To be honest, I only tune in for the opening and ending music depending on the season, mostly the third and fourth seasons. I don't know who the targeted audience is, but I would not recommend to kids under thirteen....well I don't know if I would recommend it at all.I'm not a parent but the outfits bother me a lot as well as the transformation moves they do when transforming. It's too sexual in my opinion. There is a complaint, that their bodies are too skinny and unrealistic. That isn't my problem. It's just the clothes. You want to make tall, skinny girls, fine. But put them in clothes that fit. They don't need to constantly wear things that show their entire midsection or as much leg as you can without showing their private areas. It's ridiculous. Even their boyfriends sometimes seem to wear clothes that can't fit them as you can see their stomach a bit. Not as much as the girls but it is another example that tall people seem to have a problem finding clothes that fit.Which is ironic and hypocritical since there is a lot of talk about "fat acceptance" and how overweight people need to wear clothes that fit. Then it should apply to skinny people and that should show in cartoons like this.For me as an adult, the show is not my cup of tea because I like romance and this show focuses on it as little as possible. There is a video of all the kisses in the entire series and it is only two minutes and not even what I would call a kiss half the time. So yeah no. Not for adults who are looking for something with depth. But at the same time for it to be aimed at kids seems inappropriate with the clothing and some of the problems the girls have relationship wise. I honestly think half of their arguments are ridiculous.-Brandon is kissed on the cheek by another girl and Stella gets mad at him. -The guys go to help the girls find the last fairy and they get mad thinking the boys think they can't do something.If anything, the only message the show sends is the power of friendship and girl power as the so-called specialists always seem to need help fighting as their girlfriends are the only ones with powers. So yeah I can sense a bit of a sexist thing going. On the friendship part it could be aimed towards girls, but the skimpy clothes, are you trying to make it appealing to boys too, or are you trying to show girls they can only fight wearing next to nothing?

While the girls may not be drawn the best, they are NOT anorexic in anyway. In fact, there is a big foodie in the group. Still, the show is very entertaining.This show's best seasons (in my opinion) are 2 and 4 so I recommend you watch them. In fact, I recommend this show in general. I don't understand why it receives so much hatred- it has good messages, good action and is quite enjoyable.The only downside is that I dislike Bloom- yet I still think this show deserves a 10/10 I recommend this show for people who like shows about heroes and people who like fantasy shows!

Too be honest, I never cared very much about this series. Some years ago, I saw a couple of episodes from it and I found them to be completely unremarkable in one way or another.The animation isn't anything special and the character designs weren't frankly my cup of tea.The plot had some potential, but the characters (both good and bad) were so bland and generic that I couldn't care about them. The entire cast from "Winx Club" was made of one-dimensional clichés: The main girls and their romantic interests were practically "perfect", while villains were just plain evil without any single element that could made them at least remotely interesting. Even those Saturday Morning Cartoons based on toys had better and more memorable characters than this boring and forgettable show. I would dare to say that even the corny Barbie movies had more "personality" than the "Winx Club". Not that I like them very much.

I am a guy who pays attention to a good story. And the creators are very good at what they do. They import many neat sequences and story with fairies.i watched it when it appeared on 4kids TV and I actually enjoyed it. The nick one isn't that bad either. It is focused more for girls but the story in all seasons are so neat. The creators are creative and went on to make another cool TV show. They make the characters like the fairies and specialists attachable. Thereare common teen elements throughout that; are real life situations. The editors and writer's make you care for them which is extremely hard to do. I know this is strange but watching a season of winx was like watching a season of 24. Every episode is consecutive n continuous. Not a lot of shows have that. This one is special. As I said the story is well crafted and smart. And this is definitely a good watch.
