Knuckles spinoff series looks like it’ll be a lesson in how echidnas handle business by themselves.

Knuckles zooms in on Knuckles’ new life in Green Hills, Montana, where he, Sonic, and Tails have become a kind of alien family.

After years of trying to be a good parental figure to Sonic, Maddie Wachowski (Tika Sumpter) couldn’t be happier to have people like Knuckles around.

Knuckles is also a vengeance-hungry warrior who isn’t exactly cut out for small-town living.

Knuckles vengeance-hungry warrior look is what pushes him and small-town cop Wade Whipple (Adam Pally) to go into the world in search of worthy opponents.

Knuckles feels less like a full-on spinoff show and more like a solid chunk of storytelling.

It is meant to hold fans over until the echidna is back on the big screen meeting a certain shadowy hedgehog for the first time.

Knuckles’ flashy action set pieces could make the show a success when it hits Paramount Plus on April 26th.

As Wade and Knuckles embark on own adventure, they soon realize there are quite a few former Robotnik employees keen on weaponizing Knuckles’ powers.
