Editorial Reviews

3,2,1, Penguins, by the creators of VeggieTales, is a wholesome show that promotes virtuous behavior (without being preachy), while sporting a hip animation style similar to that of Jimmy Neutron. Three flying penguins--Zidgel, Midgel, and Fidgel--whisk a bored Jason away from his Grandmum's house into outer space to a place called "Uncle Blobb's Carnival Moon." The carnival promises to be great fun, but carnival-goers are instantly turned into chronic complainers thanks to the interference of Uncle Blobb. It's Uncle Blobb's plan to allow those "seeds of discontent" to spread until the planet becomes uninhabitable--then he can dispose of the "seeds" and earn a fortune repopulating the planet. Can Jason and his penguin friends stop Uncle Blobb and save the planet? Will Jason's interplanetary experience have any relevance to his potentially boring summer at Grandmum's house? (Ages 4 and older) --Tami Horiuchi

5.0 out of 5 stars I laughed a lot and enjoyed the whole thing!, November 15, 2004

By	Dan Blankenship "Author of THE RUNNING GIRL" (Lowell, IN USA) - See all my reviews

After a dismal episode #2 (The Cheating Scales Of Bullamanka) 3-2-1 Penguins, I was really happy to watch an AWESOME episode #3 (The Amazing Carnival Of Complaining)! Glad to see that Big Idea made up for episode #2 and did not continue on a downward spiral. Hurray!

I was laughing and smiling the whole way through.

Don't be a seed of discontent is the message of this excellent DVD - video. Jason Conrad takes off on another mission with the space traveling penguins and ends up at Uncle Blobb's Amazing Carnival of Complaining. I really need to let my coworkers watch this movie!

The plot is great, the dialogue, even better, but the best thing is just knowing that Big Idea is creating great entertainment for the WHOLE family! Thanks Big Idea, for bringing smiles to the faces of people seeking family oriented entertainment.

See ya next review.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Son really enjoys this!, March 24, 2003

By	"kellymel" (Winston Salem, NC) - See all my reviews

He's 2 but loves the penguins, especially Kevin who wasn't mentioned in the review. I like it because it throws in a lot of subtle humor that I get! I don't think he gets the lesson yet but maybe it's being drummed in there subtly !! This is a must have to your Veggie Tales collection!

5.0 out of 5 stars Life Lessons at a Child's Pace, June 22, 2004

By	T Colbert (Orlando, FL United States) - See all my reviews

My son is 3 1/2 and he loves to watch 3-2-1 Penguins constantly! I like them because I can watch, too. This particuar one teaches a good lesson about being thankful for what you have, and not being a "seed of discontent." It's great to use as a reference when the little one gets whiny.
