Little Princess

This show is entirely inappropriate for little children.

The main character 'Little Pricess' is a spoiled, screaming, obnoxious, miserable 3- or 4-year old brat that doesn't care about anything or anyone except herself and is mean to all people around her.

She has a weak King and Queen for parents and some servants but all these people are depicted as slaves who have no opinions about anything and solely exist to cater to the little girl.

The purpose of a kids' cartoon would be to teach the kids about real life and to have stories with morals and to teach about desirable behavior and how to recognize and deal with undesirable behaviors. This show does none of that - actually it actively encourages anti-social, mean behavior and the adult characters support this with their own behavior and speech.

The voice acting is atrocious: the voice of the little princess is worse that nails on a chalkboard and the rest of the voices are not too much better, either.

Watching the same kid movie over and over again can be mentally tiring for parents but this show stands out in how bad it is. Avoid this at all costs and make sure you prevent your kids from watching this trailer trash.

Little princess Is brilliant it's the only programme my little boy watches and he goes nuts for the theme tune. The actors who do the voices are what make it watchable for me and my wife, in particular Julian Clary Is hilarious. It's just a shame they haven't made more series as I seem to watch the same ones over and over again, a bit like faulty towers. I've seen some really negative reviews about the little princess but I think they must have a screw loose. I can't recommend this highly enough.

Brilliant animation. Gobsmacked by some of these reviews. If you are familiar with young children and can relate to their view of the world you will find this hilarious and recognise all of the challenging scenarios and reactions of the young princess, who can be quite a handful but is ultimately adorable! Brilliantly and hilariously voiced by our amazing Jane Horrocks. I could not imagine any other dubbed version coming close to the performances of this talented british line up.My ChIldren have all loved it over the years and my 5 year old has just discovered it and laughs out loud throughout. Julian Clary is a wonderful narrator and it's a joy for young and old. Of course the characters are exaggerated and larger than life, it's a cartoon!!!?

I fall asleep to this every night, I know this might seem odd but I choose this show to fall asleep to out of every other show. As you can see my grammar is exquisite so you should assume I am over 11. (Which I am, I am 15) Talking about the actual show...it's trash. So the main character (The Little Princess) is an annoying little brat! I now this is non-fiction but this is an extremely bad influence to younger children! There is no moral to the stories that are being told. All the plots are the same, The Little Princess wants or doesn't want something and in the end, they're all happy and the princess gets what she wants. There are also some pretty dumb characters, The General for example, thinks this wooden horse toy is real and makes horse sounds every time he runs. And The Queen is also a character, who is an obese woman who barely takes care of her child. She makes her child think that she is more valued than her daughter, The Princess. And the maid is just a bossy enslaved woman who is basically born to take care of The Princess. And The Prime Minister is also a character, who says kissing babies is part of his job...that's disgusting! And the gardener who has a strange addiction of green squash. So that's my review for this show, I know it was a little harsh but it had to be called out for. Thank you for reading this long review!

Little Princess is shown on Ch5's Milkshake in the mornings and keeps the little ones occupied at that busy time in the morning. There is now a DVD out which, as 'The Guardian' puts it "is a godsend to parents" and it is! The Tony Ross books are great but this series has built on the strong legacy and modernised this traditional cartoon. Jane Horrocks is the voice of Little Princess and is approachable, lovable and tempestuous. She plays her as a typical 4 year old who throws tantrums. The difference is that the strong unit of friends and family surrounding Little Princess teach her that tantrums aren't the answer and to look for alternative solutions. Many parents have succeeded in potty training by using Little Princess as well as getting them to eat food that they 'don't like'. Julian Clary as the narrator is an inspired choice, as his child like view of the world, indicated by his voice, makes him the ideal person for Little Princess to bounce ideas from. I, amongst many, hope that another series is commissioned.
