Kipper

I grew up watching this and looking back it brings so many memories of a simpler time. It reminds me of Winnie the Pooh in how the characters go on a small adventure and usually learn something at the end. Kipper and his friends are likable to watch. The animation's minimalistic but still grabs your attention in its simplicity. The stories are simple and easy to follow. There's a balance between comedy and drama usually with a life lesson at the end. If you have little kids they'll definitely enjoy this and you might too. Take it for what it's worth and see for yourself.

Having watched everything made for children in the last few years because of my young daughter, I have to say that this is the best children's series ever made.

Kipper the Dog and his best friend Tiger have all sorts of adventures. Contains all the characters we come across in our lives. Kipper the completely affable dog has lots of friends, Tiger boastful but when it comes down to it is a complete 'scaredy cat', don't we all know one of these?! Totally under-rated and under-marketed, these Mick Inkpen stories are classics and will entertain for generations if only they would be released on DVD.

Deserves prime time children's TV slot for eternity! Well done Mick Inkpen and the team...

This is probably one of my favourite shows ever (animated or live-action) and has been throughout my childhood. I could honestly gush on about early childhood favourites like this, Little Bear, Franklin, Maisy, etc, but back to Kipper. The theme song and score are very catchy and memorable, the animation appears to be painted (staying true to the style of the books), the stories are simple but intelligent and all the characters are very endearing. I love how Kipper is responsible and resourceful but also playful and imaginative, and I enjoy the rather boastful attitudes of Tiger and Pig. But my personal favourite of all has got to be Arnold, he's just so adorable. My personal favourite episodes are Arnold's Balloon Trip and The Visitor. I adore this show!

This is one of my favorite cartoons ever. It's just funny how Kipper is so much like an adult and a young child at the same time. He is responsible, and imaginative. His friends are cool too. Arnold, Pig's little brother is great. I wonder if that's an homage to Green Acres..?

I adored this show as a kid, I just found it so charming and well-done. The animation is great, simple yes but also very effective. I loved the music as well, the theme song was catchy and memorable. The stories were simple and educational, the writing is funny and intelligent and the characters are really endearing. I like how Kipper is responsible and resourceful yet cool as well, and I love Tiger's boastful attitude. My favourite though is Arnold, he is just so sweet and adorable. And I liked the voice acting, Martin Clunes is brilliant here as Kipper, seeing as he is a great actor who has given a number of strong performances,lead or supporting (ie. the ITV adaptation of Goodbye Mr Chips), why shouldn't he do a voice here? Overall, this was a great show, perfect for kids and adults. 10/10 Bethany Cox
