Barking through time and space, one adventure at a time!

“A DOG WITH BUNNY EARS!”

Surprisingly, this episode continues the story that was set up in the opening episode and is fairly focused on it. Not that it helps, since it does very little with the premise, with a lot of time devoted to pointless character interactions. At least we get some stuff with the Department and see how they collect alien races. And gasp! There's the surprise twist of one character we’ve barely met being the leader of the Department.

Part of the problem is that this series is way too focused on the terrible human character and barely relies on K9. And when it does, it makes up new abilities (such as flying) that the tin dog has never shown before.

The Jizen are still a dull and stupid alien villain race.

The kids remain hopeless and the professor dull. I really don’t like The Annoying Kid and find Bad Starkey annoying as well, which is a problem since they are so prevalent in these episodes. This undersells every joke and emotional moment that the writers are going for.

Why is the music so overly dramatic all the time?

The visuals are clunky, from the uninspired cinematography and editing to the very basic CGI. The action at the end is so shakily shot that it turns stupid rather than exciting.
