Chowder

This show, is one of the aces of the toons, but CN cancelled it for some reason. All of it was great, the references from video games, some memes, and randomness. I can't believe the canceled it.

CHOWDER!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where'd you go?!?! :(

Sadly, another new show, has failed for Cartoon Network. Chowder is original, but lacks a good story line and characters you care about. Voices and everything is original, but already seems used. Animation is not the greatest and sort of on the cheap side in some aspects (Using layers that move when character moves.) and the depth of the show....well, there is none. Right now I'd say the show won't last, though CN will say it's a hit for another season. The best way to compare it is to Class of 3000, a jumbled mess of animation that won't go anywhere. Give it a try, it's still a new show though. They need to fix it up badly.

I found this show to be an amazing one that used many comical tactics. I also loved how they mixed animals, and put weird monsters that don't exist in our world in there. Snitzel is my favorite character and he doesn't talk english, the guy is still hilarious. If you love comedy, cats, food, and cartoons, then this is your show.

To all Chowder fans, sorry to disappoint you but I completely dislike this show! Why? Well the animation, ugh it gets me angry while watching it! It's not awful, i'll just say it's alright animation. The characters are bland. Just terrible. The jokes are bad. I haven't laughed more than 5 times while watching this show. Really. There are just a little tiny parts that gave me a laugh. Although I give this a 5.5/10. It's just not as great as any other CN cartoon like "The Amazing World of Gumball", "Adventure Time", "Regular Show", 'Ed, Edd, n' Eddy", and more. As I say again I'm sorry to all Chowder fans. I just don't like this show. Good thing the animation is alright because if it wasn't I'd give it a even worse rating.

Before you thumb this review down, let me explain my reasons.



I will admit that the art style is very good. There's a lot of creativity, such as the moving patterns in the character's clothes. Very cool. The character designs are pretty unique too. The voice acting is good as well, especially Mung Daal's.



But the thing that really brings this show down for me is the humor. At first, I really enjoyed this show during the first couple of episodes. They were very funny, and the plots were executed well. But the more the show progressed, the more it lost it's charm. The humor started becoming boring and stale.(I'm not your boyfriend.... Overused so many times, as well as the constant 4th wall breakage). Plots started becoming more predictable. Characters were becoming boring to watch. At some point I just stopped watching altogether. It overstayed it's welcome in my opinion. However, I did watch the final episode and I enjoyed it, because it reminded me of older episodes.



I wish the show didn't go down the line it did. It had a lot of potential, but it didn't fulfill it for me. Obviously, I don't hate it, but it just wasn't for me. Final Grade: C-

I used to love watching this show back when I was 14. Now that I'm 15 and nearly 16, I don't love it anymore. Here's my story and opinion on the show.



I first heard about this show in early 2008 on youtube. It looked really stupid to me. I thought Chowder would have some original cartoonish voice. Then in late 2008, I decided to give the show a chance so I looked up about it on wikipedia and its episodes and thought it sounded good so I saw some episodes and youtube poops of it on the internet and then I became slightly obsessed with Chowder and loved Chowder's kid-like voice. It was hilarious, I'd laugh at it and the characters were really good. I even got to watch it early in the mornings on Saturdays through early 2009 and I'd still laugh at it. Then, my brother started making fun of me because I was watching this show so to stop him, I stopped watching the show. Yeah, I know, you'll all be like "dude, don't listen to him! It's your opinion!" but to be honest, I actually find this show pretty stupid now. The characters seem pretty annoying and I'd have to change the channel whenever it came on. And I hated having to wake up so early in the morning to watch Chowder. I was getting older and trying to sleep in which I do now. So yeah, I just stopped liking the show.



Now, I don't totally hate this show, I'm just saying I don't like it like I used too when I was much younger. I reccomend this show for nine year olds.



So, that's my review.

