Episodes in shows like this don't really demand reviews, there's been fun, quick stuff like this made for TV for probably a half century to a Scooby-Doo saturation point, but whateva.

In my last semester at school I learned about all the romantic writers used in this, and I found it helpful for my own interest and understanding of them to see them used in this way. That was my favorite part of this. Its nice that they still have television relevance in the 21st century. May it not be their farewell from our consciousness. Especially Lord Byron, Mr. live fast die young!

I'm no kid anymore (haven't really seen any in four years), but from the kids shows I've seen, and little bits here and there (and I don't think I'm being too biased when I say I'm not missing very much), there's a lot of selfish, Ritalin lets-jab-right-and-wrong-into-kids-as opposed-to-true-independent-thought-(as opposed to just the notion of it) shows out there (of course, by instinct, we can only be afraid or non-receptive of what is truly new), with a lot of contrived "add interest here" kinda writing. This show doesn't quite feel like that thankfully, or at least this episode, the only one I've seen. While this episode has some of those annoying nervous kids moments (I play a kid like that in a show called The Future Is Wild, so I know those script moments), moments only sentimental forty-something adults who write the shows must enjoy, they go by fast and your left with just fun, fast moving TV. While some shows numb creativity with "minimalist" flash animation, this one has a good rhythm and flash animation that feels very genuine and endearing, something I didn't think possible. Plus, I really do like the character designs... and yeah, from what I've seen, some of the characters too. I liked that girl.

Its educational in a way that could have been heavy handed, but it comes across nearly seamless in this episode. So I think I recommend this show to kids, or at least the episode I've seen, although I would love to see an overhaul of some morbid trademarks in the industry. May it happen to satisfaction, slow and properly.

I hope this review makes it clear that reviews don't actually judge what they believe they do, but can only present the personality of the reviewer. Out of a need to hate, I hate people who think there's a code of conduct for "excellence", if such a term can be taken seriously. An extraordinary person, in my books, one with actual confidence, would be one not afraid to rip his suit off and act like a caveman. So I just give this a ten because numbers can feel arbitrary in a world that uses them so much. Man, do I sound crazy. PS: Check out The Future Is Wild, the cartoon version also on Discovery Kids. If you like this show, there's a good chance you'll like it too.
