Timmy Time

I recently watched some episodes of Timmy Time, and I have to say, it's a pretty charming little show. It's aimed at preschoolers and follows Timmy, a young lamb, as he navigates life at a nursery with his friends. The animation is cute and colorful, which is always a big hit with kids.

What I appreciate most is the simple storylines that usually revolve around themes like friendship, sharing, and problem-solving. It's nice to see a show that teaches valuable lessons without being too heavy-handed about it. The characters are endearing, and there's a good mix of humor that can keep both kids and adults entertained, even if it's quite simplistic.

However, I think it could be a bit repetitive after a while. The episodes tend to follow a similar pattern, which might not hold the attention of older kids for long. Still, for its target audience, I believe it does its job well.

Overall, I'd rate Timmy Time a solid 7 out of 10. It's enjoyable and wholesome, though it might lack some depth for those looking for more variety. Perfect for little ones, but perhaps not something that will keep parents on the edge of their seats.

In the vast wasteland of trite garbage that is children's' programming this is a brilliant gem of a show. If we've been watching TV for more than an hour when this show comes on I'm probably more excited by it than my little girl.

Without a word of dialogue (ever!) the show imparts a rich narrative to which any kid, or any adult who remembers what it is to be a kid, can relate.

This show, more than any other, holds the key to good children's' programming: engage the children without driving the parents insane. This show is as fun for me as it is for my daughter.

Timmy Time is my favourite toddlers show ever and I only started watching it when I was 18. to triumph over my actual childhood favourites is quite a feat but Timmy truly does deserve it.

Firstly Timmy himself is almost offensively adorable in whatever he is doing. My personal favourite is his shocked face. The array of characters that he goes to nursery with are truly lifelike in their different personalities; you have the laid back badger, annoying, anal Mittens the cat and the seemingly schizophrenic Otis the owl with his weird puppet friend.

Secondly and more importantly, the story lines are really beautiful and simple in a parable-like way. Best examples of this would be episodes like Timmy's Tractor or Timmy Wants to Win. It teaches kids, without being preachy, that if you show kindness to others that's what you'll get in return and that friendship is more important winning. Some of the episodes are more whimsical but you will never be bored with the endless supply of hilarious sounds and facial expressions these creatures can make. The stop motion is PERFECTION as is everything Aardman seems to touch.

You'll enjoy it whatever age you are because it is just damn good storytelling.

It also has a BLOODY BRILLIANT theme tune. Now go watch it.

Spin-off of the OG shaun the sheep series, mainly focusing on timmy's playtime at his kindergarten. Animation style same as in the shaun the sheep, they maintain the same country farm-esque sound scores and animal voice gimmicks which i adore. Very cute characterisation and loving the playful bright tone of this show. Very child friendly, even me as an adult found this entertaining. Each episodes have 2 parts. Have many characters but not all of them appears on the same episode at the same time. Great details and have high rewatchable value. Watching this brought me some great memories of my childhood. Highly recommended.

The first time I saw this show, I wasn't very impressed. My little boy is 2 years old and just love's this Shaun the Sheep spin-off. Where Shaun the Sheep is good for laughs, even for adults... Timmy Time revolves around Shaun's little nephew Timmy, who's going to pre school for the first time - good fun for kids from 2-4.

Timmy has quiet a few friends in school; Ruffy the dog, Stripey the badger, Paxton the pig, Finlay the fox, Yabba the duck, Otus the owl, Mittens the cat, Apricot the hedgehog and Kid the donkey. I wonder if Ruffy the dog is family of Blitzer & Paxton is family of those 3 naughty pigs.

The stop-motion animating is done very nicely, even in small detail.
