Blistering performances.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

I saw this when I was a kid and it was pretty neat. I revisited it and it is just as good as I remember it, if not better. The main animation is grandiose with a style that really makes it stand out, and the addition of other animators coming in for the music videos is just Willy Wonka levels of eye candy. I like that its main characters are of varying races. Plus, I like to think that Sunny's somewhere in the list most powerful characters in fiction given what he's capable of. It's a shame this show went out so early. I guess a lawsuit doesn't look good on your resumé. Oh, and to the guy to said this is worse than Cow and Chicken, I must know if you're trolling. I not, then I have several questions.

I, my wife and my children LOVE this series! It's a throwback to the Jackson 5ive series of old...corny jokes and visual puns great music, and a lot of fun. The series has a particular look--abstract, vibrant, very jazzy--it may not be for your average cartoon fan. It's got an arsty feel.I love the musicality of the tracks--definitely more than cheesy kids songs but not ridiculous pop drivel. We've bought the soundtrack and the kids will go bananas when they hear it--lots of energy! I'd say the older kids may not dig it as much, but for my younger kids ( 2 5 and 8) and grown ups who are familiar with Andre's music...it's good stuff.

To the previous commenter, it's called "Class of 3000" because the VA for Sunny is Andre Benjamin, AKA ANDRE 3000. Sunny's sort of like the leader of the kids, so that makes sense. But I must agree. This cartoon's absolutely terrible. I'm really sick of musician cartoons and cartoons about school. The plots are very uninteresting and there's no sense of any... point of it all. Why didn't cartoon companies learn to stop making cartoons about musicians after the Beatles? But no, they had to make this just like they made Hi Hi Puffy Ami Yumi and Hammerman. They just continue to spawn and I think it's unfair to the viewers.What makes it worse is that people actually enjoy this show. The songs are horrible the humor is idiotic, and every single character is uninteresting and bland. Hopefully Cartoon Network comes to their senses and pulls it from the air. They've produced enough stupid shows.

In his interviews Mr. "3000" suggests he wants the cartoon's so-called "music" to be listenable outside of the episodes. That he wants a "mish-mash of kids" to show all types.What he has instead is boring, repetitive - things - that doesn't even begin to qualify as real music. Nails on a chalkboard has more musical quality then what passed for "music" on this tired cartoon.As for the kids, they're such heavy stereotypes - from the over-talkative white blond girl to the overweight and tough black girl - that one could see them as verging on racist.One can only hope this cartoon is swiftly put to sleep.
