My Dad the Bounty Hunter

My wife found this show and we decided to watch it with our daughter. With so many shows that have gore and adult themes aimed at kids this was a welcome change.

The voice acting is superb and it took me awhile to recognize some of the voice actors even though I follow them in other shows.

The music is amazing with some throwbacks to late 80s and 90s hip-hop.

The plot us solid too with sci-fi themes great for introducing kids to similar shows. If you're looking for a way to introduce your kids to science fiction without all the extra fluff, this is it! A great watch for adults and kids.

Will definitely watch again.

This review is from an adult point of view.

The series looks promising. It has an interesting storyline which happens to include outer space. It's filed with spacecrafts, an AI sidekick, new technology, gadgets, aliens and robots. What's not to like?

Plus it's endowed with fantastic CGI, I was expecting this to be entertaining. But after the 3rd episode, I found the two kids incredibly Annoying, with a capital "A".

Putting aside the kids for the moment, this could be a great series. The CGI is first rate. The look & feel gives me the same vibe as "Lightyear". The quality of the CGI of this series will give Pixar a run for their money

The storyline is also interesting, and due to its setting, they (writers) can go nuts with the storyline. Exposing us to as far as the creators' imagination can go. Filling us with new worlds and characters to their hearts' content.

But those kids, were not likeable at all. They came across as stubborn, undisciplined, and lacking total respect for the father (i.e. They don't listen). And considering the daughter is supposed to be somewhat of a genius with street smarts, ends up acting extremely dumb in many ways. My only hope is, as the series progresses, they (kids) will become more likeable. But after 3 episodes, not looking good so far.

VERDICT: It's a good watch, just ignore the two brats..., err, I meant, kids. Younger audiences will love it.

The art design here is amazing. The texture of the hair? Masterpiece. The story as is could've been a movie honestly as most of the 10 episode 80% of them the kids are just being brats while the dad gets exasperated and yet the feeling of consequence doesn't show itself until the later episodes. Pretty standard tbh.

It's an overall good family friendly drama that focuses on the dad and kids. The dad loves his kids. The kids lover their father. They just have a lack of communication due to the nature of the dad being a bounty hunter as per title. Happy ending with a hook for possible 2nd season.

IF you hate watching kids do their own thing without regard for consequence and act like they know what they're doing because nothing "bad" truly happens then this show isn't for you.

I watched this with the family and thoroughly enjoyed it. My Dad the Bounty Hunter is quick witted and quite humorous. The 3D-style animation works well and my hats off to the designers. I often found myself amazed by the detail paid to the characters' hair. Just check out the finely laid baby hairs and the jerry curl on an alien tiger if you don't believe me! The voice acting is also a real highlight. Voice acting doesn't get the recognition it should, but a gorgeous animation can fall flat if the voice acting is subpar. Everyone of the cast does a great job and really sells their part and the comedy. This is great for kids and/or adult fans of animation because cartoons aren't just for kids. Definitely recommend.

The short runtime and very good CGI along with a well worn story, helps this show tremendously. The kids are a bit on the extra side, really pushing the boundaries on what parents allow.

The action scenes are well done, the characters are well fleshed out except Vax, (maybe a season 2?)

As a father myself, I could understand where the titular character was going through and also sometimes mistakenly thinking that making money for your family will make up for the feelings of guilt not being around as much.

I would recommend this to parents and the family, a bit violent towards the latter part, but can be done away by looking at the message they're trying to convey.

Making time with your family, being honest with them and always means for than providing for them.
