The Prince (2021)
7/10
Probably wouldn't watch it again.

Firstly I don't get why everyone is hating on this shows being all like "Think of the children", It's as if they are surprised a show about Prince George has children in it..... like what the heck did they expect. I bet these same people enjoy SouthPark which is centred around 9 year olds but heaven forbid a show exists about real life royal children (who to be fair are waited on and foot by hundreds of staff). Guess it's just evidence that there are still many many royalists who are easily upset over a simple satire cartoon about their 3rd in line monarch these days, it doesn't even show him in a bad light just more an over the top view of how pretty much every rich child is these days.

If you like Family Guy you'll enjoy this show as it is written by one of its writers and the animation is in a similar style. The show is not really something I would likely rewatch as I don't like the character of Prince George, I never have liked the whole pretentious Instagram social media influencer character on other shows so a show centring around one is definitely not for me. The show does have a few moments of comedy gold especially with Frances de la Tour being cast as the Queen hence my rating of 7/10. I do feel the over saturation of the same jokes might have been kind of a let down for the show, it does have potential to be a hit but it does need work.

I probably will watch the second series one time if it's still going ahead after all these horrible reviews, it was renewed but I'm not super hopeful for it.
