Winx Club is actually a decent show, certainly not a great one, but it is addictive. The animation is not bad at all, considering it was made in Italy, and the characters are at least likable. Bloom and her friends are certainly very attractive in terms of looks. The villains are good too, and on the whole the voice acting is more than decent. It is true, that some of the dialogue is lame at times, one or two of the characters are a little stereotypical, and the plot lines a tad over familiar. But the show does have a catchy theme tune, that is well written and not at all irrelevant. On the whole, despite its flaws, Winx Club, and this is coming from a 17 year old, is at least watchable. 7/10 Bethany Cox

The First 4 seasons are 8/10. An amazing franchise for girls. ( Boys could like it too if they were not ridiculously afraid of Linings girls things anyways, I mean not as much as us of course but you know what I mean) Magic,friendship, compelling storylines, glamorous outfits, likeable Characters I mean what more can we want ? (Maybe a better live-action adaptation ?) It had so much potential then the latest trash seasons, my girls would be so dissapointed with what Ignio let them become. Oh it's such a pity! But the initial 4 seasons were a masterpiece and a landmark for the y2k era for me, Come on they were the dreamteam and they were my childhood so I am giving this 6 stars for what it once was.

I know winx until season 3 after the current seasons. The powers got more and more horrible, I don't call powers. I call clothes decorations. I see more bloom and Layla. After season 4 until the current season the defect is bloom is the power of the fire dragon, these current seasons have nothing to do with the fire dragon is to gain fame from the clothes that the WINX SHOW. NOTHING HAS TO BE. COMPARED THE OLD WINX SERIES. NOTHING EVEN STILL STILL SEEING THE OLD SEASONS.

I've been addicted to Winx Club since I first saw it on Nickelodeon. Ok, I'm 28, but so what? It is SUCH a relief to have a girl-led show that has action and adventure instead of just cutesy fluff. You know those kinds of "girl" shows, where there are no stakes and everything's sunshiney and happy? Well, Winx Club is the opposite of that, guys. There are menacing villains, like Valtor and the Wizards of the Black Circle. There are a lot of Nick stars who do the voices, too: Liz Gillies (aka Jade on Victorious) does the voice of Bloom's sister Daphne, and Ariana Grande (aka Cat on Victorious) does the voice of Diaspro. One thing to know is that every season has its own story, so you should try to watch the episodes in order, to understand what's going on.

I'm going to go straight to the point.

The first three seasons are incredibly memorable and truly had an impact on the childhood of every child born in the Y2K era, regardless of gender. The plot? So good. The characters? So fascinating. And the animation was very good.

The tragedy began when Iginio Straffi sold the rights to the USA-based company Nickelodeon; by the fifth season, we slowly saw the characters lose their individuality and strength. And, last but not least, the animation was no longer hand-drawn, which was a great loss for the expressiveness of the characters' faces and body language.

The fourth season was kind of in between-well-written and memorable, but still somewhat childish!

I love this cartoon for its surprisingly good action. The more negative reviews here seem to be about the terribly mis-managed English localizations of the show. Apparently, the show was originally done in Italian until 2010, when Viacom/Nickelodeon started producing it. So for the earlier episodes (seasons 1-2), there are a few different, almost unprofessional-seeming dubs from random studios...and they censor/reduce all of the layered characters into the same dumb stereotypes. Yikes!

Avoid these 3rd-party dubs and watch either the Italian episodes or the newer Nickelodeon ones (both overseen by this show's creator, Iginio Straffi). It's a really fun watch and my favorite character is Timmy (Tecna's boyfriend).

I like this cartoon honestly but they are some things that I don't like from it first of all: the animation. The animation isn't that bad but there's a lot of animation errors and that annoyed me so much and i don't like too much the fight scenes because of that animation it had more potential honestly the only thing winx need was a much better animation (and also dub for other languages in my opinion) the show was good in the first 3 seasons útil Nickelodeon bough the winx club copyright and since that moment the show didn't have any sense because Enchantix was supposed to be the final transformation but they keep making new transformations in the season 8 things got worse because of the new draw style. Also not only de animation had errors also the dubs in other languages had errors like bad translations etc. In the case of Latin Spanish charmix was named encantrix and Enchantix was named the same (encantrix) like that doesn't make sence at all in the case of gujarati language in the episode 17 (season 1) didn't have a single line she didn't have voice and there's much more dub fails and also some of the dubs the characters don't have lines when they were suppose to be talking. (And something that hurts me it's that winx club It is overexploited to the point of no return and originally it was supposed to end in season 3 or in the first movie in my opinion winx should end in season 3 or in the first movie or also in season 4 I don't know)

It use to be such a cute show.i was interested in it. But then, it just kept going on and on . you know how total drama island kept going on with the new islands and seasons? It was annoying and people barley watched it anymore, but it got good when they finally ended it. winx club just kept going on. Idk how many seasons, but every season had the typical, love interest, some evil great threat(s), something goes wrong or gets stolen, (one unimportant character dies), winx save the day. Oh I and I cant forget the god damn new power they earn every season. Winx, charminx, believex, random words with x added on. The transformations took to long , which ended the episode in a to be continued. but idk what year, but they just kept putting new episodes on Sundays. I didn't know, nickelodeon never alerted that there would be new episodes.. No one expected it because they thought the series was finally over. NO. I check back a week or 2 and there are no more new episodes. Its done, no more to be seen. I don't even think that show finished, but I don't care. No one did.

