Chowder

About a year ago Chowder started playing on Cartoon Network and I have been a fan since day one! This show is about Chowder, a cat, bear bunny thing that is an apprentice of Mung Daal, a very old blue man. Mung is the greatest cook in the world and makes funny dishes such as Beveled eggs and Crabige cobbler. All of the food names are puns. Ex:Blutter (butter)I am 16 and not a lot of people I know watch it because they say cartoons are for kids. I really don't care because I am enjoying Chowder too much. Most of the T.V I watch are cartoons. But if you like The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack I can guarantee that you will like Chowder twice as much.This show is great for kids and also for adults. I watch it with my 6 year old sister and my 35 year old father and we all laugh until it hurts! The reason most older people watch this show is because it has a lot of adult humor but is still very appropriate for all ages. You are making a very big mistake if you are saying, "I don't watch cartoons" Because you are missing out on one of the funniest shows on T.V. Give it a chance.

Honestly this series comes from a creator who's done Grim and Spongebob. So it seems like a lot of the material is recycled. But this show reminds me of the first season of Spongebob greatly underrated. The writing seems excellent but I think they need better directors. The jokes look good but you get the feeling it could of been way funnier. Chowder himself is a funny and adorable character who is greatly voice acted but the real character who shine are Mung and Schnitzel. Seriously the voice acting is great in this show how you can make as great of character as Schnitzel(who only says Rada) is ridiculous. Mung is breath of fresh air in TV cartoons. While new cartoons are opting for a more edgy (Mr. Krabs, Kanuckles) type mentor character. Mung does a really good job of standing out he's witty, funny, and loud mouthed. Anyway it's beautifully animated has excellent potential and I hope itdoesn't get canceled before its time.

I am a junior in high school, and I have been raised on cartoons. I was raised with great shows such as Ed Edd n Eddy, Rocko's Modern Life, Dexter's Laboratory, Courage, and Johnny Bravo. However, I have come to find that today's cartoons are awful. I will sometimes check out Cartoon Network to see what is playing, and I ended up with horrible dribble such as George of the Jungle, Camp Lazlo, Ben 10, Flapjack, and Johnny Test. However, my faith was resurrected when I happened to come across an interesting new show called Chowder...

Let me just say that Chowder is AWESOME! I won't tell you much about it so you can see for yourself, but let me tell you that this is a completely original and hilarious cartoon. I laugh a lot whenever I watch it. The show has an almost psychedelic element to it, which makes it fun to watch. The show has some great characters, interesting plot lines, great voices, and unique animation. I love everything about it. The story revolves around food (the main character is a chef's apprentice.) Everyone on the show has some kind of food for a name, which include Chowder, Mung-Daal, Shnitzel, Truffles, Penneni, Endive, Gorgonzola, Gespatcho, Chestnut, and Reuben. The humor is usually original and is sometimes completely twisted. Half the time I forget that the show was made for kids, because the humor can be truly appreciated by adults. It's just a great show overall.

If you feel that good 'ol cartoons are dead, this show is definitely worth a look. Who knows, maybe you'll change your mind about cartoons...

With shows such as Ed,Edd,& Eddy and The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy becoming irrelevant on Cartoon Network, I, at the time, thought this show would be the confirmation of the death of an era. An era that saw shows like Courage the Cowardly Dog, the first 2 shows that I mentioned, and the classics Dexter's Lab and Johhny Bravo. I only just listened to the first few episodes, and it wasn't until I sat down to watch it that I realized my assumption was wrong. This show is downright hilarious. The characters are just as hilarious with Chowder being a mix of a bear, cat, and Rabbit, and Snitzel being a rock monster that only speaks "Radda,Radda." There is also the classic line "I almost had something to live for." All in all this cartoon just has style. And sadly Cartoon Network is not capitalizing on this by adding garbage shows like George of The Jungle and Johnny Test.

-Really creative with naming things after foods. -Iconic style and animation. -Stories were usually very interesting and world building was very enjoyable.

-Some gross out humor was just too much. -Some characters kinda lose their personalities in some episodes to fit the story.
