Oddballs

I want to say that I'm a 39-year-old man who enjoys watching cartoons. The last cartoon I watched on Netflix is Cuphead. I'm also subscribed to James' YouTube channel. When he announced that he got a show up on YouTube - after two years of working on it and shopping it around - of course, I'm going to watch the show.

So far I'm on episode 5 and I find it oddly wholesome. James wanted to go for the younger demographic, mainly kids. I have no issues with it either.

From what I've seen, it's a season of YouTube episodes for kids and YouTube subscribers alike. I got a few laughs out of this show and, if there's a second season, I'll watch it.

This show won't be for everyone and that's okay. Your mileage may vary from opinion to opinion.

Oddballs isn't a show that tries to be anything too enticing and epic. With a crazy and active storyline. It's just a show giving you a couple of funny adventures, and i'd say it works pretty well.

I'd first of like to say, that i am impressed that the rating is as low as it is.

Sure, youtuber shows or movies like: Game Therapy, with Favij, Smosh the movie, or even joke movies like Giuoco Terapia, by QDDS have always been rated quite poorly.

And i do understand the negatives about them. But if there are YouTuber movies or shows that don't deserve this much low rating. They would be: Game Therapy and this.

I feel like a lot of the low ratings come from the fans that always expect something to be on the same style as the channel for the sake of their characteristics.

And some would come from the ones that actually understand why it's bad.

In my opinion, i don't think it's that bad for a star as James. Sure, i also realized there could have been more, but i still feel like that how it's been released, doesn't feel like it's terrible nor mind blowing. It's just a fun and quirky show.

If you want a quick laugh, check this out. And hey, if there will be a season2, it could probably get better.

This show is both entertaining and fun. As an adult, I can turn on this show for both me and my kid can be entertained. I think James Rallison does a really good job as a voice actor and story board artist. The animation here is also really nice and smooth. I think the beginning of the first episode is a bit boring and the song is a bit annoying, but overall entertaining. I'm glad James Rallison (TheOdd1sOut) posted the first episode on his YouTube so I can share it with others and recommend the show. I do feel some episodes deal with the problem of having stories that definitely could be shorter, but overall, silly entertaining, and fun.

People saying this is bad are likely not the right age group for it. The show is well-animated and has a very fun creative concept. The voice acting of some characters is great, and it's passable on the main three characters. The humour is more casual, there's not many laugh-out-loud moments, but it's not awful, it's just not supposed to be a full-on comedy for older kids or young adults. This however also brings a problem as the episodes are quite slow and not really very interesting.

Some of the plot ideas for episodes are really good, the synopsis's got me excited to watch them. But the episodes themselves feel like a bit of a let down. James gets turned into a phone - hilarious. But the episode isn't very interesting or funny and it pretty predictable. (Mom tells him not to get damaged for 24 hours, anddd you've figured out the rest). There's not many twists or good jokes to make up for that.

If you're an adult who likes cartoons like Adventure Time, Owl House, or even Looney Tunes, you probably won't like this, it's clearly aimed at a younger audience. The crocodile is cute and kids will like his mascot-like personality and energy. James is kind of a rude brat but has some good animations, Echo is... well she's kinda dull but she's not really the focus.

Overall, it's not for us, it's for kids, and for kids it's.... Okay. And it looks nice.

There is really not much more to say here. I binged the whole show while playing videogames, and it was a goof background. I found it entertaining, but certantly not revolusonary, but its not trying to be. The demographic is obviously for a lot younger children, kind of like clarence, but it gives off that childhood energy. And while clarencr certanly gives up mpre childhood nostalga, this show is overall better. The characters, while interestibg is kind of lacking in a definate substance, escpesially James and Max. You can clearly tell they are kept a bit low on complex personallity so that they can be used in any setting. Compared to them, Echo is a lot more complex, and is by far the best written one.

So its a good show, and I hope we get a season 2.
