Reviews WesternAnimation / We Bare Bears

Surprisingly Beary Funny

When I first saw the promos for this show, my initial thought was "Cartoon Network has lost its fucking mind." But after watching the first 2 episodes, I'm starting to have second thoughts. It's surprisingly funny. The show is about the life and antics of three bears trying to fit in human society, with disastrously hilarious results. The show can best be described as a mix of Ed, Edd n Eddy and Regular Show with a little bit of Yogi Bear.

• Pros:
  • The humor of the show is quite good and contains no excessive gross-out gags, Black Comedy, or offensive jokes that hit the lowest common denominator.
  • The Bears themselves are incredibly endearing and their antics are will definitely have you laughing. Like I said, they remind me of the Eds in a way. Grizzly is a kinder and less obnoxious Eddy, Panda is the neroutic and dramatic Edd and Ice Bear... Well, I'd say he reminds me of Ed, but he's nowhere as dumb. Plus, he's become my favorite character as every thing he says and does is prime LOL material.

• Cons:
  • Grizzly's antics can come off as a bit annoying. Though he doesn't qualify as a Designated Hero as he does mean well, but is just a little too overenthusiastic and oblivious to how destructive his behavior can get.

Overall, the show is quite good and better than I expected. Definitely worth a look if your curious. And you better watch it, or "Ice Bear will hunt you down."
