This show is a gem in an otherwise depressing landscape of unintelligible garbage. So many of the kids show out there are dirty, crass, and gritty. CG takes a different approach towards a show that is clean, idealist, and filled with joy. I was always so glad that my son often chose this over other shows.
I cannot recommend this show enough. This show uses simple story lines to teach valuable lessons. Unlike a lot of other shows out there that cram learning down your throat this one focuses on learning in real-life situations. I am a 5th grade teacher and some of the kids I have encountered do not understand many of the simple science concepts that are presented in this show. George is able to encounter magnets, simple machines and explore cause and effect. However, as the parent of a 4 year old the most valuable part for me is that I can watch WITH my daughter and have great discussion. This gives my daughter realia that we refer back to every day. For example, recently the water in our town was not working and she looked at me and said "well, you just dig and find more water". Although she has learned simple math and science concepts (not to mention the terrific vocabulary, they don't "simplify" because it's for kids) the reason I recommend this show is because it teaches critical thinking, I cannot stress enough how important that is for kids today. This show is a great jumping off point for any and all types of exploration, we should be watching shows that make our children CURIOUS and encourage them to question the world around them. And I know that parents worry that their child will not be ready for kindergarten if they don't know every letter and sound etc... But I am here to tell you if you read and talk to your child everyday they will be fine but if they don't know how to think critically (which they ABSOLUTELY can do as a toddler)they will struggle. So please use this show to your advantage and listen to their brains clicking away, you will enjoy yourself!
CURIOUS GEORGE (2006-2022) is a cute and fun series revolved around a playful, adventurous, child-like monkey, named Curious George and his friend, The Man in the Yellow Hat.

I recently watched the Curious George show, and my experience with it was somewhat mixed. On the one hand, the show has some enjoyable moments of charm and entertainment. The animation is cute, colorful, visually appealing, and the characters are fun, likable, and well-designed. The show's creative team has done an excellent job of bringing the beloved children's book series to life, and it's evident in the care and attention to detail that went into the show's production.
However, there are some areas where the show could improve. For one thing, the plotlines can sometimes feel repetitive and predictable, making it hard to stay engaged. Though the show has moments of excitement and novelty, it can start feeling formulaic after a while. Additionally, some viewers might find the show's pacing slow, mainly if they're used to more fast-paced and action-packed shows. Finally, while the show is aimed primarily at younger audiences, it might not hold the attention of older viewers who are looking for more substance and complexity in their entertainment.
I would give the Curious George show a rating of 6 out of 10 stars. It's a decent show for children and has some enjoyable moments, but it could use some improvement in terms of plot and pacing to appeal to a broader range of viewers.

THERE SEEMS TO be an age old fascination that we humans have with the other members of the Primates branch of the Mammalian family tree. Our "cousins" run the roster from Lemurs, Monkeys and Apes; culminating with the one sitting on the top of the heap. That "King of the Hill" would be and is indeed known as Homo Sapiens Sapiens; which is translated into "Intelligent Man."
THIS SERIES DOES capitalize on this fancying of the Jungle dwelling, tree swinging and vegetarian banana eaters. Developed from a book about the character CURIOUS GEORGE, this animated "cartoon" show manages to in effect embellish the character and put the concept to a greater usage and really fine examples of developing the true potential in the reasoning processes in solving problems of everyday life; be they great or small.
EVERY EPISODE THAT we've screened is both loaded with cute humor and at the same time is laden with hardcore good sense. The problems that the little starring simian encounters are true to life and down to earth. The gyrations that George goes through in solving the situations are both useful and amusing.
THE BEAUTY OF a PBS series like this is that it gives the parents and (us) grandparents a chance to revisit our childhood through the eyes of the new generation. In this case, their paternal Gram (Deanna) and myself (the author) have the pleasure of seeing both Jack and Patrick enjoying every minute.
