Sonic Boom has quietly become one of the more dependable comedies currently available in the US on Netflix and RetroCrush Amazon Channel, and in the UK on Sky Go. Across 2 seasons, the show has had time to find its rhythm and keep it. 367 people have weighed in on TMDB, and the verdict leans heavily positive. Watch it for Roger Craig Smith — stay for everyone else around them. There is no real reason to keep putting it off — it is right there on Netflix.

There is a reason Sonic Boom keeps coming up in conversation. Sonic Boom does what great comedies rarely manage — it is actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. The speedy blue hedgehog Sonic with sidekick Tails and pals Knuckles, Amy and Sticks tries to ward off the evil plans of Dr. Eggman, who is hellbent on taking over the world. Sonic faces regular battles with Eggman's henchmen, including loyal robots Orbot and Cubot, evil interns, and giant, robotic monsters. Roger Craig Smith and Colleen O'Shaughnessey lead a cast with the timing to make it work. It ran for 2 seasons (2014–2017), and the writing holds up across every one of them. The timing in Sonic Boom is precise enough that even the throwaway lines land on a second watch. It delivers reliably on what it promises, which is more than most of its competition manages.

Sonic Boom is the kind of thing you put on in the background and end up fully watching. Fans of Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog will recognise the sensibility here immediately. It is a manageable watch, easy to fit into a single week. Roger Craig Smith anchors an ensemble with real chemistry. Genuinely funny, consistently, across the whole run.

Sonic Boom wrapped up in 2017 — and 2 seasons are available to watch from start to finish.
