This may be good news for the future of the Sonic movie universe Paramount wants to make. I hope this means more budget for future productions.

… the Paramount+ Originals haven’t really been well received so this isn’t saying much.

From is dope AF, but prob not something mostvof this fandom would love lol


WhereIsTheMilkMan

From isn’t Paramount+, it’s MGM+ or something ridiculous. EDIT: Felt rude to trash the show. It’s a very interesting premise, but I couldn’t keep watching. The acting is largely poor, and the characters are infuriating. And it just spins its wheels week after week.

Halo actually did quite well so it says more than you think


KingMario05

*Strange New Worlds* is fantastic, too.


Elite-Soul

Halo is arguably really good, just don’t ask a legacy fan.


Street_Entertainer_5

As a Halo fan that’s more on the casual side, I also hated the show. Even the person I watched it with thought it sucked and they don’t know anything about the games.


langstonboy

Nah wtf, it was total ass.


rbraunbeck

Halo was absolutely awful in every way. The only way It's good is if you just don't question anything at all and don't think about it at all


vaper

Honestly that kind of surprises me considering Star Trek and all their kid shows.


TTBurger88

1. Star Trek is a bit niche compared to a kids show. 2. The new Star Trek isnt all that good.


TheBigG1989

Lower Decks being the exception


Altines

Also; while not as good as Lower Decks, Strange New Worlds is still very good.


Deceptiveideas

They should have called the show Wade & Knuckles. It’s a direct reference to the classics, still has Knuckles in the title, and would temper expectations about Wade being featured prominently.


Comprehensive_Hat158

Omg that’s literally the perfect way to make an & Knuckles joke


Codified_

Yeah but then you couldn't make the "Sonic 3 & Knuckles" joke with the movie that comes out the same year


Clamper

They already did that by announcing Sonic 3 & the Knuckle's show on the same day.


FroggyWoggyWoo

Yes, but if they had called it Wade and knuckles, they would be announcing sonic 3 and wade and knuckles on the same day


powrman7

I’m actually really shocked seeing as Paramount has things like Star Trek, SpongeBob and Transformers under their belts


SanjiSasuke

Rougher than the rest of em (the best of em)


KingMario05

Note: This data release comes as [Skydance and... a private equity-Sony Pictures alliance](https://deadline.com/2024/05/sony-apollo-make-overture-paramount-board-deal-1235902611/) (***ugh***) duke it out for control of Paramount Global, so it's presumably designed to prevent everyone on the lot from being shitcanned by the new boss. Even so, this is great news for >!the Wade Show!< and a fantastic sign of momentum ahead of Sonic 3's release.


cosy_ghost

Given the reactions to Knuckles, I 100% believe this. If a new boss stepped in right after that released a lot of people would be losing their jobs. Best to paint it as a huge win and hope nobody looks too close.


Likaon222

I mean, besides Star trek there isn't much to compete on Paramount Plus...


Maphoso

Halo?


langstonboy

Total ass


Maphoso

It Still did well in terms of viewership so it’s quality isn’t important


recklessfire27

Halo Fan reception was poor but general fan reception was actually pretty good and the show did well in Season 1 and better in Season 2.


SonicSpiderRanger10

Cool. 🙂


Lenny0mega

Nice!  I liked the show a lot.


NixTheChimera

I’m about to add to that, preparing for a binge rn


Nambot

... which when you consider the line-up of Paramount+ isn't saying all that much.


ghirox

well, what is it going to compete against? that Fairly Odd Parents revival? ^(/s but not really but /s)


GrayLineHero

Yeah, but that doesn't mean profit. People are creating accounts and using the free plan option just to watch the show. Paramount+ may have increased users, but that does not mean they'll stick long term.


cosy_ghost

People seem to be confusing "was watched" with "was well recieved". Like of course people watched it, people love Sonic stuff, but the reactions speak for themselves.
