Grizzy and the Lemmings (2016–2023) User Reviews

Well made and fun, perfect for kids.

[FelixVanNorden · 8/10 · 21 October 2019]

My 3yr old is bingewatching this on netflix for the 4th time and still regularly laughs out loud!

It has a clearly defined setting and characters, the animation style is distinct and the plots are simple, but effective. This all makes it easy to watch for young children, without it being 'dumbed down' or of less 'eshetic apeal' that so many modern cartoons display. The fact that there are 78 episodes with basically the same 'Tom & Jerry'-like formula that nonetheless never feels repetative, is a testament to the ingeniuity of the creators. The animation is quite good and sometimes pays a subtle hommage to classic cartoons.

This is a show that is well made, with attention to detail and it is clear the creators care for their characters and the world they live in. It makes this a very enjoyable and rewatchable show, for children ánd their parents.

Good fun

[Tak005 · 8/10 · 23 October 2019]

As there is no dialogue the comedy is all through facial and body expressions, and noises from the animals. Children from any nationality can watch and enjoy it. It also has some slapstick humour but it is very mild. Some humour is a bit subtle for younger viewers but it also lets adults who are watching get a bit of a giggle.

Pretty OK, But:

[magzrufino · 6/10 · 10 November 2021]

Look. This show was a little fun to watch, but all it does is go boring. It's always the same thing over and over again. Kind of repetitive but a little fun to watch.

It's like Tom & Jerry for today's kids.

[blueherringsc · 10/10 · 28 September 2019]

My 3 1/2 yr old loves it and I've found nothing wrong with it. It entertains him in a way that's safe and fun. Plus the setting is better than Tom & Jerry.

Great Show

[paulloin · 10/10 · 5 January 2020]

It's a joy to watch. It reminds me a lot of old Tom&Jerry.

Luckily available on Netflix and Boomerang channel

[bizarre-williams · 10/10 · 25 August 2020]

My young sis knows about this shows is quite funny. I know the group of lemmings is the naughtiest animal but cute and funny. My mom also know this show too and she feel pity about Grizzy who always distracted by the group of Lemmings. I hope this show deserves the best ones!!!

This show is dumb.

[kingolympus · 1/10 · 29 March 2021]

This show is pure noise that gives me a headache. This show looks like it deliberately copied Open Season which in my opinion is a way better film than this nonsense. Don't watch this. It's purely noise and it's annoying.

Very cute!

[kcalleros · 10/10 · 4 August 2020]

My two year old daughter loves this show. She used to love mash & the bear but now this tops it! I my self definitely enjoy watching it.

"Bad" because of extreme repetition

[josemiguel-71192 · 4/10 · 23 April 2022]

Ok, I actually like this show style and humor, the animation is great, the problem is that every episode is almost the EXACT SAME!!! If you watch one episode, you have watched all, when you watch one episode, is funny because the jokes are new, when you watch another episode is less funny because it's the same episode with little variation, and when you watch another is again the same so it's even less funny, when you watch 10 episodes, you feel that you have watched the same episode 10 times so you can't watch more.

This show could be good if there were more variety, even Oggy and the cockroaches (which is repetitive too) has more variety than this.

I don't care if every episode plot it's the same if the jokes are different, but no, the jokes are the same in every episode!! With variations in the ejecution, but the jokes are the same

Not bad to watch an episode once a while, but it gets boring quickly if you watch 2-3 episodes straight.

Very well made & recommended for Tom & Jerry fans

[kevingarcia-83070 · 10/10 · 20 May 2020]

Got curious when Cartoon Network & Boomerang added this to their schedule. Turns out it has an almost similar quick and quirky attributes that a classic cartoon like Tom & Jerry has. The setting, graphics and characters are very well made. It may have some violence but it's generally not a concern.

Underrated and Fun for kids

[minxtraf · 10/10 · 11 February 2021]

Simple yet clever TV show on netflix for kids. Good animation and very entertaining. Give it a watch if you're looking for a fun and silly TV show for your kids

Grizzy and the Lemmings

[scubanick-49563 · 9/10 · 12 April 2021]

It is a great Canadian series based off Tom and Jerry except in the end they usually both lose. My son laughs so hard watching this show it's crazy and I do too sometimes. There are also around 80 something shows each season and two seasons so it doesn't get boring rewatching it, but I do hope a new season comes around soon. I wish they would make lemmings that are cheaper so I could buy one please make it so Studio Hari. Overall it deserves higher that 6.7 or whatever it is on now, but I can't be giving out 10's all the time. So if you have kids or you just smoked a joint check it out. Tabodi!!!

