Monster High season 1 Review

As part of the Monster High generation 3 launch, Mattel worked with Nickelodeon to make both a live action movie and an animated series.  This review is for the g3 Nickelodeon cartoon season 1 that started in 2022, not the web-series that started in 2010.  This cartoon aired on the cable channel Nickelodeon, but can also be bought and streamed on Amazon Prime.

I 100% love this interpretation of Monster High.  It's monstrous, colorful, punny, sweet, all good things.  I really love the 3D models for the characters, because nobody looks like a Pixar/Disney princess.  The live action movie had a very small cast, but the cartoon has been able to expand on that and add more beloved characters.

The stories are 11 minutes long, and there's 2 per episode.  There's a few 2 part stories, which take up the whole episode.  A few episodes have songs, but it's not really a musical like the movie.  Still very good, loved it all, will rewatch, my new comfort show.
