George, o Curioso

the show is constructed around its writing, the writing itself is multi-layered. while george enters into situations in which common sense, math, and science concepts are introduced, the narrator maintains a sympathetic and respectful tone toward his mistakes and lack of understanding. outlandish situations are presented as such, and they are often funny for both the kids and adult audience.

by encouraging a sense of wonder about the world through empiricism and experience, this show accomplishes the rare feat among kids shows. adults are depicted as present, involved, non-interfering, sympathetic guides. george is often left to make his own decisions. instead of awkwardly presenting and dissecting social norms and peer relationships, the characters' personalities take their respective courses. george has the ability to chooses between which rules to adhere to, and which to not. as such, this show is a standout among early education television for both parents and children. the show's attitude about the world is mature, tolerant, and positive.

the quality of the show is fairly consistent from episode to episode. some episodes have stronger writing and animation quality, some are weaker, but overall, excellent, especially given the quality of the pack it runs with (pbs kids shows.)

CURIOUS GEORGE (2006-2022) is a cute and fun series revolved around a playful, adventurous, child-like monkey, named Curious George and his friend, The Man in the Yellow Hat. This series follows the adventures of the two friends, that have sweet parent-child relationship. George learns many lessons along the way.

"Follows the mischievous adventures of a Monkey by the name of George."

It's a family friendly show great for younger children with curious minds. This a very enjoyable children's show with cute, mellow vibes. George is very cute. Overall, a nice watch. My nephew seems to enjoy it. .

There are three types of young kids' shows on TV these days. The first is the hypnotic category, which has constant noise, motion, and repetition to keep kids' attention (a la Barney, Teletubbies, Backyardigans). The second is the "treat kids like they know absolutely nothing" category, in which shows "talk" to the viewers and ask completely mindless questions that are so obvious they can't be answered wrong (Blue's Clues, Dora the Explorer, etc.). The last and smallest category is the "simple story" category, in which shows teach young viewers with simple, easy-to-follow stories that can hold attention and entertain. Curious George is one of the few shows in that category, and it still teaches lessons in math and logic, which I don't think should be important in a kids' show, but which PBS and many parents believe are very important. Curious George is simple and nice, and I can appreciate its value even though I am neither a parent nor a sub-six year-old child. The animation and design are good, especially compared to the other PBS and Nick shows out there, which just goes to show that the makers actually care about what they are making. Yes, there is a very annoying character: Bill, a bratty know-it-all kid who drives me crazy. Even still, I'm not going to complain, because I doubt he annoys little kids like he annoys me. If you look at the other comments I have written you can see that I can be harsh, and I hold high standards, and this show meets them. If you have kids, and especially if you are tired of the hypnotic shows and the obnoxious shows, this is good, simple, well-done entertainment for kids.

I recently watched the Curious George show, and my experience with it was somewhat mixed. On the one hand, the show has some enjoyable moments of charm and entertainment. The animation is cute, colorful, visually appealing, and the characters are fun, likable, and well-designed. The show's creative team has done an excellent job of bringing the beloved children's book series to life, and it's evident in the care and attention to detail that went into the show's production.

However, there are some areas where the show could improve. For one thing, the plotlines can sometimes feel repetitive and predictable, making it hard to stay engaged. Though the show has moments of excitement and novelty, it can start feeling formulaic after a while. Additionally, some viewers might find the show's pacing slow, mainly if they're used to more fast-paced and action-packed shows. Finally, while the show is aimed primarily at younger audiences, it might not hold the attention of older viewers who are looking for more substance and complexity in their entertainment.

I would give the Curious George show a rating of 6 out of 10 stars. It's a decent show for children and has some enjoyable moments, but it could use some improvement in terms of plot and pacing to appeal to a broader range of viewers.

THERE SEEMS TO be an age old fascination that we humans have with the other members of the Primates branch of the Mammalian family tree. Our "cousins" run the roster from Lemurs, Monkeys and Apes; culminating with the one sitting on the top of the heap. That "King of the Hill" would be and is indeed known as Homo Sapiens Sapiens; which is translated into "Intelligent Man."

THIS SERIES DOES capitalize on this fancying of the Jungle dwelling, tree swinging and vegetarian banana eaters. Developed from a book about the character CURIOUS GEORGE, this animated "cartoon" show manages to in effect embellish the character and put the concept to a greater usage and really fine examples of developing the true potential in the reasoning processes in solving problems of everyday life; be they great or small.

EVERY EPISODE THAT we've screened is both loaded with cute humor and at the same time is laden with hardcore good sense. The problems that the little starring simian encounters are true to life and down to earth. The gyrations that George goes through in solving the situations are both useful and amusing.

THE BEAUTY OF a PBS series like this is that it gives the parents and (us) grandparents a chance to revisit our childhood through the eyes of the new generation. In this case, their paternal Gram (Deanna) and myself (the author) have the pleasure of seeing both Jack and Patrick enjoying every minute.
