Timon + Pumbaa's TV Show-yay or nay?

What do you think-did you like this show or not? You know I don't really remember enough of it to really judge but there are some odd points about the series: why would you make a comedic off the wall series based on a movie about a guy who thought he killed his father and tried to find happiness to escape from that but, in doing so, started questioning if what he was doing was morally right? I also find it weird that they didn't even try to fit Nala into 1 episode yet they got the 3 hyenas to be in the show even though they probably died in the first film. But really I can't judge the show on its own merits because I haven't seen it in a while. What do you think?

From the few episodes I've seen, I thought it sucked honestly...

I actually saw a little bit of an episode where Zazu was complaining that Timon + Pumbaa were influencing Simba's ruling which caused his "royal reputation to suffer": in other words he isn't being responsible. Doesn't this kind of make the movie pointless? Here's the episode if you don't believe me:

OK so I can kind of get that the writers are trying to seperate the movie and the show and trying to barely follow the show's continuity but that doesn't necessarily mean you can just have the character abandon what he learned from the movie.

Now on topic, it's demeaning to the orignal movies....I mean paperwork? Come on. The few episodes I saw had a lion "getting out of it's suit"

There needs to be a 'meh' option for those indifferent. I really didn't think much about it one way or another.
It was something to watch to kill time when I was younger, but it was never a favorite, and the wait through the commercials always had me bored.
Some episodes where okay, but over all, it seemed like they where two completely different characters.
