Heidi

This series wasn't meant for us - we're a couple of 60-year-olds. But we find it utterly charming and don't want to miss any episode.

I grown up watching Disneys cartoons in th 90s. I live in India, now most cartoons shown here are created in India which are too bad. My brothers daughter is 5 years old even she is not interested in idiotic indian cartoons. Thanks to kochu TV to telecast this cartoon. Its is telecasted as lily in malayalam. She watches it every day. Even I watch this cartoon.

This show is generally safe or family viewing, but note that profanity is introduced starting at episode 58 (if nor before), wit several "Dammit!" curses by several characters.

When the first season came out, it was a great series. Even my teenage grandaughter loved it. Unfortunately, in the second season, the voices are all different and they don't even remotely match the original voices. They are terrible. I couldn't even get through the whole season. Also, compared to the first season, the episode stories are not as good, at least in my opinion. If the makers of the show had put some more effort into thinking this through, I think they might have tried to better match the voices. Heidi, alone, sounds like a chipmunk. I will still enjoy the first season and just skip the second season. My grandaughter has watched it several times and I believe she will watch again.

I can not fault this show. It's a beautiful story that adults can enjoy too. It's a nice change from the over-the-top shows that are on TV for kids these days. It teaches values and kindness and also encourages adventure and curiosity. It has a nice, calming quality that is great for just before naps too.
