Does Anyone Else Find Doc McStuffins Strangely Addicting?

[MouseEarsForAll]

I have watched this show A LOT, and I really enjoy it... It's one of the best kid shows in a long time, agree? Why am I so addicted to it???

I watched it once when I was stuck in bed sick. I always end up watching kids shows when I'm sick. I thought it was a cute show. I didn't get addicted to it, but I did get addicted to "Good Luck Charlie."

I've watched it several times with my DS 5 and it really is a good show; one of Disney's better one in a while. The theme song tends to stick in your head too.

I'm more of an Octonauts fan (love Barnacles & Kwazii, would totally get in line to meet them!), but I've found myself watching Doc a few times (especially since Dis Jr runs it in the evenings). It's cute, and I like the characters, and the "I feel better, so much better" song is one of those things that gets stuck in your head.

Count us in - DD has actually said she thinks the show is addictive

DH watched 4 shows in a row with her once - then he was Doc McStuffined out!

Everytime I watch it I end up humming the songs for the rest of the day. We'd love her to have a meet/ greet!!

My DS2 loves Doc McStuffins and therefore, we do too. At his wellness check up last week he kept singing, "It's time for your check up, It's time for your check up." And anytime he gets hurt and then feels better... you guessed it, "I feel better, so much better..." As PP said, the songs ARE catchy! DS is also always asking if we "need a cuddle" if he thinks we are sad or tired.

We also like Octonauts. DH and I comment on how much we learn about sea life when watching!

I totally agree! It's a super cute show and the biggest plus for me is that they use normal voices, not the high pitch whiny stuff that kid shows tend to have. I also end up with the music stuck in my head for the rest of the day after my kids watch the show, but don't mind. =)

"Creature report! Creature report!"


Yay! I'm not alone! The theme song is pretty catchy...(Doc McStuffins')

It is a really cute show and I like it. So many kid shows are actually quite stressful with characters in constant peril or being lost that I like these types of children's shows that are more fun.

Its okay to find yourself watching Disney Junior shows, I sometimes watch Jake and the Neverland Pirates, but mainly for Captain Hook and Mr. Smee.

 

[CentralFloridian99]

I'm starting to think I should watch it with all this hoopla about it.

It's a cute show - DD who is 3 really likes it. Though I don't think I'd ever watch it without her.

Octonauts is actually not a Disney show, it's based on a book series called the Octonauts and made by a couple from Canada. It's been shown in the UK and Canada for a while now, but just made its way to the US on the Disney Channel recently.

As for Doc, yes, my kids like her. She's very cute, and I like her lamb.

It is a really cute show, I like it better than a lot of the others, I try to get my 3 year old Cousin to watch it, and he's only into Mickey Mouse Club House and SpongeBob.

Yeah, that's why I'm sure we'll never see them at WDW. In fact, you can go on YouTube and see some original episodes with a couple of different voices: Dashi is actually Australian (gives her much more personality, I wish they'd kept that voice), and Peso has a British accent instead of Hispanic (I like our Hispanic Peso better). Everyone else is the same.

Doc McStuffins actually bears a slight, vague resemblance to Handy Manny (and I mean that in a good way); having to diagnose and "fix" things, the use of the "Check Up" and "I Feel Better" songs, and some personality types among the toys: Stuffy (my favorite on Doc) is kind of in the same family as Pat (my favorite Tool), the sweet, goofy character (I'm a Dragon! I'm a Hammer!), and Chilly is a bit of a Rusty-esque worry-wart. And you have to love a show that throws in a joke about having a toy crane named Niles!
