As a regular viewer of the smurfs, I was happy when we got a new series. The plot is okay since I understood that the story is mostly episodic, but the voice acting in the English dub could use a bit more work, the voices were alright, but some lines were executed poorly IMO, its as if their voices were strained while they speak (Poet, Chef, Greedy, and Jokey's VA were good tho!). There were voices who didn't quite match the characters. I'm not sure if its the lack of available voice actors, but still some of them didn't match.

So yeah, I'm pretty much neutral with this series, mixed feelings with the dubs. I'm just hoping that it'll get better over time since I really love watching the smurfs and there's some potential for it to be better :D.

This new version of The Smurfs is slightly better than the 1980s cartoon series, but only in animation quality. Chef and Greedy are separate characters once again, along with Clumsy and Dimwitty. Baby Smurf makes a surprise return to the series, which is true since the little rugrat has not been seen since the 1980s. Brainy Smurf is no longer as self centered and arrogant as you'd expect, and his ego has been downplayed (reverting to a bookworm Smurf). While Hanna-Barbera was instrumental in extreme character build-up and taking artistic liberties in their version, this series is more accurate to the original comics. For some reason, characters such as The Smurflings, Grandpa Smurf, Nanny Smurf and Smoogle are absent. The Smurfy Grove inhabitants, on the other hand, make a fine addition to the series for a younger generation. Johan and Peewit don't appear in this series, which is quite sad because they were the ones involved in the Smurfs introduction from the "Magic Flute" story.

The only downside is the use of gross-out jokes, which never happened in the 1980s series. The biggest offender is "Who Nose?", where Hefty squirts booger substance at the other Smurfs in the end. Another downside is the show focusing more on the Smurfs, Gargamel and Bigmouth, which can get pretty boring to watch.

The animation is great, the pacing is faster, the story concepts are good stuff, but the character portrayals and voice acting is pretty mixed. Aside from that, the people in Belgium did a good job keeping the spirit of the original comics alive and The Smurfs were able to regain their original mischievous personalities they had once lost. It is not a continuation of the 1980s series, but an offshoot of the original comics. Overall, I give this new series a smurfy 6 out of 10.

This show is for kids. So why so nostalgic adults are bashing it? I can understand that you are not feeling the way you were on 1980 when you watched the first gen cartoons, but you were a kid and I remember the show was as corny as the one we got today.

Some here are trying to be a poor's man version of Leonard Maltin. How sad.

My kid loves this show and he's 3 years old. I don't expect him to still love the show in 20 years.

The 3D animation is very adequate, dialogues are made for kids to be entertain and Gargamel is as dumb as he always was. Giving 1 star for this show is pure bad faith.

Ok so if I watch one or two episodes that's fine but 3 or 4 in a row it makes me bored, and considering Nicktoons in my country (UK) sometimes airs it for an hour it shows that it makes me bored after 2 episodes, voices and storylines are fine.

Once again trying to destroy a classic tv show! Haha nice shot but well you can't I'm telling you, the smurfs is one and can not be two we all watched it in our childhoods and Im talking bout generations not 1 or 2.

For me this animation is really freaking bad very dumb and let me explain, The Smurfs (I mean the real 80s one) was and still uniqe, it was very simple we all loved it we can't forget that, making cartoons now are very diffrent & I know technology improving all the time but this looks like any gen alpha cartoon!! And why including super hero or this stuff in this idk.

In my opinion Tv cartoons has been rrruined because of this since years!!

This show reminds me of the 2017 movie called Smurfs The Lost Village and now this show is on Nickelodeon since 2021 i find this show way better than Thomas And friends All Engines Go i think this show is awesome in my opinion.

Although it's a little better than the truly dreadful live action smurf movies, this tv show reboot of the wonderful 1981-89 classic based on the 50's comic strip still has none of the charm nor style of the original, although it does have some funny moments, the rest is too predicable, self righteous and truly boring, the original smurfs had more bite it will, like the other reboots, smurfs was based on classics, what it doesn't have is the same level of charm as the original, papa smurfs just bores me

I Gave the smurfs a D.

The jokes are not funny, The Smurfs character personality are meh and the girl one is not in the original costume, it does have no butt and fart jokes for now and the Animation it great. Also it's based on a franchise that all ready was made.

I loved watching the Smurfs as a kid back in the 80s (though I knew them as Los Pitifufos as they were know in Spain) and I'm loving it now even more with my 3 year old daughter in this updated 3D 21st century remake! Brand new crazy adventures and some new characters but with all of the old charm. Fully recommended, especially since the release of the movies which brought them break into the spotlight. Short stories that are easy to follow for the youngest audience in the house, the ones screaming with excitement as my daughter does: run little Smurfs, run!!! After all, no one wants Gargamel to get his hands on Papa Smurf and company...

So we now have a new series of updated "The Smurfs", now done in glorious CGI, and wow it looks great.

I have watched 70 of the 11or12 mins episodes, which i think is almost all, its not too clear on here just how many there are at the moment, but i really loved them.

There does seem to of been quite a lot of negativity from some of the reviewers and i really dont know why, would you really prefer they were done in the old cartoon style like before.

As far as i can remember all the main characters from the original series are still here, so i highly recommend these new ones for children and adults alike.

9 smurf hats out of 10.

This is great because it is based on the 50's comics but my probulm is papa smurf bores me and he's mean.

And Katy perry is not in the show... overall the greatest show on earth.
