Abby Hatcher

Strange show. Abby and her parents own a run down hotel. The hotel is infested with fuzzlies (a sort of rabbit, snail and cockroach hybrid) and it's Abby's job to deal with them. She does this by psychoanalysis, giving them cute names and jobs in the hotel. Ewe.

Following the success of the Pokémon series of Japan in the late 1990s, various studios started making shows about creatures with special abilities to rival it. We got Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends, Monster Rancher, Digimon (and its many spiritual successors), and the Lilo & Stich series.

As the Pokémon series is still relevant today (not to mention that Pikachu has a film which will be released later this year), some studio working for Nick probably decided to make a show as an answer to it. Thus we have this show Abby Hatcher which happens to be made by the same people behind the successful Paw Patrol series.

The show Abby Hatcher centers on the eponymous character who's tasks involve rescuing unique creatures called Fuzzlies whenever they're in distress. When I say the Fuzzlies are unique creatures, I mean we have a blue rabbit that could fly, a raspberry with long flexible arms, two felines with extendable bodies, etc.

At a glance, the show looks a little feminine in style. But because the characters are balanced, I'm sure both boys and girls would appreciate it.

This was the most disappointing show Nick Jr. Released during our time with the network as my kids grew up. I am not trying to be abundantly negative because it isn't actually harmful or anything and is just a kids show, but it is just not good.

I'm not sure what the premise of the show actually is about because it seems like a mishmash of many stereotypical kid's shows forced together in a story to solve problems that don't exist, even in the show's universe.

My biggest issue with the content itself other than being illogical and devoid of meaning is the baby-talk. The fuzzly characters all talk in baby-talk. Nick Jr. Is not the epitome of kid's educational content by any means, but the baby-talk combined with non-problem solving really dilutes anything positive educationally.

Having two kids that force me to consume Nickelodeon, I thought that Peppa Pig would be the bottom of taste in children TV. Abby Hatcher proved me wrong, there really can be a more idiotic, stupid, noneducational show than PP. I'd give zero stars if possible.

One of the few kids shows I truly enjoy watching with the little ones. Abby is an adorable little hero that will stop at nothing to save her Fuzzly friends. The squeaky peepers are especially entertaining with their musical talents and catchy little songs. This show captivates it's young audience with superb animation and non stop action. Splizzacular!
