    Simply A Masterpiece

    A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

    The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

    This show is dumb, but as a child, I was entertained. As a high schooler, I can honestly say that it is a rare occurrence that a phone rings in a classroom and no-one screeches "the phone- the phone is ringing." This show has ultimately become an obscure meme and one of the better shows you can put on for your idiot child.

    The Wonder Pets consist of Linny, Tuck, and Ming-Ming, a guinea pig, turtle, and duckling respectively, who lead a double life as classroom pets and animal rescuers after school gets out. I have to disagree with the negative reviewers who's main criticisms seem to be that it's not educational and Ming-Ming's speech impediment. Unfortunately, this isn't the first time I've had to defend a children's show and I doubt it will be the last. With regards to the second complaint, Ming-Ming talks like that not because it's supposed to be "cute" but because the voice actress has a speech impediment. Besides, many preschoolers don't speak properly so it's relatable to them. Also, what exactly do you mean when you say "educational", because it depends on if you mean academically educational (letters, shapes, etc) or morally educational (things like friendship). If you mean the former, TV doesn't have to be a learning experience. If a show is educational that's nice but I seriously doubt that the inventors of television held a convention and said "and it must be educational". Also, I'd argue that it is educational in that sense because it teaches about various animals. If you mean the latter, then I'd say it certainly is. It discusses teamwork, sharing, problem solving, looking out for each other, and the importance of asking for help (there's even an episode about potty-training). Plus, how can you resist this show? The Wonder Pets themselves are so cute and adorable and the animals they help are also very sweet. I also really enjoy the songs like "what's gonna work, teamwork", which kind of reminds me of Bob the Builder (in a good way). Unlike some people, I also like the way Ming-Ming says "this is sewious". One of the greatest kiddie shows out there and one that everyone should see at some point. Even a friend of mine, who's my age, likes it and sometimes we even watch it together.

    last year when this show aired i was taking care of my little brother at home. dora makes me want to hang myself, blues clues is bearable but only because joe's adorable, and the koala brothers is as annoying as a show can get.watching these shows i managed to find a little diamond in the rough. the wonder pets is an adorable kids show that doesn't try too hard to appeal to children by dumbing itself down (well, not anymore than it has to be for young children.) it manages to teach a moral each episode, usually two (doing it your own way, etc.) aside from teamwork. it doesn't just focus on things being shown then the child repeating the answer (dora, blues clues, diego) but installs morals and values which most shows fail to teach today, and by showing the kids instead of telling them. my brother is autistic and this is the only show he'll watch, and i'm happy to watch it with him. its adorable and ming ming is the cutest and most humorous character on a kids show i have ever seen. go wonder pets!

    What's a bigger problem? A kid speaking and saying W instead of R or teaching that acceptance is important and that kids can be exceptional even if they're different? I'd never ever ever take the Wonder Pets off my kids viewing list. It's the best show out there..Learning about sharing and teamwork is very important for kids of any age. The episode about potty-training (Save the Puppy!) is my favorite.. I also enjoyed the recent episode featuring the Three Little Pigs.Linny, Tuck, and Ming-ming too! We're Wonder Pets and we'll help you! What's gonna work? Teamwork! What's gonna work? Teamwork!
