Shelldon

Dive into adventure under the sea with Shelldon the shellfish and his family. Despite his best efforts to stay out of trouble, it usually finds him anyway!

Brody agreed to watch part of it and then play a video game....until he started watching it and then he didn't want to turn it off. He said he liked the characters and wants to see it again but he wasn't as enthused about Shelldon as he is other shows. I did not feel this show has the quality of the other qubo shows. I couldn't really get into the characters but I liked the moral of the story. In the episode Brody and I saw, Shelldon was feeling average and left out until encouraged to use his strengths to help someone else. In the process, he learns a few things himself! I was surprised the looks of the characters didn't scare my son a little., they were kind of scary to me! I guess I'm too sensitive being a girl and all!! Shelldon is done in one long half-hour story. I don't think this one will be a first choice among parents wanting to enjoy cartoons with their children. It's just not that engaging. Sorry qubo, but Brody and I want Veggie Tales back! In fact, I just asked him and Brody says he likes Veggie Tales better.

Shelldon airs on NBC Saturdays at 12 PM EST and on ION Wed-Fri at 3:30 PM EST
