Big Nate on Paramount+ review: Nickelodeon books a surprisingly average cartoon

Get NordVPN: https://benzj.tk/vpnnow Big Nate is a new cartoon adaptation of the book series, produced by Nickelodeon for Paramount+. I review the series both as a new viewer and considering the show as an important piece of Nick's 2022 content slate. Through discussion of storytelling, creative execution, and visual design, I offer context on episode 1 and episode 2 of the animated series and try and determine what elements of #BigNate prove good or bad. Have #Nickelodeon and #ParamountPlus managed to avoid the pitfalls that have hurt many other book adaptations in recent years, or does it struggle to leap off the same page?
