    My Numberjacks review

    I loved watching it when I was little. It helped me with numbers and early maths skills, but the meanies can be scary, even the Numbertaker. The villain I mostly liked was Spooky Spoon because she was quite funny, even when she mixes things up. My family didn't know that Numberjack One became a meme where she is referred to as "Beanos". I really liked the bit in the episode one more time when one was making things one more, and then six scolds her for what she did after being bought home and she said sorry. I also remember the episode where Zero was out and about making things disappear, and then six chases him around until he makes himself disappear.

    Loved bykids, less so adults - strange villains too

    The good points are my daughter loves it and it does provide rudimentary lessons in maths and allied subjects. It's not the most polished production, but appears to entertain well, although would seem a bit repetitive (just watch the hour long marathons on the programmes official YouTube channel!) Younger viewers may be put off by some of the enemies in the show, the two that are the most unusual are the Number Taker, who dresses like an Albino Mad Hatter, but has the menace (albeit silent) of the Child Catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang; and the Puzzler, who is a CGI floating bald bearded head with glasses who sounds & looks like what you may imagine an internet groomer to look like and has a laugh that is a bang on impression of Sid James from the 'Carry On' films! Honourable mentions to the Problem Blob, who spews 'Kids TV gameshow green goo' everywhere and to see has to regurgitate his eye on a stalk through his mouth; Spooky Spoon, who is a Margo Leadbetter style posh talking, well, spoon..; and the Shape Japer, which is an even more basic CGI cobe/sphere (alternating) with sharp teeth and evil eyes!

    One of the Best Kids Shows Ever

    Numberjacks showcases how much effort can be put into a kids show. It is consistently entertaining with amazing villains (the Numbertaker scared me as a child) and protagonists with some pretty good traits. I loved it as a small child and it is still great as a teenager.

    There is a bunch of weird stuff but kids won't really notice and it makes interesting viewing otherwise.

    Educationally, Numberjacks does a pretty good job of teaching kids maths concepts and logic while keeping them engaged. These things being the solution to the problems the Numberjacks are facing is great way to prove these are useful and promote problem solving. Overall, this one of (if not the) best kids show I have seen.

    one of the weirdest shows i have ever seen

    This show is just plain weird while i wont lie in saying it can be entertaining its not for the reasons the show wants

    for kids its proboly fine i mean growing up i did quite like it but for the older people who watch it will either laugh at the stupidity of it or question the thoughts of the creator

    im in both camps some of the scenes in the show are halarious of what the poor actors do some of them feel like the direter said "allright now i need you to act like your having a seizure" one episode a man gets chased by a trash can no thats not a joke

    overall this show is the definition of meh it does not do anything paterculy awful but nothing that great.

    This Is The Worst Thing in the history of anything ever!

    cheese fest with mind-numbing sound effects and laughably bad CG and acting creepy villains by far the best thing i have ever seen the villains include a pink talking spoon that steals cutlery that is apparently 'spooky,' a blob that shoots slime called the problem blob, a floating head that captures people in orange bubbles made from his own bodily fluids until they can solve a puzzle called the puzzler, a psychopathic man that kidnaps numbers and keeps them in a vacuum cleaner for all eternity named the number taker and last but not least the illiterate shape changing ball called the shape Japer. oh did i mention the buddy blocks, blocks that are the buddies of the numbers... or children... or parasites... or maybe souls... how the hell should i know

    • Trivia
      The Number Taker developed his character even further and went on to play a White Walker in the Game of Thrones. Perhaps George R R Martin was inspired by the Number Taker.
