Our old pal Cameron Archer has been keeping up with the recent airings of the Teletoon Detour pilots commissioned a few years back. This past Sunday was Ninjamaica’s debut. Cameron watched it, and didn’t hate it. Here’s a bit of what he had to say:
Ninjamaica has, taken at face value, a stupid premise.
He’s an amnesiac ninja from Jamaica, and sings for a reggae band.
BUT…
Ninjamaica embraces its own ludicrousness.
Ninjamaica is a nice surprise for me. It doesn’t take itself seriously, and its negatives can be fixed over time.
If nothing else, Ninjamaica has one hell of a theme song. That alone makes it better than The Dating Guy.
His full review is here.
I didn’t like Ninjamaica. It was certainly at the top end of the mediocrity scale, but I wouldn’t go beyond that.
The tow best shows have already aired, Angora Napkin and Duncebucket, so I don’t know if I’ll be tuning in for any more.
Also, has anyone else noticed that the travesty that was Wireless Family doesn’t seem to be on the schedule?
I agree, this one was one of the better ones for sure.
What? no Wireless Family? So sad. To know what is good in a film, one must also know what is bad. I would consider that show to be the base to be able to judge all other shows by. At least with what is wrong with it.
Kind of like Plan 9 from Outer-space although I don’t want to put these two in the same category. Plan 9 is WAY better.
What? He’s not looking forward to Space Knights!?
Well, me neither…
HA!
