JURASSIC WORLD CHAOS THEORY

Netflix's Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous was an animated show that ran over two years (2020 - 2022) for fifty episodes that followed the adventures of six teens attending an adventure camp at the dinosaur themed amusement park on Isla Nublar become stranded on the island based upon the events of the live action Jurassic World movie. Dinosaur fanatic Darius Bowman along with other campers (Kenji, Brooklynn, Yaz, Ben, and Sammy) are forced to venture across the island without any help in the hopes of finding a way out alive as the creatures from Jurassic World's exhibits are now out on the loose. While Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous may seem to be a cartoon simply aimed for kids, my wife and I equally enjoyed viewing it making it a show our whole family loved to watch together. It absolutely earned a Geek Daddy nod of approval for being a family favorite show in our household. 

So, my family is GEEKED that Netflix is releasing a sequel series to Camp Cretaceous that has Darius, Ben, Kenji, Sammy and Yaz (now as adults) involved in new dinosaur-related exploits. Created by DreamWorks Animation and being broadcast exclusively on Netflix, JURASSIC WORLD: CHAOS THEORY debuts May 24, 2024. Set six years after the events at Camp Cretaceous, members of 'The Nublar Six' are struggling to find their footing off the island, navigating a world now filled with dinosaurs and people who want to hurt them. Reunited in the wake of a tragedy, the group comes together only to find themselves on the run and catapulted into a global adventure to unravel a conspiracy that threatens dinosaur and humankind alike and finally learn the truth about what happened to one of their own.

We will definitely be binging JURASSIC WORLD: CHAOS THEORY for a Friday family TV night on May 24. Are you excited about returning to Jurassic World through this new Netflix show?

FRUIT NINJA: FRENZY FORCE

My kids had a good time watching an advance showing of the first two episodes of YouTube Red's quirky new animated children's series FRUIT NINJA: FRENZY FORCE which debuts on Friday, May 5, 2017.  They giggled through an episode that featured the series' main characters, a bunch of heroic kid ninjas, combat humanoid monsters magically shaped from watermelons and a variety of other fruits.  They were quite  focused on the action in the wacky second episode where the fruit ninjas had to battle an alien that looked quite like a lightening bug who was trying to take over the Earth through distributing his own diabolical version of soda.  This show is a perfect fit for any child who enjoys goofy cartoons.

Based upon the popular Fruit Ninja gaming app that has achieved more than one billion mobile device downloads, the 13-episode series features fruit-themed characters that will be familiar to game players.  Available on YouTube and the YouTube Kids app exclusively for YouTube Red paid subscribers, the show introduces four young ninjas -- Seb, Niya, Peng, and Ralph -- who have been training to unlock the ancient secrets of Juice-Jitsu.  They unassumingly run a juice stand as a front for their secret ninja dojo.  When a time portal suddenly opens, transporting a 1,000 year old ninja named Durian Grey into the modern world, the four young ninjas must confront him and a cast of evil characters who have pledged to wipe the Fruit Ninja clan from the face of the Earth once and for all.

The series is produced by Halfbrick Studios, the original creator of the Fruit Ninja game, in partnership with Toonz Entertainment and Kickstart Productions.
