What parents need to know
Parents need to know that this animated series is an eclectic, entertaining blend of action and education. The Danger Rangers gang does a first-rate job of teaching kids about safety in a fun, family-friendly way, making the show an ideal pick for the younger set.
What's the story?
DANGER RANGERS follows the adventures of furry friends Sully (voiced by Jerry Houser), Burble (Kevin Michael Richardson), Burt (Mark Hamill), Kitty (Grey DeLisle), Gabriela (Tasia Valenza), Squeeky (Rob Paulsen), and Fallbot (John Kassir) as they help their fellow citizens learn to think and play safely. Whether they're putting out a fire or swimming to someone's rescue, parents can be reassured that the DR crew will both entertain and educate young viewers.
Is it any good?
One of the best things about Danger Rangers is that any kid can be "Danger Ranger Ready," since there are enough male and female characters to attract both boys and girls. Also, there's plenty of action to engage even the busiest kids, and the musical numbers will connect with any kid who loves to sing and dance.
Even more importantly, the show's essential messages are delivered clearly, without any scariness. In each episode, kids learn vital lessons about key safety issues -- from how to prevent a fire to how to play safe by the pool -- in a fun, upbeat way that isn't likely to upset them.
What families can talk about
Families can talk about safety. What are some of the ways kids get hurt? How can you avoid them yourself? Why is it so important to listen to parents when they tell you things to keep you safe? What part do the Danger Rangers play in keeping their fellow citizens safe?

Cleverly adorable!
I love this show! I catch it when babysitting for a little girl, 4 years old, and I can't help but laugh too. It's witty, adventurous and educational. We sing the songs from the shows all the time, and she remembers how to be safe. This is a great show; I love it!

Finally!!!
Danger Rangers can't be a preschooler show, why air it on PBS, when it can be aired on Nickelodeon and/or Cartoon Network (which needs REAL preschooler shows) instead. Nick and CN might need something like this in their lineup. Anyways, this show is very good to watch. Other neat shows on PBS include Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, Sesame Street, ZOOM, Reading Rainbow, Thomas & Friends, Barney, Big Comfy Couch, Arthur, Teletubbies, Dragon Tales, Zoboomafoo, Between the Lions, Clifford, Cyberchase, Caillou, Sagwa, Angelina Ballerina, Jay Jay the Jet Plane, Boohbah, Berestain Bears, Clifford's Puppy Days, Jakers!, Dragonfly TV, My Bedbugs, Maya & Miguel, Postcards from Buster, Ribert & Robert's Wonderworld, Zula Patrol, Mustard Pancakes, Make Way For Noddy, It's a Big Big World, FETCH!, Auto B Good, Nanalan', Franny's Feet, Curious George, Sheira & Loli's Dittydoodle Works, SeeMore's Playhouse, and Saddle Club.

Good for Kids- cloying for Unfortunate Adults
Mesaages about safety hammered home time and time again. My 4 year old sone LOVES this show. The series is good for instruction, but lacks any and all spirit of creativity. The songs about safety all sound the same, and are (mercifully) forgetable.
More a PSA than a series.
