My review on Lazytown

Here's a reviewified rant I've been wanting to do for a year now.

I am going to rant about the downfall of a discontinued series. The series I am referring to is......

Oh!

I don't want to watch Season 3 of Lazytown! I really don't!

"You have to! You've been talking bad about the series over the last couple of years!"

Well, I don't want to.

"You have to! If you don't, people will keep asking you to rant about it! Now do it! Do it! DO IT NOW!"

Fine! I will do it!

Lazytown is an Icelandic children's show, created by Magnús Scheving

Every time there's a Problem, The character Sportacus [who is played by the creator & director]. would always be on hand to help....... No matter how ridiculous the situation is.

The show teaches kids about health and playing outside, okay I guess some people would hate this part of the show, but at least it's teaching the kids something.

The show ran for 4 seasons. the first colour hint of the camera, and the characters looks definitely wern't the best, but they also wern't the worst either.

But the designs can be easily be forgotten about by everything else

The show had a very charming sense of humour.

The music was catchy and fun to listen to.

The dialogue was witty, and the acting was fantastic.

After a 1 year hiatus, Lazytown came back for a 2nd season with 18 episodes. And I've made the decision to call this the best season of the show.

The acting was better the Looks were better, well, most of them anyway, the humour was a bit better, and the action was infinity times better.

But then a few years after that season ended, they decided not to continue on this great action humour and characters and instead replace it all with a rubbish reboot with rubbish action rubbish characters rubbish stories and rubbish.......................***EVERYTHING!***

First of all, let me talk about reboots, a reboot is taking a show that was popular and loved by many people, years ago, and then bringing it back, into modern day television, and there are some pretty good reboots out there, Morph, Minnie's Bow Toons, Pingu In The City, some of these reboots take som elements form the original show, and make them seam better than they were originally, for Morph, the animation, for Pingu In The City, the humour, as well as the animation, for Minnie's Bow Toons, for completly bringing back and modernizing the show, and yet somehow keeping the same charm as the original. But of course, with all of these decent reboots, there are also some BAD reboots.

Biff and Chip, for having too much modernization, not to mention, axing the full Biff Chip & Kipper name.

Ducktales, for not containing the exact same Disney feel as the original show did

Big Cook Little Cook & Roary the racing car, for having absolutely nothing to do with the original shows, AND I DO **MEAN *NOTHING!***

And I can easily agree that Season 3-4 of Lazytown is definitely one of those BAD reboots.

Where do I start on Season 3? Let me say my thoughts on the basics.

The theme song : It's rather cool, but it is nowhere near as fantastic as the original. My problem: Why did they shortened the theme song? Was the full version too long?

The reason I call this a reboot, and not "Season 3-4" is because it feels like a completely different show!

The characters look different, and for the most part, act different.

The setting is different.

The visuals are different. The feel is different.

Let's talk about the basic stuff in regards to this reboot.

The acting and voices: The acting is......okay but the voices are very bad. [except for the singing and Ziggy Trixie and Pixel in the UK dub] This seems as though the audio is loud! This makes the Biff and Chip reboot look like James Bond 007.... and that's saying a lot! If CGi Fireman Sam and Minnie's Bow Toons Party Palace Pals can look better than this, then these producers really need to improve on their filming, or they need to go back to filming school and learn the basics of filming and voice recording.

Never mind. I found the problem with the reboot's looks and voice recordings. Seasons 3-4 were produced by Warner Bros Discovery [then known as Timewarner], an American company. I'm not trying to offend anyone, or WBD in general, but was there really a need for an American company to Produce an Icelandic children's show that would later be sent over to the UK?

I never thought I would say any of this, but I'm going to give credit to the 2007 series! At least the people who made that season knew The show's feel

The new pink girl looks nothing like Stephane! And the upgraded superhero with a transforming backpack looks absolutely NOTHING like Sportacus.

The music: It's nowhere near as great as the original or the 2006 series. 'eck! Even the iconic Sportacus theme is boring in this series!

The Sportacus theme in the original series and the 2007 series:

TThe Sportacus theme in the original series is catchy, fun to listen to, and it makes you excited to see the Sportacus in action.

The Sportacus theme in the CGi reboot:

The Sportacus theme is bland. There's even a few parts that weren't in the original. It's unlistenable.

But what really is the problem with this reboot......

Robbie in the reboot: In the original series, Robbie was viewed as an airhead. The airhead of Lazytown. trying to get rid of Sportacus.

But in the reboot, he's a moron to the point he thinks he's been good, but he has been naughty, and he said, happy birhtday but then said, not happy birthday, .What in the actual Heck?!

So there you go. That was the downfall of Lazytown.

It should never have been produced by Warner Bros Discovery or Turner, and it should be replaced with some new show, right NOW!
