Later, it got a spin-off called Danger Force on March 28th, 2020, a week after the final episode aired.

While the first three seasons (2014-2017) were poorly received, the last two seasons (2017-2020) received a more positive reception in comparison.

Why These Seasons Feel Good!

1. One of the reasons these two seasons are improvements is the fact that Piper and Henry started maturing. Even Ray began to become more mature and became slightly likable in these seasons.
2. Besides Henry and Piper, many of the other characters have also become more likable like Schwoz Schwartz, Jasper Dunlop, Charlotte Page, Ray Manchester/Captain Man, and Henry and Piper’s parents.
3. Henry still had his superpower that could make his reflexes very fast from Season 3’s "Hour of Power".
   • Unfortunately, he loses it in "A New Hero" and stays powerless for the rest of the series.
4. The decent/cool villains like Drex, The Toddler, Rick Twitler, and Dr. Minyak, are in these seasons, and some like Frankini Valentine (who was already revealed by Goomer that he’s the brother of Cat from Victorious and Sam & Cat have also become more likable, as well as Goomer, Frankini’s assistant and a character who’s also from Sam & Cat.
5. The acting has gotten a lot better.
6. Character development for everyone in these seasons, as Henry and Ray have become better superheroes, and many of the characters now learn from their mistakes, right their wrongdoings, apologize, and get punished.
7. Henry’s family gets called out for their bad actions more in these seasons, which is bound to be satisfactory.
8. They are many good/great episodes.
   • "Hour of Power"
   • "Henry and the Woodpeckers",
   • "Danger and Thunder"
   • "Danger Games"
   • "Space Invaders Part I & II"
   • "Back to the Danger Part I & II"
   • "Gas or Fail"
   • "Henry Danger the Musical"
   • "Thumb War" (A good way to end Season 4)
   • "Dodging Danger"
   • "Flabber Gassed"
   • "Story Tank"
   • "A New Evil"
   • "The Great Cactus Con"
   • " A New Darkness"
   • "Whistlin Susie"
   • "Indestructible Henry" Two-part special
   • "Live and Dangerous" Part I & II
   • Balloons of Doom"
   • "License of Fly"
   • "Toddler Invasion"
   • "Dinner with Bigfoot"
   • "Henry's Birthday" (A good way to start Season 5)
   • "The Beginning of the End"
   • "Captain Drex"
   • The Fate of the Danger "Part I"
   • The Fate of the Danger Part II" (which end the series on a high note)
9. Henry Danger: The Musical has some pretty catchy songs (although the lyrics were somewhat bad).
10. The theme song is still pretty good and catchy, and the soundtrack is much more enjoyable to listen to.
11. The morals have gotten a lot better, as the good morals manage to outweigh the bad.
12. The writing, humor, and special effects have improved.
13. Like the first 3 seasons, the fight scenes are good and are even better in these seasons.
14. Many good episodes, like “The Beginning of the End", "Captain Drex", and "The Fate of Danger".
15. The final episodes are great episodes and, overall, a good way to end the series.

Bad Qualities

1. The first three seasons weren't as good as these seasons.
2. The show had two terrible and unnecessary spin-offs that ruined the series.
   • Though Danger Force is better than the animated series and has improved later on. Especially in Season 3.
     • The series finale of Danger Force ends the Henry Danger franchise on a high note.
3. The characters and villains can still be unlikable sometimes.
4. Like the previous seasons, it still overuses the Laugh Track.
   • Swellview is still a very stupid name for a town and still has ridiculous laws, even for a kids' comedy.
   • The newscasters are still used as fillers since Season 3, which will get on your nerves quickly.
5. Even after seasons 1-3 there are still some bad episodes in these seasons like "Danger Games", "Knight & Danger" (crossovers with Game Shakers and Knight Squad), "Danger Things", and the infamous "Captain Mom".
6. The songs in Henry Danger: The Musical are just unoriginal. One song makes references to famous singers, which is very unnecessary.

Reception

The last two seasons received a much more positive reception from critics, audiences, and fans of the show, and considered these an improvement over the first three seasons.
