Jack's Big Music Show

My daughter is only 2 and begs to watch the show. We TIVO it regularly and she goes nuts over the show. I have seen every episode thus far at least 10 times each. It beats the heck out of Booh Baah and other trash like that. The music in it is cool. I even can live with it. My daughter would rather watch this show than any other on TV. She usually doesn't even watch TV but goes nuts when this is on. At least it teaches values and counting etc... It is a great show. The fact that Jack is such a music freak is really cool as well. He likes all kinds of music. My favorite is the Schwarzman Quartet those guys are really cool. They are in every episode and sing really cool songs. Laurie Berkner is really cool as well. There are other kid friendly groups that perform as well. Lot's of fun!!!

My grandson watches this show every day...he is enthralled by it... you can barely get his attention when it on and he's only 18 months old..the humor is great for the adults watching with their kids (or grand kids... as it were)...the music is great too...such a wide variety is hardly ever seen on kids t.v. ...my grandson mimics the clapping and singing...even the animal noises on the "Mel thinks he's a cat" episode...which happens to be one of MY favorites...this show is one the whole family can enjoy...over and over ...as it is in my house...we can't wait for the new episodes to arrive...bravo to the creators of this show and please put it out on video soon!!!!!!!!!

Jack's Big Music Show just started on Noggin. It is a lot of musical fun for the kids. The characters have a very Muppet-style feeling, the kind that seem a bit smarter than average 'toons or puppets, enjoyable for both kids and grownups. Jack, his friend Mary and Jack's dog Mel get together in their musical clubhouse and play instruments and sing together. The show is apparently going to have guest musicians, and each show has a music video from the Laurie Berkner group. My 6 year old was looking forward to the show after seeing the preview spots on Noggin, and was happy with it. I think it should be a good fun-type family show that helps kids explore music and learn about different instruments and styles.

As a child, I eagerly anticipated watching Jack's Big Music Show every week. This show was unlike any other I had seen before, as it introduced me to various genres of music and different musical instruments. The characters, Jack, Mary, and Mel, were all unique and entertaining. Jack, the host, had a vibrant personality that made the show exciting to watch. Mary, the puppet, brought charm to the show with her quirky antics, while Mel, the drummer, added a cool edge to the whole experience.

However, as I grew older and rewatched the show, I realized the plotlines were simplistic and predictable. Jack and his friends often solved problems through music by centering their stories around it. While this was enjoyable to watch as a child, it needed more depth and substance for an adult viewer.

Moreover, some of the songs and performances felt forced and cheesy. The show had a formula that followed every episode, which sometimes made the performances feel repetitive. While the show did a great job of introducing kids to various musical instruments and genres, it could have delved deeper into the nuances of each genre to make it more educational and exciting.

I rate this Nick Jr. Show a 6 out of 10. While it was an excellent show for kids, it lacked the depth and substance to keep an adult viewer engaged. Nonetheless, I will always cherish the memories of watching this show as a child, and it will always have a special place in my heart.

Jack's Big Music Show is the greatest! I have 2 nieces (2y/o & 1y/o), and since the eldest was born, Noggin has been the child-friendly programming of choice in their house. JBMS was a hit the first time the girls saw it. The puppets always play very nicely together which has taught the babies how to share; as well as how much fun it is to play with another child, which is great for young siblings. With kid friendly music videos that range from clever to super-silly, the girls love to dance and sing with the children on the TV. JBMS is also great for adults because there is enough of a variety to the music to prevent it from becoming tedious (like other children's programming.) We love the Schwartzman Quartet and they girls always ask for Jack, Mary, and Mel.
