Green Eggs and Ham

Green Eggs and Ham is a classic book from Dr. Seuss, one of the greatest children's book writers to ever live. When I first saw the trailer for this, I was skeptical, as Dr. Seuss' works has had a long reputation of having a mixed-to-negative reception since the 2000's (especially with the horrible live-action Cat In The Hat movie that basically was so bad and filled with a lot of kid-unfriendly content, that Dr. Seuss' widow banned any more live action films, hence why starting with Horton Hears A Who, they have been strictly computer animated).

This new cartoon (exclusive to Netflix) basically takes the book and makes it fresh. In this, Sam-I-Am breaks a Chickeraffe out of the zoo with the intention of bringing it back into its habitat. However, he gets his suitcase mixed up with failed inventor Guy-I-Am (who is the guy Sam harasses in the original book), and the two are on the run, as a greedy businessman named wants the Chickeraffe as a trophy, and has hired two bounty hunters to hunt the duo down.

Yeah, this is a different plot than the book's plot of Sam harassing Guy to eat the title meal until he breaks and does it, although it is still squeezed in, with each episode being based on a part of the book where Guy will not eat them in. Also, the series is written well, and the new characters add to Sam and Guy's adventure.

It may look likes its for kids but peole of all ages can enjoy! Excellent story with lots of interesting twists and an emotional roller coaster that is on par with Pixar movies!

My kid is glued to this show. It's actually beautifully animated and pretty funny for adults as well. I love the storyline and voice acting.

I went into Green Eggs and Ham because IT.WAS.EVERYWHERE. Everyone said it's really good and eventually I gave in because it looked like something I might like. Even tho I came in with not many expectations, I left very satisfied and happy. I loved the show.

This series has absolutely gorgeous visuals. The animation is unique and high quality. I like how wacky and cute it looks. All the facial expressions and over-exaggerated movements really brought the world to life. The character designs were something I got used to. Don't get me wrong, they are super adorable but not really my taste (never really been a fan of Dr.Seuss' work). The world was very interesting too. I like how they just went with all the cartoon logic machines and weird creatures.

Good voice acting makes good characters. You can really tell that the actors were giving their all to the performance and they totally nailed it. All the characters had a distinguishable voice, speech pattern and vocabulary.

The story was enjoyable to follow. I really got sucked into it after the first episode. The foreshadowing and plot twists were great. They weren't too predictable and they made sense as they came. Every character was unique and fun in their own ways. I was rooting for pretty much everybody except Goat and Snerz

I hope this gets another season :)))

I never expected myself to be sucked in by a Netflix show based off of Dr. Seuss' Green Eggs and Ham, but for whatever reason the show-runners committed hard to this premise. It's definitely directed towards kids, but the execution is nothing short of brilliant. The animation is beautiful, it has tons of really clever sight-gags and jokes, even if some of them don't land, you barely notice because the show runs at such a brisk pace. I don't know, but everything about the show felt very genuine and sweet, and it's nice to see a Seuss adaptation that's not completely awful.
