Running out of TV shows and movies to stream? The Purbalite is here to help, with another installment of our What to Binge Watch feature.
Hilda is an animated Netflix series that combines magical adventure with everyday problems. The show follows a girl from the forest who moves with her mother to the city. She and her friends have many magical adventures there.
The show has three seasons and each one deals with different magical creatures. There are many well known creatures, such as trolls, sea monsters and fairies. There are also creatures that are new and have unique characteristics. The use of these creatures adds to the overall tone of magic and whimsy.
Hilda is, overall, wholesome and easy to relax to. It features action, but it is not intense or graphic. The show’s colors and animation style also adds to the feeling of wholesomeness.
The way the show is structured is also done well. Each episode is its own adventure, but each one has something that connects it to the other episodes, and they all lead toward the finale. The seasons also get more complex. The characters have more and harder obstacles each season.
This series is aimed toward kids, but is still a good watch for adults. It is not like a typical kid show because it deals with a lot of nuanced topics, and it shares nature-focused ideals.
The characters in the show all are very likable. They all have different personalities that lend themselves to a good show dynamic.
Overall, this is a cozy watch for anyone of any age.