This show right here was my jam...IS my jam!!! It is such an amazing show that has brought me so much happiness and joy during my childhood. I hope that those of you who watch this show enjoy it as much as I do.

See, this is what most people don't understand about this show. It's not American by any means, yet it's been so Americanized to fit this identity that it does NOT fit whatsoever.

Okay, This is a 4Kids show, and therefore it has been given the 4Kids treatment. Everything is heavily edited, they cut out important plot summaries of the show, and they turned the girls into idiots. Basically, they figured that since the girls are wearing somewhat slutty outfits by American standards, they could turn the girls into Bratz Dolls and make money off of it. This is why the American version is the suckageness.

They didn't even have to make a brand new dub, as Rainbow, the company that produces Winx Club in Italy, made a completely different English dub, with all of the character personalities, plots and subplots, and all important scenes and better dialog left intact as it was meant to be. This dub is much better than 4Kids, but since it's on the Italian DVDs, no one really has seen it much here in the US.

What people also need to realize is that even though the girls are wearing skimpy outfits by American standards, is that this is an Italian show, and the girls over there are skinner than over here, therefore, these girls were made to display the normal Italian teenager, and since this is Europe, they are more laxed with their standards. These girls are not sluts in any way, shape or form. They are only that because of what 4Kids made them to be. And even though it's a kids TV show there as well, it is much more wholesome for children when it is left intact as Italy intended.

Personally, if I were a parent, I would NEVER let my daughter watch the 4Kids version. If she ever wanted to see it, I would give her DVDs and have her learn some form of Italian in the process. She'd also never own a Bratz Doll, and would dress like a little girl until I feel she is old enough to decide who she is and make decisions for herself. Yes, this is basically Sailor Moon at Hogwarts, but if you watch the original version, it's actually a damn good show.

I've watched the show from episode one and I love it. It's not a mix of Harry Potter and Sailor Moon. Sailor Monn is a cry baby who manages to kick but with her back-up. Winx Club is a girl who with her girl-friends and the boys next-door, fight evil witches. Their is no leader of the group, and if their is its Stella more then Bloom, who is the main character.

Winx Club is the story of a girl, Bloom, who one day, while walking her rabbit, runs into a fairy, Stella, fighting a monster, Mr. Knut. She help Stella and after Stella offers to take Bloom to Alfea, a School for Faries, wear she can perfect her powers. Their she meets her 3 other roommates,Flora, Musa and Tecna, and they form the Winx Club. Together they fight 3 senior witches at the Cloud Tower School for Witches. They also get help for the Red Fountain boys at the Red Fountain School for Heroics and Bravery. They also aid Bloom in her search for her real parents, as she was adopted by her human parents her father is a fire fighter and her found her in a burning building).

I can't understand the negativity which is prevalent in these reviews...This show made up my entire childhood and I dare say, who I am today. And I can testify that I'm not the only one who feels this way. Everyone I know in real life who has watched this show thoroughly enjoyed it as much as I did! This show is all about friendship and romance as well as fun. It definitely showed me and my friends how to bond well when we were young. Without the show we wouldn't be as close as we are now. The characters have their own unique personalities. Stella kept me laughing in almost every episode. Bloom breaking down and deciding to leave shows how even the main leads have feelings and aren't perfect. The story is refreshing and tho some might argue its like sailor moon gone to Hogwarts, I beg to differ as I believe it has its own essence despite the similarities. I'm not saying that this show is perfect , it definitely has its flaws here and there (I do agree that they wear extremely skimpy outfits though I excuse that because its a cartoon and children need to be taught that too) but it is really refreshing as well as fun to watch. This show can be viewed by people of all ages and genders and enjoy it as well( I'm 18 rewatching this and I love it.) It seems as if most of the haters have decided to come leave their reviews but I can safely say this show is enjoyed by more people than the haters here so don't go by their reviews. Overall it isn't a stereotypical girly show( at least till season 4). I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to watch a fun show.

10 years ago, when I was a fanatic to Nickelodeon, they announced the 5th season of Winx club. It was the first season I've ever watched and it's still in my opinion the most enjoyable season of all the seasons. I've watched and season 6-7 but they weren't as good as season 5. There were so many flaws, odd moments and the trix were annoying. Season 5 had much better story and great characters. I remember being captivated by the cute water characters and I loved them. Sure season 5 had its flaws but it was the LEAST flawed of every season I've watched. And, I think that the series should have ended at season 5 because the ending of the 5th season was absolutely great. I've never watched the previous seasons from 5 and I'm not interested into. But, I'm mostly interested to rewatch season 5 because of the many good memories I had with it.

