The Astronauts

The Astronauts is novel and captivating for a Nickelodeon audience, say ages 6 to 12. Together with Mom and/or Dad it likely makes a bonding entertainment experience. But if watching solely as an adult, depending on your frame of mind it could be quite cheesy.

Nonetheless, I feel this show gives Nickelodeon prime credit for helping bring kids into a more responsible age.

It is a kid's movie, and a very decent one. It was never meant to be a blockbuster but an entertainment show. It ticks all the boxes in my view, as long as you get your expectations straight. If you look at it as a space parody, it is one of the best.

This reminds me a lot for some reason of the really good Nickelodeon shows of the 90's that told a story like The Secret World of Alex Mack and AYAOTD for example. Maybe that's just me. But it's really a good show and one of the best that Nickelodeon has had in a while IMO. My entire family sits down to watch it.

I had no idea what i was getting into when i saw the title, "The Astronauts," but anything about space travel is going to catch my attention.When i saw it was a Nickelodeon show, I was very much prepared for possible over acting and maybe sickeningly too cute kids. That isn't what I got. What I got was an intriguing, but simple premise with a great twist. I was hooked from the first episode. I like that the kids are having to question their parents and not for just rebellious reasons. I can't wait for new episodes next week. Definitely worth your time. I'm in my 50's, btw.

I saw this advertising for a while and had no interest as I thought it would be some small production kiddy show. It ended up premiering while I was cleaning and I started glancing at the show here and there.

10 minutes into the show I was hooked! I didn't even realize I stopped cleaning and was sitting down watching the show until almost 30 mins later.

The shows is amazing quality!!!!! HBO production quality. I was surprised. The acting and cast is really great so far. There is a great story line with a small twist I didn't see happening. It's definitely not a kiddy show. The only criticism I have is that the parents really under reacted when it came to their kids getting shot up into space. I made my 30 year old bf watch it and he enjoyed it as well! We can't wait for the other episodes!

Nickelodeon's last great show was Avatar the last air bender. I hope this show gives Avatar a run for its money! So far so good!!
