Oddballs

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.

To start, I've watched theodd1sout's videos on YouTube a while ago, and to see him grow to get his own Netflix show was astounding. His animation quality has improved drastically over the years from simple stills on a blank background to fully fledged animated characters against vibrant scenes.

But anyways, I decided to watch an episode to see how I liked it and to be honest it wasn't really for me. It's not because it's bad or anything, which it most definitely is not, but it's because I'm not the intended audience. The humor is more for a younger audience, so I didn't really find the jokes to be super funny and kind of cringed at some of them. But again, it's for a younger audience, so I'm willing to set that aside.

Visually, the animation is of a high quality. What I've seen in this show was incredibly impressive, with fluid and smooth movements, probably on a higher level than that of some more well-known cartoons nowadays. The simple design was appealing to view and wasn't overly colorful and dramatic.

In terms of audio / voicing, the sound effects worked well and weren't used in excess or in inappropriate scenarios. The voice acting in my opinion was pretty average, I didn't really have any major qualms with it. Overall, nothing too much to say about the audio which is a good thing.

In short, it's a great show for your kids! If you're in an older age group though I don't think you'll get the same level of enjoyment out of it, but it's still a fairly good show, nonetheless. I look forward to seeing what else James comes up with next and wish him luck on his future endeavors.

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.

James has tried really hard with the script but I doesn't work. The shows plot isn't clear enough for the audience and isn't that special as the plot for each episode is basic and unique. The character doesn't seem interesting and is partly based off his YouTube persona with a bit of tweaking making him small are more childish. The only good character on the show is Max as he has a more interesting and unique backstory making the show better.

In conclusion, the show is okay and isn't mind blowing. The character surrounding the main character are more interesting than him and make the episodes more 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.
