The supporting characters are all well-crafted and contribute significantly to the storyline. They add layers of humor and intrigue, enhancing the overall narrative. This series successfully embraces the buddy genre, taking it in unexpected directions. The mix of action, humor, and heartfelt moments makes it a well-rounded show.

Knuckles is fun for the whole family. Its clever humor and exciting adventures appeal to both children and adults. The show’s ability to maintain a lighthearted tone while still delivering meaningful messages about friendship and perseverance makes it a great viewing experience for family gatherings.

Overall, Knuckles is a delightful addition to the Sonic universe. The series combines strong performances, particularly from Adam Pally and Idris Elba, with a well-crafted storyline and engaging supporting characters. Its unexpected twists and heartwarming moments make it a standout buddy series that’s enjoyable for viewers of all ages.
