LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Get in! We are taking a little joyride around Chillion-5. 'My Dad the Bounty Hunter' is a show that we used to imagine as children. The series is a fun ride of family drama where the father and the children have fun without the mom. The children realize their innate powers after fighting with a fire machine to win a part of their damaged spacecraft. Everything that goes wrong eventually gets right, amends are made and bonds get stronger throughout the 10-episode series.

Netflix's new animated series, 'My Dad the Bounty Hunter', is a fun drive through the world of "Chillas", an intelligent creature on the planet Chillion-5, which is seen as the Disneyland of Galaxy, are actually tortured and enslaved to dig gems. The creatures throughout the movie are cute and fun but not scary. Even the villains aren't that scary except obviously the lizard disguised as a human.

When Terry, Lisa and Sean are back to earth after defeating the "conglomerate", they are caught by their mom, Tess who reveals a shocking truth to the siblings. Turns out, that Tess was initially a bounty set to be captured by Terry, but instead, they fell in love and escaped to a quieter place on earth, hiding from being caught. Tess is actually an alien with powers but just wants to protect her children and stay away from the space villains. Considering the mishaps and the danger he put his kids into, Terry takes a U-turn from his bounty hunter job and decides to quit, but as soon as that decision is made, the lizard man from the conglomerate knocks on their door starting a sequence of fights, where the family is seen trying to finish him. With everyone, including the kids trying to find ways to send him back to his planet, they discover a major truth that will change the course of the show. 

How does 'My Dad the Bounty Hunter' Season 1 end?

The best thing is that the creators didn't end the first season on a cliffhanger and actually answered many questions that the audience had from the start. The last 15 minutes of Episode 10 were intense as the whole family fights the villain, and they unintentionally find a way to end him. When Sean throws the Warp pods (from Episode one that helps make the time jumps through the universe) at the villain, which then leads to it severing his arm in the process. When they insert that warp pod in his chest and flung a sword at it, they manage to end him and send him back to his realm. But the question comes up whether the warp pods can be used as a weapon to kill extraterrestrial villains?

Later, the same way the villian went back to his realm, returns grandma's cat, who we didn't see vanishing into space. Has the villain taken the appearance of the cat? Or did the cat actually vanish into space? Also, what is up with Terry's mom? Was she a Bounty Hunter too? Considering the fact that she says she has seen her fair share of aliens during the '70s in New York. There are so many theories and as many unanswered questions. We surely can't wait for Season 2 of 'My Dad the Bounty Hunter'.
