Cleopatra in Space

This series, based on a 2014 comic series by Mike Maihack of the same name, has a simple premise: then-Princess (and future Queen) Cleopatra is transported tens of thousands of years (30,000 to be exact) in the future to attend an elite school on an Egyptian-themed planet and fight a space tyrant with her friends. Cleopatra, known as Cleo for short, is super sassy, reckless, careless, and cocky, as she adjusts to the future...and is the only prophesied hope for the universe. As one reviewer put it, this adventure focuses on the untold story of Cleo's teen years, figure out how she will get home, fit in, find out the identity of a spy sent to the school, and her mysterious powers. The music of this series is also really awesome. This justifies its current rating.

When we think of things like Egypt we all know the parts like Pyramids, Camels, Mummies, Cats, Pharoahs but most importantly Cleopatra.

However unlike the Cleopatra that we know in real life and other entertainment media. Cleopatra in Space focuses on the younger version of Cleopatra before she became a queen but then all of a sudden she got sucked into the portal after finding a tomb which she traveled in time and was stuck in the future where she is the chosen one and the only person to save the day.

To be honest I don't even know anything much about Egyptian culture For example scene that was served in the cantina scene didn't show actual Egyptian cuisine or is it just me? However, I love this Sci-Fi cartoon show.

The show is such absolutely underrated gem.

I love this show Cleopatra in Space in the season 3 finale Octavian has finally take control of the Nile Galaxy and Octavian is actually Cleo's old friend Gozi who got corrupted by the Sword of Kebechet.

In season 4 I have some ideas like about how Cleo and her friends will save the universe from Octavian's forces, will Levista appear to Khensu and be together again, will Cleo ever return to the past and be with her family and how is Cleo and a golden lion connects to saving the galaxy?

So, we ask a favor to renew the series to Netflix to conclude the adventures of Cleopatra if she restores balance of the galaxy of her friends and return her back to her timeline. Also add Egyptian gods to the series because that will give viewers a chance to appreciate Egypt culture.

There are a number of cartoons for kids that parents can sit and enjoy with their children together. This is not one of them. It's not bad really. The character designs are enjoyable, the acting is very good, and for what it is the music is perfect. The problem is the direction, pacing, and editing where this falls short. It's not just that parts feel rushed and others linger too much. It's that half the time it feels like something really important was skipped over or cut. I've re-watched the first 2 episodes twice and each time I'm left waiting for a "2 days ago" cut-away scene that will explain what's missing, but it never comes. My guess is that while boarding and table reading this, whenever someone might have said "wait, how did we get here?" someone else responded "who cares, it's just a stupid show for dumb kids, they won't even be paying attention." And maybe they're right, but if they're expecting a show about teenagers to be watched by actual teenagers, they're in for a rude saturday morning awakening.

It's a shame that this show lasted only 26 episodes. There's plenty to like. The humor is on point. The action is exciting. The characters are all fun to watch in their own ways. There's a nice mix between comedy, story, and sci fi action. If nothing else, at least give a movie to wrap up the series. It deserves more.
