Felt like making a topic for this.
. From the ads I've seen, Fish Hooks looks like it could be a lot of fun. The cartoonishly photorealistic backgrounds are very unique, and the character animation looks really nice. But alot of people are putting this show down already, and since it's Disney it has a change of sucking.

Well, I thought Phineas and Ferb would suck. So, I'm staying cautiously optimistic about this one.

Speaking of which, according to this the creators of P&F like this show. Guess it must be somewhat decent.

Ooh, I kinda-sorta Internet know the voice of Oscar on this show! Hope it does well for him.

How exactly is this a Spongebob ripoff?

^ Because any show that's set underwater is obviously a rip-off of the other major cartoon that's set underwater. Which obviously means that Sponge Bob is a ripoff of Snorks.

In other words, it's Sponge Bob Square Pants meets Phineas And Ferb in HIGH SCHOOL! I honestly don't have high hopes for this, but some more cartoons on the Disney Channel would be nice. Hopefully not stuff like this. And if they were going to do a Spongebob knockoff, shouldn't they have done it when Spongebob was actually popular?

This makes no sense. This... well and truly makes no sense.

Well, since everyone seems to get along at Disney Studios, they can now properly arm wrestle in the break room for ultimate supremacy.

Well, given that it's made by the guy who did Chowder (CH Greenblatt) I think it would be safe to say (Even though I haven't seen it) that if you liked Chowder, you'd probably like this show.

I never thought you would like this show.

Saw eps one and two. Still pretty good.

Fish Hooks is awesome. It's really like a Sitcom that happens to be animated.

It's not bad. I don't love it, but it's not horrible.

I... Tried. I gave it a chance, I honestly did, and I freakin' hate it. As a previous Troper said, this is pretty much Spongebob IN HIGH SCHOOL!

I liked some of the ads, but the actual show was unimpressive. It also bugs me that the time slot they picked in the LA Disney channel ate 90% of the chances a week I had to watch P&F during my free time. Couldn't they replace one of their crappy Live action things with this rather than P&F ? Meh, indeed.

I'm amazed at the amount of dislike here. You have the creator of Chowder and creator of Billy & Mandy teaming up to do an adorable show about fish loaded with quirky, weird humor and lots of great voice actors.

It's far funnier than Phineas & Ferb, for the life of me I still can't understand where the latter's rabid following came from...it's not a bad show, but it seems completely ordinary in every aspect. It feels interchangeable with any other show about children having wacky adventures.

Personally I never liked Chowder either.

Yeah, I'll attribute this show's failings to Chowder's creator rather than Billy and Mandy's (Whom needs to pick better associates).

To be honest I am just tired of the high school setting, it got old 3 seconds after Saved By The Bell premiered.
