Some Assembly Required

I think that this show has really good humor for what it is, an interesting set up, and fun dynamics. I this show, I really do, I can't help it. The issue is that this show is very problematic. A lot of it reply on characters being so dumb it is suppose to be funny, stereotypes, being rude/a bad person. And sexulization. A good example of this is that there is a pretty 14 year old girl as a main character who is all about being super dumb, getting whatever she wants due to being pretty while refusing to work, and having feminine interests. It is fine to be a person like that but it is portrayed in a very unrealistic way and promoting bad stereotypes. On top of that all the male characters sexualize and objectify her on the regular, it is just seen as normal dispite being problematic. I would not turn this on for a child but I will use this as a guilty pleasure.

Look, this show isn't winning any emmys, but I think the writing is way more interesting than other kids shows. I watch when my kids have it on and I can't quite predict the punch lines they deliver - they stay just half a step ahead of the easy one-two punch. Of course the premise is ridiculous but it's a ridiculous show! It's magic realism. It's fantasy. It reminds me of Gilligan's island humour but way more enjoyable. I don't mind it as a mindless show for my kids to watch - don't be so hard on it, guys.

Okay, it's a bit cheesy, but quite charming and full of puns and innocent humor. I enjoy watching this with my 8 and 10 year old. 😁

No there are no lessons to learn, and yes the plot is razor thin, but with the rest of today's programming having adult concepts sprinkled into their shows it is refreshing to have a clean show that my kids can watch. There needs to be more programming like this out there.

Some of the reviewers on here are way too harsh for what this show is - it's a kids show. It's for KIDS. I personally find it hilarious at times, and much more watchable than some of the Disney or Nickelodeon shows I'm forced to watch.

It's got a fast pace and lots of jokes, and yes it's silly, but that's it's charm. And unlike some of the other jaded reviewers on here, I find the kids extremely talented. I hope they all continue to act.

For a kid's show it's a 10. For general audience a solid 7. Give it a try on Netflix if you have a kid who is around 7-8 and see what their reaction is. My daughter loves it and I enjoy watching it too.
