Pac-Man and The Ghostly Adventures Review

Here's the thing.

Look at the character. Look at the toys. Look at the upcoming platform game this fall.

Now, look at the animated series.

It's designed for a 4 year old or an adult, still a kid at heart. Simply put, it's charming, cute, funny and adorable. Kinda like a 4 year old. It's mountains better than the "classic" (notice I put classic in quotes, cause it really isn't), Hanna-Barbera 80's cartoon which has always been painful. I know it's not saying much, but believe me, new Pac-Man cartoon is much better than old Pac-Man cartoon. It's heck of a lot better than  other animated TV shows out there.

I've been watching the series with my kid and we get a huge kick out of it. Yeah, I'm a Pac-Man fan but I was questionable about this cartoon when the first promos hit the internet. I'm happy to report, it works. It's goofy fun stuff, with some decent writing. Check it out for yourself via YouTube, thanks to an awesome user who's devoted time for your pleasure. Watch it while you can until it's yanked by the Mouse House. Personally, I find it to be easy publicity for Disney and hopefully they're chill about it. ;)

Enjoy!