Imagine a kitchen where white tofu-like squares magically turn into fruits (or monsters) with just the well-timed whack of a club, apples with arms and legs (known as "grapples") grab onto your face, and your own food challenges you to a wrestling match! Welcome to the world of "Chowder", where every new dish is a recipie for laughs!

Chowder is a young cat-like boy who lives in the mystical and exotic Marzipan City. He is the apprentice of the great chef Mung Daal, and one day hopes to be a great chef as well. However, the kitchen of the Mung Daal Catering Company ("You book it, we cook it!") is no ordinary kitchen. In this kitchen, food can take on a mind of its own, ingeredients are added on a flying trapeeze, and any recipe can lead to chaos, craziness, and wacky adventures!

I really enjoyed watching this show. It's the best show Cartoon Network has had in a long time. It brought me right back to the days of "Whatever Happened to Robot Jones" and "Sheep in the Big City". With its silly slapstick humor, fun and funky background music, colorful Eastern-architecture inspired backgrounds, and its hilarious cast of characters, "Chowder" is a very fun show that I'm sure everyone will enjoy!



"You don't know what you're missin'..."

"If you aren't in the kitchen!"

In the fantasy town of Marzipan, a very succesful kitchen is run by Mung Daal. But Mung is also a teacher.A young child by the name of Chowder is the well-known chef's apprentice. Chowder believes that one day, he will be a widely respected chef like the one he is working with. However, Chowder has a problem. He cannot stop gorging himself on the culinary delights by which he finds himself surrounded.And when you mix in a rock monster named Shnitzel and a bad-tempered wife, Truffles, then there`s nothing less than absolute chaos to be found in Marzipan.

I think Chowder was a super show. While it still not the best CN show during 2005-2010, I really enjoyed the humor. The characters were mainly funny and perfect. The funniest characters were Chowder (because his obession with foods), Mung Daal, Gazpacho, and probably a few others. Season 1 was the best. Seasons 2 and 3 were not as good as season 1, but I still enjoyed it. One thing that upsets me that Cartoon Network is not airing this cartoon anymore. I miss Chowder so much. I wanna see this show again. I hasn't watched the show since last year (when the show ended). I hope CN reruns this show again. I really miss it. Overall, while the show had a couple flaws, I think it was superb. 9/10

First (before I go on with my review), I wanted to point out that C.H. Greenblatt (who used to work for my all-time favorite cartoon "SpongeBob SquarePants") is the creator of "Chowder" and I thought that he did a well done job making this cartoon. I wish Cartoon Network didn't end a hilarious cartoon called "Chowder". Chowder who is a purple bunny that wears a hat pretty much all the time is a cute and very funny character... kind of weird BUT in a hilarious way. I think that Mung Daal is also a good character and he is a pretty funny and enjoyable character as well. I also love Snitzel especially when he would always say "Rada rada" which is probably the only thing he would say. My least favorite character in this show though is probably Truffles because she just seems to be grumpy character and can't be happy all the time... we hardly see her happy in this show. I also don't like Panini because she annoys me when she wants to be Chowder's girlfriend but it's always funny when Chowder says "I'm not your boyfriend". I also don't like Miss Endive. Gazpacho is one of the funniest characters in this show and happens to be my favorite character. I didn't take away some points because of some of the characters I don't like... I took away some points because this cartoon can have weird images that aren't appropriate for kids to see. Overall, this is a hilarious cartoon and I would definitely recommend it because it has all kinds of wacky humor. 9.5/10

how can i put this show in 3 words hmm only one way to do that worst show ever i mean i cant even explain this show this and im not afriaid to say it is cartoon network;s worst show since couarge the cowardly dog this show also has the stupidest plot in tv show history it;s about like this kid who wants to become a famous chef and you know i figured by that plot this would be a pretty good show but boy was i wrong this show is terrible sorry fans of chowder but this isnt my type of show grade 1/10 kingnicky1 out

CN had one of its bright moments with the show, Chowder. It was about a young bear rabbit creature named Chowder who was a chef's apprentice to Mung Dall. Throughout the series, Chowder had wonderful and random humor that anyone and any age could enjoy. The animation was really great, it had nice set designs, it was colorful, but no too colorful, and the character designs were unique. I also love how in Chowder, they have such unique food and how it looks, there was a lot of great effort put into this show. But why did it have to end so soon? Seriously, it could have gone on for 3 to 4 more years. I personally blame Stuart Snyder and those new CN Real shows like Tower Prep and Unnatural History, thanks CN you certainly know how to run a great network (sarcasm). Good-bye Chowder, you will not be forgotten with your great humor that we still laugh at and you will be missed by many.

