A triumph for fans of the classic! I have been a fan since I was Tommy's age, and this reboot is definitely a departure, but once you are open to a new continuity you'll find a excellent show.
I just plowed through the first season like a kid in a candy store. At 5 episodes thus far my biggest issue is I'm craving more. A welcome comeback that'll tie in new fans and satisfy old ones who can have a little fun.
People are going to be harsh because its new. However a lot of love is clearly going into this. The animation is detailed and bouncy. The writing is clever, modern and funny. This is above and beyond what kids shows do most of the time. I could not be happier.
UPDATE I've watched each episode released, and can say I still feel just as strong as I did before. This is one of the best kids shows on TV right now. I grew up with the original and see very few true changes that could upset fans. I'm a puritan about my media too, but this is truly a high effort show.
