TLDR

Why would an opening sequence that looks like that ever ask me to skip it?

What it's about

Two teens and a pug work together in a haunted amusement park to fend off spirits, harmful and otherwise.

The take

It jumps out at you, all the vibrant illustration styles that the show evokes: The Amazing World of Gumball, Gravity Falls, and others, in a vaguely vaporwave aesthetic. Its use of horror tropes and spirits is made friendly for kids—a cute pug being central to the plot and all—but there is enough here to say that it’s generally for older kids, 7 and up. Its portrayal and representation of LGBTQ+ struggles is done gently, and one of the best aspects of the larger narrative. An expectation of a haunted house fantasy adventure series for kids won’t betray curious audiences, but there’s more fun to be had than the title implies.

What stands out

Pugsley is like a We Bare Bears amalgamation when he starts talking.
