Overall, this is a very interesting series. Honestly, without exaggeration, from the very first episode until the middle of the second season, I thought I would give it 8(I don't really like this kind of graphics). But from the middle of the second season, the narrative of the story began a very rapid fall into the abyss called "the most stupid and banal clichés about heroes and villains". And even though this is, by and large, a children's animation, the plot has become madly predictable and no longer just for children, but for some babies... which personally caused a strong drop in interest for me me. Like the rating falling, up to 7.
In the end, the decision of some of the characters were also disappointing (here I supported the guy with the glasses with all my hands, I would have done so in his place too).
Great voice acting. Fast paced. Witty. Lots of fun. Tatiana Maslany!
It is what it is for a kid's show. One dimensional characters with slapstick humor that you pretend to laugh at but it's not really funny at all.
After Trollhunters I was expecting the same outstanding depth of storytelling. Clearly something went wrong along the way.

The good:
1. Crossover episodes with trollhunters were tons of fun.
2. Stuart (comic relief).
3. Great production value.
The bad: 1. Characters felt one dimensional and you didn't feel as invested in them as in trollhunters. 2. Jokes were overplayed and repeated. 3. Supposedly smart characters do dumb stuff all the time. 4. Weak story development especially in the way characters change allegiance.
It feels as tho this series is targeted at a younger audience then that of Trollhunters. It had great potential but fell short.

I think this is a classic case of a rather boring premise being put in the hands of great writers. The story itself is about as simple as you can get: another classic tale about aliens secretly taking refuge on Earth. As such I feel like I've already seen the story many times before. There's also a lot of plotholes, easily-confusing details and scenes that feel rushed. However, there are a few unique twists, and in addition the animation and actors do a really good job of portraying a mood that keeps you immersed in an otherwise shallow premise. I feel the voice actors, in particular, do a phenomenal job of making the world feel alive. Definitely interesting but only if you don't look too deep into it.
