Elliott from earth is the second full series from Cartoon Network Studios Europe (now being rebraned as Hanna Barbera studios Europe) a foreign division of CN whose 1st animated series The amazing world of Gumball became such a big hit for the network I was excited when in 2018 they began production on another series called Elliott from Earth. Years later and it's finally here and I've been enjoying the series so far, the four part Wednesday is a neat introduction to who the 3 main characters are, Elliott & his mother Frankie have been moving around a lot since Frankie's theory of a mysterious rock she found is believed to be evidence of alien activity got her laughed out of field of science though she is determined to prove her theory right, Elliott is a good mannered boy whose feeling a little lonely since due to moving a lot he doesn't have the time to make lasting friendships. This all changed however when they activate the rock causing them to teleport through space on to the centrium, where they meet Mo a Dinosaur. What I like about Mo is when they meet him he really doesn't know much of anything and he asks questions about real basic stuff. This show can have such a soft gentle tone sometimes it's great. After making a home on the centrium the show goes into a more episodic approach exploring the cast of aliens and cool futuristic design of world around them. Some of my favorite episodes so far are: problematic prophecies: Nara is a interesting character who temporarily gave Elliott & Mo the power of future sight. Parallel Paradox: It's just really funny. And Melancholic Megalomaniac: LORD KALLOUS is such an interesting character, once a space tyrant now seeks redemption as a school teacher. Also the animation and colors of this show are amazing, nearly every episode has the characters with types of shading and lighting that you'd normally wouldn't see in other shows. Over all I'm looking forward to more of this series!
