WARNING: REVIEW INCOMING, hide the children!
I watched the 9 episodes that have aired of the show, and I thought it was pretty good, but it’s not something that I’d watch for the “story”. As far as I can tell, there may be some continuity, but all of the episodes have a self-contained plot, where the bears get caught up in some form of shenanigans.
The characters, Grizz, Panda, and Ice bear, are all fairly standard archetypes. Grizz is somewhat of the “main” character, and is kinda the straight man of the show; not much of a character in his own right, but he works by working off other characters. Panda is the antisocial nerd/weeaboo type, who is constantly worried about his popularity on his social networks, is engrossed in pop culture, and doesn’t like the outside world. Then there’s Ice bear, the silent “Ferb” (From Phineas and Ferb) type character, who doesn’t talk often, but when he does, he brings some pretty funny one-liners to the show. His gimmick being, that he only talks in the 3rd person, which is a funny gag, that could get old to some people.
“We Bare Bares” is supposed to be a comedy, but it isn’t the funniest animated show out there, that’d be Gravity Falls (imo). But, who knows? You may find it’s style of humour quite funny
. If you are interested in shows that have deep characters that actually develop over the course of the show, and great comedy, go watch Steven Universe or Gravity Falls. But, if you liked shows back in the early days of CN, like Ed, Edd, ‘n’ Eddy, which had no over-arching plot, but was still hilarious, you will probably enjoy “We Bare Bears”.
