Eureka!

My daughter was initially excited by the promotional material used to advertise Eureka. I didn't have high hopes. Disney Jr. Throws a lot at the wall. Often times it sticks. There is just something about the catch phrases and overall dialogue of "Eureka" that felt off.

Once we happened upon an episode my daughter exclaimed "EEKA!" So we watched. The first thing I noticed was the speed at which every character speaks. They talk too fast. While this may not be problematic for older children, I don't think the intended audience can follow along.

The characters are one dimensional. The color palette is limited. The animation is not appealing. I don't think this show will last very long. Today when "Eureka" came on my daughter said "I don't ike it." She told me she wanted to watch "doc" and that was that.

Now, obviously, I'm not the target audience and if you're children like this show that's awsome but for someone who grew up on Disney Jr and knows they can make something worthwhile even today, "Euruka!" has none of the qualities the other shows have. The main thing I find enjoying when watching these shows is how pure and entertaining they are, almost every show being wholesome and warm but "Eureka!" has none of those qualities, being a void of boring nothingness. Again, the show isn't made for me but I'd be lying if I said a bad DJr. Show didn't bother me more then random adult animated show number 60 does.

Eureka! Coming your way is a new animated, music-filled series full of life lessons, adventures, and "thinkering!" Eureka! Is the perfect show for kids to learn more about the world of S. T. E. A. M. And problem solving. This show has a diverse cast of characters, endless entertainment, and relatability, and is perfect for the whole family to watch.

Eureka! Follows a fearless, young girl inventor named Eureka (Ruth Righi) who lives in Rocky Falls with her parents and pet Mammoth, Murphy (Fred Tatasciore). Eureka is always designing new inventions and contraptions in her prehistoric community to help make it more modern. From finding a way to get Murphy into the house when he couldn't use the door to creating a one-person band of instruments, whenever she "thinkers" she is sure to solve whatever issue she comes across.

Eureka as the lead character is the perfect role model for younger girls. It's amazing to see a young female like Eureka showing other kids that they aren't too young to be in the world of S. T. E. A. M. I love the support Eureka gets from her family, friends, teachers and the rest of her community. It really encourages her to be confident even when she doesn't always fit in. One of my favorite scenes is when Eureka and her mom Roxy (Renée Elise Goldsberry) are singing about the Rubber Tree Soup, and she shows that her mom doesn't give up when the soup doesn't come out the way she expects it to. While this series is set in a prehistoric time period, viewers will love watching Eureka modernize her community. An example is when Eureka redirects underground steam to create an oven for her mom's restaurant. It gives the show a unique twist that will draw viewers to it.

There are multiple messages throughout the series, like never giving up on your goals, and that even when you fail it's important to try again. Eureka also teaches young viewers about responsibility by taking care of her pet Mammoth, Murphy. Overall Eureka! Teaches kids all about the world of S. T. E. A. M., being fearless when solving problems, and creating inventions even as kids.

I give Eureka! 5 out of 5 stars. This is definitely a kid-focused, family-friendly series, so I recommend it for kids 2 to 8. Eureka! Debuts on Disney Junior June 22, 2022, and on Disney+ the same day. By Tiana S., KIDS FIRST!

Eureka is a show that can best be described as The Flintstones Meets Doc McStuffins, and it's really good. It's like mixing a lighthearted version of the original Flintstones (a stone age sitcom) with the educational aspects of Doc McStuffins (which isn't surprising since both shows have some of the same people). You find all the characters really fun to watch, and there's a sense of freedom with the stone age setting. The humor is sharp and the songs are a banger. We get overarching messages about critical thinking and making the world a better place to compliment the smaller, but still well written messages. I recommend this one.

My daughter is seventeen months old and she likes it, she still gets up and to play and wonder around but the show does grab her attention, I think it's the music she likes to dance jump and in her own way sing along with them. I like the show it's cute, colorful, teaches problem solving, and most importantly I don't have to worry about her learning questionable behavior. It is really a kids show. I don't think the animation is bad it's cute the dinos, mammoth and the other cute creatures look kid friendly very colorful, and the speed they are talking sounds normal to me and my baby doesn't seem to mind it, she repeats some words so it seems like she's l understanding it ok.
