Summary: Simply the best children's show ever made.
Comment: I am nearing the end of high school and I have teenage tastes, yet there is something about Theodore Tugboat that is just very warm and funny. The tugboats are perfect for infants as eye candy, and then as the young ones grow a little older, they can understand the profound and heart-warming lessons provided by the tugboats.Especially good is the rewatchability of all these episodes. Naturally, any parent who gets Theodore Tugboat for their child will end up watching them hundreds of times, yet they never get old! Unlike some of the soulless, commercial kid's stuff that T.V. has grinded out in recent years, Theodore Tugboat is a frank and uplifting show, full of life lessons while also being incredibly entertaining.

Summary: A Little on the Scary Side
Comment: My boys, 3 years and 20 months, love watching Theodore. However, I think parents should be aware that this video contains a story that might be a little scary for pre-schoolers. The first story has a Bermuda Trianglesque theme, where boats are known to disappear, complete with music that reflects tension and suspense and some talking rocks that my 3 year-old finds particularly disturbing. He insists that we fast-forward through the first story every time we watch the video. I'm not sure why anyone would make frigtening stories/videos geared toward pre-schoolers. Perhaps older children wouldn't mind.
