    It's hit or miss for me

    The first two seasons were awesome. The music is good, the voice actors did a good job. Then we get into season three. However, the music doesn't change, they had to replace the old actors with new ones although some of the main characters actors are pretty cute and some are decent. Then season 4, there are no more scenes of the busses doing their work. More adventures less work, I liked when they did work! And season 5 was the worst of all! The voice actors are sooooooooo annoying! And to make matters worse, this show is getting a sixth season which will suck as well. Also they say Huh, what, and hmm a lot in the modern seasons which is annoying. So if your going to watch this show then I recommend watching the first 3 or 4 Seasons and not 5 and 6.

    Season 1: 9/10 Season 2: 10/10 Season 3: 8.4/10 Season 4: 7.6/10 Season 5: 2.3/10 Season 6: 1.8/10

    That's my review on this show. Also this show is Korean and not Japanese.

    Sometimes annoying but my kiddo loves it

    My 3 year old loves buses so this show is great for him. Some of the plot lines and characters are silly but it's not so horrible that I can't sit through it. The theme song is catchy and always playing in my head.

    Hit or miss

    The first two seasons of the show are excellent, light-hearted warm entertainment with solid episodes! Then the 3rd season came and whilst there were some good episodes, it was fairly hit or miss overall. The production quality went down, the voice actors were pretty bad, the music didn't change much.

    Then we get to the fourth season and OH WOW, do things start to go downhill. The production quality is much worse, the buses no longer do their work, the now poorly executed fantasy element increases when that wasnt the shows main focus (what happened to a bunch of cartoony buses doing their work?), the characters don't seem to grow very much. And this continues to the fhith season where it gets worse!

    Overall, Tayo started out as a strong show, but went downhill rapidly and overstayed it's welcome. If you're going to watch the show, watch season 1 and 2. Skip season 4 and 5 please!

    Lacks originality. No good comes from it

    Unfortunately my son loves the show and won't let go of it.. the characters are really annoying, the plot line silly and stupid. Absolutely lacks character and originality.. also the characters seem to not get things easily and are too slow for even avarage standards.. while they teach some good values, the characters always lack in self confidence. The kids are more likely to learn from the characters rather than the lessons. So the makers should have known that but I wouldn't expect that wisdom from them.

    Cute show, lighten up a bit!

    This show is so cute. Kind of annoying at times though I'll admit.. Why are parents so upset about farting? Jfc. Prudes. Everybody farts! Also the show is South Korean not Japanese. How would you know the translation of the words if you don't even know what language you're translating from?
