What Parents Need to Know

About Camp Lazlo

Parents need to know that this show is centered completely around boys and has no educational content. Though the characters can get up to silly and harmless pranks, some of the plot lines can be a bit more questionable. In one episode a character pulls down every one's pants in the entire camp. That's the plot. You get the idea -- goofy jokes are the highlight of this cartoon. Some kids may be inclined to imitate some of these behaviors/pranks.

    Off 4- Iffy 5-7 On 8+

    Used to LOVE this show, but now I realize how bad it can be. But it is DEFINITELY not a safe camp for children.

    Annoying and obnoxious

    Haven't you ever noticed how annoying, rude, bad, and obnoxious Cartoon Network's shows are? Yep, this is one of them. The potty language is NOT suitable for anyone. I don't care if you're a kid or an adult, it just shouldn't be acceptable. So, don't let your kid watch this show. It's basically pointless and dull. I don't even know what the creators of these shows are thinking! All they have to do is make a show that would actually interest a person, not be so rude and obnoxious, be clean, have a good story line, have a good message, and teach lessons. I know it sounds like a lot, but creators of these shows can pull it off. Believe me, they can.

    This is not a safe camp for children

    The show is very bad. All of the episodes have violence and potty humour. Some episodes have sex with a Girl Scout camper and Lazlo, and in one episode, Lazlo was nude, and it is a good thing it doesn't have pornography (to the animators). It was also a waste of our time and money. It was DISGUSTING. Also, Lazlo makes a meat beard and Edward pulls everyone's trousers down. It has bad behaviour. SAVE MONEY ON YOUR ELECTRIC BILL AND DO NOT LET YOUR KIDS WATCH THIS SHOW.

  5. Adult Reviewer

    I rate this title iffy for age 6 and give it 2.0

    The humor in this show is kind of crass.

    My family doesn't care for this one, and it is a little rude.
