Dorathen Better Late Then Never
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
TheLittleSongbird No, make that love it. I think before I under-estimated this show. True it's not for all, and it did strike me initially as a cheaply drawn unfunny show but actually for me Dave the Barbarian is the complete opposite. The colours mayn't be exactly plentiful, however Dave the Barbarian has quite a unique and wacky style of drawing which I like. The music, particularly the theme tune is memorable, the story lines have several moments of hilarity and the writing is off the wall and constantly very funny. I like the characters too, Dave himself is zany, but my favourites are Faffy and Lula. Candy can seem quite stereotypical, that in mind though she does do some very cool actions and moves. The voice acting isn't just an asset of the show, for me it is a big reason why the show works so well, all the voice actors bring a lot of energy into their characters and it comes through loud and clear. Overall, I love Dave the Barbarian. 9/10 Bethany Cox
fearfulofspiders Even for a children show, the comedy of Dave the Barbarian is so limited, uneven, and unfunny in-general, that it makes for one of the more disappointing series from the Disney Channel.The stories are okay, and the use of narration, as well as the concept of a cowardly barbarian are good ideas, just executed poorly. There's no laughs to come from anyone the age of eight-years-old or higher. Such an example would be failed randomness (along the lines of Family Guy, only not told in flashback, but in real-time).All in all, this is a show to plant your 4-year-old in front of. It's not deep, educational, and certainly not funny. I, myself, would only put this on when I was drawing or for some background noise, as it can make the time fly.
timmarshal My whole family loves this show, it has some real wit to it(sorry some are too dull to understand this) and lighthearted. It was with great sadness we realized it would not be renewed. It amazing how people complain about this show when such garbage is on TV now. Power Rangers? Wiskers and Brandy. Dancing with the Stars! And people insult this show.We love the show because it is so quirky. He is obviously not a barbarian, but the show is about comedy- and it excels! What is the crime- producing a show that all the family can like?If you don't like it, watch some of the other more vapid shows now available. The whole problem it that this is on Disney, if this was on Nick, it would be seen by many more and would have been renewed.
jayride4_jc This is an amazing cartoon! Having two kids and getting a healthy dose of animation daily, this is one of the most hilarious and entertaining cartoons out there. Not an adult theme, but quite a few quips that adults can appreciate, this show is truly wasted in its time slot. It belongs in Saturday morning or after-school in mass syndication. Each character fills a completely opposite role. Phobic brute, tiny horror, beauty queen, crazy wizard, lazy pet. It's been done before, but not with such pizazz. Even the "evil" characters are highly interesting. More than once I've been stuck in front of the TV at the worst times, unable to peel my eyes from the screen and a smile so big it hurts.
