The idea of giving the seven dwarfs a TV show may sound like a bad idea, but that's not the case here as The 7D proves to be one of the best Disney shows. In any incarnation, the dwarfs all have distinguishable personalities, so they can play off each other pretty well. Look at episodes like "Grandpa Grumpy And The Ogre". It helps to have professional voice actors like Bill Farmer and Maurice LaMarche. The humor in this show is reminiscent of shows like Animaniacs and Tiny Toons.It helps to have many of the same writers of both shows write for this one, like Tom Ruegger and Sherri Stoner. Of course, it still has a nice Disney feel to it thanks to people like Tom Warburton, Noah Z. Jones, Leigh Allyn Baker, Kelly Osbourne, and more. I don't really have a problem with this show. It's a ton of fun and when the show teaches morals, it does it well.Grade: 10/10 (A+)

This show is a really funny take on the seven dwarfs that's updated for modern audiences. There are a lot of good jokes for parents that will go over the kiddos' heads. All the humor is clean however, so you don't need to worry any if the material with your kids. They'll have a blast too. As a Disney fan, I also enjoyed all of the in jokes throughout the show in regard to the old movies and theme parks. The kingdom of Jollywood is a great send up on Fantasyland within the Magic Kingdom and Disneyland, complete with a Skyway ride and cheesy songs to cheer up the villagers.

Coming off Tiny toons and Animaniacs, I had some decently high hopes for the 7D. While I know that the 7D isn't going to be as good (Mainly because it's aimed at a young audience on a Disney network) and that the writers probably don't have the freedom they did with Warner Bros, This is what comes of it. It's not laugh out loud hilarious, but it's still an entertaining half-hour, and there's still plenty of episodes for the writers to come up with.The 7D is a modern twist on the classic tale of the 7 Dwarfs, but there's been no mention of Snow white so far in the series. Anyways, the 7D are a group of dwarfs who live in the land of Jollywood under the rule of queen delightful. However, every so often, 2 bumbling sorcerers (Grim and Hildy) try and ruin the day for whatever reason, and the 7D are usually there to stop them.The best part of this show so far is it's voice acting crew. You have Maurice LaMarche as grumpy, Jess Harnell as Grim, and Kelly Osbourne as Hildy, who oddly enough, is very entertaining as a spoilt brat.Unfortunately, The writers and producers have fallen short so far in my opinion. There's the odd laugh, but it's not the kind of humour that people have come to expect from Tom Ruegger and his crew. So obviously the censors have gotten tighter than a snare drum since the early 90's in terms of what gets by them (Finger Prints, anyone?)Personally, I don't think we'll see anything that can raise the bar higher than what Animaniacs and Tiny toons did, But even if they came close and were even a little suggestive in their humor, i'd be happy.I give it a 6/10, but it's still too early to really say whether this show is worth watching. Give it a few more seasons.

The main gripe about The 7D that I keep seeing is that the dwarfs aren't the ones from the Walt Disney classic. Now, I have no idea how this show was advertised before it premiered and if it was touted as tying in to the movie, but I don't think it's supposed to. To me, it seems that the idea of the dwarfs was loosely inspired by the film and all other concepts are original.The plots of the show are simple and rather predictable. I can see how some would have a problem with that, but even hit shows like My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic have stories you can see the ending to from a mile away. It personally doesn't bother me because I find character interaction to be more vital than plot, but I can understand that not everyone shares this priority with me.What initially drew me in to the show was the cast and crew. Take a look at the credits and you'll see a lot of the folks behind Animaniacs and Tiny Toons are involved in The 7D. This show doesn't share the brand of humor the aforementioned ones do, but then again this show is supposedly intended for preschoolers. In that regard, it is very well written and doesn't treat its audience like idiots.The voice cast is outstanding and includes Billy West, Maurice LaMarche, Scott Menville, Jess Harnell, and other fantastic talents. They bring a lot of energy and character into their roles. The voices all fit the characters well. They don't sound anything like they did in the movie, but as I've said I don't think they're intended to be the exact same characters.One thing I haven't seen much mention of is the music in the show. In my opinion, it's one of the best parts. All the songs are catchy and can easily get stuck in your head. The background music is also very upbeat and fun to listen to.I don't understand all the hate this show seems to be getting. I really don't. I've seen every episode so far and I think it's pretty good. It's not perfect, but it's still cute and entertaining. Despite the negative reviews, I urge you to at least give the show a try. Just please judge the show for what it is and not what others may think it should have been.
