I am in my 30's, but I am not embarrassed to admit that I really enjoy watching the occasional "children's show". (Especially now that I am a proud aunt of a very smart toddler) Jack's Big Music Show is one of the best children's shows I have seen!! It is very entertaining and the music is great. I love how it mixes segments of music videos into the show.(Some of the songs stay with you for days! I haven't been able to get "Under a Shady Tree" out of my head for a week now ... but that isn't such a bad thing!) I also really enjoy some of the characters that I have seen so far on the show. Like the LITTLE Bad Wolf (BIG Bad's baby brother) and who can not smile over the Schwartzman Cortet!!
Hardcore children's show fans may recognize the voices. The voice of Jack is also the voice of Baby Bear on Sesame Street and Mary was the voice of Julie and Sizzle the Cat on Puzzle Place. (I had to come on to IMDb to find that out because it was driving me crazy! The voices were so familiar!!) If you are a Muppet Fan and a music lover, you just might enjoy this show ... no matter how old you are. BUT I Guarantee THE CHILDREN WILL LOVE IT!!!
I am editing this comment because since I have submitted it, I have read some things about this show that I want to address:
Although I made the comment that adults will love this show, we have to remember that THIS SHOW IS INTENDED FOR PRESCHOOLERS. I have read comments that go as far as complaining about the music on the show saying, "The music is frenetic and emphasizes rhythm over tune and lyricism" ... Does this person even KNOW a preschooler??!! When is the last time you heard your 3 year old comment about a song's lyrics? (Unbelievable!)
My opinion is my opinion and I can't convince anyone to like something they don't - but it is just not fair to compare a show for children to that of adults. But I happen to know that I am not the ONLY adult who feels like a good children's show is worth it's weight in gold ...
This show is really good!!
