Die Spielzeugfabrik

I think that this show has really good humor for what it is, an interesting set up, and fun dynamics. I this show, I really do, I can't help it. The issue is that this show is very problematic. A lot of it reply on characters being so dumb it is suppose to be funny, stereotypes, being rude/a bad person. And sexulization. A good example of this is that there is a pretty 14 year old girl as a main character who is all about being super dumb, getting whatever she wants due to being pretty while refusing to work, and having feminine interests. It is fine to be a person like that but it is portrayed in a very unrealistic way and promoting bad stereotypes. On top of that all the male characters sexualize and objectify her on the regular, it is just seen as normal dispite being problematic. I would not turn this on for a child but I will use this as a guilty pleasure.

The problem with people's terrible summarizations are: well, they say it's terrible and then give no basis for it. As for a kid's sitcom, it's pretty good. Also, an opposition to a laugh track is ridiculous; it's not hurtful... Why are you complaining about it? After you watch and binge enough sitcoms to tune out the laugh track, it's basically not there. Now, to the people who say they are going to put their children up for adoption if they continue to watch the show, and this is a serious comment. Screw you, you are going to burn in hell.

Look, this show isn't winning any emmys, but I think the writing is way more interesting than other kids shows. I watch when my kids have it on and I can't quite predict the punch lines they deliver - they stay just half a step ahead of the easy one-two punch. Of course the premise is ridiculous but it's a ridiculous show! It's magic realism. It's fantasy. It reminds me of Gilligan's island humour but way more enjoyable. I don't mind it as a mindless show for my kids to watch - don't be so hard on it, guys.

No there are no lessons to learn, and yes the plot is razor thin, but with the rest of today's programming having adult concepts sprinkled into their shows it is refreshing to have a clean show that my kids can watch. There needs to be more programming like this out there.

If this nightmare was intentionally made to be the worst thing on television, it would be an instant cult hit. Heck, maybe that is what's going on and the joke is ultimately on all of us offering a serious review.

It is indeed just as bad as everyone else has claimed. There aren't many things that actually make my skin shrink by three sizes when I watch it, but this does the trick every time.

That being said, like all other shows that make my hair grow in reverse, my kids can't get enough. I don't get it at all, but I don't need to because this show is not made for buzzkillers like me.
