Goldie and Bear

Our 4 yr old downs daughter got us connected to this cartoon and now the whole family can't get enough. We've watched every episode many times and still love it. The animation, music, and life lesson stories are all top notch. We also appreciate that the darker characters aren't super evil like in most cartoons / kids movies. We love it... thank you for this quality production.

After famous fairy tales are written and adapted into many books, someone who likes those stories would combine them into one. That is the case of Goldie and Bear as it features characters from many well-known stories.

When I saw ads for this show as well as seeing a few episodes, I was initially entertained. The graphics are quite colorful, and the way the characters are drawn are similar to what I see in children's story books.

I do adore the characters in the show, especially Goldie. I like her trademarked hair, her blue dress, and best of all her cute pink mary janes. All the other characters are perfect, although the boy bear in a beige shirt with green sleeves could use a child actor to do his dialog.

I for one enjoy stuff that colorful, cutesy, and light-hearted. I would at times imagine them, and even draw pictures of them. While Goldie and Bear is also colorful, cutesy, and light- hearted, I can't say that I embrace the show. Before we get to that, let's have a brief overview.

In the original Goldilocks story, Goldilocks (a.k.a. Goldie) intrudes the bears' home, eats their food, sat on their furniture, and slept on their beds. While she is sleeping, the bears return and confront her in bed. When she woke up and noticed their presence, she frightenedly flees the house.

But in this show which has an alternate storyline, the bears forgave and befriended Goldie. The young bear went on to become her best friend.

Besides featuring Goldie and the three bears, characters from various fairy tales (such as The Little Pigs and Little Red Riding Hood) are added to the cast.

Yes, the show is a great package of color, cuteness, and light-heartedness. There's even some music sequences. But again, I can't say that I embrace it. I wonder why? Perhaps the one flaw lies in the young bear. The things that fly from his mouth to touch the ears of the viewers, it should be done by someone from the blue zone, not the pink zone.

This show is very fun to watch. Goldie and Bear go on exciting adventures with characters that you will recognize from your own childhood fairytales. This show is easy to follow and the storylines are fun to follow. The songs are very catchy and fun to sing! It's a great twist on classic characters.

Goldie and Bear is a great animated series about a friendship between Goldilocks and one of the brown bears. You'll see the big bad wolf, Humpty Dumpty, jack and Jill, mother goose and just about anybody else in the fairytale world. Awesome cast of voices and great songs. Our toddler sings along to the songs, yes suspenseful in the action scenes and shows compassion in the heartfelt moments. It's a full bodied quality cartoon that even we enjoy as adults. Our baby has watched the same episodes what seems to be hundreds of times and we still don't mind (unlike with half the junk on TV these days). Great show we hope to own on DVD if possible.
