Speaking with Netflix’s Tudum about the renewal, Shankar said, “Our goal wasn’t just to pump out another animated show. My goal is to make one of the best shows on the Netflix platform — period.”
He also encouraged viewers to “Get hyped.”
The announcement comes after the show debuted on Netflix’s Top 10 English-language shows in the fourth spot with 5.3 million views and 21 million hours viewed.
While the show ranked 4th overall globally, it only ranked 8th in the United States.
The series has not been well received by viewers. The show has a mediocre 62% on Rotten Tomatoes Popcornmeter, which was previously called its Audience Score.
It did perform better among IMDb users. It has a 7.6 out of 10 score from over 11,000 reviews.
On X, the show has been criticized for being “Christian bad, America bad, illegals good.”
The show’s creator Adi Shankar denied those criticisms, but has not offered an alternative interpretation.

Just like Velma it likely already had Sesson 2 greenlite before Season 1 was even done. It's all a contract thing, just like why Henry Cavil was still in The Witcher once he realized the show was horrible in Season 1 Episode 1.
Season 2 of this trash is just going to be another loser using a popular IP to preach his Retărdation, and doesn't care if it loses money.
I bet he gets hired to make a Resident Evil or Darksiders next.........
Of course it does. Culture junkies and normies will have their fix of memberberries, while Netflix gets to push propaganda again.
