Legend of the Three Caballeros

Unfortunate that the show has only been released in the Philipines so far, but I can testify that this show is genuinely fantastic. Finally, it seems like Disney has returned to the type of classic, on-model animation that made it so popular. It is a perfect hommage to the original film and classic Disney short subject of the 30s and 40s in both humor and visuals. Some of the regular voice actors gave been replaced (Jaime Camil is now the voice of Panchito, which fits him like a glove), but the voice acting is still terrific. Storylines and adventure scenarios are very genuine and exciting, and not too cluttered or deflated with bad jokes. The show also takes clear influence from the Carl Barks and Don Rosa comics, including the inclusion of Daisy's nieces, April May and June instead of the usual Huey, Dewey and Louie (thereby cleverly solving the "Smurfette effect") and Clinton Coot.

Remarkable how refreshing it can be to just not follow the crowd for once, and go back to the roots of these classic characters. It makes the series stand out from the crude, angular, and endlessly sarcastic/self-referential cartoons that dominate today's TV sceens. A true Disney renaissance!

This show is spectacular on many fronts. The animation, though t is flash and occasionally wonky, is vivid and fluid. The writing is witty and wacky, being a true return to form with Disney duck cartoons and comics in sheer insanity and snappy jokes without relying on the irony and cynicism that plagues the Ducktales reboot. But most spectacular of all are the sheer amounts of extremely obscure Disney characters peppered in through.

This is a show made by fans for fans of Disney, and its a shame how abysmally Disney has treated it.

The three caballeros deserve they're own show, so I'm really glad this exists! This show is filled with fun adventure, great animation, a very talented voice cast (I love you Wayne Knight) and so much more!

However, the humor falls a bit flat for me and you get really bored with some character dynamics, like the constant arguing of Felldrake and Sheldgoose. Also José lacks real personality, which is a real shame. You do have to remember though that there are only 13 episodes of the show, and I'm sure that writers would have put more depth into the characters if they had more time. They even said that if there was a season 2, it would focus more on José.

I feel like this show just suffers from first season jitters and if Disney would greenlit this for a second season, I'm sure the show would improve! For what it is, I do enjoy it. It's a fun, chill watch for all Donald Duck and the Three Caballeros fans. 8/10.

First this year we were introduced to the new remake of Donald Duck, Scrooge McDuck, Webby Vanderquack, Launchpad McQuack, and of course Huey, Dewey, and Louie's greatest adventures in the world of Ducktales. Now Disney has brought back the famous 3 Caballeros introducing once again Donald Duck, along with Jose Carioca, Panchito Gonzalez, Ari the Aracuan Bird, Daisy's nieces April, May and June, and a new face Xandra the Goddess of Adventure.

The story introduces us to a new world of adventure, where we have Donald, Jose and Panchito be brought together by their own ancestors in the hopes of keeping the secret world of magic in the universe safe and contained. We are also introduced to another key character Xandra, who had partnered with the original 3 Caballeros many years ago, and only now been released from her curse by a mysterious golden book containing valuable information for their journey to come.

First off, the animation is definitely a straight-on positive for this show since it not only captures the movement, setting and especially characters and their styles of behaviour greatly, but it also acts as a significant callback to the original animation styles and formats used with the very first appearance of the 3 Caballeros for their film back in 1944.

The story itself has a very entertaining aspect to it considering it shows us many historical sites and legends we know of today (both mythological and scientifically proven), with a very adventurous and often time mysterious approach to it while throwing in some side stories and comedy aspects along the way. The show also has a knack for keeping the audience in suspense for the next episode by showing a teaser for the next plot at the end of each episode.

The characters for this series is also a big highlight we get to explore and understand throughout each episode. We see the development through the way each of them would interact with one another over time, we see how each character would react under a certain circumstance such as Donald's tantrums every time something doesn't go the way it's supposed to, or Jose's influencing abilities whenever he sees the opportunity to do so, and we also understand much more about everyone's personalities, interests and goals at the end of the day.

I also love how a series like this also gives many classic characters a chance to shine once again and show everyone how enjoyable and amazingly fun they can be. As examples, we finally see Daisy's nieces April, May and June make their very first debut with not just a speaking voice, but also as series regulars. Jose and Panchito have been making minor appearances here and there in cartoons like House Of Mouse and Mickey Mouse Works, but now they have the chance to show their true feathers within this series along with their pal Donald Duck.

Overall, a very lovable cartoon Disney has brought us yet again, and although it's mainly targeted at younger viewers, it's still got the skills to treat it like something for all viewers to watch and enjoy. I would definitely recommend this show to anyone who's looking for another fun and enjoyable cartoon to watch and tag along with, as well as anyone who would love to see more from the famous classical trio, the 3 Caballeros.

Legend of the three Caballeros is a good series, it had a good cliffhanger and its a success with audiences this series really deserves a 2nd season.
