This show had me worried at first, but it is actually great. It has a lot of creative film mediums in it, (similar to the amazing world of gumball), which adds to the creativity. I'd say the best part of this show is the comedy it has. It is full of clever jokes, and things that make me laugh out loud. The only thing that isn't that great is parts of the stories. Some of the bad guys seem a little boring, and it is sometimes very predictable. But you have to keep in mind, this was made for young children, so a lot of things will be entertaining to them that might seem old to the elderly. I would definitely recommend this show to any fans of the books.
We are huge fans of the books and loved the film. But this series takes the boys and the Cap'n to ANOTHER LEVEL! The little boy in my head is so happy, as are the kids in our house. Enjoy, you will not regret it.

As a kid, I read all the captain underpants books, and was fond of them. After watching the captain underpants movie that came out not too long ago, I gotta be honest, I was quite disappointed. It didn't really feel like captain underpants. This show however, is surprisingly really good! I started watching it skeptically with my younger siblings, but actually found myself really enjoying it! It stays true the books, and if you were a fan of them, I would give it a watch! It might surprise you!
Having read the novels when I was a kid, I can say that this show is much better than I expected. The humour is fresh and super meta, and the best part - it's actually pretty funny. This show is plain dumb fun, there needs to be a season 2!!
I think that a show is a much better way to adapt the books since they were relatively short and their over all structure translates better into a show then a movie. And also the 2d animation is a much better way to adapt the books as well, the show is litlerly the Books but animated and I think that was a good idea.
