An odd but sweet and frequently funny animated series, Chowder is the brainchild of writer and artist C.H. Greenblatt, whose previous credits, SpongeBob SquarePants and The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy (among others), are echoed by the surreal goings-on in this program. Set in the bustling metropolis of Marzipan City, Chowder follows the adventures of its eponymous hero (voiced by Nicky Jones), an excitable young creature whose impulsive nature often gets in the way of his abiding dream: to learn the art of cooking from his employer, master chef Mung Daal (Dwight Schultz). Episodes generally follow Chowder’s sincere attempts to please Mung, which range from thumb-wrestling a complicated dish into submission (”The Froggy Apple Crumple Thumpkin”) to staying up all night to complete a recipe (”The Sing Beans”); others focus on his equally odd friends and fellow employees, like his gaseous pet Kimchi, who falls in love with a odiferous meal in “Stinky Love,” or the rabbit-like Panini, who harbors a crush on Chowder in “Chowder’s Girlfriend.” More often than not, the show veers into genuinely dream-like territory, as in “The Thrice Cream Man,” where Chowder becomes obsessed with a creature made from a sweet dessert. As novel premises and execution goes, Chowder compares favorably to Greenblatt’s other animation credits, though one wonders if he’ll be able to maintain the off-kilter charm of the ten episodes included in this disc over the course of multiple seasons; the engaging weirdness of the characters and stories certainly makes one hope he can. All of the episodes mentioned here are included in the single disc, along with five other stories (not shown in their original broadcast order), which makes for only half of the first season’s episodes; given their short running time (about 10 minutes), one wonders why the entire season couldn’t have been packaged in this set. Also, a glimpse into the Greenblatt’s creative process would have been welcomed by fans and first-time viewers alike, but the sole extra is a storyboard comparision. — Paul Gaita

Rating: - Funny, original, sweet and a great cartoon!
I was so happy when I found out that Chowder was going to be on DVD, with another volume on the way.
Chowder is a youn cat/rabbit/bear thing who lives in Marzipan City, who has a huge apitite. Mung Daal is his master and a father figure to Chowder (Chowder is his apprentice) and tries to teach him how to be a great chef. He owns his own catering company where his wife, Truffles, takes care of the money. They also have an assistant and friend named Shnitzel who is strong and rockhard, … Read More

For a long while I’ve avoided Cartoon Network except for the occasional Adult Swim (and I do mean occasional). I know they were still making shows with cult following like “Fosters” even though I was never a big fan of it.
However I’ve been hearing positive reviews about their show “Chowder” so I decided to check it out. Wow, glad I did.
So, it’s basically about a little kid who apprentices for a catering company. Chowder is, as one character described, a scatterbrain. He … Read More

Chowder is a great cartoon and I’m thrilled to have it on DVD finally! I just wish the first Vol. contained more episodes than 5, when the first season had 20 episodes total.

- The Froggy Apple Crumple Thumpkin / Chowder’s Girlfriend
- Grubble Gum / The Cinnamini Monster
- Certifrycation Class / The Sing Beans
