Boo! Is a show from Tweenies creators Iain Lauchlan and Will Brenton, and centres around a game that's basically hide-and-seek in all but name.
The main character is the centric Boo!, a stripy/purple pear-shaped creature with orange tufts of hair, green and purple arms, and fancy shoes. He doesn't speak or have any sign of a distinctive personality, but he does have the ability to adapt to the environments or wear fancy costumes. In every episode, the aim is to try and find him while learning about the environments along the way. This is one of the main aims of the show, in order to learn about places you may have never been to before.
Boo's friends, who do speak, have distinctive personalities. Growling Tiger (Voiced by Justin Fletcher), Sleeping Bear (Also voiced by Justin Fletcher), and Laughing Duck (voiced by Kate Harbour).
In every episode, there are several other one-off characters (eg, humans, mammals, etc.) who can be found as well, normally having their jobs rhyming with their personality.
The animation for the series is... hit-and-miss. The cel-shaded CGI has not aged very well and makes some of the renders drift away into the uncanny valley, especially the human characters.
The songs that play in every episode are quite the catchy numbers, sung by trombonist Ashley Slater and Holby City cast member Sharon D. Clarke. They are also the narrators in addition to the children, who mostly narrate the action.
The series is a "formulaic" series as well, but it works well on that genre. Mainly because it's written to be as interesting as possible, seeing what's going on around the world.
Overall, I don't have any other flaws to say about this show other than the outdated animation and the fact the series. It gets a 7/10 from me.
