SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

smooth_op_85 This show revolves around a young boy named Will, who's about 7 and loves to play outdoors, has a friend named Dewitt and his Grotto pals include a turtle, raccoon, frogs, 3 kois and other kinds of animals he calls his friends. Will and his Grotto pals sing a lot too . The frogs (Croak Bottom Boys) double as the band So, the situations are very much the same kinds of situations one would experience: Keeping secrets, trying to do things you may not be ready for, wondering if you can do certain things, etc It may not be the most intelligent or forthcoming or realistic (honestly if cartoons were realistic I might not watch them, I see enough reality) but it's cute and nostalgic. It makes me long for simpler days when kids did play outside and the worst I had to deal with seems silly by today's standards. Will and Dewitt might be a huge hit with Christian fundamentalists because by all counts it is pretty sanitary and great for little eyes and ears.

abrown975 This is, quite frankly, a boring show. It stars a young child named Will who has a shape-shifting (Why?) frog named Dewitt. It's not pronounced "DeWitt", it's pronounced "Do it". So it's obvious that the frog helps Will "do" things. Why the producers thought that children aren't smart enough to determine that on their own is beyond me. They should have maybe picked a catchier and less obvious name. But anyway, Dewitt helps Will make the right choices through badly written songs (Just listen to the theme song) and boring scenarios. One scenario was where Will had a pair of pants that he really wanted to wear, but he didn't want to get them dirty. So he must choose whether he wants to wear them or not. For some reason he can't make up his mind, even though it's not a hard thing to choose and he and his annoying little talking forest friends (and "Do it", of course) are just making a complicated situation out of nothing, as an actual child isn't as incompetent. How? They sing a badly written and annoyingly childish (even for five year olds) song so appropriately named "Decisions". Not only is this a song one would find on Barney, but at least on Barney a song like that would have a good reason behind it (Ironic, this is Barney I'm talking about, which is to say Barney is more appealing than this show.). But why do they sing this song? Because Will cannot choose whether he wants to wear his pants or not. This is either lazy script writing or the producers don't think the kids are smart enough to handle situations like that. Either way, my neighbor's kids don't like it. When watching them for the parents, I was changing the channel asking what they would want to watch. I came across "Will and Dewitt", asking them if they wanted to watch that. The oldest one, being five years of age, just looked at the screen and said "No, it's a dumb show. It's not funny and it's boring all the time. It's for one-year-old babies." Those were his exact words (Give or take, but I know he said it was unfunny, boring, and for "one-year-old babies".). The other child, being three, just ran away to do a puzzle. So in conclusion, Will and Dewitt (remember, it's "Do it", not "DeWitt") is painfully dumb. It babies the children, it is painfully unfunny, the songs and scenarios are dull, babyish, and lack and imagination whatsoever, and it insults the intelligence of children. Let your child watch something that has better writing and is less babyish, like "Teletubbies" or "Barney", and no, that's not a joke.

Courtney Wolfson While we appreciate your comment, tommypezmaster, I believe you might have missed the point with Will & Dewitt, or perhaps it is aimed at an age group younger than yourself. True parents watching this show with their young children will see that it is a well designed series about "firsts" as Will and his friends explore situations and learn lessons about growing up, and Dewitt's silly antics and songs in each episode add some fun to the educational value. In the episode you referenced "This Just In", Will learns a lesson about telling truthful news in the end. Your recommendation to "talk to a shriek" (shrink?) upon seeing this show is unnecessary. The show's main objective is NOT to make fun of everything educational. In fact, the production company's mandate is to create content in the edu-tainment genre, and this show, like all series, goes through a critical and thorough screening process of Broadcast Standards & Practices by professionals, at each phase of production. If it was not deemed educational or appropriate, it would not have gone to air.

tommypezmaster Of all the shows out there, why this one? For starters, it is about this gay boy named Will and he wishes to not worry about stuff, but always does the exact opposite. I remembered this one episode when during an assignment, he wanted to do a news story, but he made up his own stuff. WTF? You call that educational? He would've failed his homework from school & got an F and he should. This completely contradicts what Will & DeWitt is trying to accomplish.Besides the loathsome plots, there is Will's gay enemies that I just can't stand. Also, he is a missled child that will do anything from letting his friends mistreat him.If you are a true parent (along with you kids), avoid this show at all costs! If you watch it accidentally, talk to a shriek. This shows main objective is to make fun of everything that is educational and I don't like it. Not even The Mighty B! makes fun of Education that bad. The creator should be forever shamed for putting this show on the air. It even makes Lil' Bush look good. Just say no to this and watch GoGoRiki or Catscratch.
