The Mr. Men Show

The Mr. Men Show was a short lived cartoon mostly shown on Boomerang. The show was essentially made up of one dimensional characters and simple personalities.

For Example characters like Miss Sunshine or Mr. Grumpy.

Very easy to follow and just mindless fun.

I equate it to a modern day Smurfs.

...seriously The Mr Men Show is really not a bad show. It is cute, charming, funny and appealing. Even if the first couple of episodes were a little slow, it got better. I can also say that in my opinion that there are a lot worse animated shows out there, some are terrible, some started off good but are now mediocre. This isn't terrible or mediocre in my opinion that is. I grew up on the books and I still like them very much, and I think the show does a good job sticking to the spirit of the books if not always in the details. The animation is bright and colourful, and one reviewer is right that it is like Charlie Brown, which has a wonderful animation style. The music is a pleasant surprise, not beeny-boppish, grating or anything, it is simple and memorable for kids. The story lines are fun and appealing and teach some subtle messages without preaching, as are the characters. The voice acting I think is fine, I am not even going to start dwelling on the accents issue as I for one didn't have a problem with it. Overall, an underrated and fun show, certainly not as bad as the negative reviews or the rating on here say.- that is of course my opinion, which you are fine with disagree with. 9/10 Bethany Cox

Ignore the review bombing over the accents. The complaints about the "defamatory" accents are unwarranted and stupid. If you watch the original UK version, just about every character in this show has a silly accent. If you are that concerned about how a kids' show cartoon character sounds, especially if they are meant to be silly, then you need to get a life.

In no way does the show intend to perpetuate negative stereotypes with the voices that it uses. If this were the case, then the targeted characters would be defamed and pointed out for what specific accent they had.

This negative press reminds me a lot of The Problem With Apu situation. Apu may have a silly voice, but so does just about every other character in The Simpsons. The point of both of these cartoons is to make fun of ourselves, not to try and hurt someone or their culture.

Beyond this stupid complaint that I keep seeing in these reviews, the show is awesome. For one, the intro itself is top notch. It's still stuck in my head to this day, and every character is perfectly suited for the entire 45 seconds.

Another thing that I love is the relatability of these characters. They may be simple, but their personalities mesh perfectly with what I go through in my daily life.

In addition, this show is very faithful to the original source material. Just like the books, the character designs are fun, creative, and expressive in just about every shot.

For anyone who loves the book series, this show is a must watch.

My family loves this show! And with new characters in the 2nd season it just got better! Myself, my wife, and our son find it cute & funny! The colors & voices are great! I hope they keep adding new characters & they should do holiday specials with special new characters! We find it entertaining & it reminds me of the old books & things from when I was a kid! Its also good to see more merchandise coming out for the show! Hopefully happy meal toys will come soon! The interactions between the characters are always good and the little themes for the segments are cool. And its good to see its got a new afternoon time slot so more people can catch it on!

I just love the new "Mr. Men Show". Why did it take them so long to bring this back? I have all the books from when I was little. It is wonderful to see all the characters come to life. Miss Naughty was always my favorite as a kid and she is so fun on the show. I can't wait to see what she will get into next! I also love Mr Messy. The animation is really interesting and gives the feel of the flatness in the old books, but with a lot more color. I also like the website. It's a fun place to go with kids because you can click on each character and hear their voices and see individual videos. I wish I could find more Mr. Men toys out there. I have this old Miss Naughty sticker on a journal that brings back such great memories. Oh well, I love the show! Keep up the good work!
