Curious George, what's not to like

"This is one of those children's series that I can actually watch with the kids and laugh right along with them. I like this version much better than the older claymation which we also own, but more importantly, the kids like it and will watch it over, and over and......."
Good Children's Entertainment

"My wife and I do not favor much television for children, but there are times it is suitable. Our two-year old is simply wild about this Curious George series. It is not only entertaining, but CG solves problems and learns things in each episode, that the child can learn with him, so his parents are wild about it, too! From the lessons to the voices to the animation -- even the theme music -- all is very well done. Highly recommended."
I was dissapointed

"I was dissapointed with one of the episodes on this DVD which was "George in the dark". My 3 years old never had any problems sleeping in the dark until he saw this movie. It teaches little children to be afraid of the dark instead of teaching them to be brave and get over fears they could have.
Since my son watched that movie it has been a nightmare for all of us when is bedtime. I think people should be a little more carefull when they are managing a little child's mind.

"I Have to sons who are 6 and 5. I love watching this monkey with my boys. They laugh so loud and hard sometimes. The makers of Curios George Have a great product, it's both fun and educational. Perfect match for growing kids, not boring or stupid as some kid shows. Also no annoying songs."
