OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes

I love OK K. O. It's a fun and enjoyable series I feel like any one of any age can watch. I love that platonic friends in the show can STAY platonic friends in the show, unlike some OTHER shows I know (Danny Phantom, Steven Universe and Star vs. The forces of evil, I'm looking at you). All the characters have their own personality, and the show heavily references game culture and coding culture without seeming pretentious.

This show is also able to be rewatched without spoiling the fun. One of the best shows I've seen seen since 2012 and I'm so sad it got cancelled.

OK K.O Is A Really Good Shows For Multiple Different Reasons It Lasted 3 Seasons And Got Somewhat The Attention It Deserved But OK K.O Did Something That I Haven't Seen In A While In Modern Cartoons Be Proud Of How Silly It Actually Is And Embrace The Silliness Factor

70s disco-esque theme song. 80s influenced colors and visuals. Dragon Ball Z esque action/humor! What more can you say about OK KO?

Ian Jones-Quarterley's lovechild of 90s media nostalgia is a welcome antidote against Cartoon Network's otherwise abysmal programming. Consisting of the exploits of the naive yet eager KO(knock-out to the layman) and his more cynical teenage companions, Radicles, the picolo inspired alien show-off and Enid, the Shantae inspired slacker.

All three work for the overbearing commandeering shirtless Mr. Gar at Lakewood Plaza Turbo. Rounding out this offbeat group of heroes is KO's wrestler mom, Carol, who works as the next door judo teacher nearby. The series keeps at a very quick pace right from the get- go, anime-expressions galore, and wacky out-of-nowhere visuals. It's not exactly clear what type of world the characters inhabit, but it's main premise should be relatable to anyone. It's amazing how they get so much out of these rather simplistic character designs. It isn't exactly Adventure Time influenced, it's more Steven Universe/Bee and Puppycat influenced, yet has as much of a violent sadistic bite as the classic Powerpuff Girls. Another part that I like about it is that it's character outlines resemble the roughness of a pencil, as if they were actually drawn.

If you don't really play classic 16 bit video games, or 1990s Japanese anime, it's likely a lot of these references will go over your head. But if you want a kick-butt show on Cartoon Network, look no further than OK KO: Let's be Heroes.

Honestly I hope this show doesn't get cancelled any time soon because Cartoon Network dosen't seem to be doing very well ever since Regular Show got canceled and seem to be only wanting to do constant marathons of Teen Titans Go! in the USA cartoon network.

Although the animation and character designs need improving but it's not that bad.

naomi Mbugua/Spacething7474 your nothing but the worst excuse for troll and person who has a bad taste in shows. Honestly? "It's trying to be the next Steven Universe?", "I hope it gets cancelled soon because it stinks" I can't believe there is person like you on this site who can handle garbage like Breadwinners, Teen Titans Go! and The problem solverz? Truly I am a shamed and disappointed.

Anyways if you haven't seen this show yet i would definitely recomand it.

I've been following this pilot since they released the Mobil game last year and I played the crap out of that as well as watching the pilot and promotional shorts over and over again to tell CN how much people wanted this as a full series. And to hear 6 episodes got released a month and a half early filled me up with so much joy. After watching those episodes. I can say that OK KO............Is part of a complete breakfast....or as Tony the tiger would say "GREAT!". It pays inspiration to anime, video games, comic books. I like how it's kinda of like an episodic show that has potential to have a on going narrative that delves into the lore of the world and the origins of the characters and after watching the few first episodes, they foreshadow that. This show can go places, with shows like Adventure time and Gumball wrapping up their production and those ever nasty Teen Titans looking to cause trouble for CN's schedule, as well as upcoming shows like Uni-kitty and Apple and Onion which could go both ways, I hope that KO can big a big hit for the Network and the odds of that are looking good. And Ian Jones really deserves this, he is a really talented cartoonist and writer. And it just goes to show, if your pilot fails once, it doesn't mean it won't get green lite at all.
