"Geared for children ages 5-8"

You must be joking. This show is way better for everyone --- all ages --- than almost anything else on TV in the US.

Since "the minimum length for reviews is 5 lines of text" I am adding this.

ps Now that I have read all the reviews, I am happy to see that everyone loves the show and amused to see that the first three reviews agree that it is a great show for all ages.

And it's absolutely great. I'm 19 and this show makes me laugh like I'm watching an adult sitcom. It's bizarre, educational, and the fact the characters take themselves seriously and aren't 'Dora' style or 'Blue's Clues' style (No jokes, only cute weird animals and abruptly stopping the show every damn minute to ask the audience stuff) means they take the audience seriously.

This show is HIGHLY underrated on imdb in my opinion, with 6.5 stars at the time I write this. My 5-year old is hooked on this show, and I couldn't be happier about it. My wife and I are educators, and the explanations of math concepts from place value to comparison to basic addition and subtraction are really top notch, and written into the plots in such a way to be extremely engaging.

The humor is the show's other major selling point. The jokes are often simple (which is good so kids can get them), but the acting from ALL the child actors on the show is just top notch. Either they all watch SNL, or the show just has great direction, or something, because their timing is uncannily good and I am often involuntarily laughing from the kitchen as my daughter watches.

Representation is great on the show too, with cast members from diverse ethnicities, lots of roles of agency and responsibility for kids (especially girls), and all the characters are equally the butt of a slew of friendly jokes, so even though many of the characters are admirably portrayed, no one feels like they are on a pedestal.

Terrific show Great characters, good scripts (with cracking jokes) and it gets the maths lessons in without distracting from the entertainment. And it's not trying to get your kids to buy rubbish merchandise, so all good there.

I don't know why it says for kids age 5 to 8 when I think older kids definitely enjoy it too.

Not only kids, but also adults find it hilarious like me for example.

And agent Oscar is the funniest.

I think he won an award for this role.

I don't watch/like most kids shows, but I always watch this one whenever I can.

The acting is great and as I said it's just hilarious.

And also Ms O is funny.

And all other actors are funny.