Chowder is an American animated television series that debuted on Cartoon Network on November 2, 2007. The show was created by C. H. Greenblatt, a former storyboard artist on SpongeBob SquarePants and The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy. The title character is a young child named Chowder, an apprentice to a chef named Mung Daal, who owns a catering company serving the fictional Marzipan City. The show combines traditional animation with stop motion animation and puppetry. Chowder is fat and loves to eat too. Endive is the biggest meanest character next to Truffles on the show. Am I right? Of course I am!

I never got the humour in this show, at times it has a few moments of laughter, and that's overall. Most of what I witness is just an annoying, overweight, food-obsessed child who makes too many overused fat jokes.



What I witness when watching this is just jokes about food, senseless idoitcy, and something that would seem too childish for anyone whom is eight years of age or older. Although I have to get it credit, I personally loved one of it's 15 minute episodes, and that was the "Froggy Apple Crumple Tumpkin" episode. This show was just a realization that either I am growing up, Cartoon Network lost it's touch, or both. It's just something I don't think I will ever bother watching again.

There are so many great shows on CN that have been canceled and need to return. Ed,Edd and Eddy,Dexter's Lab and Hi Hi Puffy Ami Yumi are examples. But the biggest example,is Chowder. This show is about a rabbit-hamster-cat thingy named Chowder,who is a young chef that is a helper to Mung Daal,a famous chef. It may sound stupid,but it ends up being great. First off,all of the characters are hilrailous,and are named after a food. Chowder is the main character,and what's hilrailous is the fact that he nearly screws every recipe he makes up. Mung is also a great character. I can't stand him at times because he is a jerk to Chowder at times,but has his moments. Truffles is Mung's life,and is really a cranky and funny old mushroom lady who always results in yelling. Schnitzel is a strong rock guy who only says "Rada Rada" and is funny at times. Panini was always my favortie. She is a hot bunny who has a crush on Chowder,and never leaves him alone,but at the end,they get married. Not to mention Chowder's hilrailous catchphrase from Panini "I'm not your boyfriend!". I also like Gorganzola,who is the jerk of the show that is a mouse and a candle. Gazpacho is also a hilrailous who hilrailously fails at being a comedian. Endive,however, is the only bad character of the show. She always wants Panini to harm Chowder,is disgusting,and has a giant and gross booty. (And even likes grease!) I also love how everyone's shirt pattern moves when the characters move. It's completely random and hilraious. The humor is mostly about fart jokes,but the rest is that "Oh,I wasn't expecting that to happen" jokes. And most of it relies on breaking the 4th wall,and it ends up in comedy. Overall,this was a great cartoon that needs to be brought back. Please cancel Problem Solverz and return Chowder.

This show was funny and really random which is probably really liked it. There were some episodes I didnt really like but the show was still very good and I think they couldve gone a little longer with this show. The show is very weird in a good way. And of course Shnitzel is probably my favorite character since he only says rada, I dont know why but I always love cartoon characters like that. I dont understand how this show stopped and it didnt really last that long at least it didnt seem to last that long while stupid shows like johnny test are lasting longer than it. Chowder was a very awesome show

Chowder is a pretty funny show. It'll make you laugh a couple times each episode by having strange and absurd gags. The show is about half rabbit half cat half bear thing named Chowder who dreams of being a chef someday. He is the apprentice of a very old chef named Mung Daal. Chowder constantly gets into wacky adventures invovling his friends and enemies. There is a lot of characters on the show, all very clever and unique. Chowder is the fat kid who wants to be a chef. Mung Daal is the old chef who owns Mung Daal's Catering in Marzipan City. Shnitzel is a rock monster who says rada rada. Truffles is Mung's wife. I could go on and on about the characters but i'm all out of time. Watch this show on Cartoon Network for a good laugh.

