Right now you can watch Hamster & Gretel in Australia on Disney Plus, and in the US on Disney Plus — and it is funnier than its reputation suggests. 2 seasons in, and the quality has not slipped. Its 6/10 TMDB score, built from 15 ratings, reflects a title that consistently delivers. Meli Povenmire's performance alone is worth the time investment. There is no real reason to keep putting it off — it is right there on Disney Plus.

There is a reason Hamster & Gretel keeps coming up in conversation. The jokes in Hamster & Gretel land because the characters underneath them are worth caring about. Siblings Gretel and Kevin are to be bestowed super powers by space aliens on their birthdays, but after Kevin's powers accidentally go into Hamster, his pet hamster instead, they form the duo of "Hamster & Gretel". Now Kevin must figure out how to work with both Gretel and Hamster to protect their city from mysterious dangers. Meli Povenmire and Michael Cimino lead a cast that never overplays a joke. 2 seasons (2022–2025) gave the story room most shows never get. The timing in Hamster & Gretel is precise enough that even the throwaway lines land on a second watch. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

Hamster & Gretel is the kind of thing you put on in the background and end up fully watching. Darkwing Duck is the obvious comparison, but Hamster & Gretel earns its own place alongside it. Short enough to finish in a weekend, substantial enough to feel satisfying. Meli Povenmire anchors an ensemble with real chemistry. Genuinely funny, consistently, across the whole run.

Hamster & Gretel wrapped up in 2025, created by Dan Povenmire — and 2 seasons are available to watch from start to finish.
