7/10
Good clean fun for kids and adults
28 April 2012
My son is 15 and loves this show so much he literally sets an alarm and gets up at 3:00 AM just to watch the reruns. Knowing he was so dedicated and after some time of being asked, I finally gave in and watched a few episodes with him. You know what? for a "Y-7" kids show, it's very good!

All four penguins are very likable and unique. It's actually hard to pick out a favorite, but I'm going to have to go with Private. The voice acting is great and dynamic, the computer animation very clean and vibrant, and the stories are fun. Some episodes are okay, some are good, and some are laugh-out-loud funny, even for adults. The okay episodes are why I didn't give the show a higher overall rating.

Of the secondary characters, I like all three lemurs, but other than John DiMaggio's elephant (because, you know, JOHN DIMAGGIO), I'm either indifferent or actively dislike them. Another reason for my 7 out of 10 rating.

I hope Penguins is brought back, because it's a total rock star compared to most of that channel's current Y-7 programming.
