Disneys Kuzcos Königsklasse

Right, first things first, The Emperor's New School is not the best show on Disney, neither is it the worst. And is it as good as the film The Emperor's New Groove? No it isn't. But to be fair I wasn't expecting it to be, as the film was one of Disney's funniest, original and heartfelt films and by far and away one of the better post-Renaissance Disney movies. That said, this is a worthy and somewhat interesting series.

True, some of the story lines are on the repetitive and shallow side, and Kuzco can be a while to get used to at first as he is much more arrogant and self-centred(he can be rather dumb on occasions too) than he is in the movie to the point he is irritating, plus some of the episodes are a tad rushed. However, I loved the concept, it wasn't COMPLETELY original but it was an interesting concept at that.

The animation is beautiful, smooth, colourful and crisp as I like it, especially in the backgrounds. The characters can occasionally I agree be sugarcoated, but they are mostly sharp. The music is funky and memorable, while the writing is funny. Yes some of the jokes are taken from the original movie, but the delivery is fresh making it funny. And the voice acting is great. Patrick Warburton does a great job reprising his role as the clumsy but very likable Kronk, but the real kudos goes to Eartha Kitt who plays the villainess Yzma to hilarious perfection.

In conclusion, not brilliant but I like it- it is fun and interesting. Conversely if you want something more original and, dare I say it, funnier see the movie. 7/10 Bethany Cox

This is a fine and great Disney animation series for all viewers to watch. I am not sure that the storyline of this Disney animation series really fits in continuation to the films. The storyline throughout this entire Disney animation series was alright and strong enough to watch. The cast selection throughout this entire Disney animation series could have been a whole lot better and stronger. They did not exactly fully commit nor connect to the storyline nor to their respective characters. The chemistry that was displayed throughout this entire Disney animation series between the cast members could have been a whole lot better and stronger.

I'd give this a 7.5/10. Okay. The first few episodes (like 1-3) do re-use jokes, and are probably the worst out of the series, however, I'd say after the 3rd episodes it got pretty good. The jokes from season 1-2 are actually pretty smart! Sure, there's a few hit and misses but overall it's actually really funny.

One problem I do have sometimes the jokes can be TOO on the nose, but it doesn't happen all the time.

The characters stay pretty consistent to their personalities (though with Kuzco, he does miss that dry delivery and sarcasm, but he still has it a little, here and there.) I find Yzma and Kronks dynamic pretty funny. Definitely one of the best parts off the series, it's just so good. They both stay pretty consistent to their characters.

I like Malina, I find her generally likeable. She downsized Kuzco pretty well, making him a more likeable character facing consequences. Also playing as a foil to him as a character, which I like. (She COULD have been based off of Mata, actually,)

The animation is not as good as the movie, however, it still has its charm. It works for the humour they go with. They do sprinkle hints of fluid smooth animation throughout episodes! The backgrounds get much better in late season 1 to season 2.

Give it a watch!

At first, I wasn't sure how good this show was going to be. I mean, the previews made it look pretty lame. But to my surprise, when I watched the first episode, I found myself laughing several times. JP Manoux does a good job filling in as the voice of Kuzco for David Spade in my opinion. Pacha's voice needs help, but it's still passable. The new character, Malina, fits in without a flaw. And of course, Yzma and Kronk are back to try to make sure Kuzco fails, and they provide tons of laughs throughout each episode. They do re-use some of the jokes and lines from the movie in the first episode, but they don't much in the other episodes. I recommend that everyone at least check out one episode. I don't think you will be sorry. I'm not.

i thought it was gonna be a cool TV seres because i was a big fan of both the movies made with kuzco but it turns out that they did use a different dude for his voice in stead of David Spade the other dude I'm not sure what his name is but he reminded me of a another character from the original movie Kronks shoulder angel you can totally tell just by listening to him talk the show is kind of funny but not only kuzco but Patchas voice is different as well and the way they draw patcha who is normally played by john Goodman also changed as well and what happened to Birdwell in kronks new groove Kronk got married ,on The Emerors New School no Birdwell its like Kuzco is a small child trying to graduate its almost stupid actually and the theme song is so preppy i guess its not terrible but its not awesome either
