Oh my.... I am at a loss of words at how disappointed and frustrated I am with this show and disney plus. After hearing mulan is gonna cost $40 to get on top of disney subscription I am getting a liiittle annoyed. My daughter loves Minnies bowtoons unfortunately but disney decided to make every episode under THREE minutes and the credits are almost as long as the episode. It's horrible for parents. You literally have to fast forward past the credits after every episode EVERY THREE MINUTES. For the love of God do yourself a favor and don't let your kids watch this or they'll be crying their eyes out waiting for you to fast forward past the credits over and over and over again. Holy moly when I started writing this post I started an episode and it ended before I finished typing. Also... Mickey mouse clubhouse is so educational and multi dimensional.... But minnies bowtoons only promotes basic themes like friendship and minimal feminine problem solving..😔🙄😤 please disney this is so so...SO sad.

Painful to Sit Through.
tony_dvorak6 September 2021
There is no redeeming value here. After watching incredible and smart shows for children with our toddler (Bluey, for example), this horror of a show is cringe-worthy. Too frantic. The characters are all seemingly imbeciles. Nothing educational or heartwarming. Painful.

Credits are too long.

It's a good show but each episode is only 3 minutes and then there is a minute and a half of credits on each episode. A little excessive to me.

A poor attempt at best.

My 2 year old has found this and loves it. I find it to be over bearing. The situations are too ridiculous to be funny in a 3 minute vingnette and the characters are sad replicas of the originals. Especially Daisy Duck, who is made out to be a buffoon in most episodes...same with Clarabelle Cow. Plus, as an added pain. The foreign credits at the end of each episode are almost as long as the cartoon itself. 3 minutes to watch, then fast forward through another 2 minutes to get to the end and start the next episode. Parents, learn to tune this one out if your kids do like it.

This is my daughters favorite show.

My daughter is two and absolutely loves this show. Some people complain that the episodes are too short (3min) but the show is not targeting adults. So I honestly think that's the short run time is a benefit of the show. We don't like having a lot of screen time so this show is great to have a fun little show with Minnie and Daisy as the main characters for 3 minutes and then we can do something else. It's great to use as a transition show without waiting forever for the show to end. I like that each episode they generally have some little lesson or mostly they problem solve through different situations. They are light hearted, not to serious, and easy to follow.

Even Disney Staff Don't Watch

It's pretty clear nobody at Disney bothers using their own streaming service because it's effectively broken.

Credits are ~30% of the runtime of the show (~1:25of 4:40 total). There's literally no excuse for that. Period.

The pop-up for the next episode glitches 100% of the time and forces you to sit thru credits (unless you have lightning reflexes). Queue upset kids.

Add in the autoplay delay and the fact that the controls overlay only gives you RESTART and not next episode.... it's clear this show and UI are an unused afterthought on the part of Disney.

Have started switching other shows an apps completely after the second or third outburst, maybe one day we'll stop watching entirely.

Minnie Mouse and Daisy Duck are wonderful female role models for young children to look up to

Great for really little kids

My daughter turns one in a couple weeks, and these are good sized videos for her. We have Emby and got 10 bow-toons from the Wizard of Dizz DVD (all of season 1), plus two from another Clubhouse DVD (Pop Star Minnie?). They are great to shuffle with episodes of other shows geared to young kids. My daughter basically loves songs and bright colors at this stage, and the Mickey Mouse stuff works well for her in general. It did take a couple plays for her to recognize the song and get excited, but she claps and runs over and bounces when she hears it start. I will also have her kid shows on in the background while we play so we can sing along and dance or whatever.

The episodes don't include credits when you get them from the DVDs, and I wish they would release more. I have watched the show on Disney+, too, and the experience is a little better without the credits, but they are easy enough to skip.

Edit: The 10 episodes of Season 2 can be found on the DVD release Minnie-rella.
