TV Review: Mighty B
Recently the show Mighty B premiered on Nickelodeon. I caught the first episode and after that I was totally turned off from watching it. Actually after the first few minutes of the annoying nagging of the main character, Bessie, I wanted to turn it off, but I stuck it out and gave the show a chance by watching the whole episode. And it did not get any better, although, at least there was less nagging towards the end.
In the first episode she is trying to get the Animal Appreciation Badge. First she needs to convince her mom to let her get a dog, so she can compete in the Honeybee Dog Show.. In this part she is extremely obnoxious and rattles off reasons in a fast obnoxious voice. Actually she is just plain obnoxious throughout the show, especially with her spitty sounding way of talking. Also, there is an obnoxious part where she spends like a minute saying stay over and over to the dog. The only thing I like about the first episode is her little brother, who obviously looks up to her and helps her out in training the dog and her getting the badge in the end.
The second part of the first episode is about her trying to become tall enough to ride a roller coaster. Again she is just an obnoxious kid and the plots just do not have any value to them besides annoying entertainment.
Basically in the end I think this new show is another obnoxious Nickelodeon pointless plot cartoons like Spongebob, which is another cartoon I think is totally stupid and does not even have entertainment value. Bottom line is the idea of the show had good potential about a girl getting badges and going for her goals, but in the end the annoying character of Bessie and the lack of any depth to the plots makes this an entirely pointless show that is not even mindless entertainment, but rather mindless boredom. If kids are going to be watching television, I feel the shows should at least have some minimal value of showing proper behavior, which this show does not do.
