LazyTown
Things are upside-down in LazyTown. Stephanie, an optimistic girl with bright pink hair, comes to live in LazyTown and meets a zany mix of townspeople, including the world’s laziest super-villain, Robbie Rotten. Fortunately for Stephanie, LazyTown is also under the watchful eye of Sportacus, an athletic, super-active, slightly-above-average hero, who runs, jumps, flips and flies to the rescue in his futuristic AirShip. Sportacus always manages to save the day and to help the kids of LazyTown foil Robbie’s latest lazy schemes. The citizens of Lazytown learn the importance of things like eating right and exercising from the ultra-athletic superhero, Sportucus, who must stop the evil plots of Robbie Rotten, who hates physical activity, among other things.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
I watched this show when I was around the target age range, and I just remember being terrified whenever it ended up onscreen.
Wow... Just... WOW! I've never seen an Icelandic production this awesome. I admit that it's for kids, but there's a lot of stuff for even adults to enjoy as well. In fact, it's so good, that it managed to cut the obesity rate of Iceland, and increase the fruit intake rate by about 15%. Unlike these pandering smuts like Toopy and Binoo which says: "I LUV EATING TREES", LazyTown shows their own way of teaching via actions, and they also have clever wordplay, like Sports Candy, also known as fruit. The actors of Stephanie and Sportacus are really talented in aerobics, and the one that steals the show for me is Robbie Rotten, with his crazy antics and disguises. In fact, when his actor had pancreatic cancer, endless memes paying homage to him boomed in the internet, which means that this show's success is incredibly high. The creator, writer and star, Magnus Scheving, felt that there wasn't much sports role models around the world, so he decided to turn himself into the ever lovely sports hero, Sportacus. This show is so full of charisma and awesome actions, that it leaves me saying: "More of this for the kids please. Less of... that (Teletubbies and Toopy and Binoo) please."
OK, so why the heck is this sporticus guy running around doing flips like a monkey every damn second? Quite distracting if you ask me but then again there isn't much story to be had anyway.Very cheesy, not the greatest acting on the part of Sporticus who i will give credit only for being an athlete. The other 2 characters are more interesting.I gave it 2 stars for those other actor's contributions and because of the healthy message for kids, but sheesh they need a half decent actor who is YOUNGER to play Sporticus.Someone with a bit of charm who doesn't take himself as seriously but who you can take more seriously OK, figure that one out ;)
Although my youngest is ten, all my other kids are teens, we all watch this show. It is both funny and entertaining. The characters are all portrayed with real foibles that are used to gently teach kids to make good choices such as loyalty, being true to yourself etc. The town's hero is a kind, patient father figure to the children while the villain is a grincy grump who just wants peace and quiet but also has a soft side to him as well. The little girl, Stephanie, is a talented dancer and singer that really injects life into the show. The message in the show is simple but effective. Eat a healthy diet and play games, but most of all-have fun. Kids really respond to this and it is nice to finally see a childens show that does not talk down to kids. How anyone can find Lazytown creepy is beyond me. The show is good natured and has a gentle humour despite its frenetic pace. Even though has a hero and a villain, there is no violence, no humiliation. The central message here is kindness, inclusion and friendship. A message that is so sadly lacking in so many kids shows today.
