Animated series review My Dad the Bounty Hunter, on Netflix. I have had to keep this secret for a couple of months now. My Dad the Bounty Hunter is coming to Netflix on February 9th and I cannot wait for you to catch this awesome galactic series. Yes, I just used awesome and galactic together, because you are going to really enjoy this series. Thanks to Netflix, I was a part of a virtual long lead press event back in November, with the creators, Everett Downing and Patrick Harpin.
Series Review
I did only screen the first two episodes, so I will be coming back and editing this review to include my full opinion on the series as a whole. For now, I’m saying it’s a fun series for the entire family. Yes, there are some animated series that the kids enjoy alone, but this is an animated series for the entire family. My family and I watched it together and we really enjoyed the first two episodes.
The episodes run 22 minutes each so it is a quick watch. MDTBH is vibrant, fun, and a look inside a family that is struggling but also managing to make their family situation work. The characters are memorable and you’re going to LOVE the scenes in space. Yes, just wait for it. I can’t wait to watch the rest of the series.

About the Series
MY DAD THE BOUNTY HUNTER is an animated action-comedy series following close-knit siblings Lisa and Sean, who stow away on their dad’s latest work trip, hoping to finally get some quality time together. Little do they know Dad’s been keeping a secret from them — he’s actually the toughest bounty hunter in the galaxy! Launched into the surprise space adventure of a lifetime, Lisa and Sean discover that their seemingly average dad’s job is anything but boring. Dodging dangerous aliens, robots, and laser fights galore, family bonding time becomes much more than they bargained for as they try to help their dad in pursuit of his toughest fugitive yet. With his kids along for the ride, Dad must show up for them when they need it most — and they’d better make it home before Mom finds out!
From Creators and Executive Producers Everett Downing and Patrick Harpin, MY DAD THE BOUNTY HUNTER is a warp-speed adventure across the constellation of ups, downs, and moments in between that shape family life.
