Elinor Wonders Why

I saw the premiere yesterday and I liked it a lot. The overall aesthetic of this show is very pleasing. The backgrounds are gorgeous and look like they were hand-painted (just like the backgrounds in Harvey Beaks). The character designs are adorable and look like they came out of a children's picture book. The music, such as the theme song, is very calming. Not to mention the adorable voice acting, especially Markeda McKay as Elinor.

The show does a great job of explaining to young children how nature works and basic science concepts like observation. It's not the most clever show around, but this is for young children, not for the same audience as Arthur or WordGirl. Despite being for young kids, the show doesn't talk down to kids and instead talks to them on their level.

My only complaint is that our leads, Elinor, Ari, and Olive, all have the same personality. I guess Elinor is the leader, Olive is the smart one, and Ari is the funny one? I don't know. Hopefully they will be more rounded as the episodes progress.
