Os 7A

Coming off Tiny toons and Animaniacs, I had some decently high hopes for the 7D. While I know that the 7D isn't going to be as good (Mainly because it's aimed at a young audience on a Disney network) and that the writers probably don't have the freedom they did with Warner Bros, This is what comes of it. It's not laugh out loud hilarious, but it's still an entertaining half-hour, and there's still plenty of episodes for the writers to come up with.

The 7D is a modern twist on the classic tale of the 7 Dwarfs, but there's been no mention of Snow white so far in the series. Anyways, the 7D are a group of dwarfs who live in the land of Jollywood under the rule of queen delightful. However, every so often, 2 bumbling sorcerers (Grim and Hildy) try and ruin the day for whatever reason, and the 7D are usually there to stop them.

The best part of this show so far is it's voice acting crew. You have Maurice LaMarche as grumpy, Jess Harnell as Grim, and Kelly Osbourne as Hildy, who oddly enough, is very entertaining as a spoilt brat.

Unfortunately, The writers and producers have fallen short so far in my opinion. There's the odd laugh, but it's not the kind of humour that people have come to expect from Tom Ruegger and his crew. So obviously the censors have gotten tighter than a snare drum since the early 90's in terms of what gets by them (Finger Prints, anyone?)

Personally, I don't think we'll see anything that can raise the bar higher than what Animaniacs and Tiny toons did, But even if they came close and were even a little suggestive in their humor, i'd be happy.

I give it a 6/10, but it's still too early to really say whether this show is worth watching. Give it a few more seasons.

At least the animation is okay, but i think this a spin off to Snowhite And The Seven Dwarfs the first movie to be realized plus i love the intro because it says heigh ho.

The main gripe about The 7D that I keep seeing is that the dwarfs aren't the ones from the Walt Disney classic. Now, I have no idea how this show was advertised before it premiered and if it was touted as tying in to the movie, but I don't think it's supposed to. To me, it seems that the idea of the dwarfs was loosely inspired by the film and all other concepts are original.

The plots of the show are simple and rather predictable. I can see how some would have a problem with that, but even hit shows like My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic have stories you can see the ending to from a mile away. It personally doesn't bother me because I find character interaction to be more vital than plot, but I can understand that not everyone shares this priority with me.

What initially drew me in to the show was the cast and crew. Take a look at the credits and you'll see a lot of the folks behind Animaniacs and Tiny Toons are involved in The 7D. This show doesn't share the brand of humor the aforementioned ones do, but then again this show is supposedly intended for preschoolers. In that regard, it is very well written and doesn't treat its audience like idiots.

The voice cast is outstanding and includes Billy West, Maurice LaMarche, Scott Menville, Jess Harnell, and other fantastic talents. They bring a lot of energy and character into their roles. The voices all fit the characters well. They don't sound anything like they did in the movie, but as I've said I don't think they're intended to be the exact same characters.

One thing I haven't seen much mention of is the music in the show. In my opinion, it's one of the best parts. All the songs are catchy and can easily get stuck in your head. The background music is also very upbeat and fun to listen to.

I don't understand all the hate this show seems to be getting. I really don't. I've seen every episode so far and I think it's pretty good. It's not perfect, but it's still cute and entertaining. Despite the negative reviews, I urge you to at least give the show a try. Just please judge the show for what it is and not what others may think it should have been.

I wanted to like "The 7D." I really did. However, I couldn't make it through the first episode. And that's really a shame, given the concept wasn't bad.

Basically, "The 7D" is a modern take on the classic characters from "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs." The queen (voiced by Good Luck Charlie's Leigh-Allyn Baker) calls them whenever her kingdom is in trouble. The whole premise sounds really cute on paper. In addition, the rest of the cast reads like the 90s animation hall of fame: Maurice Lamarche (The Brain from Animaniacs), Bill Farmer (Goofy), Dee Bradley Baker (from various cartoons), Jess Harnell (Wakko Warner), and Billy West (Philip Fry, Futurama). The 7D was even written by Paul Ruegger, director and writer for Tiny Toons or Animaniacs.

Even though it didn't get rave reviews from the IMDb community, I thought with this much talent, "The 7D" couldn't be that bad. Sadly, I was mistaken. "The 7D" flops right from the start. The theme song is cheesy and annoying and the villains are bland. What's worse, the writing is incredibly flat. For example. a major plot point of the opening episode centers on the two villains taking over the queen's kingdom. They make "kissing noises" on her throne (no kissing, as this a G-rated show. You wonder why they even suggested it.). Anyway, later when the queen calls the dwarfs in, she tells them about the "kissing noises." The dwarfs repeatedly ask "kissing noises?" to which the queen replies "I know, right?". This happens literally ten times in the episode. That's simply lazy.

To make matters even worse, the characters are simply ugly to look at.

All in all, "The 7D" is a disappointing program. It's shocking something like this airs on the same channel as the brilliant "Gravity Falls." I would normally give a show of this quality a three, but with the talent involved, it has to be a one. Do yourself a favor and skip "The 7D." Its cast may get it compared to Animaniacs, but the two shows are nothing alike. Animaniacs is often quite funny, while The 7D never is.

For me, this show was very cool that it really enhanced my childhood. From this show I get to discover more about the dwarves' personalities from what the 1937 movie hasn't been on my impression yet, as well as fun characters you get to like on, like their main antagonists the Glooms. I also loved the references from storybooks, movies, series, and other media being present from this show, as well as teaching audiences especially kids morals and advices basically about life, personality, and dreams. Surrounded by the best voice talents to be heard of, they also made the show interesting and jolly. This series had a lot of potential and too good to be underrated. Another masterpiece that a spin-off does based from the very first Disney movie indeed.
