If you're enjoying this show, you and the others have to check out some of the other ones. If you ever plan on reacting to another in the future, here's my personal ranking and a brief description of each to give you a better idea of what you might prefer to watch.1) Sonic Satam - the darkest and arguably the most story-driven of the sonic tv shows; to me it has the most interesting premise because Sonic is more of an underdog in the story and doesn't always win at the end of the day - I never felt like the story ever dragged on too long; I would do this as a solo reaction for the same reason you're doing Prime as a solo - not many people will request it or watch it as much as X or Boom; this is mostly due to the fact that other than Tails and Sonic, the characters and lore of this show don't follow the game canon - they're based off of the Sonic Archie Comics, which obviously has less of a following. I definitely feel like it's a crime that more people haven't been introduced to it or given it a chance tho2) Sonic X - it's funny, entertaining, and probably the best one for you to do if you want to get the most views (I would do this one as a group if you can); this one is in an anime-style format and has a solid story that consistently builds off each episode; definitely the one you want to watch to know more lore on the sonic universe; the portrayal of the characters is also the most spot on to the game counterparts; I have always prefered the Japanese dub over the english dub since the english version censors a lot of stuff out that imo weakens the story and the characters (it was altered to be more kid-friendly and less dark) - unfortunately for me, imma guess more people would prefer the english dub since it's the one they grew up on as kids (but fyi to anyone who hasn't given the japanese version a chance, it makes that one kid significantly more tolerable as a character if that's any incentive)3) Sonic Boom - unexpectedly absolutely hilarious; notorious for self-aware centric humor, and it executes it flawlessly (especially once they hit their stride in season 2); its got an episodic format similar to Adventures of Sonic; some people don't like how the characters are portrayed, but if you take it as it's own thing and just vibe with it, it's a diamond in the rough; it would probably perform the second highest on the channel next to Sonic X4) Sonic Prime - a solid sonic show; I think the pacing is great and the action scenes are awesome; for some reason, the characters just fell flat for me tho (this might just be the animation style not being as expressive)5) Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog - your typical 90s slapstick humor condensed into short mini episodes; not really my thing, and probably not something that would perform well on the channel, but for the type of show it is, it's solid; super nostalgic6) Sonic Underground - this one is just pure crack to me; the premise of sonic having siblings is an interesting idea and it has some great lines, but the musical numbers just send me into the depths of cringe hell. If you watch while you're high tho, it's probably fucking hilarious

Is it possible that this show isn't doing as well because it's only you Ruff reacting to it? It could be that for some people, reactions to shows are only worth watching if there are multiple reactors who can interact with one another and point things out and have more to say. I enjoy the solo reactions but for some people it might not be enjoyable enough as compared to when there are three or four of you all reacting. Hopefully on YouTube it'll do better. We Sonic fans need yall converted into massive Sonic fans.

I will say, the lack of comments has me nervous. I hope this series is getting views. Sure, is different, but the show is great and your reactions are stellar.

Hi! Yes Ruff, you should definitely play sonic frontiers! It's one of the best recent sonic games, with banger OST and awesome boss battles. Sonic Frontiers is basically Sonic the hedgehog meets shadow of the colossus.
