Rubble & Crew

With Paw Patrol still going strong, spin-offs were going to be inevitable, and with Rubble being a fan favorite, he gets to have the first spin-off.

In this show, Rubble has teamed up with his family, including his Auntie Crane, Grandpa Gravel, and cousins Wheeler, Charger, Mix, and Motor, when they are called to Builder Cove by Mayor Greatway, the sister of Mayor Goodway. There, the family goes on to help the people of Builder Cove, from building new buildings to solving problems that occur.

This spin-off takes the formula for PAW Patrol, but instead of rescues, superheroes, and other gimmicks meant to serve as ways to make new toys, this show focuses on construction (for now, but who knows when it will get gimmicks of its own). Episode not only have stories where the crew helps someone in Builder Cove by building something (be it a bigger shop or a new shop), but also, there are stories where the pups have a problem to solve, and they use their construction skills to find a solution (or as Rubble calls it, a construction solution), which helps keep things fresh as well as teach problem solving skills.

However, it loses a star due to how some of the new characters are similar to characters on Paw Patrol (Mayor Greatway is close to her sister, even having a pet duck named Mr. Ducky-Doo to serve as her Chickeletta, and Speed Meister, a recurring antagonist of the series, can be seen as the show's version of Paw Patrol's Mayor Humdinger), but this is a great spin-off Paw Patrol fans young and old will enjoy.

Yes it's not exactly high art but my kids love it and have been watching it more than its bigger more famous brother. I'd say it's a worthy addition to the PPEU (Paw Patrol Extended Universe). The pups are super cute and the storylines are wholesome and entertaining, plus the theme tune is incredibly catchy. Our favourite pup is Wheeler, although we're not sure why he isn't a bulldog like the others! Love the fact that side characters pop up throughout the series, for example Truffles the pig. Wheeler's friendship with Truffles has been hilarious to watch. I have only seen the UK version but the voice acting is great with the exception of some annoying catchphrases! The pups actually sound like little kids, and personally I much prefer that to casting adults. Lots of character and heart. Overall, a great little show that I'm sure will just get better and better as the characters continue to develop.

So, paw patrol exists right? Well nickelodeon sees that paw patrol all they see is cash. It was good in its like first 4 seasons, then they converted nick jr. Into nickpawpatrol. The movies are good, but let's be honest, its all a cash grab. The animation is so cursed, like Ryder looks like my sleep paralysis demon. There milking the franchise like SpongeBob and Peppa Pig, whenever something is doing nothing like SpongeBob and Paw Patrol, they remove it with paw patrol or rubble and crew, lets set an example, Super Duper Bunny League, a show which in my opinion is a mid show, was only on the air for like a 2 months or something, the nick executives are like "Oh, this show is not doing good, let's throw it into the "On Hiatus" hole" like im giving it a one star for a reason, its just a cash grab. I wish nickelodeon gave original ideas a chance and didn't set HIGH expectations.

So as I've said I like the original show PAW Patrol but this show has everything bad about modern PAW Patrol in it cranked up to 10 now the only reason it was made is because Corus wanted some of the cash PAW Patrol gets but TVOntario and GURU didn't want to sell because competitor so they decided to make their own show and the human characters are dumber than PAW Patrol like the mayor in this show forgot to build a bridge like how do you forget to build a bridge? Now will I watch this show no the 2 episodes I've seen makes me want to put PAW Patrol on and forget this piece of garbage exist. Now if I were you put on PAW Patrol or even Dora because this show is just a sad attempt for Corus to make money.

This show is another one dedicated to the neo-con values that family and private entreprise is the cornerstone in a society and that politicians are inept, corrupt, stupid or all the above. It also highlights the waste in public management as there are no need for planning permits, workers safety, building codes or ever neighbor notice to get things done. Utter exploitation of kids time and parents money. All the "adult" characters are terrible, the episode plots are variations of two themes and its all about pushing toys. I would hope the producers of this show has problems sleeping at night and suffers from permanent bad hair day.