Kids love it but no redeeming qualities

[U2bum · 1/10 · 30 July 2023]

My boys and their friends love this show and I don't know why. They never laugh or get engaged while watching. They just sit and watch it, in silence, and get upset when we turn it off. There is no dialog in the show so the children are "stimulated" by noises and sound effects, and there are a lot of those. The noises are loud and repetitive and the interactions between the characters are nothing but battles back and forth. If that's your type of kid comedy, great, but I see no redeeming qualities in this show. I understand not all kids shows need to teach or be educational but this is the 100% opposite of that. Boring and repetitive.

Great cartoon

[wilk-99691 · 10/10 · 7 March 2021]

Like looney toons was to kids all those years ago so is the Grizzy cartoon to kids today. My 4 year old grandson has been loving it for over 12 months and still continues to watch all the repeats he's already seen. Lots of fun and totally innocent. No violence, no profanity (as there's little dialogue). What you would expect from a wholesome children's cartoon. Highly recommended

Generic and boring

[berntyngvehugo · 1/10 · 13 September 2020]

Watch Tom and Jerry instead. This is absolute garbage. Why? Because: 1. It is trying to ride off the minion craze with the lemmings 2. It's horrendously boring

Do yourself a favor and don't watch it

Hilarious

[Roma73 · 10/10 · 17 August 2021]

Absurdistic, crazy, cute, wildly funny. My child and I both love it. Big 10 for us.

By the way, I don't see the similarity - as some here are saying - to Tom & Jerry at all. This is so much more witty and intelligent, and funnier.

like it

[jdglpjdglp · 10/10 · 22 November 2020]

I like it. its good. sorry i had to make a longer review so i could make this review.

Perfectly goofy kid show

[lmot17 · 10/10 · 4 March 2021]

My 3.5 yr old LOVES this show. He is constantly laughing out loud and pretends he's grizzy. My almost 2 year old laughs at it too; whether she actually knows what she's laughing at is up for debate. It is a perfectly goofy kid show that I don't have to worry about content wise. It's my go to distraction for the kids when I need to cook dinner. Please keep making more season!

Worst, Yuck

[sparshj-88107 · 1/10 · 16 October 2021]

I'm not talking about the Canadian cartoon(No Commentry One) .Talking About Hindi Commentry(Indian). Yuck Yarr 0/10 Commentary/Dubbing Bear-Aalo mota bhalu Lemmings -Bulbulo The female bear-Maine No logic, Rest in piece logic Please don't telecast this show.

Literally it gave me a headache.

If there is an option of 0/10 I will give it an egg zero.

Brilliant kids cartoon

[chrisgarry-23882 · 10/10 · 24 November 2022]

This has gotta be 2022's Tom n Jerry.

The graphics are fantastic, the depiction of characters is perfect, the characters themselves are consistent and the theme plausible enough for all of the action and intricacies of the story to hang together.

Some of the reviews on here have made me laugh almost as much as Grizzy.

Adults need to understand the difference between a kids cartoon and a cartoon aimed at adults. GRIZZY & THE LEMMINGS IS AIMED AT CHILDREN.

So the criticism of every episode being the same is totally misplaced.

Children need consistency, this isn't South Park or The Simpsons, this is a simple kids cartoon where children need to know what to expect in each episode.

Every episode is supposed to be the same!

The lesson throughout Grizzy is that if only Grizzy and The Lemmings collaborated and worked together they would achieve their goal.

It is all about proving to kids that team work makes the dream work.

So for adults who are complaining this is boring, too bad.. this is not a cartoon for you - please get that into your head before commenting.

There are countless cartoons for adults at this point, but Grizzy is a classic aimed at kids, where in each episode the theme is identical but the details change and how the same story unfolds changes every time.