It was one of those early Saturday mornings in September 2004. I flipped through channels and discovered a show where people looked and acted freakishly like people I know. I was hooked.

And that's what's kept me hooked throughout the whole series. The plot is interesting and I have a lot of fun with the show, but what really stand out (to me) is the character's personalities. They are so real that it seems like real people just got animated and magical.

Of course, the setting isn't realistic. That makes things a lot more interesting, but also, it's really neat to think that even though these characters do impossible things and more than one are fairy princesses, they're just like you and me and him and her and that misunderstood person over there.

Enjoy!

Italian cartoon executives sit around smoking cigars and quaffing olive oil and espressos from tiny crystal glasses. All are fat and sweating as they put the final plans in place for their new method of milking money.

"That'll do," they say. Over and over

"That'll do."

"That'll do."

"Should we spend more time on the animation?"

"No, it'll do, just leave it."

"What about the script?"

"Nah, leave it. Children are stupid."

"I know we needed a theme tune, so I just hummed something while I was sitting on the toilet thinking about nothing at all...what do you think?"

"That'll do."

"That'll do."

"That'll do."

Each department's first idea is taken and implemented without thought.

The only thing they are curiously insistent on is that the characters in it must be frighteningly thin and wearing as little as possible.

"Thinner! Thinner! Less clothes! Less clothes!" they begin to chant.

They begin to laugh a greased, proprietorial laugh. Their minds collectively return to their original pitch to the network: "What if Silvio Berlusconi wrote Harry Potter?"

"Friends, we have achieved all we set out to."

This is an awesome fantasy series (my favorite genre) about a group of teenage fairies, their adventures in the world of Magix, and also in their fairy school, Alfea. Also, I'm into fairies, witches, etc.

I'd first watched it when it premiered on North American TV (I'm from Canada), and after that, I loved it. But I was shocked, surprised, and flabbergasted by the negativity I heard on the animation site Keyframe. I mean, it's all a matter of point of view, you know. I also would like to point out that this show is my first glimpse at Italian animation, as this show was originally made in Italy. My favorite Winx girls are: Bloom: Fairy of the Dragon Fire; Princess Stella: Fairy of the Sun and Moon; Tecna: Fairy of Technology (I love her accent); and Princess Layla: Fairy of Water and Fluids.

So anyway, I really love this series.

This TV show is about a girl named Bloom who finds out that she has powers 1 day. She goes to the woods where she finds Princess Stella of Solaria. Stella is battling an ogre who is trying to take her scepter. Bloom helps her out, and Stella returns the favor (that's what I say) by asking Bloom if she would want to come to Alfea College. Bloom agrees. She also meets Flora, Techna, and Musa. But then trouble starts, three witches from Cloud Tower want Bloom's power. Icy, Stormy, and Darcy attempt to make Bloom's life miserable. But things get even worse when they take her power.And her crush Brandon is a prince and is in engagement with another princess.

People say this is a cross between sailor moon and harry potter. Except this is better than sailor moon, because sailor moon and the gang are almost always obsessed w/boys. In Winx Club they like boys, but don't fuss much about boys...

Whenever I watch Winx I always have to go put something "darker" on like Disney's Gargoyles or even the Bakshi animated LOTR afterwards. The reason why is that Winx is the least "organic" show I've ever seen.

The stories and characters are great but when it gets right down to it, the Witches are the only characters I can believe because they have the organic colors that make other cartoons good. If Winx had a more organic color scheme (say more natural greens and reds than neon pink and green) it be much better. IT could be very good but when everything is "cottoncandy pink" it gives it that air of a show intended for very small children. But, then again, this is a recent show and most of the stuff that's new isn't that good. If it had come out ten years ago people would be like: What the crud? Because ten years ago animation was at its peak with studios like Disney and Warner Brothers coming out with what was the peak of their shows(Examples include: Bonkers, and Animaniacs). But because we're in the age of 3-D and CGI such cartoons are now labeled as obsolete and shoved into nooks and crannies of our minds to make way what for what the masses want. Apparently it's bright and fuzzy and hurts ones eyes even when sitting ten feet away from the TV because the colors are so bright. I toy with the idea of playing with my TV's contrast whenever I watch it. I also find myself switching channels a lot.

My issue with Winx isn't only the colors, it's the improbability of it all! I mean, there's more fluff than real storytelling and certain aspects that are revealed aren't even explained or are explained away with very anti-climatic situations. Put Winx up to something, ANYTHING from ten years ago and its a cardboard cutout! Give me Gargoyles over Winx any day. If you don't want your brain to turn to mush I highly suggest staying away from this "abomination" of shows.
