Plot
This show is about a ten-year-old painter named Max and his best friend Sharkdog, who is half-shark, half-dog, and all appetite. Blissfully unaware of his strength, stealth, and general sharkiness, Sharkdog often leaves a trail of chaos in his wake.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) The characters are either oblivious, bland, or unlikable title characters, especially Max, it because he tries to keep Sharkdog a secret from everyone and is a troublemaker as he destroys someone’s drone one episode.
 * 2) The premise is bland and unrealistic. There is already a show about a 10-year-old with a pet shark, and even that show handled the concept more realistically.
 * 3) * However, it's NOTHING compared to the 2019 pilot.
 * 4) Max’s parents are oblivious because they let Max lie about Sharkdog, and Max lies every Season 1 episode, and they don’t punish him. It emphasized the gullibility of these parents letting their kids misbehave around town in the middle of the night.
 * 5) Season 2 started a decline in the series in many ways.
 * 6) * Max has a bad habit of staring at the camera (although the only time he ever looked at the audience was when doing the evasion dance).
 * 7) * Max's anger issues are much worse.
 * 8) Bad Moral: The show teaches kids it’s okay to lie to your parents and cause trouble around town, keeping a pet a secret and calling people names and being offensive and disrespectful to people with red hair.
 * 9) * It also encourages kids to hate blond people for no reason.
 * 10) * One episode, Olivia disobeys Max’s rules of not letting Sharkdog outside and lies to Max that she’s watching TV when she didn’t.
 * 11) Max also hate blonde peoples, as he is rude and disrespectful to Dennis.
 * 12) Bad gross-out humor, such as Sharkdog farting from eating too many brussels sprouts in "Poots and Vegetables."
 * 13) His friends are sometimes unlikeable because they are yes-mans to Max’s schemes.
 * 14) This show doesn’t teach good morals because they invade responsibility and think lying is the only thing to teach kids.
 * 15) The reason that Max and sometimes his friends misbehave, they want to keep Sharkdog as their friend, which is a horrible, stupid and dangerous idea!
 * 16) The other characters are either bland or unlikable.
 * 17) * Captain Quigley is vile because she hunts and probably wants to kill Sharkdog which is illegal and can get you in jail in real life.
 * 18) * Dennis is a xenophobic spoiled brat who tries to reveal Sharkdog to the public and hate Max just because he has red hair which is offensive because a lot of ginger kids got bullied for their red hair.
 * 19) * His mother is no better because she cares about money and she rewards Dennis with gifts rather than punish him.
 * 20) * Max’s father is oblivious and very neurotic as he freaks out at things.
 * 21) The show is filled to the brim of bad or mediocre episodes.
 * 22) * “Home Sweet Sharkdog”
 * 23) * “Sharkdog Unfetch”
 * 24) * “The Great Shark Hunter”
 * 25) * “Dennis Drones On”
 * 26) * “Fish Fiesta Freakout”
 * 27) * “The Sharkdog Scoop”
 * 28) * “The Party Animal”
 * 29) The show doesn’t show development for the main characters and his friends sometimes because they don’t learn from their mistakes and still cause chaos.
 * 30) Max’s friends never call out Max out for all the schemes he does and he’s pretty disrespectful and distaste  every one who’s blonde for no reason. No wants to be friends with a troublemaker and a blond hair hater.

Good Qualities

 * 1) The animation is pretty neat and looks creative. Also, Sharkdog and Max look incredibly cute.
 * 2) Some characters, like Max’s friends, can be likable.
 * 3) The theme song, which was performed by Roley Pescato, is very catchy.
 * 4) Decently done voice acting from Liam Mitchell as Max, Dee Bradley Baker as Sharkdog, and everyone else in the cast.
 * 5) There are some good episodes here & there.
 * 6) Some good morals.
 * 7) Great CGI animation done in Singapore.

Reception
The series received mixed-to-negative reviews by fans and critics alike because it’s teaching kids it’s okay to lie. It has a 5.8/10 rating on IMDB.

Trivia

 * 1) Max’s hair was originally brown in the pilot as well his little sister, his mother and father.
 * 2) The show had 2D designs in concept art, implying that the show was originally gonna be 2D.
