Heidi

I grown up watching Disneys cartoons in th 90s. I live in India, now most cartoons shown here are created in India which are too bad. My brothers daughter is 5 years old even she is not interested in idiotic indian cartoons. Thanks to kochu TV to telecast this cartoon. Its is telecasted as lily in malayalam. She watches it every day. Even I watch this cartoon.

Heidi season 1 was way better and amazing and the voice overs were very good.But in season 2 everybody's voices changed and it is annoying.And it is not very good as season 1 and Heidi's voice is terrible like when she calls aunt Dete, aunt Dete with a deep 'e' and even the grandfather said once Aunt Dete with a deep 'e'. I hope if they make a another season of Heidi they should make it nice and proper as season1 but in reality I still like Heidi. Heidi talks very fast and her voice doesn't match her personality and her expressions are not too good. Wish they had chosen voice overs for this season as close to the voices in season 1. New character voices are okay!

Having three young children I spend lots of time watching cartoons. Generally I find them unintelligible and often drift off, thinking about work or the weekend or whatever.

Not Heidi. I find this show captivating and well written. Heidi is a cute little orphan who is sent into the Alps to live with her Grandfather, a recluse man who casts a weary eye on his new arrival. However, as Heidi's character grows into the season, it's hard not to love her, and her Grandfather loves her most of all. Then there's Peter, the young goat herder who befriends Heidi. He's a little boy, and not unlike other boys he quests adventure and exploration. Many of the episodes revolve around Heidi and Peter learning something new or challenging each others' wits. Later on, Clara joins in from "the city" (Frankfurt) and along with her Governess, we have a show with character depth and charm.

Most of all, Heidi portrays a sweet girl living in idyllic Switzerland and promotes kindness, curiosity, and a sweet virtue that is missing in so many other children's programming today. In our modern age, Heidi fits the bill for wholesome viewing. I am hoping for a season 2!

This series wasn't meant for us - we're a couple of 60-year-olds. But we find it utterly charming and don't want to miss any episode.

When the first season came out, it was a great series. Even my teenage grandaughter loved it. Unfortunately, in the second season, the voices are all different and they don't even remotely match the original voices. They are terrible. I couldn't even get through the whole season. Also, compared to the first season, the episode stories are not as good, at least in my opinion. If the makers of the show had put some more effort into thinking this through, I think they might have tried to better match the voices. Heidi, alone, sounds like a chipmunk. I will still enjoy the first season and just skip the second season. My grandaughter has watched it several times and I believe she will watch again.
