I remember loving the 2009 Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs as a child, as well as its sequel, and I consider it to be one of Sony Pictures Animation's best movies ever made. However, this television series just felt embarrassing. Everything about the Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs TV show is incredibly juvenile and disgraceful, and even Phil Lord and Christopher Miller had no involvement with this show. Despite this show being marketed as a "prequel", it feels completely non-canon, and almost like fan fiction. Almost every character in this show has been flanderized, especially Sam and Flint, and most of them felt like generic cartoon stereotypes or never had enough screentime. Not to mention, the Panda episode just felt boring and like a detrimental false truth about pandas as a whole. It's a good thing that this series isn't available on streaming anymore, because it is just embarrassing to watch, and you're better off watching the original 2009 film.
