Info

The Penguins of Madagascar is an American CGI animated television series airing on Nickelodeon. It stars nine characters from the DreamWorks Animation animated film Madagascar: The penguins Skipper, Kowalski, Private, and Rico; the lemurs King Julien, Maurice, and Mort; and Mason and Phil the chimpanzees. Characters new to the series include Marlene the otter and a zookeeper named Alice. It is the first Nicktoon produced with DreamWorks Animation. A pilot episode, "Gone in a Flash", aired as part of "Superstuffed Nicktoons Weekend" on November 29, 2008, and The Penguins of Madagascar became a regular series on March 28, 2009. The series premiere drew 6.1 million viewers, setting a new record as the most-watched premiere. Although the series occasionally alludes to the rest of the franchise, The Penguins of Madagascar does not take place at a precise time within it. McGrath, who is also the co-creator of the film characters, has said that the series takes place "not specifically before or after the movie, I just wanted them all back at the zoo. I think of it as taking place in a parallel universe."

The Penguins of Madagascar Audience Reviews

Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
bearfaceproductions With the Madagscar movie franchise it seems the penguins became very famous. So let's see how a series made especially for them works.It's hilarious, it's fun, it's entertaining and it has a lot of potential.I really hope it stays as long as the Spongebob series.So original, with lovable characters and a good story in each episode.It's funny when it wants to be, the cast is simply amazing.At first a show for them didn't seem like such a good idea, but let me tell you that it was the best idea anyone could have had for TV.Grown-ups give the show a chance kids and adults are bound to have a good time with the penguins. I really hope it stays that good 'cause you can't find any new show as successful as this, these days.It's a 10 of 10!!!
zeroFargoth I've seen some of the episodes of this show, I don't regularly watch it but If I'm bored I may watch it on occasion. At times I laugh but only from the penguins. Considering the name of the show that should be the primary focus. Unfortunately the lemurs were thrown in. The only one that really grinds my gears is King Julian. In the movies he was usually at least a somewhat amusing character, in this series his personality is incredibly irritating. That is my only big issue with the series. The other non-penguin characters are at least passable, if not all too humorous. Expect the same from the penguins. If anything, this show should focus more or only on their military-style antics.
nabor7 I grew up with Crusader Rabbit and was entering junior high school when Rocky and Bullwinkle first debuted. I honestly believe that "Penguins" is as close to Rocky as you can get as far as the humor is concerned. The humor in Penguins is classic and the I have recorded and watched every episode over and over again. The seriousness by which Kowalski comes up with his plans and "options" is hilarious when we see the final product which could have been drawn by a pre-schooler, or his inventions which are made up of sardine tins, etc. It's this type of humor that makes this so special. They think in adult terms but their actions are purely that of a child. It would eventually get boring without the other animals and the mix is just right for it to be effective. Julien's mastery of the English language is great. I really believe we have all known a Julien in our lives. The one person who knew it all and tried to command all the attention and notoriety while at the same time does not have a clue. Rico is perhaps my favorite character. The episodes with his girlfriend doll are great. My grandkids love "Penguins" and I get a kick out of watching them watch the show because it's obvious we are all getting something different from it. Great work. Keep it up.
jjwile I watched this show after the kids choice awards. It had some funny parts but it had a lot of overrated jokes. especially when the penguins thought they landed on the moon and ran into a cat they thought was an alien. I saw that same skit in Sponge bob Square pants. I just hope the series will improve. It is definitely different from "Madagascar" but it has the same lovable characters besides some of the original Characters. I think kids will learn to like it or hate it. I guess its OK but it is not the greatest thing i ever saw. Now to finish this up for you its a funny show but has a lot of overrated cheap jokes that you saw from sponge bob or rocko's modern life. I suppose Nick is still trying with new shows
