Odd Squad - Die Sondertruppe

Terrific show Great characters, good scripts (with cracking jokes) and it gets the maths lessons in without distracting from the entertainment. And it's not trying to get your kids to buy rubbish merchandise, so all good there.

Odd Squad is a great series! The humor fluctuates between silly absurdities and wit in a way that works pretty well for both adult and child viewers. Plenty of kids shows are just painful to sit through as a parent, but I'm always down for some Odd Squad. I'd say I've probably gotten more laughs out of this show than some "grown up" sitcoms. The kids enjoy the general silliness of the stories and the action/adventure/hero themes. The episodes incorporate educational elements into the story lines too, in ways that aren't overly intrusive or distracting. Most of the cast act their roles really well for their ages, and they definitely have some entertaining chemistry.

Highly recommended for parents with younger school-age kids around.

And it's absolutely great. I'm 19 and this show makes me laugh like I'm watching an adult sitcom. It's bizarre, educational, and the fact the characters take themselves seriously and aren't 'Dora' style or 'Blue's Clues' style (No jokes, only cute weird animals and abruptly stopping the show every damn minute to ask the audience stuff) means they take the audience seriously.

As a teacher in training I find this show really exciting for learning. While it is educational it's actually really entertaining. It's humour is actually quite sophisticated and there are some laughs for adults too. The quirky characters are very well developed and the writing quite clever.I think the children will really connect with the characters and be absorbed by the story. The crazy situations are great for children. Plus the clever humor is great for parents and older siblings. So while it is a maths show it is quite entertaining. From an educational point of view I can see its potential as an introduction to mathematical concepts to children and I can see how lessons can be drawn from the episodes. I may even consider using some episodes myself! So I give it a big thumbs up from both a viewer's and an educational perspective.

Good acting, decent educational value, quirky. the best thing though is that unlike many kids shows, Odd squad is actually funny. im a teenager whos brothers watch this show and even i enjoy this show and laugh. The jokes are clever and while entirely family appropriate, sometimes meant for adults too
