La collezione maledetta

So "adventure archaeology" has been a stapple of popular culture for decades. Usually it focuses on obtaining artifacts, unfortunately ignoring the realities of colonialism and its unlawful theft of culturally important items.

So what if there was a show inversing that, restoring what has been lost to its rightful owners?

A show like that, with nice cel-shaded CGI animation, emotionally mature writting, extensive research into various cultures and mythologies and with mix-race family representation?

Yeah, all of that. This first season has been a blast, and I cannot wait for the promised season 2.

My kids and I are on our second watch. We watched it the first week of its release and finished it in two sittings. The trailer instantly caught our attention and we knew we would love it, and it did not disappoint our expectations. We are anxiously awaiting and desperately hoping for the second season. There's not many shows anymore that are good and stay good throughout and this rare gem captured us. From beginning to end and everything in between this show was an adventure and an absolute joy. We loved the animation and how different it was as well. I am lost count of how many times I googled if there is an update when season 2 will release and it hasn't even been a full year yet haha. Come on with it Apple TV!

I thought the story built up pretty well, the episodes connecting very well and the overall look pretty cool. The younger kids, seven and five seem to really like it and it wasn't too scary for them. I found some moments, pretty creepy myself, but it didn't seem to bother the little ones. I thought it looked good and sounded good. Good casting for voices, with some notable star voices. Looking forward to another season of this.

Like the headline says. This is fantastic. Not sure where the lower rating comes from. The animation is simple, but effective. The voice acting is understated, but realistic ish. I wish I had a show like this when I was a kid. The not so great rating is probably some strange political thing I don't understand. This is great for kids and adults in my opinion. Scary, but it walks the line to not be too scary. Probably great Halloween fare for younger kids and adults too. The cast is pretty great as well. A very fun and also spooky show about making things right through some historical education.

This new series has been great. The content is family friendly for my 9 and 12 year old children. A good mix of fun, scares, and smart dialogue that my children could relate to. Assume family we watched the first three episodes all at one time and wanted to watch more but because it was already past our children's normal bed time we didn't. Before we started the series I read that it was like Indiana Jones in reverse and I would have to agree. Some adventure, historical artifacts, supernatural, and good thoughtful moments for children to learn from. My family is looking forward to watching the rest of the series. It may help to know that another animated series we really enjoyed together was Troll Hunters.
