PJ Masks

Watching cheap British animation, probably made somewhere in Asia, in the 1990s and early 2000s was somehow justified: any excuse to make low cost entertainment to keep the children enough in front of the screen as to watch the next batch of adverts. But 2015 and the same terrible animation plus an even lower quality script? No, thank you.

My son loves it, learned who the characters were by the 2nd episode in and with him being delayed in speech, that's great for us. HOWEVER, every episode the plot is the same. Save the day, but there's always that ONE character that screws up the mission 3-6x's before realizing "oh, that's right! I'm suppose to be a hero, better act like it instead of acting so dumb..." it hurts my head to watch, but my son loves it so I guess I can spare a few brain cells listening to it.

My 3-year-old son absolutely loves this show. As a music educator, I see so many levels of excellence: music (writing, musicality), awareness of self and others, teamwork, apologizing, cool costumes, no violence, thinking through a challenge to find a solution, etc. I'm so happy there are shows like this that my son can watch on his own and I don't have to give commentary because I don't like something that's happening on the show. We quote the show often, and my son's favorite character is the Gecko. He even says his little sister is Owlette. Ha! I'm looking forward to all the merchandise to come out. We will certainly be ready to purchase! I'm also looking forward to new episodes since we watch over and over and over... :)

One of the shallowest and most merchandise centric kids shows that I've seen recently. The creators have clearly tried to hide morals in each episode (confidence in oneself, teamwork, etc.) but they take the backseat next to special effects and other tricks to get the kids hooked. Luckily we have managed to steer clear of this show eventually, thanks to better alternatives.

Somehow, these kids turn into superheroes at night to fight their classmates who turn into supervillains at night. How do they become these heroes/villains? I don't know. I dont think it's ever been explained. Basically, the same thing happens every episode so it's pretty boring. Still, if this serves as a precursor to getting my kid into real superhero stuff, I guess I can tolerate it. I have to ask, though, where are these kids' parents?!
