I must confess that I never gave Recess a proper chance back then.
Probably I was a bit biased, merely considering it a sanitized version of Hey Arnold...(Also the main cast often made me think of the Burger King Kids Club)
After the recent leak of the pitch bible for a supposedly cancelled sequel series, I finally decided to start watching the original cartoon, finding it to be pretty enjoyable.
Very fun and charming, the series has a rather wholesome 90s, making me feel pretty nostalgic for that era, when children were still innocent instead of being given cellphones since they are babies.
This episode was a pretty decen beginning for the show, setting the overall tone of the series, making me wish I had seen it when I was still a kid.
The negativity towards the supposed sequel series is more than justified in my opinion: It feels way too cynical to give such kind of mean-spirited continuation to a pleasant series like this, and frankly I hope it never gets greenlit.
Well, at least that inane garbage allowed me to discover a gem that I kept ignoring all these years.
Even when I discovered Recess way too late, I guess it's better late than never.
