| Charlie and Lola Okay, so South Park has a lot to answer for. It gave animators across the world the idea that cartoons could be produced on a shoestring budget. Shows like Charlie and Lola, Storymakers and many others show scant regard for any traditional animation values and instead punt out cheaply made ugly cartoons. Saying that, there is something endearing about Charlie and Lola. We hated it at first, but gradually, like a painful verruca, it has grown on us. The plot is straightforward. Lola is a hyperactive and annoying five-year old with a particularly vivid imagination. Mum and Dad have clearly given up trying to bring her up, and instead loll about on the couch watching Tricia whilst handing all parental responsibility over to big brother Charlie. Chaos ensues as Charlie desperately tries to enforce some sort of discipline on the household in his parents absence. The show is well observed and full of genuinely funny moments for both parents and children. If you can tear yourself away from daytime TV for long enough... Back to Parents Guide to Kids TV |
