The Bad Guys: Breaking In (2025-) is an animated television series in the Bad Guys franchise and it follows the title characters during their early days as criminals. This is a show that literally came out of nowhere for me, so I decided to binge the entire show and it was fantastic.
Positives for The Bad Guys: Breaking In (2025-): It was cool to see these characters during the early stages as criminals. I liked seeing them wanting to become known for something notorious when it comes to their crimes. The voice cast is really good here even if it isn't the cast from the movies. The animation style still looks amazing which is always the case when it comes to DreamWorks Animation. And finally, the show is binge to through as it is only 9 episodes with 25 minutes per episode.
Negatives for The Bad Guys: Breaking In (2025-): There is no reason for this show is exist aside from Sony Pictures wanting attention from the audience and trying to get people to be on their side. The show also answers questions I wasn't asking and giving me answers that I don't like at all.
Overall, The Bad Guys: Breaking In (2025-) is a great addition to the Bad Guys franchise and I am looking forward to seeing if we get a Season 2.

Sure, the animation is not the best but the story is truly so much better than I thought it would be.
Don't listen to the negative reviews, it truly was amazing. The characters, the storyline, music, EVERYTHING was amazing.
I am really hoping for a season 2 tbh. I truly recommend it to anyone who liked the movies and/or books.

From its opening heist sequence to the closing credits, The Bad Guys: Breaking In offers an effortlessly fun, stylish prequel that expands the world of the original film while standing confidently on its own. Set before the events of the 2022 feature, the series follows the titular crew-Mr. Wolf, Mr. Shark, Mr. Piranha, Mr. Snake and Ms. Tarantula-as they learn the ropes of criminal mischief and teamwork.
What works particularly well is the balance between slick heist tropes and heartfelt character moments. The animation is vibrant and expressive, retaining the playful aesthetic of the film but giving each character room to evolve. You see Wolf's ambition, Piranha's frustration, Shark's awkward optimism-all this in crisp, polished CGI-cartoon form. The writing smartly weaves jokes and chase sequences with genuine stakes: the crew isn't yet fully competent, which makes their failures as entertaining as their successes.
The show delivers a broad appeal-it's accessible for younger viewers, but layered enough to entertain older audiences. One memorable episode features the gang trying to rob a candy-factory while learning that even "bad guys" need a chore chart and responsibility.
On the flip side, some plot beats feel formulaic and the episodic structure occasionally limits long-term story arcs. If you're expecting a deep, dark crime drama, you won't find it here. But if you're in it for clever hijinks, witty dialogue and a team-of-misfits-learning-to-work-together story, it delivers.
In short: The Bad Guys: Breaking In is a delightful addition to the franchise. It expands its universe with charm and energy, giving fans of the film new context and newcomers a fun first step in. It may not reinvent the wheel, but it definitely makes the wheel spin with style. Highly recommended.

So, I saw the movies when they were originally in the movie theaters, But I heard they were getting a TV show, and I decided to give it a shot. I did not like how the animation looks. It looks poor quality for me. And I also did not like how the actors from the movie got replaced for the show. I still might watch the movies.
The Bad Guys: Breaking In is one of those rare animated series that sneaks up on you - you start it for fun and laughs, and before you know it, you're emotionally invested. It perfectly balances heart, humor, and chaos, making it enjoyable for kids and surprisingly meaningful for adults.
The comedy genuinely lands. The jokes are fast, clever, and character-driven rather than forced slapstick. Mr. Wolf's inner conflict, Snake's dry sarcasm, and Shark's innocent goofiness create moments that are laugh-out-loud funny while still feeling warm and sincere. The writing understands that comedy works best when you care about the characters - and here, you really do.
What truly elevates the series is its heartfelt emotional core. At its center, Breaking In is about redemption, friendship, and the struggle to change when the world keeps judging you by your past. Those moments of vulnerability hit hard - not in a melodramatic way, but in a quietly honest, relatable way. You root for these "bad guys" because their emotions feel real.
The animation is 7/10 - clean, stylish, and expressive, though not groundbreaking. While it doesn't always reach feature-film polish, it absolutely serves the story well, especially in facial expressions and comedic timing.
Overall, Bad Guys: Breaking In delivers way more than expected: genuine laughs, emotional depth, and characters you end up loving. It's proof that animated series don't need perfection to be powerful - they just need heart.
Final verdict: 10/10 Funny, emotional, and surprisingly soulful - a must-watch animated series that leaves you smiling and feeling something.
