In case you're wondering, the title of my review comes from the catchphrase (hello friend) of the title character of this wonderful show, because if I were to describe Little Bill in one word it would be wonderful. Everything is simply wonderful, including the felt-like animation and the truly adorable story lines. I especially like Little Bill's relationship with his grandmother, who he calls Alice the Great. In fact, Bill has many great people in his life, including his parents, Alice the Great, his brother Bobby and sister April, his teacher, his friends Andrew, Monty, Kiku, and Fuschia, his neighbours, and his hamster named Elephant. Another thing that I really like is Bill's voice, he really sounds like a little boy, and he truly is a sweet child and a relatable one as well. While watching this growing up and even watching today, I'm able to relate to Little Bill experiencing such things as swinging, having snacks and being a snack helper at school, having playdates, and learning to read, and have memories of doing such things myself. There is just so much to like about this show, it simply radiates pure innocence. So check it out friend, if you haven't already.
... View MoreLittle Bill is a TV show created by the best man named Bill Cosby. Kiku and Fuschia are my favorite characters, and their voices are so cute, i would want to befriend them. good job, Nickelodeon, now do us all a big favor, and make us a Little Bill fans a spin off featuring Kiku, Fuschia, and Andrew as the main characters themselves, with surprising cameos and brief appearances of little Bill and his family. On the meanest thing to say, little Bill and his friends play pirate, and little Bill became insulted by a boy. well, it is still not nice to say mean things. on copy cat, little Bill and Andrew were having anger issues about copying each other. Copycatting other people is still not a good thing, but always to tell an adult if you see a copycat in action :D. but, on all together now, running away from home is highly unlawful. running away from home from strict parents could even get anyone arrested, regardless of anyone, and anywhere. and last but not least, when friends get mad, Kiku's artwork is train wrecked by Bill's small case of rage quit, when Kiku accidentally wrecked his artwork. miss Murray would have given Kiku a double F minus, if little Bill kept ruining Kiku's artwork into an infinite loop. if Kiku rage quits, too, miss Murray would give her a triple F minus, just like Mrs. Thompson did with Abigail Lincoln of the kids next door that scolds Valerie the were-poodle.Bill Cosby, you deserve a big praise for designing Kiku and Fuschia as great, memorable characters.
... View MoreLittle Bill is such a wonderful program for children! My 3-year old loves it and I love the wonderful concepts that the show teaches. I hope that this program is around for a long time. I want my children to believe that we're all equal no matter what our cultural background and this show provides just that. I recommend it to everyone I know! Thank you to Mr. Cosby and his writing team for their wonderful insight into the incredible curiosities of children and how they look at the world. I especially love that the cultural diversity spans over several cultures. Children learn by good examples and this show provides plenty of good values to live by. This show is truly amazing!
... View MoreYou would think a PhD in Education would actually help Bill Cosby create a show worth letting your kids watch. I'm very disappointed in this show. I remember when it first came out and I thought it would be great for my son to watch. My son has Autism. He knew more at 5 than Little Bill. I have no clue where the writers get their material; but they either have kids of their own with low IQs, or they are just never around real 5 year olds. I have a three year old now, and she knows as much as (or even more than) Little Bill. That's pretty sad. The only show that seems to compare to Little Bill is Caillou. Both shows center around whiny kids who can't understand why the world isn't revolving around them. But the kids never change. How can a character NOT evolve? Watching this show is not a pleasure. I was hoping over the years the writers would actually learn how a five year old really acts. That has not happened. Spare yourself the torture and watch just about anything else. There are a few other shows I hate as much, but I'd rather watch Oswald and listen to Fred Savage sing off key and off tempo than this nonsense.
