Gortimer Gibbon: Mein Leben in der Normal Street

I really don't like a lot of what is out there for kids in the 8-14 year range. This series is outstanding in that it effectively tells stories from kids' points of view. The episodes show real, thoughtful and respectful interaction between the characters and the adults they encounter, not disrespectful over-the-top behaviors and tripe that many of the networks catering to this age group are showing. My whole family (ages 58, 48, 12 and 10) LOVES it and can't wait for more episodes to be added - as we hungrily watched all that were out there already when we found it over the holidays. Thanks, Amazon, for producing something truly watchable!

Okay, this maybe one of the most bizarre series I have seen its fairly amusing to watch (especially to children and I'd think adults too) as its light hearted and has a good morale behind it. Not to mention the acting is amazing unlike most new series I have seen recently and I hope it gets continued. Furthermore, it seems to be a unique series as the childlike viewpoint is rarely used apart from in two other films that I have seen so for that I rated it as 10/10. Also if you haven't seen it yet I recommend giving it a watch its not as bad as you first think as when I first saw it I thought it was just going to be childish to bother watching whereas I actually thoroughly enjoyed watching it; the unpredictable nature of it was hooking enough but the added humor was what made it brilliant. So please support this series so there can be more episode, thanks for reading. :)

This show is all about friendship and well behaved kids. It's decent and balanced and has no fuss. Every episode has a moral and being an adult I still enjoyed the kids show.

After 14 episodes of the first season, I am now comfortable in saying: Gortimer is smartly written, well acted, and solidly produced.

It transports one to a simpler, happier time, while still meaningful and relevant to the younger viewers. Each episode is a stand-alone tale that evokes the mysteries of childhood and--in what seems a lost art--manages to teach poignant and valuable lessons. Some episodes are more powerful and magical than others, but each one is satisfying in its own right.

This show is one-part "Eerie, Indiana," one-part Gabriel Garcia Marquez, and one-part its own wondrous thing.

We scour all the sources for child/youth films that are palatable,since the majority of the child actors are coaxed to act unnaturally obnoxious. We really hope that there are more of these in the series and the directors and producers can use their talent to produce some children's flicks that are actually fun to watch. Our 11 year old liked the story line. He appreciated the depth that the plot was developed. It had mystery, action, adventure and comedy. The kids seemed real and nobody overacted. I wish they had more episodes I wish that whoever made this film would make more like it, even if they are not in a series.
