Daniel Tiger has been a great source of 'learning manners' and how to be a good friend. Also teaches the little ones how to deal with anger and sharing, etc. The little kids love Daniel and his friends. My 2 1/2 year old grandbaby knows to take a deep breath and count to 4 before getting angry. :-) Sorry so many viewers don't get it.

This is just a STUPID show. The animation is the worst thing I have ever seen and I know it is for children but they are so dumb and can't figure out a simple thing. I honestly feel bad for the people who watch this. I expected more from PBS kids. Sure my baby brother likes this show but I can't see why. It is one of the worst shows I have ever seen. For the animation they just copy and paste random pictures. It is sooo lazy. I hate this show. Sorry to the people who like it.

Brilliantly done. Overly repetitious for adults, yes, but it's for an important reason: It's designed to solidly teach young children essential life skills in a variety of settings. In addition to being a mother of five children--one with autism--I minored in Child and Family Studies for my bachelor's degree and have spent the past fifteen years since studying human development, Montessori, sensory processing, ADHD, and autism. Seriously, the only thing the show is missing is pants. XD
