    This show was amazing!

    I remember watching it all the time when I was a kid. It really would peak your curiousity about the world and nature, and helped you be more conscious of your affect on the planet and the animals around you. This show is one of the best kid's shows I've ever watched. The gnomes promote peaceful and calm demeanors and they demonstrated fantastic morals. It sparked so much creativity in my life, I would even draw pictures of the gnomes and the animals all the time . This show is probably the first show I would recommend to any parents looking for shows for their kids to watch.

    A great adventure that's about life!

    I used to watch this show on Nickelodeon all the time. It presents the lives of the gnomes very well, and I enjoy seeing their adventures as they contend with trolls. It works very well to explain life's details and Swift always is a great form of transportation. I'd love to have a home like theirs. It's small and yet very useful.

    This was an awesome show back before there was Blues Clues

    David The Gnome / Secret World Of The Gnomes was an awesome show. I watched this stuff even when I was older. I was born in 81. I grew up on stuff like Knight Rider and ThunderCats and HeMan. But on snow days or sick days away from school I would sit around and watch Nick Junior. I was probably around 13 but so what. I loved this type of stuff. Maya The Bee, The Little Bits, The Noozles (Dot and The Koala), The Adventures of the Little Koala, Hello Kitty, Pinwheel, Nick Junior's Animated Fairy Tales ( Happily Ever After)and other stuff I can barely remember but it brings back memories. But now everything is all working on comercialization and merchandising. Blues Clues, Dora The Explorer. And then you're kid wants the merchandise.. Yeesh. I miss those good ole days of Nick... I miss these good shows. I miss being younger.. I'm 20 years old and I feel like I'm 50. The 80's are coming back.. Every song I know is being sold in a collection on an Infomercial. And none of the shows I remember are still on... I miss Sonic The Hedgehog! And not that Toon Disney stuff I mean the one that actually had decent PLOTS!.

    Good show

    I used to watch this show when I was a little girl. I only remember it vaguely, though. If you ask me, it was a good show. I remember the opening sequence and theme song vaguely, too. In addition to that, everyone was ideally cast. Also, the writing was very strong. The performances were top-grade, too. I hope some network brings it back so I can see every episode. Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say that I'll always remember this show in my memory forever, even though I don't think I've seen every episode. Now, in conclusion, if some network ever brings it back, I hope that you catch it one day before it goes off the air for good.

    Great!

    I watch this show when I was little on 'kindernet' its a great show because you also learn things about life and respect other creatures David always helping other people or animals in the forest when they need help.

    They story is about the gnomes that live in a forest. They are friends with the animals and nature. Wherever they are in the forest, they are in danger of the mean trolls who are always trying to capture them.

    The fox 'swift' is also fantastic, and also lisa david wife. And they live in a really warmly homey home I want to leave there! one of my favourite animation shows beside 'the simpsons' I give it a 8.7/10

    • Quotes

      Narrator: Look around you. There are many things to see, that some would say could never be. These things I know. It's true and I will tell you so. They are there to see, if you believe. Trolls and wizards and fairy kings, birds that talk and fish that sing. And if your heart is true, then you will find them, too. In every wish and dream and happy home, you will find a kingdom of the Gnomes.
