Review of Caillou

Caillou (1997–2018)
3/10
Caillou is unappealing
11 February 2016
Caillou is a pre-school show about a little 4-year-old boy and his daily life. The events are typical of everyday life from having siblings born to eating food you don't like, to having rough days. It's typical in every kid's life but the kid can react harshly to them. Now, when I was 4, I was a sweet kid, which most 4 year olds typically are until they grow older where they may become brats.

Caillou is a rude boy who lies, picks on his sister, and says naughty words (picked up by someone), which is basically things I don't like to see little kids doing nor understand. These days, kids are more mature than they should be. Despite contrary belief that 4 year olds are rude, this boy can do and say things that makes him a mean person. Rosie is two years old, who also cries, does things she is told not to do, and ruins Caillou's playtime, whom I also don't like and is forgettable.

So, why is he named Caillou anyway? Why is he bald? The story is uninteresting, it just shows typical days and maybe even with friends and disapproval. The drawings and animation is bad.

And I forgot to mention the mom and dad, who do nothing to punish Caillou nor help him out, which every kid gets when misbehaved. The opening is unrealistic, none of the kids in the framing device are even interesting, and voice acting done for Rosie doesn't even sound like a toddler. I wasn't even that interested in the show when I was little.

Avoid this, especially if you do not like little kids misbehaving.
