    Racist? Nah. Less annoying than Caillou? DEFINETLY.

    I wish the reviewer who said that this show was "racist" would explain why....what's the point of expressing your view if you don't elaborate so people can see where you're coming from? I sure can't-I've never thought of this show as racist. The characters being black really isn't even the main subject of the program-they just are. The only objection I have to Little Bill is the occasional cute but erroneous imformation provided about various subjects, i.e. Little Bill saying that baby rabbits grow inside the mother rabbit's stomach (presumably until they are ready to be born)-I had to clear that up for my daughter, who is just starting to wonder about the facts of life. Other than that-we don't watch this often, but when we do, I have no objection to it-I consider it more entertainment than educational, but inoffensive and soothing. I'm not sure it would be of much interest to a kid younger than three or four, though. And also-it isn't Caillou, which is enough to warrant at least a four star rating as far as I'm concerned!

    Little bill is an annoying spoiled brat who is way too stubborn for his own good. my daughter likes it a little. but i can't stand it! He's a brat and he's stubborn!

    Little Cutie!

    My daughter has learned more from this show about behavior and how it effects others more than any other. She keeps what she learns and uses it a lot. One episode was to say SO when someone calls you names or bullies you and she uses it a lot! I like the fact the family is black because there are so few african-americans where we live and they show other races also all being together. She needs that and I'm glad she is getting it.

    I love this show and so does my 4y/o

    This is such a fresh and adorable show. The soundtrack is really, really cool (a constant jazz riff,) and the charcters are all gentle, lovely, polite people. Little Bill's life situations are realistic, the sense of community in his neighborhood is incredible, the animation is lovely, and there isn't a hint of commercialism in it. I love that the children and adults are so incredibly respectful and polite to one another and how all conflicts in the show are handled diplomatically. Little Bill, the main character, is also a charming and gentle character with a very inquisitive view of the world that will engage the younger viewers.

    Cute and Realistic

    I love the cut paper animation, urban setting, and jazz music. Little Bill is a polite, wondering, and inquisitive character. It effectively portrays real life situations in a positive manner (sibling rivalry, etc.)Little Bill is surrounded by caring people and is a good role-model himself.
