I watched the first two seasons. I thought it was engaging and well-done. I appreciated a glimpse into the history of the time. However, the story is harsh overall and difficult to watch. These kinds of shows hurt my soul. The war violence is expected, but there is also murder, sexual assault, etc. - I don't enjoy watching these things. Also, a couple scenes were too salacious for my taste.
Having said that, it appears this TV version of Sharpe might be more admirable than in the books - in the books he apparently has more of a criminal and a rogue personality. And I don't doubt the actual events were even worse in many cases than portrayed in this show.

I kept wanting to hate this - the robots are so cartoony, for one thing. Everything about the robots is cartoony.
But I kept not being able to hate it. The story was too interesting and engaging and it had some great messages.
Some things did feel a bit derivative of past productions. And Giancarlo Esposito is back doing the same character he always does. But I have a feeling this might be aimed at kids, and kids won't care about that. And I found it enjoyable as an adult. Christ Pratt and Ke Huy Quan are always enjoyable to watch. The special effects were well done, but didn't overwhelm the story.
The robots do have a lot of heart. And the movie made me laugh a few times. Plus one to my rating for these two things.
