You might be wondering firstly about my review title. Well I don't often give shows / episodes a perfect 10/10 and I previously gave a 10/10 to one show but now you can make it two because I just remembered this wonderful and amazing children's show.So as a kid, I watched many shows with this being one of my favourites. Now as a 16 year old when writing this review, I'm not surprised to be honest, I still love the show to this day. All of the reviews on this seem to agree that it's an amazing children's show whilst the overall rating of 6.9/10 is kind of contradicting the reviews and is confusing.Anyway, enough of that and on to the actual show on why it's so amazing. Each episode is about teaches the children certain lessons like responsibility, friendship etc. But that might sound like an average children's show right now to you reading this 'cause the average children's show should teach kids lessons. Bear in the Big Blue House does it in such a way that it entertains kids with catchy songs to play along and of course some running gags like Shadow, Ray or Luna. The most memorable moment of any episode for me is the Luna and Bear singing the Goodbye Song segment at the end. I remember very, very well that my nanny and I sung this song all the time together and whenever I think of it these days or listen to it, I cry my tears out as the nostalgia really kills me. Where this show went I will never know. Just like many classic children shows, sadly they get washed away by new series or reruns of terrible shows which should not be the case. I'm glad that I was a kid when this was running on air, so sorry to children now watching today's crappy TV shows.It is also a very pleasant show for the child's family to watch with him / her unlike something like Dora the Explorer. Do I recommend this show? Of course, I most certainly do recommend this amazing children's show.

Bear In The Big Blue House never failed to entertain me over and over as a youngster. At times I would even watch it while eating breakfast. Each episode focuses on a particular theme such as using the senses, the seasons, and even toilet training. In fact, I think that if it wasn't for the "potty" episode I would still be in diapers (I was fairly stubborn on the issue). Bear acts like a father/older brother figure to Tutter the mouse, Ojo the small bear, Treelo the lemur, and Pip and Pop the twin otters. There are also two other regular characters called Shadow (the outline of a little girl with pigtails) and Luna (the moon). Ray (the sun) also makes occasional appearances. All of these great characters have really appealing designs. Bear is a mix of brown and orange, Ojo is red, Treelo is green with blue ears and tail, Tutter is blue, and Pip and Pop are purple. As a kid and an adult I'm always enchanted by this literal rainbow of characters and I think any young child would be. If I had to pick a favourite it would be Treelo. Another thing that I absolutely adore is the songs, especially the "bear chachacha". This is a show every child should see.

I've watched BITBBH quite a few times with my 3 and 6 year old. Although it's my 3 year old who enjoys it the most. I find the story lines well conceived and the dialogue between the characters always on a positive side(no insults at each other under the guise of humor).The thing I most enjoy with this show has been the musical numbers. I remember in particular a song that Bear did on "finding a lost thing." This stands out because Noel McNeal, who plays Bear can really belt out a tune. I find myself watching the show with my kids just to hear him sing songs.But at the same time I feel good that this show also contains a strong emphasis on teaching children worthwhile life lessons on subjects like being a good friend, potty training, conquering fears and asking for help.I recommend watching this show because it's easy as an adult to handle watching this at the same time as my kids do and me gives plenty of opportunities to share comments with them as the story lessons unfold.

My children love this show!(2 & 1 years old) They get a thrill watching this show. I enjoy this show also. It is much better then those 'Teletubbies'. You can understand everything that is said.Way to go Brian Henson!!!! Good job!!! Your dad would be proud of you. My favorite characters on this show has to be Pip and Pop. They are so funny.I haven't seen such good television shows since Sesame Street and The Electric Company!!!!
