# Where to Watch Space Dandy

**Space Dandy makes its first 13 episodes a run of mostly self-contained cosmic misadventures. Legal viewing is offered by Crunchyroll, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Video. This 2014 TV season comes from Bones, with each episode running 24 minutes. Its Comedy and Sci-Fi mix favors a new idea each week over a tightly linked plot, so a failed alien hunt might give way to a stranger detour with an entirely different mood. That flexibility is the main attraction. Watch it if you enjoy absurd jokes given unusually ambitious visual treatment, without needing every episode to advance one central story.**

## Synopsis

Dandy roams from planet to planet in search of unusual alien species that could bring in bounty money. He travels with a vacuum robot whose judgment often exceeds his own and a catlike companion who is rarely much help. Their attempts to earn a reward keep sliding into local problems or cosmic mishaps, and the original premise lets each episode follow its own strange path. Some adventures lean heavily into foolish comedy, while others use the same wandering setup for a quieter science fiction idea. The crew remains the familiar link as the setting and storytelling style change around them.
