I was thinking of adding Dr. Dimensionpants to the horse cartoon thread, but ultimately decided against it.

My views on the show does for the most part not really rely on the, uh, griffins and unicorns. The show has cartoony action, has a fast pace but not destroyingly fast as was the case with Uncle Grandpa, and on the few occasions where the Doctor can think clearly, he can act sensibly and doesn't try to punch everyone senseless *hark*Powerpuff Girls*sneeze*. But one thing does wreck some 3/4ths of the show's watchability: From the ~10 episodes I've watched, the cartoon feels to be trying to be educational and has massive punches of anvilicious-ness, even feeling more moral-preaching than several Disney Junior cartoons, let alone Randy Cunningham or Adventure Time.

The unicorn gives me some Robot Unicorn Attack vibes, although much more of a free-soul and often also self-centred personality. It does miraculously succeed in its apparent job to differ him from Equestrian unicorns, as I have never even once seen anyone accuse him of being an MLP rip-off.

Overall, I give this show "Passed with good margins, but has plot-wise annoyances".

(Also, as to why I'm awake at 4 in the morning? I've had a bad night, although especially around midnight, and I've had the same nightmare the prior two nights in a row. Getting it a third night would probably wreck me hard.)

Yeah, Philip isn't exactly a character that I would use as example for a unicorn, mainly becouse is that kind of comical cartoonish character that don't grasp the point of use an anthropomorfic animal. Yeah, I very picky about that.

But I must say that I like he as character becouse represent all that silly/stupid humor that is part of unicorn stuff. Like the motto "I want be a unicorn to stab stupid people with my horn" or "Be yourself, but if you can be a unicorn, be a unicorn". :P

Yeah, I can agree. The problem is that the demential stuff don't blend well with the parts that try to be more "serious" in the way this cartoon is written for me, making these part "off" with the context. There are other cartoons where they succeeded better.

Woah, I'm sorry to hear that. What is happens?

Ah, you're right, he actually represent all that stuff pretty well! Well spotted.

Perhaps I'll simplify it a bit too much now, but it feels like the whole cartoon is an action high-speed attention-grab rush, but that they try to stuff morals repeatedly into it that messes with the whole experience. It's sort of like trying to stuff yet another newspaper into one's paper wastebin.

It's been done, but perhaps did I get a bit too personal in the personal messages. I had originally sworn never to tell the background story of the nightmares online to more than three very select people.
