Animalia

Memorable characters, interesting show overall. Nothing spectacular, but a fun show anyway.

I've heard a lot of people dishing this series but I'm sorry much of this was not that far off the mark - there is a lot worse out there. Where it fell short is in producing a strong identity. The stories seemed to be written safe and secure in not offending anyone. They were imaginative in what they wanted to achieve but could have been better delivered. The look of animalia was good with painterly backgrounds. The design was strong and many of the themes challenging. I think at the end of the day more time needed to be spent on it. It should have been created with a stronger connection to Graeme Bases books and expect that many went to the series expecting that. Dialogue and character were also ho hum and I think that is where the series fell over. It turned out to be a bit of a stocking filler but had the potential to be more.

7/10 mainly because i was convinced this was a fever dream for about 13 years

idk it had animals and a tiger in a smoking jacket can't have been that bad
