Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

Blistering performances.

My 5 year old son, just loves your show. You seem to make a way to make each child in your audience feel they are special. I love the way that my child can not only use his imagination but his mind as well. Not only does he get your jokes, but I do as well. Your show is the one that I do not mind having on. My son just gets a kick the way you use the remote and interacts with him. He really laughs out loud the way you goto other rooms and is surprised with each one you goto. He does not have a favorite among you, as he loves you both. Thank you so much for such a wonderful show. I look forward to seeing more of it and seeing you expanding the many characters you have.

But honestly, no other word fits.These guys are hysterical; my kids turned me on to them, and I LOVE them. They are charming, witty, outrageous. The puns are atrocious - which of course means their fantastic. They were looking for a cow bell, and couldn't find one, so the one says to the other "Looks like you get the prize." "What prize?" "The No-Bell prize." I especially love the "instant replay" voice overs, done like golf announcers.It seems to have some similarities to shows like "The Monkeys," "Monty Python," and "Pee-Wee's Playhouse", but has developed its own style and flavor, so that it is nothing like any of those shows, but takes the best of all of them.If you liked Pee-Wee's playhouse, you will LOVE this show. If you didn't like Pee-Wee's playhouse, you will LOVE this show - because it has everything that was fun about the show, but none of the annoying things. No screaming, no talking chairs, no ugly suits. They do different voices, incredible physical comedy, great pantomime, and they're both cute.This show needs to last; it is truly remarkable.

It's all about using your imagination, which is absolutely the most important thing for young kids. As Einstein said, "imagination is more important than knowledge." The show is filled with endless creativity, including characters, concepts, and wordplay, that can entertain even parents.On top of that, the "Umbilical Brothers" - Shane and David - are amazing physical actors who can convincingly behave as though they are performing a variety of actions without any props. As someone who has worked with actors before, I know this is not a skill that comes easily.The humor is almost like Monty Python for kids. Even though it's Australian, it has a "British humor" sort of feel - lots of wordplay, fast motion scenes, etc.

My 18-month old nephew got me hooked on this show! Now my mom and I watch it even more than he does.These two guys are really creative and funny. They aren't Barney-like silly (no offense to Barney), so they can appeal to an older audience as well as to children.I can definitively say that no other children's' program is as creative and appealing as the Upside Down show! I'm so glad that American television shows this program. While we're all laughing, my nephew is learning a lot about shapes and colors, as well as cooperation and sharing. David and Shane are teaching their young viewers values and good behavior, which is another great thing about this show.It's a wonderful program, and I can't really say enough about it. You'll just have to check it out for yourself!