That's what young children need and what dials them in and aids focus. The last thing kids need is something complex where they need to follow a plot that evolves through multiple episodes.

The Creators of Grizzy have nailed it.

The imagination that goes into each episode, how the tremendous score carries all the action along and the subtle clues and hints as to what is going to happen next are borderline genius.

Easy 10/10.

cbbc's worst show yet

[pucciandpeppaevil · 1/10 · 20 February 2024]

It hogs the entire schedule to itself. It ruined saturday mash up. It is basically noises and squealing made into a show. It is basically the same every episode. And yet cbbc thinks THIS is quality programming over arthur or horrible histories. Looks like cbbc will have to live with this horrid nightmare of a show for the rest of its lifespan. It makes that weird show about animals at a cabana and a terrible baby spin off of a great canadian show look like disney in comparison. It has no morals. We lost arthur for it. It turned cbbc's schedule into the wasteland that it is today. Seriously. Its just that bad.

Cute for kids

[nlyoungblood · 10/10 · 5 July 2022]

I love this show. It is great for children. The show itself is a laid back comedy sketch that exists only for humor. It is not logical but at the same time it is free from all political motives, virtue signaling or any other manipulative insertions that are inappropriate for childrens television shows. The bear is on a journey to simply eat, enjoy life and get the attention of the local female bear wandering the nearby forest. The lemmings are a rambunctious set on a mission for fun.(It is often mischievous) Unfortunately lemming fun often collides with bears life plans and the following engagements between the two is always entertaining to watch. I do not mind it playing in the background nor do I mind if my kid is watching it. I would recommend. It has has zero talking and the sound effects are typically not annoying so that is a positive as well!

I laugh at this way harder than I should

[tiffanie_says_stay_in_your_lane · 10/10 · 18 May 2024]

I'm not the targeted demographic. I'm 31, and I don't have children, but it's become my personal enjoyment, when I need to give my brain a break and just want something silly to watch. I can see where some people think the creators stole the concept from Open Season, but it's a unique and creative storyline. A bear who makes himself at home in the house of a forest ranger whenever he's gone. He eats up the ranger's food, lounges around on the furniture, and uses the air conditioning when needed. Add in a gaggle of pesky creatures who are called "lemmings," and you have various unpredictable, goofy situations. I don't understand the negative reviews. But they also make me wonder if I should be concerned. Like am I crazy for laughing at something that has some kids staring expressionless at the TV screen? I don't see how it's repetitive. There is a pointlessness to it, in a sense that it's not educational. No lessons are taught, and it doesn't help with language, since the characters don't talk. They just make random noises. So I do understand why some parents think it's not doing anything for their child's brain growth. My brain has fully developed, so it's not going to cause me any harm. It's up to you what you allow your kids to watch. While it won't deprive them intellectually, it's not the most challenging program. Everything is okay in moderation. If you're worried about your child's brain, it's best to stop after a few episodes.

Awesome - Need To Watch!

[leslie_ranger · 10/10 · 18 June 2023]

This show is so much fun!! Our grandchildren love it and they laugh constantly. The boys are 5 and 7. This show reminds me of Wiley Coyote and the Roadrunner which we loved as children.

Story line: A grizzly lives in the Canadian north with a group of lemmings along with some penguins and walruses. This is pure slapstick comedy with no political junk, no language and just pure enjoyment.

It has very good writing and amazing graphics, and the characters remind me of the Minions. It is so wonderful to see something original these days. This is great fun and I'm hoping they make many more seasons.

Let's be serious for a moment.

[biancaestradamac · 1/10 · 5 May 2024]

If you scroll around this reviews you'll see that they're mostly 10/10 and some 1/10, I have no idea what is in 10/10 minds, this cartoon, at least for kids is a nono, many people compare it to Tom and Jerry so I will do the same here, it has the plot of the one big guy who hates the little one and they fight, so, what's the difference? None of them are educative, but why would I prefere Tom and Jerry? The way the episodes work are way more intelligent in Tom and Jerry, it's value is to entertain with cunning, here all what I see is another cartoon begging with bright colours, noises and dumb jokes to be watched by kids, it makes no sense and I feel like is some kind of waste of time to kids, eating content like it's bread, this cartoon is not any better than any morally dubious youtube video for kids.
