The Emperor's New School has quietly become one of the more dependable comedies currently available in Australia on Disney Plus, and in the US on Disney Plus. 2 seasons means there is plenty to get through without ever feeling padded. 160 viewers have already rated it on TMDB — the kind of consensus that does not happen by accident. Eartha Kitt is the obvious draw, but the whole ensemble earns its laughs. There is no real reason to keep putting it off — it is right there on Disney Plus.

There is a reason The Emperor's New School keeps coming up in conversation. Sharp writing and a well-matched ensemble are what separate The Emperor's New School from the crowd. It's about Kuzco, a self-centered and spoiled teen who must survive the trials of Incan public school and pass all of his classes so that he can officially become Emperor. His friend Malina keeps his attitude in check, while the evil Yzma (cleverly disguised as Principal Amzy) and her dim-witted sidekick Kronk are out to make sure Kuzco fails. The chemistry Eartha Kitt and J.P. Manoux bring to it does a lot of the heavy lifting. 2 seasons (2006–2008) gave the story room most shows never get. What keeps The Emperor's New School from feeling disposable is a cast that clearly understands the material better than the format usually demands. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

Comedy fans looking for a reliably funny watch will find it in The Emperor's New School. I Am Groot is the obvious comparison, but The Emperor's New School earns its own place alongside it. The complete run is available and best experienced without too much prior knowledge of where it goes. Eartha Kitt is funny in a way that holds up on rewatch. Put it on when you need something guaranteed to land.
