So far, this has been a good show, but not a great one. I really like the characters and the ship, but most of the episodes have been somewhere between a B- and a B+ (with the exception of the terrible "Fighter Flight.")
I think the planet Lothal, where they inexplicably spend most of their time, is deadly dull and makes their universe feel tiny and boring. It's obvious the show is done on a budget, but, man do I wish they'd actually USE that spaceship of theirs to go hopping from planet to planet each episode.
Despite my misgivings, the last episode before the hiatus (shows to resume in early January) is called "Gathering Forces" and is available now on the XD website (it will air on Monday.)
It is outstanding! The best episode of the bunch by far. It's the second half of a two-partered that started with the solid "Empire Day" (which I'd rate highly, though a bit below "rise of the old masters.")
Hopefully, the show continues in this direction. If it maintains that level of quality, it'll be something to watch for sure.
