My 6 year-old son behaves very badly after watching this show. I think it is obnoxious and has redeeming value. We have tried it three times, and it is now on the banned list. A better show that is also funny for adults is Phineas and Ferb.
i love this show it rocks! kick has a girl friend in one episode but other than that it rocks and it's not just safe it's a really funny and daring and most of all HE ROCKS!
This show is just stupid. Don't even bother buying Disney XD, it's just filled with stupid shows like this. Isn't Kick ten years old or younger maybe? Why does he talk like a forty year old man...
My main beef with this show is it's usage of the word "dillweed". I expect better from Disney. I'm trying to bring my child up to be a respectful young man, and calling others a dillweed ain't helping.
Kick's complete disregard for safety is the basis of this entire series. The only thing he is interested in is riding on his skateboard all around the town, completely unsupervised mind you, with little to no injury sustained after idiotic stunts like cliff diving or skating down roofs.
There is a lack of role models and, not surprisingly, Kick's older brother plays the role of the 'idiot' in the series. There isn't a shred of brotherly love to be found in the entire series and it seems to give the message that brothers never love each other. Also, Kick's best friend seems to hate Kick's brother as well, implying that friends of one sibling can't be friends of another.
'Butt' and potty humor are far overused and often set off my gag reflex if I think about it too much. Kick walks around with a perpetual wedgie, which seems to be where the camera mainly focuses, and invokes a laugh response from unwitting viewers.
This show is on my 'do not watch' list and any children that happen to be under my care are not allowed to watch this. Anyone younger than ten absolutely isn't old enough to watch this show since most are incapable of separating reality and fiction. Unless your child is extremely intelligent (which some are) and knows that all of the things shown are only for the sake of entertainment I recommend you turn the television off and play checkers instead.
Anyone over eleven should be just fine watching this. But don't be surprised if there is a sudden influx of burps, farts, attempted milk-out-the-nose stunts, and excessive use of the word 'butt' for a while.
THE SHOW ISNT REALLY BAD AND IT AINT FOR LIL KIDS. ITS ON XD..THATS A OLDER KID CHANNEL.. SO WAT ITS JUS A LIL FAKE STUNTS.. GET OVER IT.. STOP BEIN SO PROTETIVE.. ITS NOT A BAD SHOW.
This show is awful and it should be boycotted or canceled.The animation looks TERRIBLE! Also,i've even seen some rip-offs of Rocket Power! RP is 100x better than this piece of trash!
My kids brought this show to my attention, it has few redeeming qualities for tweens and adults, but I can see why 6 - 9 year olds like it. The camaraderie between Kick and his little friend does show that no matter what happens between people, they can still remain friends. There is some violence, but is limited to Kicks antics and not person-on-person violence -- no more than your child would see at the skate park. Language is better than the majority of Disney shows they watch. Even as a protective parent, this seems like good show for children to watch.
Completely disrespectful and teaches nothing. I do beleive in entertainment for entertainment's saake, but with all the bullying, teen violence and suicides as a result these days - is this show doing anything but encouraging bad behavior? Not even close to entertaining for entertainment's sake. Bad for my 11 year old and 5 year old.
Uses name-calling and bullying to get a laugh, appropriate for teens, questionable for tweens
I have to say Kick is adorable in his daredevil jumpsuit. But that's about it. The show is full of potty humor (which my 9-year-old finds hilarious) and there is blatant disrespect for most adults (except for Kick's daredevil idols whom he adores). I usually watch with my son and talk to him about how hurtful name-calling can be and how friends don't take advantage of each other.
I have only watched this show once but did not like the message of the older brother doing whatever he wants when the parents go out of town, some of the language used and how the brothers interacted throughout the show. My child only laughed once during the show. I don't want to bother giving this show a second chance.
I would recommend other cartoons before this one...and at least something that my child finds funny.
