Gli amici immaginari di casa Foster

A good show for the whole family to enjoy. Even for adults to enjoy... I think.

foster's home for imaginary friends is a breath of fresh air among the recent droll the kid's channels have lately been pouring out. superb flash animation and completely original character designs grab one's attention from the start.

the show centers around the adventures of blooregard q. kazoo, the imaginary friend of an intelligent little boy named mac. bloo is rather arrogant and competitive, the less desirable side of mac's personality. mac's mother says he's too old to have an imaginary friend, so he took bloo to madame foster's home for abandoned and unwanted imaginary friends. though there appear to be a great many friends currently residing in the home, most episodes center around a principle three, not counting bloo.

wilt is (in my opinion) the strangest friend at the home. he's got one arm and a wonky eye, and yet this does not seem to affect his superb basketball skills or his extremely kind and caring personality. he is a compulsive apologizer ("adoptcalypse now"), and has a very hard time saying no to people ("where there's a wilt there's a way").

Eduardo is tough looking with his large fangs, sharp horns, and skull-shaped belt buckle, but really he is afraid of just about everything. he speaks Spanish and English, and likes potatoes ("bloooo") and puppies ("who let the dogs in?").

coco was the imaginary friend of a little girl stuck on a deserted island. she looks like a cross between a palm tree, a plane, and a bird. all she says is "coco", and she seems to be arguably insane. she lays eggs with things inside them, sometimes bad, sometimes good ("house of bloo").

there are other main characters at foster's, also. Frankie is part of the staff. she is madame foster's granddaughter and keeps the home running. if it weren't for her, i think long ago foster's would have collapsed. Mr. harriman is a large grey rabbit, and he was madame foster's imaginary friend when she was little. madame foster herself is a weird little old lady and isn't afraid to tell you what she thinks ("the big leblooski").

the actual plots for each episode, in my opinion, are just as good as everything else in this show. everyone's gonna have their favourites and the ones they hate, but there's really no solid line. this is definitely a show to check out. if you watch anything on cartoon network, watch this.

Let me tell you what sold me on this show: The title. "Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends" the TV listings said. Obviously, it was a show about a retirement-like home for imaginary friends who had, for some reason or another, worn out their usefulness. Then I turned it on and saw the pilot movie one afternoon. I thought it was the best new cartoon show I'd seen since "Invader ZIM" (although the shows are about as different as night and day).

Kids shows should look cute. That's just a rule. And this one brings fond memories of "Fairly Odd Parents" "Dexter's Laboratory" and other recent additions to the Hall of Cartoon Fame. The main character, Bloo, is just a blue blob, but he's a great character.

But the best part of the show is it's imagination. Obviously, a show about imaginary friends is going to have a lot to do with that, but I've always thought that a kids' show should be imaginative. And this show is very original.

Anyway, it's on Fridays at 7 on Cartoon Network. I hope you enjoy it. I think you will.

I am 25 and I have to say, I cannot wait for this show to come out on DVD. I LOVE IT! It is perfect for kids and even better for adults...as we all know, those cartoons today mean something totally different to adults than children. I recommend this to ANYONE who likes a chuckle...plus, all the characters are so cute...how could you not wanna watch...well...coco is annoying, but every show has to have at least one. This show makes me remember my childhood as I had a couple imaginary friends who I totally believed were real. The only problem I see is advocating imaginary friends as being real. THis could be a disaster to parents. Although, telling kids they are not real is like telling them Santa does not exist. Try that one out...the kid will hate you forever!

I recently went back to watch some old kids shows with my girlfriend. I have to say, this show is almost as good now as it was when I was a kid. The humor can be outdated at times, and the first season isn't as good as the rest, but all-in-all, this kids show, much like many of the other Cartoon Network / Nickelodeon Animated shows from the early and mid-2000 holds up well and has a very nostalgic feeling to it.

With all that said, there are some negatives. For starters, Cheese. When he is introduced, he works by himself for one or two episodes. But the show took it a little to far every once in a while, throwing in annoying characters that worked for about five seconds before making me wish they were gone. Luckily, the main characters also would get annoyed with them, so it's not that bad.

Some of the episodes are genially great. Some are hit-or-miss, and some are bad. Most TV shows are like this and you can't escape it.

All-in-all, this is a great kids show with some discreet adult humor sprinkled throughout that makes it much easier for adults to watch this. But with that said, most adults (that I know at least, and millennials) could watch this show no problem without the head- banging annoying goofy over-the-top colorful migraine inducing characters and animation that brand new shows have.
