    For me, the only real offender in that regard was episode 4. Every other episode gave Knuckles a fair amount of screen time to me. Still, while I give the movies solid As, I'd give the show about a C+. It wasn't horrible, it wasn't fantastic, it was just okay.

I agree that they're not necessary, Beast Wars proved that a long time ago, but they don't always hold the story back. I leave that in the execution department.

The 7 Chaos Emerald and the Master Emerald exist so, maybe Knuckles’ tribe accidentally summoned the destroyer god when trying to unlock the secrets of their power?

    Yup, you nailed it!

Wade pops out to have his empowering speech about how Knuckles is his friend and Earth is Knuckles' new home, *literally* 1:1 identical to Tom's speech about Sonic in movie 1, and what happens??? The power of Wade's speech reawakens Knuckles with his electric red energy, and he defeats the big bad guy. The end.

    I think I know why Paramount chose to not reveal that Wade was the main focus in a show called “Knuckles”; Shows like Kramer and Planet Sheen have proven that spin-offs starring the comic-relief don’t do so well, and that it was possible for this show to get a low attendance because of it. As for me, I thought it sounded neat. Maybe Rouge would’ve been a good inclusion, since she’s gone undercover before, but maybe they’re saving that for the 3rd movie. Fang the Hunter could’ve been a better inclusion, since he is a bounty hunter, and Wade had a bounty on him. I honestly thought The Buyer was gonna turn out to be Snively, from Sonic Satam/Archie, but have him be Robotnik’s brother rather than his son. If they do decide to do another spin-off, a Tails one would be nice. Maybe the box-office numbers from the 3rd movie might give them enough of a budget to make it possible.

    I mean if they *had* to go this route with Wade/Knuckles, I would have Wade's Father be renowned boxer instead of a bowler. The story can progress the same but with Knuckles teaching Wade about proper punching techniques as Wade trains and fights his way up the ranks. This explains why he's matched up with Knuckles and how Wade can actually prove himself capable in a fight with those GUN goons which can give opportunities to be genuinely useful in the group. And boxing lends itself WAY better to an underdog story than bowling of all things.

    I thought this series was gonna be.. Knuckles having to learn to chill and relax with Wade as "HIS MENTOR" While Wade is a "joke" , he does stay down to earth and helps others. He is basically a sidekick to "Donut lord" This is the series I thought we would get. Wade teaching Knuckles to relax and work in a team even if Sonic seems to lead it. Knuckles showing Wade he is more then just a Deputy, he's a warrior too. And the two finding respect since they are both... "DUMB KNUCKLEHEADS!" Like Wade being abit of a joke would fit perfectly with Knuckles being simple minded too in the games. IT WAS RIGHT THERE! In my what if here... the bad guys would come for knuckles when Wade suggests to go on a vacation. Away from training and to relax, clear his mind. And you can have Christopher lloyd's charater tell Knuckles that he needed to learn to take a rest. Have some stupid shit going on where the the bad guys arent just after Knuckles his power but the master emerald itself (Cause he has it!) Have Wade be more a detective where the bad guys are, have knuckles cause problems. Have knuckles and wade be tricked by the bad guys once since they work for GUN and give the Master Emerald to the bad guys to store it away but OOPS these guys are as bad as robotnik. Have the final battle take place on a remote island base of "The Buyer" (Cause you know evil scientists love their island fortresses.) Make a spinball reference, have knuckles use the fists. Win the day. Blow up the base (cause every base needs a self destruct button) Then Knuckles thinks he should hide the emerald on some remote island no one can reach to hint at Angel island.. THE END! (After credits scene have Knuckles arrive on a jungle island, where he thinks he can store the emerald but insted finding a hidden cell complex. Aka prison island) Anyway.. this show wasn't terrible, but it just didn't know what to do.

    I think what saved this show for me, despite its shortcomings, was the impact that Knuckles has on Wade. The guy starts off as a buffoon at the beginning but became confident on where his true strength comes from by the end. Knuckles has always been my favorite Sonic character due to a mix of his social awkwardness (without being an edge lord) while remaining fiercely loyal to his values and those he cares about. Knuckles himself may not be there a whole lot but his ideals are certainly emulated through Wade. In a sense, I find it relatable.

    In regards to the end slate, I think this whole Year of Shadow thing is due in large part to the third Sonic movie. With how insanely successful the movieverse is and the very clear hype for Shadow, plus his waning relevance in the series as a whole since Colors, I think they just want to use the obvious hype around their arguably most popular charactet who isn't Sonic as an opportunity for some good ol' fashion marketing.

    Frankly, I don't care about this "year of this and that." Or even as far as the anniversary thing. They lost their meaning after sega said "year of Sonic" like a dozen times (2014 came in mind. Eh, memory is wack). Yeah, call me "killjoy" or whatever, but I don't care. Shadow is one of my favorite characters, but lately Sonic Team did him kinda dirty. He's just some "vegeta wannabe" (what else to describe him) and not his usual self. The tails tube holiday episode ticked me off so much cuz of how he's represented. I'm not expecting him to be really nice, but at least be grateful. Plus, I rolled my eyes when generations remaster has announced, this time with Shadow tacked on? My mind went, "Oh they're just cashing in with the movie. Cashgrab blokes, and more same old nostalgia trips." Even though, it's not the movie's fault or whatever. And now they expect me to care for Shadow now cuz "hurdur year?" Probably should've cash in on him at 2021. You know, 20th anniversary of SA2 & all that jazz. Give him a new game, or hell, remaster shadow the hedgehog cuz why not. I'm still excited for the movie, though. I won't expect much, but I'll enjoy the ride nonetheless.

    I mean a major plot point in the first movie was that Eggman confirmed Sonic's existence because of the quill Tom picked up, and he used it to not only power his machines, but to also escape from the mushroom planet. If the Buyer worked with Eggman, then it would make sense that they would use similar methods. Knuckles did fight a lot in Green Hill, so it isn't entirely improbable that there aren't any quills he must have dropped unintentionally.

Even more so when the rock opera started going into how Knuckles acquired them. I guess that was enough of a scare to improve the rest of the show in comparison (my god, I would absolutely hate it if by episode 5 or 6, Knuckles started crying and the villain of the show became the huge fire monster). As for the actual villain of the show, I've spent most of my time thinking "wait, did they just shadow drop Snively into this universe? If so, why the fuck is he old and beefy!?"

I’m not going to pretend like I enjoy Wade more than Donut Lord, he’s a supporting cast member forced into the spotlight and if we’re going to do another of these spin-offs, can we get someone else? I feel like I’ve had enough Wade. A Rouge and Wades Mom show, lol. Great review Johnny!
