Fun for kids and adults too. Nice to introduce more words in a cohesive story. FYI: My kid still won't eat alphabet soup though.

Martha Speaks is funny but at the same time is incredibly stupid and it is just too happy. Martha even told her grandfather that she hoped he'd die. This show is very unrealistic too because there is a crazy ol' hag that needs to be put into the psycho house but instead she sounds off fake alarms in hospitals. Martha also talks due to alphabet soup going up into her brain. No offense, but wouldn't this make her, well, retarded? Bottom line, this show is harmless just very stupid. Nothing special. I wish my siblings didn't watch it as much as they do.

i love when she dreams of becomeig a firehous dog

although my sister loves it this could drive me crazy. its ideal for preschoolers

I love it! That Martha asks questions when she does not understand is wonderful. Children--and adults--should be encouraged to ask questions when they do not understand. Always answering the questions is good. Answering in language listeners can understand is good. The many human qualities of Martha make it easy to identify with her--happy, sad, helpful, sympathetic, inquisitive, smart, etc.

My son doesn't understand much of this but he likes to watch it.

My 4 year old son loves Martha Speaks. He is learning new words and their definitions. He often explains to me, in detail, what new words he is learning mean and gives situations when you would need to use that particular word. He then tells me which episode he saw this on. This show is really helping expand his vocabulary.

AND, TONS of potty humor for a Youth show, like "doophis" "stupid" and "idiot", not being overprotective, but maybe iffy for little ones,

Better story lines than most toddler shows, great vocab lessons, but a 2-3 year old can still follow it.
