Season 1 Reviews
AV Club
Rowan Kaiser
That Napoleon Dynamite is not as terrible as I might have expected doesn't actually make it good, or funny.
Los Angeles Times
Mary McNamara
Napoleon Dynamite, like its feature film predecessor, is surprisingly family friendly.
Common Sense Media
Matt Springer
Whatever the case may be, there are some strong laughs to be found here; the animation seems to help bring this unusual little universe to life more effectively than live-action.
Slant Magazine
Michael Murray
The characters are ready made jokes unto themselves, and the plots unfolding around them seem like little more than scenes found on the film's cutting room floor.
Deseret News (Salt Lake City)
Aaron Shill
"Napoleon Dynamite" is funny, familiar and original.
Entertainment Weekly
Darren Franich
In Fox-Animation terms, they played out like a bad-idea Frankenstein mish-mash of King of the Hill's leisurely pacing and Family Guy's hyperkinetic plotting.
Newsday
Verne Gay
This cartoon is largely not funny because it is implausible.
Wall Street Journal
Nancy DeWolf Smith
If you loved the movie Napoleon Dynamite, the new animated version on Fox will seem like a dream come true.
Variety
Brian Lowry
The mixture isn't dynamite.
New York Post
Linda Stasi
As it turns out, the animated version of Napoleon Dynamite is almost as funny as a cartoon version as it was in the flesh.
Chicago Sun-Times
Lori Rackl
I've already established that I'm not a big fan of the film, for which my one-word review would be: meh. I'm even less a fan of the TV series.
AV Club
Emily St. James
Napoleon Dynamite isn't great, but it made me smile a number of times, chuckle a couple of times, and laugh out loud at least once.
New York Times
Mike Hale
Lacking the oddball singularity of the movie while not yet achieving the satirical bite that would make the TV show interesting.
HitFix
Alan Sepinwall
I didn't feel any need to watch later episodes.
San Francisco Chronicle
David Wiegand
The TV version may do well enough, but if so, it will be largely undeserved.
The Hollywood Reporter
Tim Goodman
The reaction to Fox's decision to animate Napoleon Dynamite, a cult movie made in 2004, is mostly this: "Why?" Or sometimes this: "Really?"
Miami Herald
Glenn Garvin
If you were reduced to hysterical laughter by the concept of herbal breast-enlargement cream in the film, you will likely be so again by the superpower-conveying acne medicine in the TV show.
New York Daily News
David Hinckley
Of course Napoleon Dynamite the animated TV series will be as good as Napoleon Dynamite the un-animated movie.
Washington Post
Hank Stuever
I still like the idea of Napoleon Dynamite, but he's best left where we found him.
PopMatters
Mildred Stockard
A delicious bass it ain't, at least not yet