If you watch this show you are maybe bored at home and have nothing to watch besides this thing.my brother watches this show and i tell him why?! He says it is funny and i think it is just plain stupid (not in good way).he says that it's awesome and i disagree and i think that these people can't think of anything esle just this do better! You may disagree but the important thing is you toke the time to read what i have to say about this horribpe show. Never watch this show before we didn't learn new things like this and that is a fact Thank you Good night

This show is gutter trash.. needs to be taken off the air and replaced with something better. It is unoriginal disusting filthy and it is for the not so educated I tried watching it but it made me wanna puke there are others with me that agree it stinks plan and simple todays episode was not accepted by me. having suger spit in a bowl is very gross and I hope cartoon network (The network must be held accountable for this gutter trash..) cancels it and burys it like other shows like it. anyway this is my review i hope not to make one like this again.

Let's just make it simple and say CN has really gone desperate. As much as I hate to say it. Whatever happened to good shows like Ed Edd and Eddy, Powerpuff girls, you know where I'm getting. All this show is about some purple thing wanting to learn how to cook. That's it. I just told you the whole show in one sentence. For some reason, every writer has seemed to run out of ideas. Plus, this show is trying WAY too hard to be funny. It may be funny for kids, but really immature kids. I just hope this show doesn't become known as a "classic".

Chowder is a show about this rabbit,cat,bear boy who wants to be a chef.This show could be much better.I know this is a show for all ages but it just feels like a show for six year olds to me. The plots go too far sometimes like the episode where Chowder gets stuck in his own mouth.



Animation- Not very good the designs on their clothes change as they move.I'm not sure if that's done on purpose though.



Humor- Not very good most jokes aren't very funny but there's a laugh every now and then.



Characters- O.K. Truffles is annoying but the rest are fair.



Overall this is a mediocre show that could be worth a view every now and then.

dude this shows messed up, i can watch it and it is pretty tolerable but the charicters annoy the crap out of me, this show basicly stricks me as nothing more but a knock off of happy tree feinds but with out the gore and blood. in my opoinion the creator must be on crack or

something, probily on so mutch crack its untolerable

however it is ok, and probily one of carrtoons networks last good shows in my opion the show striks me as nothing more but sketchy and and sorta similer to mario

bros, im series i can tolerate chowder but still its not that great ppl.

(READ THE ENTIRE REVIEW:)



Chowder first aired on November 2, 2007. I remember when i first watched this show. I would laugh at NEARLY every episode. The premise of the show is very original, and the creation of the premise and setting is well-done. Let's not forget the animation - The animation was very clear, exciting, and original.



(More about the animation): OK, You have to admit, The first few episodes of the show had the animation that wasn't really CLEAR and BRIGHT, but after that, the animation is all clear and bright. The humor of this show is original. The show always have its moments, especially with Chowder around. Without Chowder, don't expect the show to be as good as if he was there. Chowder is the main source behind the entertainment of this series.



Chowder's silliness, love of food, the way he looks at life as his own playground, and MORE, is what gives the show its comedic ingredient (If you know what I mean.)



Character Development: The show has awesome and well-created characters, like Schnitzel. He always was a funny rock monster, especially since he only said "RADA RADA" to communicate. Although, in "The Trouble With Truffles", he spoke English. It is also said that Schnitzel speaks English in "The Apprentice Games" when he says over, which is most likely true. The WORST character in this show is "Miss Endive". She is just literally too fat, ugly, out of good character, bossy, and abusing Mung Daal in every episode they meet, except in one, she felt bad for him when she thought she killed him. Let's not forget - Gazpacho. He's the man. He was also part of the ingredient that made the show a "Laugh Out Loud" comedy. They are so many more awesome characters, like Gorgonzola and Ceviche. Ceviche is a boy apparently. There are so many least recurring characters like Stilton and Pâté. They could of been major occuring characters. They are funny and cool.



