Advantages: Excellent series suitable for all ages

Disadvantages: none

Although I am 24, I love Blinky Bill! I think the drawings/animation are excellent (by Yoram Gross and his team, who have also previously made a number of excellent animated films with live background).
Unlike the "Tom & Jerry" type cartoon, there is a lot of dialogue and you can really feel a part of the characters.
The stories are always entertaining and although you know it's going to turn out ok in the end, there are lots of surprises along the way.
Blinky has lots of friends (Flap, Nutsy, Splodge and Marcia are the main gang) but also lots of enemies too. (And young Shifty of the Dingos family who sometimes joins in with Blinky's gang, even though the Dingoes are always causing trouble).
There are CD-Roms based on the series and these are great too, as they each (not including the play& print one) have a story on them, which you can watch first if you wish, and have lots of pages, each one interactive, with lots of hidden surprises - it creates hours of fun for an adult so I would imagine that it would be even more for a child. They also have educational games and lots more.
I would recommend this programme to everyone, adults and children alike.
