Postcards from Buster

I can't get enough of the show & I'm almost 18 yrs. old, so you can't say it's just for kids. I'm totally obsessed with Carlos & Mora. They are so awesome!! I know it's kind of odd, but, it makes me happy! The only thing I have to complain about is that there's not enough of Carlos & Mora in the show (well, not enough for me anyway. Although, maybe there will never be enough for me). They are so cool & so cute together, such a cute couple! I love how he'll walk with his arm around her & all that kind of stuff! My 11 yr.old sister laughed at me for liking this show, but now it's growing on her, too. It has a lot of educational stuff to it, but the main reason I watch it is for Carlos & Mora. Their songs are also very catchy. I could go on & on about Carlos & Mora all day... I even taped some of the songs & got Postcards From Buster DVDs.

I get it. It was supposed to be a geography and culture show but adding cartoons to real life didn't make me care about this show. The guests were obvious actors or at least told what to say and do to make it entertaining.

Overall, it was a dud of a show and I never cared for it all. This is coming from a person that watched Arthur as a child during its golden age.

Last Words: Before he became a sad sad bunny.

Postcards from buster is a spin off cartoon of the very well-known cartoon series Arthur. The show was shown during the time Buster went on a long vacation with his dad. I must say Buster must have been having a good time, but for the viewer I'm for sure wasn't. Postcards from Buster is the most boring cartoon PBS has ever made. The main reason is because the show points to kids of the age of 8 to 12, but the thing is that only adults understand the show. It's just too boring to entertain and educate a kid about the world.

What I'm about to say may sound like an exaggeration, but trust me it's a fact. The first time I watched this show I was forced by my mother, and after I watched it, I told my sister it was the most boring thing I have ever watched. At first she thought I was complaining because I had to watch it, then I told her to watch it with me the next day, and she agreed. Really quick fact, I was only 9 when I saw this and my sister was 15. just wanted to let you know. So the two of us watched the next day, and within the first three minutes, we agreed that this was a horribly boring show. With my sister's help we were able to convince my mother to spare me from watching Postcards from Buster ever again.

Word to the wise, just because there is something on the TV that can entertain and educate a kid doesn't mean it's doing the right job.

This is simply a great show. Buster travels around the USA and the world, meeting people of many walks of life. Every episode offers unique perspectives and experiences. Truly diverse and enriching travels are shown, for example: a Pow Wow in Wyoming, crab fishing in Louisiana, maple sugaring in Vermont, martial arts in Seattle, county fair in Indiana, and food and music, well, everywhere. Very enjoyable,to kids and adults, and very educational as well. I really like how broad and non-judgemental the show is. I also like how the show shows real people, I think helping to erase any bad stereotypes by showing how interesting everyone everywhere can be. Keep travelling, Buster!

Love it, love it, love it. Ahem, or rather I love a certain person, whom wears a *very* fashionable outfit of red and black.... (no comment). It is very informative, I love the songs, and everything Pbs does, anything Marc Brown does, anything with Elyzabeth Diaga or (especially) Norman Groulx and Marcel Jeanin in it, is perfectly genius. I don't know what else to say, this humorous, slightly...gay, creative show shows Americans at their best (which is an honorable feat, since America doesn't seem to have a best lately)and inspires children of all ages-take me I'm 20- to do their best. The website is wittily handled, and is very helpful for parents, and fun for children. If you ask any one of my friends, you'll know I'm extremely obsessed, and won't shut up about... ahem. If the red/black thing didn't give you a hint, here's another: Married to a blue shirt/black mini that barely covers her.....

Anyways, PFB is a funny, cute, *hot*, show that should help kids with geography, culture, and corny jokes. Warning!: If your child starts walking around singing, thank Carlos (ahem) and Mora. However, do not be alarmed, because your children WILL pass the history sol's and will know their way around New York.