ONE thing i use to love about this show during it's run was the fans surface on it. They always thought that certain couples belonged together and all. They even made AMV's for YouTube, and tributes to this show and the characters and the couples. They also made forums about ideas for a possible Chowder movie.



THE DISAPPOINTMENT: They never released a Chowder feature-film as the series finale. A feature film would of been the BEST way to close the series, not just a 30-minute episode, like Come On, the creators should of thought better. A premise like Chowder making it BIG in an adventure with twists and what-not would of been better. Sure, the show has its overrated episode (to some fans), but every episode has a funny side.



I also love the show's setting. It's modern and original. The background is all paper-like. Not to mention - Every character on the show has a name of a food. Now, that was original. The creators thinking about that was original and fun. From Chowder, to Mung Daal, to Schnitzel, to all the characters on the show with mentioned names, expect food name's.



The show has a lot of gags, humor, and everything about it is original. It also have its moments, like when Chowder and Gorgonzola sang at The Apprentice Games, and when Chowder was with the Fire Breather Dragons (their montage scene was FUNNY), and much more. I didn't see a lot of the episodes following the cancellation in a while, but check them out. You will see the show's very funny moments, and you will thumps up!



REMEMBER: There is a lot more to be SAID about this series that is why the show was also one of the greatest and very funny. The review is getting too big so I'll just wrap it up! Check the other reviews for more fan-cruft review information!



Rating: 10/10 ✔



Overall, A show that Cartoon Network was STUPID to end. The next "SpongeBob SquarePants" is DEAD, A original show, nice character development, nice animation, nice setting, original moments, original personalities, ETC., and now, all we can say is THIS - R.I.P Chowder. We will all Miss You. ❤

NO!! How could have Chowder ended?! I don't know if this can be true or not but seriously. If CN has officialy stopped making Chowder, they make yet another mistake by taking away one of their best cartoons, I'm suspecting Adventure Time made Chowder stop since it said it ended the first day Adventure Time premiered. Don't get me wrong Adventure Time is a great show along with Chowder, but why CN? Again, I'm not sure if this is seriously true but I sure hope not. If Chowder seriously is done I'm complaining to the network, atleast we got to enjoy it for 3 years. R.I.P Chowder. Grade: A+

At first, I wasn't going to watch this show. When a friend of mine kept begging me to, I decided to watch the premiere. I think I made a good choice. Almost every episode I've seen has made me laugh. It's really good and the creator of this show, C.H. Greenblatt has worked on a lot of other shows I like. The thing about this show is that everyone says stuff like "Chowder is rubbish and not funny at all. I like the old shows on Cartoon Network better." This is quite irritating. I think sometimes they just don't bother watching the show. They think it's some silly baby show but it has the same humor as The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy and Ed, Edd, and Eddy. People just need to watch the show for themselves and not judge. I give this show an A.

Chowder is one of the greatest cartoons I have ever watched. Chowder is adorable and absolutely out-and-out hilarious, and of course his obsession with food only makes things on the show funnier, cuz it gets him into trouble a lot. Mung Daal is completely outrageous, but in a good way - plus he's a great cook and an amazing role model to Chowder...well, OK, maybe not amazing. LOL. Schnizel, Mung's helper, is so unpredictably crazy and funny - you never know what he's gonna do next. Truffles has a great reputation on my part, mostly cuz she's played by my fave voice actress, Tara Strong. Miss Endive is the typical control freak and competetor - and she's rather conceited about her cooking and "good looks" (which, by the way, are not good at all. LOL). Panini, a little girl who is Endive's apprentice, is as adorable as Chowder, and her obsession over being Chowder's girlfriend and her obliviousness to the fact that Chowder doesn't want her to be his girfriend (hmmm, where have I seen this naive behavior before? Ahem *Making Fiends* ahem) makes out for one crazy episode. In conclusion, Chowder is certainly a delicious animated comedy, and deserves way more praise than it gets.



