The Healing Powers of Dude

This is a wonderful family show! It tackles great subjects like social challenges, bullying, standing up for yourself, perseverance, kindness, friendship and learning that differences are just differences and we are all valuable people.

The parents, of course, are made out to be a little obnoxious (probably the kids' views), but they are very loving and supportive. All of the characters have fun personalities and the kids are all great actors and very talented. The friend, Simon and the little sister are very funny!

Just a side note: Emotional Support Animals do not have legal public access rights like Service Dogs do. However, I am sure some schools make an acception. 😁

Watch the show! We had the most incredible time creating this series. Everyone from the producers, to the camera operators, to the directors, to the background actors, to the actors- everyone involved. We all worked so hard to create a story that would speak to the viewers and address a hard subject in a sensitive and uplifting way. We hope you love watching the show as much as we loved creating it for you.

I loved it! I also have social anxiety, not to the extent the character has but I really related to it. The way they portray this disorder might be exaggerated, but I actually liked that, because anxiety is overwhelming and you can see that through the exaggeration. It made me laugh and it also made me tear up. I really liked how they integrated the dog, how he could understand Noah and see what Noah was imagining. I found it to be a great show! I'm waiting for season two now!!

I really love this show - It is REALLY cute but also very funny. How refreshing it is to watch a family show & remain engaged with the story - EXCELLENT writing with very talented young stars. I love the diverse cast - & especially that it includes a handicapped character who is so witty. The voice of the little dog - Dude - is soooo perfect & hysterical! The dog is a terrific actor as well. Very enjoyable, wholesome entertainment. Thank you!

I see some bad reviews and i think it's very important to remember that this show was made for kids. The way Noah's social anxiety is portrayed is exaggerated so that kids can empathize more with it. I personal have social anxiety and i was watching along with my little sister. I immediately thought "wow if this show was around 10 years ago my life would've been so much easier". It's so nice to see representation and mental health issues explained to kids in a subtle and enjoyable way.
