Watching all the reactions to the trailer before all the episodes came out & analyzing them in retrospect sure is interesting.

So, while that's not the kind of series I usually watch, I did watch Laserhawk because, well, Rayman. And like most, I was pleasantly surprised, not only by the overall quality of the series, but also by the way the treated the various Ubisoft IPs. That is, in very unexpected and unconventional ways, but which always felt more like a homage than a satire of the various franchises in question, and the result is creative and refreshing. Though originally wary of the premise, I especially liked what they did with Rayman, and I look forward to seeing what will become of him in the next season, should the show get renewed.
In fact, I think they did a better job here with the Rayman IP than we ever got in ten years of UbiArt games. Like I said many times, the gameplay was great, but the botched scenarios, the subpar lore, the inconsistency, the slapstick humor and other kindergarten jokes such as pig latin... none of that felt like respect.
So yeah, well done Captain Laserhawk team for producing this, and Ubisoft for giving them so much leeway. I look forward to what's next.
I don't deem Rayman Orgins to be a mockery of Rayman, just a different take on the franchise. It's cartoony like the first, & it's comedic like the third. But then again, it was my first Rayman game so of course I'm biased here.

I mean... It's a very well known fact that everybody loves titties.
Except captain Laserhawk, of course : he's gay.

Nope! I still haven't gotten around to even watching the series. I'm so bad at procrastinating!
Just looked up the show on Wikipedia, very amused by the description of "Ramon"

Good cuisine is all about balance. There is none in fish and chips, you might as well be eating fried butter sticks.
Not that nice and crispy fish wouldn't be great with another side, though.
I'd be curious to hear how you two would make fish and chips more gourmet.
About fish n' chips? Add herbs & spices while using more flavorful fish, perhaps even with the skin! Not to mention adding a salad on the side & a tartar sauce dip. Replace the potatoes with sweet potatoes & top with fresh parsley & dill. Also use a panko batter cuz that pairs with seafood really well.
About Ramon? He's Rayman trying to reclaim his identity after saving Bullfrog from Eden & taking his revenge against the directors for keeping him in a gilded golden cage. He was their puppeted parrot who now broke free & mangled their faces.
I think the wiki is just paraphrasing the laserhawk website & trying to avoid spoilers. [I also remember reading more info was added as blurred text, either that or I'm confusing it with tvtropes.com.
The Heroes wiki has a better page than the actual laserhawk wiki [Ewww why did they both have to pick fandom though it's literally 1 of the worst options for wiki hosting!!!!!!]
Here's the page lmao;
