Trem Infinito

It's a must watch. It made me laugh, and almost cry. They use familiar elements but at the same time are original. You connect with the characters and feel what they feel (especially in season 3, I hated that guy) This is hands down the best show I ever watched. Yep, you heard it from me, folks. It doesn't seem "kiddy" to me at all. In fact, I think all ages would love this series. I sure hope it makes at least 8 seasons.

Infinity Train is really in a class of its own when compared to other exceptional modern cartoons. It's animation and soundtrack are beautiful. But what really sets it above anything I've seen is it's complex characters, expansive worlds, and incredible balance between light moments and very realistic heartaching darker ones. It's the perfect anthology series, each book really drives home a certain point, different than the one before, while resolving unanswered questions that grow as the series progress. For me, book one hit the hardest because it appealed to a lot of specific emotions I had over topics they explored. While my friend who also loves the series had the most attachment to book 2. I think the show is really masterful in that everyone can individually draw something from the different themes in each book.

Me and my ma watched the whole thing in two days (S1 on the 1st day, S2 the next) and OH BOY WE LOVED IT. The show really reminds me of Adventure Time, which is my mother's favorite show and one of my favorite shows. This show is so funny and intriguing and sad at times... a wild ride and an awesome ride. I was obsessed for weeks. 10/10 would binge again and again. Can't wait for S3!

When I hear raves for children-aimed programming my concern is it's being graded on a kids curve. But even though I'm in my 60s I found this series to be funny, imaginative, well-written, and well worth watching.

Each season follows a different hero but ingeniously each hero is a character from the season before, so you have a coherent, connected world even though the entire design is of a million random mini-universes. It's so well done.

That being said, I do think the first episode was a bit better than the other two. But after watching the first three seasons in a week I am eager to see what happens next.

This show for me was very reminiscent of Over the Garden Wall, which is one of my favorite shows. The way it dealed with mature topics separates this from other shows, and the execution of the overall series was fantastic.
