One thing that is really common to hear on the internet, is people and especially people from my millennial generation who talk about how kids shows aren't as good as they used to be. Like kids shows were the best in the '90s. Even kids from today seem to prefer the shows we grew up with than the shows that they are growing up with. I agree, that most kids shows are not as good as they were in the '90s. However, as an adult I really like this TV show and think it's a great show for kids nowadays. In comparison to other TV shows: Are You Afraid Of The Dark, Goosebumps, and Haunting Hour. I prefer this TV show over those TV shows. Here are some reasons. For one, I never watched Are You Afraid Of The Dark as a kid. I've seen episodes as an adult. I did watch Goosebumps, but not that often as a kid. I have been watching Haunting Hour, but I've noticed some of the Haunting Hour episodes aren't that entertaining. One thing I like better about Spooksville than these other TV shows, are how it has 3 main characters on each episode: Adam, Sally, and Watch. Whereas, Goosebumps and Haunting Hour had different characters in each episode that were often times ordinary people. Characters we didn't get to know that well outside of that episode, they aren't always that good at acting, and we always wonder what would happen next as about each episode ends with some suspense. I think it's better to get to know the characters rather than have different characters in each episode. Also, there's more action in Spooksville than there is in Haunting Hour or Goosebumps. As most of the episodes in the later two seem to deal with kids experiencing some spooky activity that they aren't too sure what to think. But, usually we don't see the characters facing off with a bad guy with their own strength like they do in Spooksville. I'd also say there's more of a plot in Spooksville, and it isn't as dark as either of those two R.L. Stine shows. So, yeah I can't wait until Season 2 when it starts. I think this show is the perfect kids show for today and definitely needs more viewers. I'm sure if people shared this show to lots of kids that don't know about it, a lot of the kids that watch it would enjoy it and this show would have a huge increase in viewers. Thanks for reading, if you read all this.
... View MoreThis show is annoying! I can understand changing stories to fit modern times/budget/whatever, but I can't stand taking all of the various characters & blending them into Adam! Why even have the other characters in the show at all if you never use them properly? They're either there to be saved by Adam or watch him save the day. Phone Fear had Watch originally saving everyone & now it's Adam. It seems like any story is now tailored to have Adam as the hero. & it's annoying! Let the other characters have their turn in the spotlight. I hope that this show gets better. Although, I'm not hopeful that it will actually happen. Shows that aren't based on a book are horrible. The ones that are based on a book they change & make them horrible, too. I had such high hopes for this series, but I'm disappointed with each episode.
... View MoreSpooksville is a fun new show that has great suspense. I've been on my toes in each show. Love the actors and the great scenery and special effects. The actors are really great and the witch is really, really good! Clever effects and good camera work, great artistic design. We look forward to watching it each Saturday --- hope it stays on a long time. We were tripped up this week to find that the time changed. We love it! Given all the scary shows my husband and I have found this one to be more clever and humorous with great sets and scenery. We'll be sure to double check the time next week and tape it if we will not be around. Actually 5:30 pm ET is better! Thanks for such a clever show!
... View MoreSpooksville is a great TV show. Like the series Goosebumps, Spooksville had us on the edge of our seats. This is the perfect show for the whole family to watch together. We kept saying out loud, "what's going to happen next?" My kids had such a fun time guessing what was going to happen next - like they were writing the show themselves! The stories are full of suspense and tension. Each episode is so well written and directed. The cast works together as a true ensemble. Great acting from each member of the cast. Perfect locations that match with the story. My only problem is wondering if there will be more episodes to come in the future!
