The Knuckles series isn't bad, you guys are just mean.
Dont get me wrong, its a solid 6/10 but people treat it like its an affront to nature. For context, I had negative hype for it when it was announced and I think Idris Elba's knuckles is the weakest of the main cast, but this show got some genuine laughs out of me once I took the stick out of my ass and enjoyed it for what it is. A mildly funny comedy starring Wade and occasionally featuring Knuckles.
Wade Whipple is hilarious. Adam pally plays the role so earnestly, it's hard to hate. The jokes are VERY hit or miss, but even some of the worst jokes could get an ironic chuckle out of me. Wade asking his absentee father to explain sex to him— not because he doesn't know, but because he missed out on having that conversation growing up— is peak comedy. Argue with the wall.
Now the show does have some LOW lows like the unbelievably boring villains (not you Jack Sinclair, I love you), the lack of knuckles, and Wanda's entire character. But all in all, its clear that a lot of love went into the whole production; Episode 4 is pure joy from beginning to end— and Knuckles isn't even in the episode.
In conclusion, the Sonic movies should just be about humans doing dumb human things, but occasionally Sonic walks into the frame to look at the camera and say a one-liner.
