Bob the Builder

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.

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.

I never watched the first incarnation of Bob, but I have a two year old boy and he LOVES the 'new' rebooted Bob. The first two 'seasons' were great but after that they changed the models and made the show more 'slap stick' and we dislike those. You can see the seasons on Amazon, and the YouTube channel for the this Bob the Builder reboot only has the the 'good' episodes.

Most of the negative reviews seem to focus on how this show is different than the original. Yes, it's a reboot! We tried watching the older series but none of us like it; my son seems to dislike the models for the trucks (frankly, I think they look weird and creepy with their grinning grilles). I think that whether or not you watched the original absolutely affects how much you like the reboot.

The machines are sort of goofy - as an adult, you realise they are sort of children with different personalities and they are frankly naive and simple in the way they act. This is what kids need - actions and characters they can relate to on their level. The machines are often impulsive, but so are kids, and they can see the consequences. The lessons are gentle, like "don't hide things from your parents (Bob)". Not all machines are good at all jobs is another one, and teamwork can make a difference.

The music is good and the voice acting (British voices) is great! The American Bob doesn't do nearly as good of a job as the British one, FYI. The models aren't meant to be lifelike, and I think they are fine for what they are.

Mattel I hope you're doing terrible like stop ruining everyone's favourite tv shows like thomas or fireman Sam or that this year you are going to bring back Barney or Bob the builder or should I say bill the braker what's next roary the racing car like every episode it's the same thing every episode that one episode we're it talks about how Bob becomes a builder it is an old episode not to mention the looks of the building trucks and others construction vehicles are ugly as so Mattel the lesson that you learn is IF IT ANT BROKE DON'T FIX IT!!!! And if is broke DON'T FIX IT BRO DON'T FIX IT STOP.

The worst reboot ever made in 2015-2018, they even ruined the original Bob The Builder which is way better i never watched his movie called mega machines which is the worst movie from 2017 along with The Emoji Movie. I would rather watch The Ducktales reboot from 2017 better than this unnecesary reboot made by Mattel along with Thomas And Friends All Engines Go. I would prefer to watch The original Bob The Builder and Thomas And Friends better than this trash.
