I'd give this a 7.5/10. Okay. The first few episodes (like 1-3) do re-use jokes, and are probably the worst out of the series, however, I'd say after the 3rd episodes it got pretty good. The jokes from season 1-2 are actually pretty smart! Sure, there's a few hit and misses but overall it's actually really funny.
One problem I do have sometimes the jokes can be TOO on the nose, but it doesn't happen all the time.
The characters stay pretty consistent to their personalities (though with Kuzco, he does miss that dry delivery and sarcasm, but he still has it a little, here and there.) I find Yzma and Kronks dynamic pretty funny. Definitely one of the best parts off the series, it's just so good. They both stay pretty consistent to their characters.
I like Malina, I find her generally likeable. She downsized Kuzco pretty well, making him a more likeable character facing consequences. Also playing as a foil to him as a character, which I like. (She COULD have been based off of Mata, actually,)
The animation is not as good as the movie, however, it still has its charm. It works for the humour they go with. They do sprinkle hints of fluid smooth animation throughout episodes! The backgrounds get much better in late season 1 to season 2.
Give it a watch!
