.
Get ready by binging Season One.
Then watch the Official Season Two Teaser Trailer HERE!
I been waiting on this - I like the silliness and the characters. I watched the dubbed TV version back in the day and a half dozen movies so I must be a fan. The star actor Chai Hansen is getting lots of action parts on TV lately - there must be odds on him getting into a Marvel/DC production.
Fantastic addition to the Monkey legend,well acted and has some real funny moments.After I binged the 2 seasons over the same no. of days I drew 2 note worthy points.One, this is not for kids but PG13 as it contains some unsettling themes,dark themes,not suitable for youngsters.Secondly,the fighting is exactly what you would expect more power rangers-esque than shaolin chasity monks in terms of violence so no worries there.Overall i was well entertained and cant complain,give it a shot 👍
I am super glad they brought this back! Yeah! Bad thing- the kid should have been about 10 years older. He’s not a bad actor, but his character is unbelievable, and it would have been better if they’d tried for a love triangle between Monkey, Trip, and the bounty hunter. I also find it repulsive that this is a family oriented show and it’s encouraging children to fight.
Good things- the crazy, silly characters are back! I love Monika. I like her sass.
I won’t say the ending, but if they don’t bring him back, all of the producers deserve to be roasted on a spit! Enjoy
