Babar - Les aventures de Badou

I watch this show with my 5-year-old daughter and we both love it. The CG animation is beautiful-- very colorful and clear. So, to start, it is interesting visually. The stories have the right amount of adventure, humor and lessons. It is nice to see grandparents (in this case, King Babar) portrayed as wise yet "cool." He is not bumbling or stupid or out of it. Babar is clearly friends with his grandson Badou and with Badou's friends. The monkey is particularly funny and the porcupine also is funny. The teacher, Miss Stritch, is one of my own favorite characters. She's loving, a bit ditzy, but always manages to impart a useful lesson.

It's one of the few children's TV shows that I can actually sit through and enjoy. So many are downright boring or stupid. I highly recommend this!

I loved this show so much. I watched this Babar series since I was 12 and I'm 16 and I'm still watching this series to this day When I found out that Gordon Pinsent the Voice of Babar the Elephant and Laurent de Brunhoff the author of Babar died, I was devistated and it hit me hard.

I loved the Babar series in 1989 and in 2010 and my favorite part of this series is about the adventures they've went over the years We got to see the Birth of the king to having a grandson who is the future king of celesteville I wished they could make more Babar movies if they had the chance

The Babar Series will always be part of my childhood

RIP to Gordon Pinsent and Laurent de Brunhoff for they will be remembered as Babar Legends.

Disgrace to original. It is badly animated ? No What about teaching lessons ? Yes,some may So wheres the problem ? Problem is there - It is new school. Which means the plot is nothing special and story. It is,like original,about a elephant Babar and his friends. But the fact that is for preschool kids don't means,it must be retarded. I am disappointed of these new cartoons. The same problem as new Care Bears. And as all disappointing cartoons like Adventure Time,Regular Show,Clarence,Breadwinners. New cartoons fail on so many levels... Cant you just make an interesting plot ? As Courage the Cowardly dog has. The lighting is most annoying of all that. If all you cant replica 90s series,rather don't make anything. The only may old-like is We Bare Bears (god thanks for it). Do us a favor,and leave film. Forever.

Visually it looks like a lot of other cheap quality looking shows that are on. It has no real visual appear at all, there is nothing that grabs you about it. Just cheap looking computer animation. My son doesn't seem interested in it at all. The word "tusk-tastic" forced into every other sentence is distracting and annoying. We usually will change the channel when this one comes on. There isn't really much in the way of learning anything from this show either, it's pretty basic and not very engaging for kids. It's kind of a shame because I remember the Babar cartoons from when I was a kid and they were actually pretty interesting and well done. This show just seems poorly made on someone's computer.

Whenever I see a reboot of one of my favorite cartoons, I've always feel doubtful if it has the charm of the original. But Badou, is an exception. Though the CGI could surprise some and the lack of some beloved ones as well (such as Madame). But the increase of new ones as well as it's quirky humor redeems it. It's a reboot that I recommend very much. It has the same charm as the original.
