Masterful Movie

good back-story, and good acting

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Pocoyo is a product of the Spaniards and English and it is so awesome, easily one of the greatest TV shows for children in the post-9/11 era. It really is themed for infants, but anyone, even grown-ups, can get hooked on Pocoyo. An episode is usually about 6-7 minutes long and in the episode the title character, a 4-year old dressed in blue plays with his animal friends, each episode about a certain aspect of life. It is done in a happy, sometimes sad, but always hilarious way.The supporting characters are all amazing and so lovable. They may be animals, but they have human-like feelings and emotions and that adds to the warmth. First you have Pato the Duck. Pato is easily the most surreal character. Despite being a duck he wears a hat, you can comically dislodge his eyes, his beak spins around his head such that he can become a helicopter (!) and he has very elastic limbs. He also has a short temper and can get angry very easily. The pink Elly the Elephant is a very girly character. She also gets annoyed with ease, because she usually likes dancing and playing with her doll. Symbolizing innocence is Loula, the brown/orange puppy. She will do anything to make Pocoyo happy and like all dogs can't resist a juicy bone. My personal favourite character is the obese Sleepy Bird/Pajaroto. Sleepy Bird just snoozes in her nest all day and when disturbed by noise etc., gets cross, but then nods off again! Her giant cartoon eyes and traits make her even funnier. She also has a son, Baby Bird/Pajarito who sleeps too but far less often than his mother, he has fun playing with Pocoyo and co. Then you have Caterpillar/Valentina, the dim but energetic friend of Baby Bird, the singing octopus Fred/Pulpo (really he should be called a quadapus because he only has 4 tentacles), the gargantuan Whale, Baby Spider and even aliens of many different types come for a visit from time to time.Pocoyo is so light-hearted, so energetic, so funny you will never be tired of it. In Britain it is narrated by actor Stephen Fry. Fry has a key role in making the program irresistible with his very gentlemanly voice. It deserves to be a classic for years to come and if I were to have children one day, I would definitely show it to them, along with stuff such as Digimon and Thunderbirds. A real pleasure.

This is by far one of the most wonderful cartoon shows on TV! It is packed with fun, interesting information, cuteness, vivid and friendly colors, information, friendship stories, simplicity elevated to extraordinary, all in all ... an Original. I love the narrator, Stephen Fry! He is the beating heart of the stories. He coordinates so well the action with the words! Great narrator choice! He is so much fun, as much as Pocoyo, Pato, Ellie, the Bird, and the cute dog. And the Octopus who can make everyone laugh! My 2-year old laughs along with Pocoyo. Hurray for Pocoyo and his creators! Thank you for a wonderful show, Gentlemen! Keep your brilliancy lighting our life!

Before I stumbled upon this show on good old IMDb, I was working at the kitchen in one of those days. I heard a noise in the most grating of ways. I took look and after a second's worth of gaze, I saw something that deserves no praise. It's "Matthew Rants!" It's time for "Matthew Rants!" It's "Matthew Rants!" I'm no Spongebob Squarepants. It's "Matthew Rants!" I can bash Walter Lantz. It's "Matthew Rants!" It's time for "Matthew Rants!" OK, the first part of the song was true. I heard the sound of a bratty baby crying his lungs off and throwing tantrums. The baby was accompanied by a duck, a dog and a pink elephant! The characters are in absolute nowhere. My brain cannot handle it. I rushed to the room and changed the channel! This was the most ANNOYING thing I have ever seen in my life! Oh man! The plot is bland! There is no pop-culture references! The characters are annoying! It eats up my brain- cells. Who created this show? Zombies?! Who are the shows target audience? Ages dead to two?! That should be the real target audience! BABIES! Babies who should don't know their world around themselves! NOT @!#$*%-ING TEENAGERS. As soon as I found out what the show was and looked it up on IMDb, smoke was firing out of my ears. Smoke turned to flame and I dumped water on my head and I didn't want my hair to catch fire. Oh no! Upon reading the reviews on IMDb, teens loved it. WHAT THE WHAAAAAATTTT?!?!?!?!?!? Like I said before, this show is for babies. It is unbearable. It could make LILO AND STITCH look like ALF. It could make MY LITTLE PONY: FRIENDSHIP IS MAGIC look like THE LOONEY TUNES SHOW (read my reviews). It could make LOONEY TUNES look like MONTY PYTHON'S FLYING CIRCUS!!! Why would teens love it?! First Bronies (read my MLP:FIM review) and now this abomination! What next male fans of CARE BEARS are called Care-Bros? Manberries (which sounds like something out of AUSTIN POWERS), which are adult male fans of STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE? Brobies, men who play with Barbie and Ken crap?! This is the end of civilization. It's 2013, a lot of terrible things happened in our personal lives! Those terrible events in our lives puts the 13 in 2013. Bottom line: This is made exclusively for babies. So just avoid it. For the girls, I recommend MY LITTLE PONY:FRIENDSHIP IS MAGIC. For the boys, PHINEAS AND FERB, T.U.F.F. PUPPY or FAIRLY ODDPARENTS. This has been another "Matthew Rants." One more thing, where are the title baby's parents?! Did they just abandon him in nowhere land?

When I first saw Pocoyo I said "Isn't that the kid from Digimon?" as the startup went on we saw a duck that looks and acts like Coach Z from the ever popular Homestarrunner.com website, a pink elephant (Witch is always cool) and a dog I though Pocoyo called "Bo-ya!" So naturally I was intrigued. Now i've seen 1/5 of the season me and my 18 year old brother are hooked! It has great appeal to everyone. My personal favourite is the episode with the Martians.Pocoyo is a small boy who looks a bit like TK from Digimon series 2. But way cooler! He speaks in short sentences but what he says is really cool and the way he says it! Elly is the pink elephant, sometimes she's cool, others she can be a real drag. So there's mixed feelings about her but the idea rules.Patto is the Coach Z and he fits the awesomeness of Coach Z! Homestar runner fans will absolutely Love this duck! He can extend his neck, spin his beak and look totally awesome. him and Pocoyo go together like Apple and Pie! I want a Patto action figure! We don't really see much of Loula (Bo-Ya) or Sleepy bird (Did i miss her?) but there are loads of side characters you can enjoy to, like the aliens and whale. PLUS Pocoyo has his own Ballon powered helicopter! How awesome is that? Believe me, watch it and you'll love it best kids TV program ever, Sorry Thoamas The Tank Engine!
