मिकी माउस फनहाउस

Lacks the fun of the Mixed-Up Adventures and any learning that was in Clubhouse. It's a dulled down version of the new Mickey Mouse stuff for strictly younger audiences, but doesn't add any of the problem solving or secret learning from Clubhouse. So what was the point? To continue to isolate Mickey Mouse and friends from a wider audience?

The first episode tries to grab those who loved Roadsters with a superfluous ride and eollercoaster moment at the very beginning. And then the Hotdog dance and the upgraded theme are ruined my kid wasn't as interested in the show beginning. Then we have some convoluted reasons for our new friend Funny leaving behind all the great and interesting characters we developed in Hotdog Hills over the last 3 years.

But the worst absolute worst part is that stupid dance break music at the very end of the episode. If parents were indifferent to the rest If the episode that alone should ruin it for you.

So I'm writing this as a person with a two year old. We don't watch that much tv but he gets about 30 minutes in the morning with dad in bed between mom going to work at 8 and dad has to work at 9. It's really not that bad but I feel I need to emphasize how much better Roadster racers and mixed up adventures were. I love the new adaptation of characters that are mainly for little kids but not dumb enough to make me answer questions directed at the tv. The characters have some sort of development despite it being one episode before another. Daisy especially was usually hilarious. But funhouse has all these horrible songs and back to a very confusing theme. Not a fan. It's better than clubhouse but not by much because now I have crazy songs.

Edit: bring back Daisy's voice! What the heck happened to Tress. So irritated to even listen to this.

The house sounds like "Pat". Its sounds like male for a few words, then a min later its using a female tone. Its like that voice someone would make to sound stupid. Its awful. The wiggle song gets on my last nerve with its annoying sequence of odd notes.

Summary: Yet another Mickey Mouse series. Think of it as like Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, but with less interactivity and the same animation as Roadster Racers/Mixed-Up Adventures. Made because Disney needs to have Mickey.

Writing: Much better writing than Clubhouse, because it feels more organic and natural compared to the interactivity of Clubhouse. The first episode "Mickey the Brave", is surprisingly clever. The Sensational Six debate on whether or not dragons are good or bad. Some of the characters, like Clarabelle and Pete, think that all dragons are bad just because one dragon was bad to them. And as it turns out, Farfus didn't mean any harm. He only wanted to play. It gives a strong message that you should get to know people without judging them. One person is not representative of an entire group. And there's always an underlying cause for things. 2/2

Characters: The show is a major step-up from previous incarnations because Mickey isn't self-centered. Not everything is themed after him. The rest of the Sensational Six are written normally. There's also a new character named Funny, who is the titular Funhouse. He's like Toodles but he's a house. However, I'm not fond of him so far. He's just a deus ex machina. 1/2

Music: The music in the show is generally unremarkable, except for some moments that use the signature Mickey Mouse Clubhouse theme - M-I-C-K-E-Y, M-O-U-S-E. I find that quite clever. 1/2

Animation: Pretty excellent animation. It serves to show that CGI has come a long way since 2006, and is very colorful. 2/2

Voice Acting: All the signature voice actors are back. And Minnie's new voice actress is a great replacement for Russi Taylor. That's all there is to say, 2/2

In total, 8/10. I recommend this to young Mickey fans and older Disney cartoon fans.

I love how Disney Jr made their shows going faster pace these days which may look entertaining for adults and the ones with Disabilities including me.

I love Mickey Mouse Funhouse because It Mickey Mouse and his pals goes to so many Adventure Doors to many exciting places, I also enjoy it have a lot of GIF videos of it too.
