Angela Anaconda

This show is awesome! It's one of my favourite cartoons. I've read a lot of comments about this show that say either it's just OK or it totally crap, but it isn't. It's awesome. More people should watch it! I love Angela and her friends.

Angela Anaconda is another cartoon about the normal kid with unique, bizarre friends. She hangs out with the nerd, the athlete and the fattest girl in school. However, most, if not all, episodes focus more on her rivalry with Nanette Manoir. And sometime during each episode, Angela has fantasies concerning her ideal solution to her problems. Often, those sadistic fantasies focus on her sadistic punishment of Nanette. If Angela was able to successfully act out those fantasies, her brutality would easily kill her arch-rival within the opening stages of her plans. I do realize that this is a cartoon and is not meant to be taken very seriously, but Angela's fantasies are simply too annoyingly vengeful for me to enjoy the show.

This show is truly revolting. The voices are annoying, as are the characters, the animation sucks and it's not even close to Terry Gilliam's animation style. The animation is so bad that it makes South Parks's look advanced. Plus i have seen stereotypes of catholics, italians, and nerdy people on different occasions. Shameful how some shows make fun of other religions, nationalities, and the way people are. Is this a good message to send to viewers? Especially little kids? Shame on ABC Family for keeping this crap on for so long with such things on it! When it's all put together, this message tells you that this show sucks!!!

"My name is Angela, hey hello, welcome to my very own show. I'll introduce my friends to you. Oh no it's Ninny Pooh. Shooby shooby, doo, wha, wha! My name is Angela and you are not Nannette Manoire. You stuck up, snot faced, snot. Welcome to my show, starring me and not starring Nannette Manoire."

This show was one of my guilty little pleasures but I can't say much about the content of this show since it's really a children's show. I think it's okay for children and some adults if they can stomach Angela's voice. I also have to say that if your kids like this show then fine and if they don't then that's okay too. It has your typical grade school stuff in it, kids trying to see just exactly where they fit in. Nannette Manoire is your typical, thinks she's better than everyone else, rich, spoiled little brat with her small circle of friends. Angela Anaconda's family is a little less fortunate than Nannette Manoire's family but they have each other.

I was so happy to see that Nickelodeon brought back this show. It's delightful and quite original. Angela is often overlooked by her teacher and family or blamed for doing things she didn't do, which I think lots of kids can relate to. She always makes the best of things, though, and gets into lots of entertaining situations with her friends. Cute without being TOO cute, I recommend you give it a try.
