Bob the Builder

Where do I even begin, this reboot is horrible. One of my biggest complaints is the changes to the character's personalities, they got rid of lofty's shy personality and replaced it with a normal personality, that shy personality was what made lofty lofty! Scoops personality was changed into a little kid, nothing like the original series, all the characters are now immature brats as well. I hate the new voice actors, they sound nothing like the characters in the original show. Let's not forget that Dizzy and Roley aren't main characters anymore and are now supporting characters that pop up once in a while, dizzy poured the cement and Roley rolled it, how do the buildings have floors! Dizzy and Roley are also excluded from the theme song, they are very important machines, they just had this stupid truck named two tonne take their place. I hate Leo, not because he's black, but because he's just generally a bad character. Then all of a sudden the animation turned cheap in season 3, the animation in season 3 looks like they ran out of money. Mattel ruined Bob the Builder, shame on them.

When Mattel purchased HIT entertainment, they pulled Thomas from PBS, and moved it to Nick Jr. After the creation of the CGI Bob flopped, the entire series was pulled from PBS. Qubo aired it during their final year of operation (each episode was 10 minutes instead of 30).

The original Bob was much better than the reboot. Mattel only made one season, then abandoned HIT entertainment's entire library completely.

There was supposed to be a reboot of Barney, but that hasn't happened yet.

Personally, I hope Bob, Barney, and Thomas are sold to another company so they can come back again.

Listen up, fellow construction enthusiasts! Buckle your tool belts and brace yourselves because I've got some choice words about that abomination called the "Bob the Builder" reboot from 2015. Grab a hard hat, because we're about to bulldoze through this mess!

Animation Catastrophe: Remember the cozy stop-motion animation from the original series? Well, the reboot chucked that out the window like yesterday's soggy sandwich. Instead, we got soulless CGI that felt like it was assembled by a malfunctioning robot. Where's the warmth? The tactile charm? It vanished faster than a misplaced hammer. Not to mention that this is from 2015 and even the animation of Jimmy Neutron looks better than this. When did Jimmy Neutron come out? 2001.

Character Makeovers Gone Wrong: Bob, Wendy, and the gang got facelifts that would make Picasso cringe. Seriously, they were redesigned beyond recognition. The original characters had personality-quirks, flaws, and all. But in the reboot, they're as bland as a plain bagel. Congrats, creators-you flanderized them into cardboard cutouts!

Paw Patrol Envy: Oh, they tried to ride the "Paw Patrol" wave. But guess what? Bob ain't no rescue pup. He's a builder, dammit! The reboot's desperate attempt to mimic the Paw Patrol animation style was like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. Newsflash: It didn't work. At all.

Charm? What Charm? The original series had heart. It taught us about teamwork, grit, and the joy of fixing stuff. But the reboot? It's like they tossed the charm manual into a bonfire. Maybe they thought charm was overrated. Well, guess what? Charm is the secret sauce, and they forgot to sprinkle it on their CGI disaster.

In conclusion, the "Bob the Builder" reboot was a wrecking ball to our childhood memories. It's time to grab our pitchforks (or maybe just our tiny plastic shovels) and demand justice. Bring back the stop-motion magic, restore the characters' souls, and for the love of all things construction-related, find that lost charm!

The OG show was alright, but this reboot is just nothing but a waste of 11 minutes and money. I begrudgingly binged all of Season 1 and it was awful it didn't even feel like the original at all, the reboot has dumb comedy, boring story's and set-ups, and lackluster music including the theme song. Mattel turned Bob the Builder into a snore-fest.

Where do I begin: o yes, the designs

• scoop has the same locomotion but feels extremely bendy somehow, unpleasant to look at
• muck is even clunkier than his stop motion version
• rolly is just more awkward to look at
• lofty lacks the expressions he's famous for
• dizzy lacks the energy but moves even more
• the humans look like they belong on attack on titan, with pure white, almost triangular looking teeth, microscopic eyes, and tacky looking skin (with the exception of Leo, due to the DARKNESS OF HIS SKIN preventing it from being an eyesore. It's very concerning when this is the case)

Now for their personality:

• the machines are absolute BAFOONS
• lofty goes from nervous to cringey
• Bob seems addicted to schedules
• the rest of the cast are self absorbed brats, refusing to pay the crew, even though they often RISK THEIR LIVES for the sake of production

The story of every episode feels boring, even if the idea is unique (which it very rarely is) Mattel screwed up with this one. Fireman Sam is ok, spawning some average movies, whereas Thomas and friends is tolerable compared to what they latter decided to do to it (oh god I'd give that -5 starts) I'd give this -3 stars if I could.
