Brilliant and touching

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

I first saw this show a few months ago after doing some channel surfing. I had no idea about this show so I decided to watch it. I have been a fan ever since. I "researched" the show for more details as to what it is about. I'm a fan of James Bond, Get Smart, The Avengers and similar shows. They have parodied these shows so well. There is no "overuse" of the parody. I guess I would say that The Secret Show is influenced by those shows. You can see bits of Get Smart or James Bond for example in the show but it is not blatant.The abundance of one liners are hard to forget which is a good thing. The dynamic between Anita and Victor especially when Victor says "Who needs a magic cape when I have my bestest buddy with me" is evidence of that. I love the fact that there is a mix of genres in this show. You have action, comedy, drama and horror. An episode from the second series regarding zombies reminded me of those B-grade horror films but done in a very light-hearted manner. I love how there are things to look out for in each episode such as the bunnies, the spider and the four digit code. There's that interaction. Because it is aimed at eight to twelve year olds there have been episodes that deal with "kid issues" such as bogies (boogers). However, the episodes have a bit of adult humour.Being a Monty Python fan and having seen "The Life of Brian" I thought the way that the grandma alien in the episode titled "Ball of Spong" spoke was very much like Brian's mother saying "He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy."

For the United Stater's out there this is a very good cartoon. If your looking for comedy it has it. If your looking for aliens it has. If your looking for spy's it has it! If your criteria also includes little granny's getting knocked out of her time slot. With the inclusion of her squiggly bunny friends then this cartoon is definitely for you.The animation is fresh and nothing I've experienced before. The characters are smart and new. (If your looking for that sort of thing) The show is mainly targeted for a younger audience. But on all levels it can be viewed by anyone with the same results the program was made for. It's very intelligent and you'll automatically be screaming for more just after one episode. You can't just watch it once! It premieres on the 3 headed monster block every weekend. If your that sort of person who's looking for something to watch at 8:00 and 11:00 PM.So just putting in my two cents it's a great thing to watch.

It was like a glass of water in a desert to watch this show. After years of bland animation finally something worth watching. It is a recent addition to the cartoon world, but already i would rate it on level with the best of the 000s.The main characters, and they have lots of character, are two agents working for a world order organisation, their superior and a crazy professor as well as several 'villains' or otherworldly characters.The action/comedy mix is quite good, and certainly one of the more worth while cartoons of late. The animation itself is good. Not overdone but with a nice refreshing style. Anyone with this on their TV guide should check it out.

I had to look up this "British import" on IMDb because the info in TV Guide was almost non-existent. It just started running on a Nickelodeon cable channel in the U.S. My 2 kids (8 & 11) and I watched it today, and it was the best animated family show we've seen in awhile. Some of the jokes are too sophisticated for the 8-year-old but my 11-year-old gets all the spy movie references and some of the British humor. (He's a huge fan of the James Bond films.) Name Changes Daily is one of the funniest running gags. I was trying to figure out who the voice actors were because several were familiar, though only one has an IMDb photo. I wasn't surprised to find out that Anita's voice was the same as Wendy in some of the Bob the Builder episodes. I'm sure there are many voice actors in the U.K., just like the U.S., who are in multiple shows (hooray for Clancy Brown and Tim Curry). It also turns out that one actor is in Corneil & Bernie, but I wouldn't have been surprised if Tim Curry had shown up somewhere. We can't wait till next week's episode!
