The Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That!

It was alright, I enjoyed the words that were used in this film, The Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That!

But it could never top its predecessor The Cat in the Hat (2003)

I ask of you to watch THAT instead, for that film is the greatest film ever created

thanks

Pay no attention to the other reviews, they clearly didn't really watch the show. My 5 and 3 year old love this show and after every episode we've ask the kids what they learned and every time the kids learned (at least) one thing from every story.

It's fun, bright and educational.

Season 3 really leans into the wackiness that was Dr Seuss, but still maintains its educational achievements.

The fact that the Cat is voiced by fellow Canadian is an added bonus.

The hour long Halloween and Christmas specials are good as well. Fun and still educational.

Can't recommend this enough to families with young kids.

We are only half way through the 2nd season on Prime and I am continuously surprised by how much thought went into this show. The Cat fell out of a tree during the last episode and he fell on pillows that were laying on the ground... because of gravity.

It is a perfect show for something short to watch since they have 2 stories in an episode which makes it easy to stop and was the 2nd half later. This has been great for breakfast entertainment before school.

Our 5 year old loves to watch videos on YouTube Kids and this is one of the shows that keeps his attention. 10 stars isn't enough for that alone!

Surprised this show made its debut on PBS as it doesn't meet their usual learning standards. Martin Short as The Cat is fantastic, of course, but none of the information they provide about animals is detailed enough to challenge youngsters.

The animation was a surprise in that they kept to the original style (this is based off a series of non-fiction books that also parody Dr. Seuss' style), but it seems forced and the shading on some characters seems awkward as they move around. A revamp in how the characters look would have been a welcome addition to a show that really seems a bit short-sighted overall...

With other shows like "Dinosaur Train," "Sid the Science Kid" and "Curious George" in the current PBS lineup, this show seems downright simplistic. Not to mention the confusion of mixing fake words with real science terms: a reason LeSeig never wrote non-fiction.

It's too bad, too. Could've been a great show!

I'm writing this review partly because I've been watching the show with my daughter and partly because I read a negative review and thought it was very misleading. I want to set the record straight.

I just finished one adorable episode where the kids traveled to visit reindeer and learn what they eat and how the find it. Next they befriended a spider and learned how a web is made. I didn't know some of the web-making details (I'm a 52-year-old scientist) but it was presented in a fun and entertaining way that anyone could understand. My daughter is 3 years old and I'm sure she doesn't get all of it, but she loves to watch and it certainly isn't too simple for her. It is for children, but Martin Short is doing the Cat-In-The-Hat voice and he is a huge talent and always funny. I think it is very amusing both for children and adults.

I'm watching it in high def on a 1080p HDTV and it looks fantastic. I have no idea what the other reviewer is talking about. The animation is pleasant to watch and I don't see any problems with shading -- I don't think there is any shading.

Anyway, it's a great new show. It is educational and fun. We'll definitely be watching it for a few years.
