I'm going to respectfully disagree with the previous reviewer. This is not the books, and it should not be judged on them. There are significant differences in the characters and setting. It's worth noting that author James Howe is involved with the production, and approved the changes.

The first couple of episodes of a new series are sometimes not the best, as the characters and situation are explored and refined. Still, I enjoyed them, and have liked each subsequent episode more. The most recent one, "Muddy Harry," is cleverly written and animated. The voice actors are awesomely fun.

Definitely worth watching!
