Rabbids Invasion

The idea was wonderful. Slapstick a six year old can understand and have fun. Also the short clips were universal as there was no speech. Only the grunts of the rabbits/rabbids. Nothing special, but different than the regular humor clip. Naturally I was quite curios about the series. Yet something changed. A lot. The short, funny clips were replaced by longer less funny clips. Somebody must have hated the rabbits/rabbids. The universality of the slapstick humor is replaced by stupid pointless dialogue that is necessary for the let's call it plot. And while the rabbits/rabbids were funny as design, humans look like crap. Back in the days when computer generated animation was new, that was acceptable. But Pixar and the others have raised the bar a lot. But the intern hiring bureaucrat in charge of this series stands behind the bad choices. So you see a lot of the same three ugly human models. Blah!

First, my family is a big fan of the games. The first and second Rabbids game were total comedy gold, from flinging spit balls at teacher to fart wars across the desert, the game kept my family laughing over multiple plays. The games use a crude and non-verbal humor not appealing to many, but the slapstick quality was genius to me.

The episodes follow in this trend. The designers offer a limited number of settings - the testing lab, the grocery store, the beach, a farm - and most rabbids look just alike. They are mildly malicious, selfish, rude, but I see nods to Loony Toons classic comedy set ups all through the writing and design. I particularly appreciate how all other, non rabbid, characters either ignore the creatures or push them aside, and the rabbids save most of their mischief for each other.

For those who feel this is not appropriate for children - I think you sell children short. So often, books and cartoons showing childlike creatures behaving badly serve children as examples of what they should NOT do. We were reading Shel Silverstein's ABZ book to our son at a young age, and it's filled with examples of bad behavior, all of which he could identify as naughty and none of which he emulated. I can't imagine children would be so facile and dim as to attempt to reproduce rabbid behavior any more than they would recreate the actions of the Three Stooges. It's the same stuff, just packaged differently.

You have to think of rabbids as being like toddlers on their own in the world. Everything is marvelous to them - an empty box, an escalator or elevator, a fly or flea - and they explore their world with hilarious results. Children can understand and respond positively to this approach, and it never preaches or treats them as idiots. Make up your own mind - episodes can be found on YouTube.

I love the rabbids form go home to kingdom battle why oh why nick why you cancelled it oh wait it went to pop then got cancelled but still why they where hilarious.

This show is for kids, and as for such, it is not meant to teach them anything. Its meant to be pure slapstick comedy which is supposed to make kids laugh.

And for most of the time the mischief the Rabbids do is really funny and entertaining. Sure, there are parts where the humor is kind of forced and you could almost say that you laugh out of politeness. But then this is outhweighted by those really dumb Rabbids making so funny things that you wet your pants.

So if you as parent want to only give to your kids only shows which have an educational value, steer away from Rabbids invasion. If you want to have some fun, give it a go.

I don't care what you haters think, I find this show awesome, or should I say, DAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHsome! This DAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHsome show reminds me of the Minions from Despicable Me, but they're the same amount of hilarious. I loved that episode where a Rabbid got locked in a hotel. He was screaming for the other Rabbids to get him outta the hotel. My all-time favorite episode was where the Rabbids were partying. I also loved the theme song, the silhouettes of the Rabbids running and screaming reminds me of Back at the Barnyard, another funny show that I dunno why people hate it. I dunno why show gets hated too, and why its rating fell from 7.2/10 (Yup, this show DID have 7.2/10 as its highest) to 6.3/10 (At least it's at 6.5/10 now) is something I also don't understand. I now see why people like this DAAAAAHHHHHHHHHsome show, because it's funny, hilarious, and once again, DAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHsome with all the Rabbids screaming like crazy and it makes me and my friends scream crazy like them when we watch it together! 8/10 for this DAAAAAAHHHHHHHsome show!

As of May 30, 2015, we're down to 6/10! I'm really sad to see the rating fall lower. I haven't been on for a long time because my laptop broke after I accidentally dropped it on a hard floor in February (I'm using my friend's laptop at McDonald's) and I'm not allowed to use my sister's computer. One question about the rating drop, is it a spambot making the rating fall? Whatever it is, it's gotta stop. I was right about the other spambots. I'm just letting you know that I'm not dead, but I'm really upset to see the ratings of this, Uncle Grandpa, and Sonic Boom falling. The Mr. Men Show's rating hasn't been falling much, but I'm over trying to ban the haters of it and accepted that people are entitled to what they like or dislike. Hopefully some people who hate this show can learn that, too.
