Doug

Pros: positive program, uniquely entertaining characters and plots, humorous
Cons: Roger the bully, Doug never quite captures Patti's eye

I like amicable animation Doug Funnie immensely. He can always use his nurtured noodle and good-naturedness to make the right decisions, and makes a fine role model for a cartoon. He may not have an abundance of good looks, but his kindness and...

Pros: Very insightful show that takes a look at what's important to children who are entering their teens; amusing and charming entertainment that adults can enjoy
Cons: Disney has some influence over this show, and Lord only knows what they'll do to it

My three-year-old Son just loves watching Doug. He can catch it on both Nickelodeon and ABC, so there are plenty of "Doug-watching" opportunities available to the lad. I can't help but think, though, that the creators of the show were...

Pros: Stereotypes are broken, the storylines are relatable
Cons: Um, let me know if you can think of one

I have watched this show for the longest time. This will be a combo review of both the old and new Doug cartoon.

THE CHARACTERS:

Doug Funnie is an 11 year old sixth grader (sixth grade is part of the elementary school system in the...

Pros: Solid writing - funny, entertaining
Cons: Sometimes a little too goofy

Doug is an animated cartoon that first aired on Nickelodeon in 1992. The show was enjoyable for the pre-teen age group and had a few things that even appealed to the young teens. But since the show has switched to ABC, the changes incurred...

Pros: entertaining, non violent
Cons: can't get the theme song out of your head

We like Doug Funnie. Of all the cartoons to choose from, this is one I feel safe allowing in the house. Doug is a likeable kid, many children can relate to his problems, his antics and his adventures. many of the episodes have a positive message, usually...

Pros: Great Family Show
Cons: Its only on a half hour

Doug is one of the few shows that I never have to worry about my kids watching in their rooms. Many of todays cartoons require adult supervision and explanations. This show is all about Doug Funny, an average pre-teen boy. He and his dog Porkchop live...

Pros: teaches a lesson
Cons: none

My four year old sons watch Doug everyday now. The first time they watched it I sat down and watched it with them, after all this is a show about a boy in Jr Highschool, I needed to make sure it was ok.
Even though the kids in this show are a lot...

Pros: Excellent childrens program
Cons: none

A wonderful cartoon for the kids. And, I must admit my wife and I watch it with them occasionally and enjoy it. The characters are real enough for them to associate with, while also make believe enough for them to realize they are just that--characters...

Pros: Great message to kids
Cons: Exists in re-runs

I vividly remember my first time watching the Doug show on Nickelodeon. For those who grew up in the early 80s, this was like the MTV “blast off” for me. The new “Nick-Toones” Rug Rats and Doug had been hyped for weeks the summer of 1991, and...

Pros: A show that grows with your kids.
Cons: Sometimes the characters get away with something...but then again that's what happens in real life too.

Nickelodeon certainly has a talent for creating characters kids can identify with. But Doug is somebody moms would want their kids to invite home. He's thoughtful, compassionate and is a great friend. What more could a parent ask for in a friend for...

Pros: entertaining, very original, teaches lessons
Cons: none

Ok, I have already written an opinion on how Disney ruined this show. (see Disney's Doug) So now I get to write about how good the show was in it's prime Nickelodeon era!

Doug is a show about a boy...named Doug. He goes through many...

Pros: Nicely presented, no foul language, diversity in characters and shows using respect and thinking through situations first as the answer
Cons: Not a lot of new episodes

I have to say, this show is cute. I have four boys, so they all watch this show. I think for Nick/UPN this is a show that can relate to growing boys, especially from 10 on up.

There is no foul language in this show, the characters are all...

Pros: teachs real life situations
Cons: none

We started watching Doug in the spring of 1997 when I was first pregnant with my now 2 year old. That is how she aquired the nickname Porkchop. My Dear Husband absolutely adores this show. It teaches right from wrong, how brothers and sisters really...

Pros: Teaches about Life!!
Cons: Only a Few!!! Just different personalities!!

A family favorite!!!! Doug deals with real life situations and teaches viewers how to handle everyday problems as they come up!!!! Teaches viewers alot of great lessons in life,,, (Lying,Cheating,Loving...etc...)
He is just the boy nextdoor i feel...

Pros: Goes through life's ups and downs.
Cons: Don't see any.

I love this cartoon. It is not your typical goofy show.
I like the fact that this show deals with the pressures of adolescents. It shows how kids are teased and picked on in everyday life. It teaches how to deal with all aspects of growing up and...
