Dorathen Better Late Then Never

Dotbankey A lot of fun.

Brainsbell The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Carlos Barton Pocoyo is a product of the Spaniards and English and it is so awesome, easily one of the greatest TV shows for children in the post-9/11 era. It really is themed for infants, but anyone, even grown-ups, can get hooked on Pocoyo. An episode is usually about 6-7 minutes long and in the episode the title character, a 4-year old dressed in blue plays with his animal friends, each episode about a certain aspect of life. It is done in a happy, sometimes sad, but always hilarious way.The supporting characters are all amazing and so lovable. They may be animals, but they have human-like feelings and emotions and that adds to the warmth. First you have Pato the Duck. Pato is easily the most surreal character. Despite being a duck he wears a hat, you can comically dislodge his eyes, his beak spins around his head such that he can become a helicopter (!) and he has very elastic limbs. He also has a short temper and can get angry very easily. The pink Elly the Elephant is a very girly character. She also gets annoyed with ease, because she usually likes dancing and playing with her doll. Symbolizing innocence is Loula, the brown/orange puppy. She will do anything to make Pocoyo happy and like all dogs can't resist a juicy bone. My personal favourite character is the obese Sleepy Bird/Pajaroto. Sleepy Bird just snoozes in her nest all day and when disturbed by noise etc., gets cross, but then nods off again! Her giant cartoon eyes and traits make her even funnier. She also has a son, Baby Bird/Pajarito who sleeps too but far less often than his mother, he has fun playing with Pocoyo and co. Then you have Caterpillar/Valentina, the dim but energetic friend of Baby Bird, the singing octopus Fred/Pulpo (really he should be called a quadapus because he only has 4 tentacles), the gargantuan Whale, Baby Spider and even aliens of many different types come for a visit from time to time.Pocoyo is so light-hearted, so energetic, so funny you will never be tired of it. In Britain it is narrated by actor Stephen Fry. Fry has a key role in making the program irresistible with his very gentlemanly voice. It deserves to be a classic for years to come and if I were to have children one day, I would definitely show it to them, along with stuff such as Digimon and Thunderbirds. A real pleasure.

alicemirela This is by far one of the most wonderful cartoon shows on TV! It is packed with fun, interesting information, cuteness, vivid and friendly colors, information, friendship stories, simplicity elevated to extraordinary, all in all ... an Original. I love the narrator, Stephen Fry! He is the beating heart of the stories. He coordinates so well the action with the words! Great narrator choice! He is so much fun, as much as Pocoyo, Pato, Ellie, the Bird, and the cute dog. And the Octopus who can make everyone laugh! My 2-year old laughs along with Pocoyo. Hurray for Pocoyo and his creators! Thank you for a wonderful show, Gentlemen! Keep your brilliancy lighting our life!

sleeps_wi_the_fishes quite simply, this show has to be seen to be truly appreciated for the simplistic masterpiece it is, defying all the expectations of a traditionally formulaic and mind-numbingly boring true 'kid's TV programme'...the programme itself almost mocks the complexity of its rivals, with a totally white background and characters so basic and almost clichéd that on the surface 'Pocoyo' could be very easily underestimated.Pocoyo - sky blue outfit, cutest little kid since Boo from 'Monsters Inc.', almost like one of the audience has stepped into the wonderful world in that 10 minute slot. Patto - the greatest dead-pan animated character since Gromit, who can independently spin his beak around his head like a fun Daffy Duck, extend his neck and becomes grumpy when he loses his green hat. Elly - a pink elephant, who can type on a laptop and ride a scooter... need i say more except... legend! Lula - imagine a dog in computer animation... exactly that. Sleepy-Bird - sleeps... is comically woken up... frowns... goes back to step 1if there is more convincing to be done, Stephen Fry plays the omniscient narrator who seems to be taught as much by Pocoyo as he teaches all the characters... which is always entertainment, even if it goes over the true-watcher's (kid's) heads... proving how accessible this masterpiece is to all ages wishing to explore their own anti-Spielberg "child-within". the stories themselves condemn conventional story lines, introducing new characters without trying to be anything except a kid's TV programme, such as aliens and even one where the characters race across their bare landscape.beautifully made, funny, for all ages, simple, entertaining, not too adventurous, fantastic, imaginative, original...i never want it to end after 10 minutes... my desire for this programme will never be saturated even if i buy the DVDwonderful

short_but_sweet10794 I think this programme is very good for young children, as pocoyo is a small boy who befriends an elephant, a duck, a bird who is always asleep and has a loving puppy called loula. Stephen fry does an excellent job- and doesn't speak too quickly for younger children. Pocoyo translates from Spanish into "little me". And that's exactly what he is. He's a small boy in his own world, with his friends along side him and a kind narrator to guide him. I watch it every day and it is not too long, but makes you happy. :) Children of all ages can enjoy it and he really is sweet. Elly the elephant is large and pink and is always there for little pocoyo. She likes having baths and always has a blue backpack with her. Pato the duck is rather quick to anger, but is an equally good friend, and always wishes good things, and is always up for a dance. Loula the dog is an actual pet dog of pocoyo's and therefore barks and howls if he sees something or his happy/upset. Sleepy bird: what can i say? the name says it all. This is a very sleepy bird, who always seems to get woken up somehow, but pocoyo usually calms her down. Recently, in newer episodes, Sleepy bird had a little baby, who doesn't seem to be as keen on sleeping.
