Star vs. the Forces of Evil

I turned this show on simply to see what it was about. I expected nothing more than a half-decent animated series with naive jokes and a plot line taken straight from another story book tale. However, I found that this show held tons of hilarious jokes and scenarios (sometimes even innuendos) within a creative plot. I was surprised that, while maintaining most aspects of a PG show, it was extremely entertaining and kept my attention well (which is saying a lot if you knew me). Best animated TV show since Gravity Falls. Highly recommend...

Pros: Great animation, Creative story line, Hilarious scenarios. Cons: A bit too naive to entertain older crowds.

This show definitely deserves a chance. Watch the first episode and, if you're anything like me, you'll be hooked.

I only took up this cartoon recently, but now that I've seen it, I honestly think Star vs. the Forces of Evil is the most underrated cartoon Disney has ever released. It has an amazing cast of characters, a great balance between lighthearted and serious moments, and the longer the plot goes on, the better it gets. Since the show changed drastically over its lifespan, I feel it appropriate to review each season.

Season 1: 8/10-When I watched the first season, I was in love almost immediately. Technically, the plot isn't that present in this season, being more episodic than having episodes build on each other, but I was so enthralled by the lovable characters the show had to offer that I didn't even care. Even then, the plot they did have-both in isolated episodes and overall-was really good. If you're looking for a fun time, this season will provide it.

Season 2: 9/10-This is when the show starts transitioning towards plot focus. For the most part, it retains its episodic format, but the connections between episodes become stronger as it goes on. It also sets the stage for many of the events in the upcoming seasons, so this season is essential to anyone who wants to tackle the whole series.

Season 3: 9.5/10-This may be a controversial decision, but to me, this was the greatest season of the show. It was here that the plot was at its most powerful. Granted, there was a bit of a lull after the Battle of Mewni, but once the plot picks up momentum, it becomes one of the most captivating parts of this show. I'll admit that I didn't like a few of the things the characters did, but those can easily be accepted as mistakes. And even with those mistakes, I still enjoyed each and every one of them. Personally, I love this season, and I recommend it even more than I recommend the other seasons.

Season 4: 7.5/10-I'd be lying if I didn't say this was the weakest season. It wasn't necessarily bad: they just didn't do as much with it as they could have, and I wasn't a big fan of its finale. But what they did give us in this season was sill mostly well done-maybe a bit slow paced at times, but the payoff is generally worth it.

Overall, I really enjoyed this show. Was it perfect? No. Is it still worth watching? Absolutely.

Pros: Some great characters (Star, Marco, Eclipsa, Moon, Marco's karate teacher, etc.)

Some great moments and episodes

Pretty good animation (for the most part)

Some strong story and character elements

Cons: Some of the plot-choices are awkward and don't make sense

Plenty of filler episodes

Most of the humor and jokers aren't very funny

FRICKIN PONY HEAD

Conclusion: Not a bad show. Has lots of flaws, but the great characters, mostly very-good second season, and animation kept me watching till the end. Wouldn't really recommend it due to its numerous flaws and poor episodes.

After watching the first two episodes of Star vs The Forces of Evil, I can easily say I want more. I really like this show, and it is just what Disney Channel needs to help boost its animated Lineup. A mix of Gravity Falls, Steven Universe, and JUST A PINCH of Ren and Stimpy in there too, Star vs The Forces of Evil delivers beautiful animation, good characters, and a pretty straightforward plot that's easy to follow. Along with some really great jokes, and good humor all around, it is an insanely fun show to experience, and I recommend it to anyone who wants to add another fun Animated Show to their lists.

Also the theme song is definitely one of the Catchiest in awhile aside from Steven Universe's. I've been humming it for the past few days, not sure when I'll stop But in any case, I will continue to watch Star battle the Forces of Evil, and hopefully it continues to have a strong showing like it did in Episodes one and two. I know I will be along for the dimensional ride to see!

I love watching this show it's one of the best shows Disney has had I hope it continues
