contactacb The good points are my daughter loves it and it does provide rudimentary lessons in maths and allied subjects. It's not the most polished production, but appears to entertain well, although would seem a bit repetitive (just watch the hour long marathons on the programmes official YouTube channel!) Younger viewers may be put off by some of the enemies in the show, the two that are the most unusual are the Number Taker, who dresses like an Albino Mad Hatter, but has the menace (albeit silent) of the Child Catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang; and the Puzzler, who is a CGI floating bald bearded head with glasses who sounds & looks like what you may imagine an internet groomer to look like and has a laugh that is a bang on impression of Sid James from the 'Carry On' films! Honourable mentions to the Problem Blob, who spews 'Kids TV gameshow green goo' everywhere and to see has to regurgitate his eye on a stalk through his mouth; Spooky Spoon, who is a Margo Leadbetter style posh talking, well, spoon..; and the Shape Japer, which is an even more basic CGI cobe/sphere (alternating) with sharp teeth and evil eyes!

inigopointon cheese fest with mind-numbing sound effects and laughably bad CG and acting creepy villains by far the best thing i have ever seen the villains include a pink talking spoon that steals cutlery that is apparently 'spooky,' a blob that shoots slime called the problem blob, a floating head that captures people in orange bubbles made from his own bodily fluids until they can solve a puzzle called the puzzler, a psychopathic man that kidnaps numbers and keeps them in a vacuum cleaner for all eternity named the number taker and last but not least the illiterate shape changing ball called the shape Japer. oh did i mention the buddy blocks, blocks that are the buddies of the numbers... or children... or parasites... or maybe souls... how the hell should i know

georgehogg Numberjacks is good for kids, but aside from that, it is rather devoid and not really worth mentioning. It has boring characters and predictable story lines, and has a hard-to-look-at animation style, which does not blend very well with the real-life segments. The voice acting is passable at best, but in the positives, it is a decent use of mathmatical teaching to young children, and it let me embrace mathematics with open arms as a child, but there are better programmes to teach children maths and other educational topics, so if you have a child, you might as well just skip this. (But you probably will never ever read this, ever, as this series has the fandom of a dishcloth.)