EDIT 3/28/10: I am really ticked off right now. It has to do with this show. Wanna know why? Well it's definitely not because Chowder sucks - no, CN DOES. Apparently the channel refused a third season, and as of January 2010, Chowder is only airing new episodes that have already been made. Production has stopped. Overall, what does this mean? Chowder has apparently been cancelled. Great job, CN. You've just pretty much lost another viewer, and that would be me. I will now only be watching this channel on Thursdays for Chowder and 6teen (mostly Chowder), and the day Chowder stops airing is the day I take all the episodes that I have of Chowder on my TiVo, make DVDs on my DVD Magic Ripper, upload them to my computer, download any episodes I don't have off the Internet, and say goodbye to Cartoon Network forever. I can't believe that you are now getting rid of the last show that made me slightly respect you again after getting rid of all your good shows, which are The Powerpuff Girls, Dexter's Laboratory, Codename: Kids Next Door, Camp Lazlo, Sailor Moon, Hamtaro, and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends. Thanks for the good times, CN, cuz you won't be seeing me again once Chowder is gone. Goodbye and good riddance to a once awesome network gone down the crapper.

I have to admit it, It's a really great show! But on the starting of season two, it's becoming a little dirty. Other than that, it's great. How do I watch it? My parents like to protect me and not to watch stuff like this... -_-'' So, Of course I wait until They leave to go somewhere, like boone, or gatlin burge, and then I grab popcorn and watch chowder! So this is a VERY VERY great show, Until adventure time came up. What happened?! Did they take a break or did adventure time take over chowder?! Once again, Cartoonnetwork made a hit, just like ed edd n eddy, And then some other show takes over it. Mario620, OUT.

so cn why did this end huh.It was a good show and the 1 i liked right now on cn .So chowder is about a furry bear rabbit thing calld chowder who is a apprentice to mung daal andwors at his catering company. So the show is funny and random and the funniest show on cn. It is very original (who would this of this and all these people things). I like all the random comedy in it and how they named all the characters after food. This is the best of cartoon network but now they canceled it THANKS CARTOON NETWORK.

Why is Cartoon Network canceling the good shows and keeping on the bad ones??



This was the only good show since Ed Edd n Eddy got canceled, and they ended this too. First of all, the show is hilarious. Chowder is completely random and does hilarious things like mistake "home run" (from Sniffleball) for running to your house. Second of all, nice moral.



The show is about a bunny-rabbit-cat combined creature who has an apprentice named Mung Daal and the simplest recipes turns into the craziest adventures. WHY is Cartoon Network being idiots?



CANCELING the only good show on CN since all the others got flushed down the toilet



My only minus is Ms. Endive. She is not funny, and is the fattest creature I've ever seen in my life. She makes that pig lady (from Chowder Loses His Hat and The Wrong Address) look skinny.



CARTOON NETWORK need to go back to when things were good, and this is one of those good shows.



The show had a future to be as good as SpongeBob. CN is sh*t

Ah yes, Chowder. What an O.K. show it was. It's about a little bear\racoon kid who is the apprentice of Mung Daal, owner of a sucessful kitchen in Marzipan City. They are also competing against Endive and her apprentice Panini. When I looked at the first episode of the show, I liked it. But later the episodes got mediocre, but that dosen't make this show suck, because when I think of this show, I think of it's character designs. I think they are great (except for Endive's), that's why I still like Chowder and Shnitzel as characters. They are probably my favorite characters of the show. Overall, it's O.K., the episodes are decent, the character design is great, and the writing is decent also. If your a person who likes food, why not give it ago, because then you can see the different foods of the dimension of Marzipan City.
