I mean, this franchise is home to some of the most iconic characters in gaming, yet this miniseries doesn't focus that much on him.

At this point I wouldn't even consider whether the show or not is bad on it's own merits. It's moreso the principle of the people who greenlight these shows fundamentally misunderstanding what fans of this property they're adapting actually want from it. They've been doing it for decades! The Transformers Movie; starring some human randos with special guest stars, the Transformers! Alvin and the Chimpunks; staring Jason fucking Lee and his career troubles. The Smurfs: What do you mean you don't care about Neil Patrick Harris' relationship issues? There's changing certain aspects of an existing property to better fit a different medium than it's origins and then there's using said media property to try and uplift your shitty sitcom script no one wanted to buy. That "Surf Dracula" tweet is evergreen; "back in the day if u did a tv show called surf dracula you'd see that fool surfing every week in new adventures but in the streaming era the entire 1st season gotta be a long ass flashback to how he got the surfboard until you finally get to see him surf for 5 min in the finale" I watched the Sonic movie to see SONIC. I watched Knuckles to see KNUCKLES. Why is this so hard to understand? But all those movies I listed still did gangbusters so maybe I'm just an idiot who doesn't know how the hollywood money machine works.

A show that does not treat you as if you were an idiot. Most new comers don't know anything about any of the shows, games, nor any of the additional medium.

I find wade endearing despite the shows flaws. The show could use more knuckles but its not like he is nowhere in the show at all. If anyone went in expecting a suprise chaotix reveal or like next to no humans I think you should temper your expectations. It advertised a buddy comedy between wade and knuckles and thats what it delivered. As a show in that regard I think its fine enough. Good news is that since this is a paramount show with a lower budget and next to no effect on characterization. It more than likely wont affect anything about sonic 3. I still say this show shouldve been 2d animated because then there wouldnt have to be as much focus on wade and knuckles would be less expensive to animate, allowing him more screentime.

How could the story of the series have been? Here's an idea: The Master Emerald is stolen and Knuckles embarks on a mission to recover it (it can be alone or accompanied by Tom), at some point it is revealed that the thief was Rouge who stole it for the Hard Boiled Heavies (here they would be human versions with advanced weapons that adapt their abilities from the games). It is revealed that Rouge is not bad as such, she was simply fulfilling a contract. After defeating the bad guys, recovering the Emerald (incidentally, Rouge would flirt a little with Knuckles) and returning home, it would be revealed to us that the bat works for GUN and already got the information they needed, preparing the ground for the third movie.

What I have personally learned about Sonic media is really just don't go in expecting the greatest thing ever. The old memories and enjoyment of enjoying the older media will never come back with the new stuff. Not even trying to be cynical or anything but I think its just kind of the truth. I mean I will admit I was hoping for a lot of stuff in the Knuckles show but also at the same time its the Sonic Movie universe, its for the casuals and not the fans.

Knuckles is the focus for the first three episodes, Wade rescues Knuckle in the second but they're only able to escape because of Knuckles and his abilities. Knuckles straight up saves Wade and his entire family from mercenaries in the third episode. I'd argue the last 3 episodes pivot to having Wade as a central focus. It's very much a buddy cop movie with both getting a great amount of focus. Even in the fourth episode which is Wade focused, when Wade is kidnapped there's an entire spiritual sequence in which he has to find his true warrior by reenacting Knuckles origins and essentially becoming Knuckles in this warrior forged play. So even in the episode without Knuckles...you're still getting Knuckles. Is Wade the narrative focus, yes, but it's not like they withheld these details. When the show got announced they said Wade was gonna be a protégé of Knuckles and a major focus from the get go.

If you ask me, they shouldve just made this into a 1 hour special if they're too cheap to have Knuckles as a main character

excusing the lack of knuckles in his own show because of the fact that CGI is expensive is so funny because the real solution is to not make the show. i would have rathered this not existed. i was looking forward to this because while i HATED the first paramount sonic movie, i was pleasantly surprised by the second. i still dont love the human characters honestly, theyre all unlikable to me, and i dont love sonic's characterization. if you want a sonic story with annoying human characters featuring his friends, just watch sonic x. pretty cool series

They sould have instead made a 1 hour long "special presentation" like Marvel did with Werewolf By Night

Or make fewer episodes so more focus and budget can go towards Knuckles.
