Micky Maus Wunderhaus

Just watched an episode of mickey mouse clubhouse. Overall the plot was great, but the one thing that kept me watching was the mystery mouskatool. Although I was watching for the reveal, the payoff was not great. By the time we were shown the mystery mouskatool, we had already seen better and more interesting gadgets. Also Mickey kept yelling at me.

Mickey Mouse Clubhouse returns to the old roots of Disney itself, with morals and lessons, and teaching about helping others, in a fun and energetic way that is very conducive to learning from children. This is something I feel Walt would be proud to write his name to. I hope this series never gets canceled! All of the famous characters from Disney Lore are represented here in the show, and the animation is spot on, and fun, but not overdone. Some of the voices are pretty "close" to their originals, unfortunately a lot of the voices can't be possibly copied (Chip and Dale, etc.) because the character went "out of production" so many years ago, and Paul Frees is unfortunately passed. However, for wholesome family entertainment, this is probably the best bang for your buck today.

This show and Dragon Tales are the only cartoons that my two-year-old son will watch. He is fascinated and recently started answering Mickey back. Yes, this is a rip-off of Dora, but my son likes this and not Dora, so who cares? He has seen the sheep, beanstalk and Mars episodes and been glued through them all. He doesn't watch much TV, so this is a great opportunity for me to unload the dishwasher or get dinner ready. (Thank you TiVo!) One thing that does bother me is that Minnie and Daisy have to do all of their adventuring with heels on. Come on! It is 2006. Ducks and mice do not need to wear heels.

My husband and I can't get the songs out of our head. Does anyone know who sings "Hot Dog"?

My young children love Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, what can I say? But as I was watching with them, I swore I was watching an episode of Dora The Explorer played out with Disney characters. The similarities are many: interactive questions for the young viewers, complete with pauses to simulate the child's answer, followed by an exclamatory "Right!"; a "toolbox" used throughout the show by Mickey (with the viewers' "assistance") to solve problems (just like Dora's "Backpack"); and a review of the successful journey followed by a celebratory dance routine (ala Dora's/Boots' "We Did It!" song). As a leader in animation and film for so many decades, I was surprised to see that that Disney has relegated itself to cloning another successful franchise. But the kids love it...what can I say?

Also, everyone loves the Hot Dog song! It is written and performed by They Might Be Giants.

This a great kids show! They love counting with them, calling for the toolbox and answering all the questions Mickey asks. "MISKA MOOSKA MICKEY MOUSE" they love it! The say it all the time when the show comes on! It gets the kids involved with the show. They stand up and dance or will jump up and count with Mickey. 2 yr old children thru preschoolers will love it! Many preschool concepts are covered. Shapes, colors, helping others and numbers. We have TiVo and it comes in handy. I hope they keep adding new episodes! I do think it is great that Mickey Mouse has a cartoon that is for younger viewers.

HOT DIGGITY DOG what's not to like!
