The heroes of the show are George and Harold, two fourth-graders who draw comic books (and make lots of jokes). They make their school principal into a superhero from their comic, &#8220;Captain Underpants.&#8221; He&#8217;s a dolt, though.<\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t read the books or seen the 2017 movie (also made by DreamWorks Animation), so I can&#8217;t speak for how authentic the show is to the original books. It appears to be, though, from what I&#8217;ve read. It&#8217;s got a lot of silly jokes that will make you laugh.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly enough, the book series has been seen as controversial by some parental groups because of toilet humor and because Harold is gay. For an animated TV show, it&#8217;s mild, thanks to much more offensive shows like &#8220;Family Guy,&#8221; &#8220;South Park&#8221; and many series on Cartoon Network.<\/p>\n<p>Your kids will love this, and you may, too, unless you have a very sophisticated sense of humor.<\/p>\n<p>MORE INFORMATION:<\/p>\n<p>V-Y7 1 Season<\/p>\n<p>Kids&#8217; TV for ages 5 to 7<\/p>\n<p>Best friends George and Harold \u2014 along with their classmates and tyrannical principal \u2014 are recruited for a mysterious mission in outer space.<\/p>\n<p>Proofread and Edited by <a href=\"https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/index.php\/2020\/06\/20\/biobrenda\/\">Brenda<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/index.php\/primetime\/reviews\/\">Back to the Main Reviews Page<\/a><\/p>\n<p><i>The opinions in these articles are those of the writer and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of TVMEG.COM or its other volunteers.<\/i><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- TVMEGBODY -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1056557952271337\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"8801203268\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5793\" src=\"https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/captain2.jpg\" alt=\"&quot;The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants&quot; on Netflix\" width=\"443\" height=\"249\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/captain2.jpg 622w, https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/captain2-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 443px) 100vw, 443px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TV Review! &#8220;The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants in Space&#8221; on Netflix Review by Suzanne 7\/25\/20 This is a cute and funny animated series based on a series of children&#8217;s books.
