It’s first season was fun and exciting with mesmerising characters, lots of geek street cred and an intriguing plot. A plot that pretty much wrapped itself up at the end of the debut season. Unfortunately, the same can’t …

If it wasn’t for voice actors who took their jobs seriously, your entire Saturday morning childhood would have been the kind of memory that you’d pay to have repressed.
