TLDR

The Simpsons meets Spongebob in space.

What it's about

Craving an adventurous vacation, a boy tricks his family into taking a trip to outer space.

The take

If you’ve never watched the series prior to this, it still has a lot going for it. For one, its exposition is straightforward like a children’s play, telling you who the main cast is, and quickly treating you to musical numbers that are a welcome surprise every time they pop up. The main predicament is hilarious when it first hits, but I’m willing to die on the hill that they could’ve kept the bit going a little longer. Some segments do drag and make the whole thing feel like a long TV episode, and some plot setups can feel a bit hollow, but it’s a pretty relatable and trippy children's story, regardless.

What stands out

The supporting characters have pretty cute quirks. Most of them are on Earth, though.
