This show is just adorable in many ways, for sure it's one of the best things to let your kids watch Also I think the plot may be an allegory of parents kicking out a kid from home because of their sexuality. It makes the show even more important for queer youth, it sends a message that they never gonna be alone

Very interesting premise, done in a very bland and uncreative way. Every episode features tired story beats and high school cliché plots that have been done a million times, before. Doesn't even come close to Gravity Falls.

>"I grew up thinking everything was an opportunity to justify existing, but there are people out there who won’t make you feel worthless. You just have to let yourself meet them.” I've been watching animated content for over a decade now, and I have got to say in all honesty that no show has had its hooks in me like this one (except maybe _Infinity Train_, although that story went unfinished). _The Owl House_ isn't perfect; most of its flaws being blamed on its production troubles. But that's not to say the impact of this show is incredibly significant, personally and for the medium as a whole. When _Amphibia_ had concluded its story last year, premiering shortly before _The Owl House_ had, it was clear that the two were perfect contrasts to each other. While _Amphibia_ was a fantastical comedy with dark undertones, _The Owl House_ was continuously a dark drama with slivers of teenage comedy throughout. This show is much more heavy in its tone and nature, some of which have honestly never been seen in a Disney television original. _The Owl House_ shines in its balance with telling a suspenseful tale alongside various pieces of serious commentary. For kids and teenagers, it's simply an isekai-inspired story about a girl who wanders into a fantasy world filled with creatures of fun design and magic of cryptic nature. But underneath, it's a story about self-identity, finding your purpose when no one else sees your potential, loss of family and friends, and even guilt. The lessons are fit perfectly, the romance is relatable and natural, and no theme that is typically "shoehorned" into other media is felt that way here. This show also manages to keep the depression to a low when it can, with several moments of fun jokes and jabs to go around. And alongside all that, gorgeous background and character art, action-packed moments of animation, and a damn good soundtrack. The pacing of everything here though is both the show's strength and weakness. While _The Owl House_'s short length (similar to _Gravity Falls_) helps it be much more binge-worthy and less filler-heavy, it hurts the plot by rushing certain pieces of character building and forgetting about holes to be filled by its conclusion. Obviously this is more to blame on the executive decisions to cut the show shorter than anticipated, as the writers did do a great job working around most of these holes using time skips and the like. _The Owl House_ may not be a perfect show, but it is one hell of a send-off for serialized animated content on Disney Channel, and an important one that manages to push certain themes further than any I've seen in all of my years of watching cartoons, especially from Disney. I'm really glad that a story like this exists for kids and teens, one that teaches the complexity of humans and to embrace being a "weirdo". And with its short runtime and episodes that keep you wanting more, it is absolutely worth the watch. If you're looking for one of the best animated shows to watch this generation, _The Owl House_ is it. 9.75/10

The culmination of what Disney shows had been building to with serialization, characterization, and representation. What it achieved with the executive politics against it is astonishing. It could twist the heart as much as warm it, bust the gut, and be astonishingly creative and eye catching in both setting and visuals. Belos is a perfect villain, serving the thematic thrust of the series and the character development of the leads flawlessly. And you can’t ask for a more endearing and rootable protagonist than Luz, who gets you on her side immediately and makes you feel her highs and lows. King and Eda carry their side of things just as well, highlighting the found family and the joy of being a weirdo. And all the secondary cast round things out nicely with quirks that immediately make them lovable and memorable. Of course, the brightest part of Owl House’s legacy may be Luz’s relationship with Amity, and for good reason. They feed each other’s growth, and their love is sweet and heartwarming and never shied away from. It’s natural and organic, and so inspiring for the kids who need to see their love is right and good. Owl House made a whole generation of weirdos feel seen and loved, and will do the same for future generations. It’ll stand as a landmark in children animation, and I can’t wait to see what it inspires the people who grew up on it to create themselves.

This series is perfect, I would have loved it if they hadn't canceled it.
