 Pretty cute videoSep 15, 2004
This is a pretty cute video. It's basically about Pilchard and Tommy the Tortoise so it definitely drags a little. My little one got ancy before it was over which is very unusual. We love Bob in our house but really, this one could have used a little pick-me-up in the writing department. It was a great idea, but it definitely needs expanded and reworked.

DelightfulJul 22, 2004
Bright, beautiful animation, sweetly adorable pets, and valuable lessons about friendship and responsiblity are found in "Bob the Builder: Pets in a Pickle". This winning entry in the "Bob the Builder" series is terrific for kids and has enough charm and appeal that even adults can enjoy it.
"Bob the Builder: Pets in a Pickle" is a delightful addition to anyone's DVD collection.

My kid is a huge fanMar 28, 2003
My two-year-old absolutely adores Bob the Builder. We play together frequently with his BTB toys and vehicles, recreating scenes from the videos or inventing new situations. The videos in general are excellent, but this is my personal favorite. The stories are fairly complex for a 2-year-old but deeply engaging. ("Can We Fix It?" is also excellect.) Usually we watch it together and comment on what's happening, but it's also valuable that he's happy to watch it by himself so that I can get some quiet time to feed the baby or put her to sleep (my wife is often out in the evenings). No harm in letting your child watch some wholesome programming on his own so long as you don't let him overdo it. I guess "A Viewer from France" would have to have a child to understand this.

In response to the Frog belowMar 11, 2003
So, there are a number of us out here in the real world who thank the lord for a few minutes to clean up the kitchen while our youngster watches Bob the Builder. Sure, he's a tool getting walked on by Wendy and the gang--but hey, he also is eternally positive and a decent role model. Besides, thetype of parent that selects Bob for their children will most likely spend time with our children far outweighs the amount of time spent in front of the tellie. You obviously don't have children

In responce to "2.5 yr./t,v,Feb 28, 2003
As amazing as it may seem, some of us are in a situation where it is just us and the baby. For example, a person's husband might work evenings and they work days. A "Wiggles tape" as my son(18 months)calls them could be what allows me to "cook a bite". Those are my son's words, not mine. Congratulations, I am so impressed that you can stay home with your child. I would love it if I could do that, but in order to do that, I would have to change some things that directly impact him. As it happens, I am afforded enough opportunities to take off that he gets to spend an entire day with "Momma" at least twice a month. He still gets to maintain his standard of living.The point is: You have no business judging people about how they entertain their children unless you have been in their shoes.
