Zoboomafoo

Oh gosh, I remember this show...I was just thinking about it the other day and now I'm coming across it here. Never made a mental note of the title because I rarely caught it for some reason but when I did I liked it.

I thought this was a pretty swell piece of edutainment. I still remember a lot of the animal trivia they taught us with its 3 charismatic but playful hosts (two humans and a surprisingly convincing lemur puppet).

They break up the live action parts with a stop-motion section about the puppet so the episode has variety.

I haven't seen this for over 10 years but if you want something animal related and informative you can watch with your smaller ones then this one would not be too excruciating. In fact, it's very charming.

This was my favorite show growing up and even now it's just as good! Very good show for introducing children to the great wonders of nature and the animals that live in it. Can't rate this high enough!

...and adults alike. Ok, I'll admit it: I watch Zoboomafoo! And I'm not ashamed of it. =) I stumbled across this show one afternoon when Montel was a repeat, and Rosie was a repeat and there was nothing else on. It's great! It's like "The Crocodile Hunter" for children. Lots of animals, goofy brothers who host the show, and a talking leemur as the mascot! Who wouldn't love this show? This one ranks right up there with "Sesame Street" and "The Muppets" from back in my day. (I'm only 18, but that's over-the-hill these days.) I highly recommed this show to everyone.

And neither can I! But I'm 32...soon to be 33.

I saw a few episodes and liked it. I love the leaping lemur's colorful animated sequences and the cartoons of mysterious lumps turning into cute animals! It's such a whimsical "Animal Planet" show for preschoolers where the grown brothers play around with all kinds of critters and run off into adventures with their camping equipment to explore the wilderness. It's a real romp in the vine-covered playroom indeed!

This is a great show. I'm 22, and I watch the show all the time. It teaches a lot to kids and adults...I sure as heck don't know half of the facts they give about various wild animals. The Kratt brothers have an awesome chemistry together, and they're very good on the screen. The lemur, I think it is, is cute, and it works really well also. The show is clearly aimed at children, but for adults, it's a fun way to learn new stuff about all sorts of animals, and because of that, I highly recommend it. 10/10
