Peter Hase

I love Peter Rabbit. When I was a child, my parents read it to me and it captivated me. However when I read these reviews, it's clearly from adults who take life far too seriously!

My 1 year old son is entranced by this series and has the biggest smile when he hears the theme tune.

The stories are fun, educational and above all, young children love them - including my 1 year old son.

If adults don't like it, they should probably watch TV for their age and grow up a little.

I have two issues with this. Firstly, generally speaking the show seems to glamourise thievery, vandalism and antisocial behaviour. We are supposed to cheer Peter and chums for stealing and harassing the older members of his community.

Secondly I'm irritated at the low quality of the animation. On first look it seems good almost photorealistic but the more you look at it the more you realise the textures are two-dimensional, low resolution and the movement of the characters is often disconnected from the scenery. It is like a cut scene from a video game from 20 years ago. Considering this is the BBC I would expect a more polished product.

On the whole, not good.

Reading the reviews and the number of people that mention shoes. What about the fact they created a whole new character?!?

It's a good little series with energy and some very annoying songs and sayings that will likely haunt me long after my little one has grown up.

I'd describe this cartoon as a bit lame. The premise is the same tedious plot in each episode with the "heroic" yet mischievous Peter carrying out some sort of vegetable heist with his dim-witted companion Benjamin and the resourceful Lily using his dead fathers "journal" he left him full of plans and ideas. A selection of hopeless "baddies" try and stop them and well, eat them along the way. Naturally they never do succeed and the irritating trio never fail to achieve their effective theft. That said, my son seems to like it and that's all that matters really right?

Just because it's not the original when you was a kid doesn't mean you should call it a disgrace and it's not original Peter rabbit. This is aimed at kids and my daughter starts to smile when it comes on and loves watching it. Absolute shame this programme has stopped making more episodes.
