big agree.


... also Bluey is one of the best children's shows on TV and I'm DYING here waiting on my country to get the third season.

[tabaqui]

Omg, yes, this, this, this.
(And stop making every kid of every main character some kind of a) prodigal genius or b) 'special' meaning Autistic/traumatized (if adopted). Can't we have some normal kids?

'Kids Try' vids on Youtube are a good thing to watch - they're not scripted or coached, they're just reacting to stuff.

[greghousesgf]

a lot of kids' media does not have the most realistic depictions of kids either.

[(Anonymous)]

Yessss!!! Why is it so rare to get good writing/representation for realistic kids?

[(Anonymous)]

I was just watching Bluey when I saw this secret. Weird coincidence.

[dancingmouse]

Everyone writing kids should just go the Axe Cop route. Let the kid write it, and work around that.

[lumy12]

Ugh, yes. Although if people haven't spent that much time around real kids, I can understand how they might botch some things based on what they see in shows or movies. I draw the line at a baby smiling and giggling like two minutes after exiting the birth canal, though!

I also get annoyed when listening to a story and I know the voice actor portraying the kid is an adult. It just sticks in my head that it's an adult "pretending" to be a kid and sucks me out of it. Not so much with animated stuff so maybe I just need the visual?

[(Anonymous)]

Is like they're so used to Peppa pig (which also acts like some kids, but can't be comparable with Bluey).

[(Anonymous)]

To be fair, I grew up with no personal experience of kids except being one. A couple of episodes of a kids show didn't change that (that's something I tried), and every kid I ever wrote pre-parenthood is hugely, wildly inaccurate.

[(Anonymous)]

Kids shows really aren't a good way to learn what real kids are like. But the same can be said of any type of show for learning what people are really like. But that's okay, because we're so used to the fake realism of "realistic" shows that if you wrote a realistic kid, everyone would think they were unrealistic. I work with kids, and you cannot make up most of the more interesting things they do. When I read a story online about someone's kid doing something wacky, it sounds real to me but people without experience all say "lol, this literally never happened"

I don’t think they’re the exact same people, but I do think they’re the kind of people with he same mentality, it’s just directed differently.

You doing okay, OP? I'm not familiar with the series but I'm glad you can enjoy it again.

This got ignored when I said it before but I'm going to say it again. That little group of people was too small to repopulate a whole planet without a LOT of inbreeding, Worf's brother has human DNA, what if the kid he has with that alien woman looks more human than like one of them, and I know she was intended by the writers to be charming and innocent but the alien woman Worf's brother got pregnant comes off as dumber than a box of sticks.

No one has ever gotten Amy right, and it's always a disappointment. No one has ever made Beth seem to decline and become thin and pale like she is in the books, either. Megs have been...okay, sorta, Jos have mostly been eh, Lauries....more eh.

Don't get me started on Mrs. March ranting about corsets to A MAN in the Wynona Ryder LW - are you MAD???

The flash back/forwards were a little annoying, yes, though I liked that we got more about Amy/with Amy, particularly her art and her desire to marry 'well'.

I agree 100%. When I look back on her as an adult, she reads exactly the way a 15-year-old should to me. She doesn't always have the best judgment but she's trying her best in a situation that is really way more than she should ever have had to deal with at that age (especially on top of her existing family issues), and frankly, I think she matured admirably over the course of the series.
