What Parents Need to Know
About Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends
Parents need to know that young kids may not understand the difference between real and imaginary in this series. Potty humor and under-the-radar sexual references ("A bust this big needs ample support," in regards to a bust statue, for instance) crop up, and the main characters often yell and shout in frustration and are prone to breaking the rules.

The "is it any good" review for this show is ridiculous.
This is frankly the most clever show that has been on Cartoon Network in a long time. I'm disappointed by the low expectations put forward by the reviewer for this site. Sure, the character "Blu" does con other characters pretty much every show and preys on weaker characters to get what he wants, but by the end of the episode, he gets his. This is the way people taught morality in folk stories, I don't know why the reviewer has no confidence in the ability of modern children to see cause and effect.
