I love that I can enjoy this with my 20-month-old daughter. It was great lessons regarding understanding people who are different (autism), not giving up when things get hard, and following the scientific method to solve problems they come across in every day life. It encourages critical thinking skills rather than jumping to conclusions.
The crafty music and the vibrant colors keep my toddler's attention. I also love that all the characters do not look or act the same. It encourages curiosity, innovation, and determination. Honestly, I hope my baby doesn't get tired of this show because it is one of my favorites.

Ada Twist, Scientist is based on the book of the same name by Andrea Beatty. It also features the titular characters of her other books - Rosie Revere, Engineer and Iggy Peck, Architect.
Writing - 2/2. Highly clever and entertaining dialogue and stories. It's not overly saccharine - it's just the perfect amount of sweet and spicy. The show does a good job of conveying science lessons. Asking questions, forming a hypothesis, experimenting, and most importantly - teamwork.
Characters - 2/2. Don't expect lengthy character development arcs, but do expect entertaining, well-written characters that stand out from the crowd. Special mention goes to Ada herself. She's curious, intelligent, and never gives up, like in 12 Angry Birds where she keeps trying to prove her cat's innocence (it makes sense in context, trust me)
Animation - 2/2. Brown Bag Films did a good job of making the illustrations come to life. The way the animation is textured reminds me of Doc McStuffins, but with more realistic hair.
Voice acting - 1/2 the only reason this get a point deducted is Iggy's voice actor. No offense to the actor, but I don't feel like Iggy's voice really fits him. Nonetheless, the child cast are talented.
Music - 2/2 very catchy theme song that's been stuck in my head since I watched the first episode
Overall, 9/10.

I am a PhD candidate in physics and I have an 11 year old niece. I sometimes baby sit her when my sister is busy and I try to find educational but still fun to watch shows. I really liked this show. The show utilizes the cat very well as a plot tool and I liked that a lot.
A big thank you to everyone who contributed to the show! Hopefully I will find a Turkish version of the book for my niece!

My 6-year-old loves this and we love to watch it with her. Songs about science that are catchy and that teach the basics about how to come up with experiments to test ideas with the lovable / relatable characters from the book - can't go wrong. I have no idea what the 1-star reviews are for...
