Description
Lately I've seen that the only cartoons that people can get behind are those that are incredibly heartfelt & mysterious (Gravity Falls) or came from someone that worked on Adventure Time (Steven Universe) and this is no exception. Everybody and their great-uncle hates this with a passion just because it's a comedy for kids and isn't SA3. Can't we just remember when we used to take joy in shows that were created to be incredibly absurd and make us laugh?Here are my reasons why this is good.
Pros
1. The animation is actually really decent
2. The humor is well-written
3. Knuckles, Sticks and Eggman are some of the most enjoyable characters
4. Amy finally stopped sounding like Minnie Mouse
5. Evil ham, that is all.
Cons
1. Sonic's running motion is a bit off
2. Some jokes can get a bit stale
3. Characters that originated from Rise of Lyric only appear for one episode and then BOOM (get it?), reduced to background cameos
4. The theme music is a bit unoriginal. Remember when we had "Fastest Thing Alive" and "Gotta Go Fast"? Nope, all we get is a tune that you can get off of Google Play. I mean c'mon Sega, the show is called Sonic Boom so why not use the song of the same name?
Anyway, I like this.
Sonic the Hedgehog belongs to Sega.
Base by
EDIT: By overhated, I mean it is hated by 90% of Sonic's Facebook commenters, Social Justice Warriors, etc. You can stop asking now.

This cartoon may be good and I Love it, but sadly the writers wasted so much good potentials.

Sonic Boom is really in-between. Some people like it, some people hate it. It's neither underrated nor overrated.

"Everybody and their great-uncle hates this with a passion just because it's a comedy for kids and isn't SA3.
I find this to be a bit of a strawman argument. I've seen that people who hate the show hate it for a variety of reasons. For some, the humor is just bad or annoying to them, the voice acting is bad or annoying, the graphics are bad or annoying to them, the designs are bad or annoying to them, or combinations of these (and more reasons I don't feel like listing here).Β
I can name many, many different shows with kiddy humor that people of all ages love. Sonic Boom just isn't one of them to a number of people
I also personally really don't like the "for kids" argument. Not only is it not a valid argument, but it's rather insulting to the movies and shows that were made for kids yet because there was actually a lot of creativity, effort, and talent put into it, it proved amusing for all ages.

I actually enjoy the show. I love how Sega pretty much make fun of themselves (and even poke fun at the fans) in some fourth wall jokes.

I don't understand why this show is negatively received. Heck, it's better than sonic x was imo.

I don't like Sonic Boom as much as the game canon (I prefer Sonic having a darker tone), but the rabid haters are really annoying.

Can I make a smaller version to use on my page? (I would use this version of the stamp but I really don't like using big stamps on my page because I don't want to display to much on it.)

I agree with both the cons and pros, here are my thoughts.
-Sticks is good, but I feel she could be better
-Humor's decent
-Story is simple as it should be, no more Demi-Gods.
-I'm not in the demographic and I've only seen a handful of episodes, I don't really care what they do

Makes sense because...
Sonic Boom Game: Terrible, poorly made, overrated.
Sonic Boom Show: Good, pretty funny as hell, overhated.

Yeah, it's not so bad. Probably not the best Sonic cartoon of all, but it beats Sonic Underground.
I just wish Mario would have a chance now and again.

I agree with ya. I'd also like Mario to get another chance in cartoons, as well.

Especially with all the possibilities to work with on the main series and spin-offs to use for some great material.

You got that right. I even started my own Mario series just as my own vision of what would happen if Mario had another shot in animation.

Anytime. I even finished up a story arc that was based on Super Mario RPG recently.
This series has something that the old cartoons once had: songs.

No no let me explain my point. By underrated, I mean Facebook users who still live in their great-grandparents' basements that hate it with a flaming passion because..........
A.) Green eyes
B.) It was made in France like Underground
C.) It's Robotnik, not Eggman
D.) Insert something else here.

Really? People don't hate Sonic Boom for being a badly written, unfunny comedy with flanderized characters who are satires of themselves and idiot plots? Huh...

I'm for the show, the comedy to me is hit or miss, but maybe thats because I'm not their age demographic.
The games however...
