Hotel Transylvania: La serie

I stumbled across this show by accident - and I love it. I love the setting, I love the writing, and I love the (voice) acting. Mavis has become my #2 cartoon crush after Scooby-Doo's Velma Dinkley (I know, my choices probably say a lot about me!), she's hilarious. A fun way to fill a quarter of an hour! 8/10

Very meh show but I can't really find a reason to dislike it all that much. My kid watches it occasionally and because I keep an eye on what he watches, I get a dose of whatever is on :-/ This isn't the worst thing but it's not super inspiring either. The positives are the young cast of voice actors do a nice job and the animation is pretty expressive. The script is typical and same old tired scenarios leave it in the dust when you compare it to Home or even The Croods series. Anyone complaining that these companies just turn EVERYTHING into an animated tv series to squeeze cash should know that when I was a kid, we had animated tv series of not only EVERY Disney movie but also adult films like the Mask and Dumb and Dumber. And they're never in the film canon. They had a pet beaver in Dumb and Dumber. These companies ALWAYS grabbed for cash. At least they don't make toys of the series as much now.

Once again Disney has a hit with a movie and the proceeds to ruin it by making it into a TV show with low quality animation.

It's OK to spend some of your money in order to produce a quality TV show for children.

By the way, it's not only my opinion. My kids hate the look of the show too!

Why does everything need a franchise? What is so special about Hotel Transylvania to warrant a sequel and a T.V. series? When I first saw Hotel Transylvania for my fourteenth birthday, I thought that it was pretty fair and Mavis was cringe-worthily foolish as a child. And because I wasn't a big fan of the first film, I didn't know if I wanted to see the sequel.

This series is coming from a company that has never made a great animated film that I've seen from them. I caught the last 20 minutes of the first episode and the whole thing was just clichéd. It had lowbrow humor, a replaced voice cast when the original voice cast were okay, and an again, clichéd plot. I even want to say the animation is mostly bad but it's hard to get used to the new 2.D. animation.

This series doesn't seem to have anything to do with the sequel. Why do I need to know more about Mavis and company? They already showed her as a child, growing up, learning how to fly and I think that's enough.

Like all movies converted into a TV-series, this is supposed to happen before the first movie. Dracula only has a few cameos (The best character in the show!), they've added a really annoying slime/blob/nerd character and the main character has a completely different personality from the movie. The animation is just fine, it's not hand drawn and fluid, but flash animated and almost seems like it's missing frames. It just stutters a lot. The main character's design looks like someone from "Star vs the Forces of Evil", which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Too much slapstick, which doesn't really work when the animation is so limited and stiff. Horrible jokes too
