My 6 month old son Jonah loves this show he will sit there for hours and watch the super readers if i would let him. LOL I swear its like he under stands whats going on. And he has a little crush on Wonder Red. When she starts talking or skates around he just laughs and giggles and starts kickin his little legs n feet. Hes so adorable. I like the show myself i think its very educational and its a pretty neat show considering most of the cartoons and shows they have on tv today are so corny compared to what i grew up with. Like fraggle rock the real Looney tunes cartoons, oh and rugrats, rockos modern life, Doug all the Nickelodeon shows from the 90's. I know some weren't to educational but at least they were worth watching.

Super why the show is so pointless the it is supposed to help children read but mindless kids don't study the show or pay attention that they are supposed to learn something! Not to talk about the kids powers. Of course there is super why's power to read but can't all the other kids in the show read to even the dog can read and he know all the definitions of the words so the dog is smarter than super why!
