Bienvenue à LazyTown

My 3 year old loves this show! I have even sat down to watch it with him. I suppose some think it's creepy, but it's made for small children. If you look at the other shows on Nick JR in the morning - it's not much different. Blue's Clues is a grown man in a computer generated world. So what's so out there about humans in a semi-puppet world? Sportacus not only gets kids up and moving/exercising, but also teaches them good lessons. The song Stephanie sings at the end is simple and easy for my 3 year old to follow and try to sing along. I think it's a fun show for kids to sing along to and learn a thing or two.

This is a great show, for many reasons. You can count on a positive message at the end. It's fun and my son likes it. If you have an eye at all for artistic design, the stylized caricature-like production of Lazy Town is appealing.

The previous review has it all wrong. Dora, while it's a good show, can't even come close to this show on visual appeal, especially for adults. This is a show you can watch with your kids and not be completely bored. Blue's Clues is, visually, a very good show as well....this one's better. Also, the healthy spin the makers of this show have included blow the vapid Teletubbies out of the water. No contest.

Lazy Town is a weirdly garish and colorful show that promotes kids getting out to play and run outside. It also encourages kids at home to imitate their moves while watching, so it's got a hint of a workout video about it.

At first glance it appears strange to US audiences, or at least my kids, but a search of IMDb showed the stars are Icelandic celebrities, and the show has been produce over there for 10 years. I guess that's the source of the strange Europeanesque look of the show, especially the star's pointy mustache, and rotten Robbie's oddly quirky movements.

However, just because a little girl wears a short skirt with leggings underneath does not mean a show is creepy or suggestive! Maybe garish and bizarre is just the style of Icelandic kid's shows? I dunno, but Barbara needs to chill out a bit!

My daughter is two and a half, and won't eat anything but spaghetti, pizza and vegemite toast. Since she's started watching LazyTown, she has taken to eating apples and carrots, and recently started asking for broccoli! I've watched this show with her, and it's got a wonderful message, is upbeat, the star (Scheving) Sportacus is real easy on a mother's eyes (he can come teach me how to exercise any time!), and the villain, Robbie Rotten, is a master of melodramatic mugging.

I love dance music, and the show has a very modern soundtrack. I listen to a dance station on FM, and every time my daughter gets in the car, she starts yelling, "LazyTown!" She makes me do the dance at the end with her every time.

As far as children's shows go, from a Mom point of view, this one gets 10 stars. You can't get a much better package than this one. With all due respect to the first poster, Oobi is creepy; LazyTown is the best!

The best part about this show? At the beginning of every show they encourage children to get up and dance every time they sing.

I watch this with my nephew, and sometimes I watch it by myself because this is a great show. It's fun, exciting, sweet, hilarious and it teaches children to get up and exercise and play along with the show.

My nephew loves Sportacus and I do too, because he's a very positive role model for kids. He muscular, a great athlete and he flips constantly, plus when he fights Robbie Rotten there's no violence, just a lot of comedy that kids will love.

There's the perfect mixture of bright colors, puppets, comedy, drama, and great characters for boys and girls to enjoy. Robbie Rotten is hilarious, Stephanie is adorable, the puppets are cute, and Sportacus is very cool, not to mention the music is a lot of fun to listen to.

You can watch this with your kids without wanting to vomit, so watch this with all of your children because its one great time, I'm a fan.
