The Search for WondLa

Wondla is a terrific kids show based on the hero's quest. Original characters and has enough to enthrall parents and kids alike.

Our hero goes on a journey to see whether there are any other humans alive. She meets interesting characters along the way, some who help and others who cause problems.

It is set in a future earth, after humans have wrecked the place, with evidence of pollution all around.

There are twists and turns, and heart warming moments as much as there is adventure and drama.

We can't wait for season two, and hope it is not too far away! The last episode finished on a cliffhanger so we are keen to find out what happens next!

I am still in the 3rd episode but i am loving this. What a concept to broaden the sci-fi genre through animation which is very appropriate for this fresh type of concept. Storyline is so refreshing from all those typpical garbage that every 10000s of otts are churning out without any original ideas , well some are original and binge watch worthy , but some in hundreds of thousands is not something to be hopeful for. The relationship between Eva and Muther is best. Their daughter-not-mother chemistry is what made me hooked and the mystery behind the story is what will hook you further . I know in today's age everyone's a critic but enjoying fresh concept will keep you in fresh mood.

I am definitely finishing wondla till the last.

I really had fun watching this show! WondLa is a sci-fi fantasy filled with thrills and adventure. It has eye-popping animation that is very entertaining. The characters are diverse and unexpected.

This television series is based on the book, "The Search for WondLa," by Tony DiTerlizzi. It tells the story of Eva (Jeanine Mason), a courageous and lively teenager, who has spent her life in bunker training for her first moment above ground. The only family that she has known is Muther (Teri Hatcher), a very cautious robot, that teaches her about Earth and how to protect herself. Eva soon gets the surprise of her life when she learns that everything she has been taught is no longer true.

WondLa had me on the edge of my seat. The animation made me feel like I had walked into a whole new world. The setting has everything, from flying whales to enormous man-eating butterflies. It depicts an Earth that has been transformed into Orbona, a world filled with the unexpected. The backgrounds are detailed and colorful. It is impossible to see everything in just one viewing. My favorite character is Eva's Omnipod (D. C. Douglas). Omni is the most humorous character. I love that, even though his tone does not change, he can still make you laugh with his short and witty statements. The characters are either adorable or terrifying. Otto (Brad Garrett) is a gigantic, water bear-like creature. He is a kind and loyal friend that is constantly helping Eva get out of tough situations. On the other hand, there is Besteel (Chike Okonkwo), a scary and towering villain with sharp teeth and a hunched back. I screamed when this character was first introduced. I could not wait to see what new character Eva would meet next.

The film's message is about friendship. Eva spent the first years of her life wishing to meet humans just like her, so that she could finally have a family. Each episode proves that friends can take any shape or form. WondLa celebrates differences! Parents should be aware that the show does have some violence and dangerous activities.

I give WondLa 4.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 12. The first seven episodes of WondLa premiere globally on June 28, 2024 on Apple TV+. By Kinsley H., KIDS FIRST!

Although not a fan of the content on this streaming service, I came across this nugget during a free promo. Vibrant colors and interesting alien characters with an ample amount of action and excitement, the series was much better than I thought it was going to be. What surprised me probably the most is how dark some of the story was, but it is the story of the HOOMAN race. I enjoyed the dark aspect and I feel it gave this animated series an adult audience.

The star studded cast did an adequate job. Just not understanding why they didn't have Alan Tudyk use his enormous talent and play a more versatile roll.

While initially I wasn't sure about season 2, by the time the last episode ended I found myself even more in love with both seasons. The way 2.7 ended left me almost in tears, so emotionally drained and I mean in the best of ways. While I love the story, the characters, the acting, the animation is truly incredible and otherworldly. Watching the credits I'm amazed at the absolute army of incredibly talented folks responsible for the art and CG. The last 10 minutes of episode seven are off the charts, so beautiful. Thank you Apple for sponsoring this animation masterpiece.

And thank you to Jeanine Mason, DC Douglas, Teri Hatcher, Gary Anthony Williams, Brad Garrett, Allen Tudyk and the rest of the cast and crew for this wonderful show, and of course Tony DiTerlizzi. This story of optimism and hope is so very much needed in our world right now.

Truly there is no Them, only Us.
