not understand all things, we should still trust God because He does know, a bird named Pigeon (Yvonne Orji) shares the good things that came from Abby’s misfortunes, even though Abby didn’t see them at the time. Speaking of Pigeon, my favorite character is her best friend, Sheep (Paul Walter Hauser). Honestly, the best word to describe Sheep is… satirical. Despite his big, soft, and fluffy physical appearance, his words are often razor sharp. Yes, he does love Abby and her family very much, but he is never without a comment, remark, or some other form of general sarcasm that keeps everyone laughing, and reminds them to not take life too seriously. The series’ message is that, in every situation, there is something you can learn. Abby and Joshua go on many adventures and often end up in very surprising situations. But in all they do, Jesus teaches them some valuable life lessons, ones that will be cherished and remembered for years to come. I give The Chosen Adventures 4.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 12. It releases on Prime Video on October 20, 2025. By Braedyn M., KIDS FIRST! See more Liz D @RT77080557 Oct 20 We are trying to help our kids focus more on God, so this series is a godsend! It's funny and interesting for adults as well. I'm thankful to have a show that isn't advertising and pushing worldly things. If you haven't watched The Chosen series you should definitely watch it as well!
