Chip et patate

I stumbled on this while watching another show I've seen at least 6 times. So I thought at least this show isn't THAT one, right? The main characters are a family of pugs, all their names are based on potatoes. Chip has a pet mouse she keeps in her pocket named Potato. Everyone thinks Potato is a stuffed doll. The rest of the "cast" is filled with jungle animals. The episodes are about Chip and her daily adventures. While it's one episode there are several stories inside of it. On Netflix there's an entire season available. My 5 year old granddaughter really liked it. One part Chip start kindergarten, she gets roller skates and does chores. My granddaughter said "she's just like me!"

We want more Chip and Potato! Season one ends on a cliffhanger to keep us adults wanting more. It's well thought out, with great lessons being taught (and learned). An enjoyable storyline that continues through from the first episode on, not just short stories that are 10ish minutes long. Adorable, likeable characters of all types making it easy for just about everyone to find a relatable character or situation. We have seen the entire 1st season at least a dozen times since we discovered this show on Netflix (June 2019) and I'm not sick of it yet. We began watching Chip and Potato with my 2 year old and now her brother's (7 & 10) enjoy watching it too. This show contains just the right amount of cuteness!

The way the characters hang their paws, or when Little Mommy sniffs around the floor for her earrings is super adorable. I like that they have incorporated how the animals act into it, haven't seen that before. It's also nice that they included some diversity, like Nico's family being a single parent household (did they move there after the divorce? Who knows? I've over-analysed the show way too many times.) My son absolutely loves the show, and he's almost 3, so it appeals to younger audience with low attention span (including myself hehe). I must've seen the whole season maybe 15 times by now. So we're waiting for the second season and merch being released. Would love the outfits of the characters including Potato's hoodie, and pajamas, why isn't it available yet?!

Something does this serie irresistible. Not only for kids but for parents, uncles, aunts and the pets. Because it is less entertainment and moral lessons in the fair forms. Because it seems not exactly realistic but slice from near reality. Short, just a great show. Or the best recommandation for be owner of a pug or for not ignore a faithful very little friend.

The beauty of this kid show is how inclusive it is. As a family living happily in modern times, it's great to see a kid show with LGBTQ* characters. Good job, good hearts. Thank you.
