Dora and Friends: Into the City!

I honestly didn't really like the old dora, when I was 6 ,My Mom would say " come, Watch dora " and I would go play instead. Why?, Cuz I was sick and tired of seeing the same faces and problems being solved in the same way EVERYDAY!

It teaches intelligent stuff but it just ,Makes it even more boring. But now I'm 10 and I saw my class mate watching the new dora and I was like "IS THAT DORA?!

Man she looks so different and prettier". I FELL, IN LOVE WITH THE SONG ALL FOR ONE.

ITS so better than the old one if back pack and !ap weren't there, I mean isn't necessary for them to be in it.

But whatever the show is much more better.

This show illustrates and has excellent, wonderful values and morals. The plots are unique and it contains catchy songs. Great incorporation of Spanish and very well animated, likable characters. Really appreciate how Dora and her friends help out those who may be less fortunate. The characters prioritize helping others rather than silly, superficial objectives. All friends work really well as a team helping those that may be less fortunate and respecting their elders (e.g., their grandparents). The show also contains funny, intelligent references to modern culture (e.g., stopping la Diva as she does not allow anyone else to make music). The characters are diverse and again work really well together despite obstacles or preferences which may surface. The animation is top-notch and very colorful. This is our daughter and our favorite show for our 11 month old daughter. (We also love Team Umizoomi for similar reasons)...

This show is a lot better than the first review states, yes when I first saw this I was disgusted that they were bringing Dora back but if you watch it you can see it is a very good show for children to learn basic life lessons as well as another language and I would recommend it to anyone from say... 2-7. This version of the show is a lot better than Dora the Explorer in the sense that it is a lot more educational and informative, It will teach basic maths - or "math" - in both English and Spanish. It also teaches life lessons like sharing and not stealing as well as the magic of friendship and how important your friends can be at times when you need them.

soooo....the songs and premise are plain awful and it really feels like the writers mailed this one in. I'm still trying to figure out how the city comes into play, because the majority of the time they're in some fictitious land doing the same things that football shaped head Dora does. Whats the difference? The lessons are the same but each show feels like it was written 15 minutes before the deadline...One song, for example "...was a pirate, a very good pirate, and by the I mean a pirate who was good..." Fairly certain that a good pirate is a complete oxymoron as the definition of piracy is robbing and illegal violence at sea. (dictionary.com).

While I'm pleased to see older Dora's head is shaped less like Stewie and she appears to have made friends with actual humans, I think this is a cheap version of the original Dora the Explorer series.

When the news came out saying that they were gonna bring Dora back, but that they were gonna re make her, making her older. I had mix feelings about it, specially after I saw the picture of the new older Dora. But I wanted to think that it was all for the better, and that kids that grew up watching Dora get to have an older Dora. After watching the show with my 2 year old little girl, who prefers to see this new Dora, I can say that all in all is an OK show. Is simple and to the point, lots of singing, which is what must kids are in to now days. I also love the diversity of Dora's friends. They all look so different and have different hobbies. I can't wait to see what more
