The Adventures of Paddington

This programme is amazing! We've been watching the episodes again and again and again! He's the kindest, goofiest, clumsiest, most polite, caring, cute little bear!

I've been watching the series on Nick Jr and I think this new series is decently enjoyable it's good nice humour and a great impressive style of cgi animation.

However it's not as charming as the first 2 movies were or even the 1975-1980 tv series because I find this to be more aimed towards younger children than something the whole children can enjoy. But it's definitely better than shows such as Peppa Pig, Paw Patrol or the newer Thomas and Friends: BWBA series.... Overall 6/10.

This show is delectable, but sometimes I get bored of visually examining it. This show could utilize some surprises in the exhibition or shocking things to spice things up because it's kind of bland, but overall it's authentically great and enjoyable!

I enjoyed watching this with my little one as the animation is nice and quaint, it's also more realistic in terms of London life than the films too. The stories are sweet as well, innocent and fun.

Of course it HAS to be PC so there is one character (just one mind you!) from different ethnic groups and one child is disabled. So obvious but that's not an issue.

What makes the cartoon annoying is the main character: Paddington is 50 times more annoying than any other character, everything he does makes me want to turn the tv off. I know it's meant to be lighthearted and fun but he's just so....irritating!

The show feels like it's trying too hard to tick every diversity box rather than letting the story unfold naturally. Almost every racial, cultural, and social stereotype has been crammed in, and instead of adding depth, it comes across as forced and distracting. Representation works best when it's authentic and organic, but here it feels like the writers were more focused on making a statement than building believable characters. The result is a show that sacrifices realism and flow for the sake of inclusivity, which ultimately weakens the overall experience.
