The Hollow

The story is perfect, and the simple art style is sweet and simple. The only problem is the humor which is quite weak. If you have Netflix I recommend this to you.

Season 1 was very creative and ended with a good conclusion. I loved it. But the show should've ended there. I felt very annoyed almost all the way through season 2. Hope they dont make season 3.

SPOILER: While I was watching the show I thought that it was pretty good and I still do, but when I got to the end though, it surprised me. Not in the good way. The ending made my mind go a different direction of thinking and that flooded over me and knocked me down (figuratively). I thought that they were going to wake up in some kind of lab to help cure some kind of futuristic disease. The ending, in my opinion, was not the best. Overall though, it was a good show.

The Hollow operates in the same pacing and logic (or lack of thereof) of a dream, things come and go quickly, the world around is a mystery and nothing really makes sense, and that might be a deal breaker for people that wanted a long and compelling story, rather than just a fun ride. The art style is a bit ugly, but it is in no way lazy and the animators do their best. The biggest let down is definitely the ending, regardless of what you wanted it to be, or if you already knew early on, it is very hasty, and very very very poorly made, and it has one of the things I hate the most in animation, it just made me cringe and almost ruined the show. The entire time I was thinking "this is one of those shows that really starts at season 2", but after that ending, I'm not sure it will or if I care. Still worth watching if you have free time, just don't bother if you find yourself not liking the characters, staying to find out the conclusion alone is not worth it. Strong 6 to a light 7

I had fun watching this, but I'd be hard-pressed to recommend this series to anyone above the age of 10.

Positives: Very good concept, reminiscent of a tabletop RPG. The mystery and action will keep you interested. There is an interesting world to discover in the Hollow. The characters are nothing special, but when they work together, they have a good dynamic.

Negatives: The dialogue is mostly stale. The humor is very hit and miss, emphasis on miss. The plot is sometimes nonsensical. It really sucks when the audience is much smarter than the characters. The series is not sure of what it is, is it a Rick and Morty style cartoon for adults? Is it aimed at teenagers? Is it aimed at children? No one knows. It tries to do all 3, but does so very badly. When characters are talking or trying to do something, there are annoying pauses between each character, which ruin the pacing.
