Slugterra is Eva's Favorite show, hands down. She loves Eli and Trixie, laughs and Pronto and thinks that Kord is me. I am so glad I introduced her to this series. It is so well done.

I had never seen the show nor heard of it before and to look at the DVD cover I was not exactly expecting much. I tend to believe that many of these shows are all the same without giving them much of a chance. But, in the case of Slugterra I did give it a chance and watched all five episodes in a sitting.
