Most of the DVD reviews I do go a little something like this…DVD comes in the mail, kids tear in open, pop it in the DVD player and watch it over and over cuz it is NEW. I then ask them if they liked it and write my review. I am not going to lie, most of the DVDs that I review, I have not seen. I just don’t have the time to sit and watch hours and hours of kids movies.
When my kids like them, they watch them over and over and I usually hear enough from the other room to know if it is inappropriate, funny, or just lame. But Shaun the Sheep was talked about and giggled about for so long at my house, I had to watch this one for myself. Since they are just 5 minute episodes, I thought I would see what all the laughs were about. It reminded me of the old school clay-mation that I watched as a kid, but way more clever. It took me a minute to get used to the no talking bit (I do a lot more “listening” to movies rather then watching…moms multitask, right??) But once I started watching, I couldn’t take my eyes off the TV.
Spring into all-new lamb-tastic fun whenShaun the Sheep™:
