Mind numbing


Yes, my kids love this show. Clearly it connects well with young people. But it seems utterly empty. It reminds me of Super Why in that the episodes seem mostly about the filler -- long sequences of the Ryder guy flipping through his smartphone and tapping on logos and the dogs sliding down into their snazzy vehicles. Then they go on some absurd rescue mission that makes no sense. The other day it was to save the girl stunt pilot (Skye?) whose plane caught fire. They decided it was too dangerous for her to parachute out because it was getting dark, so instead they had her climb out on to the wing of her burning aircraft and latch on to the cord that the girl puppy was trailing from her helicopter. Exactly what lesson are children supposed to be learning from that?!? Why do the sensible thing when you can do something infinitely more absurd and dangerous?

Let's try not to analyze shows that are intended for children with such outlandish thoughts. You sound like you just want to complain for the sake of complaining. How old are you? Who cares what happened with Skye and what decision she made or didn't make that was dangerous. What's next analyze the methods Wile E. Coyote went to, to try and catch the Roadrunner? ffs... hahaha.

Boy, I hope you're not a parent. It actually does matter whether your kids learn things or not.

Looks like you're taking it to seriously, too.

If you want your kids to learn something I would suggest an educational programme , not one featuring dogs that drive , talk and fly planes.

I don't think the two have to be mutually exclusive. Some of the best kids' shows out there feature absurdly unrealistic situations.

Wow, are you serious??? You're looking waaaaayyy too much into it. LOL

So it's a stupid show for stupid people, is that what you're saying?

reply

It's for kids, get a grip. And if adults like myself enjoy it, what's it to you? LOL

Why do you care that somebody doesn't like it?

yes I agree. The show is very primitive and annoying. But my 4 y.o kid loves it. So, I have to listen to it as well :).
