Foster, la maison des amis imaginaires

Let me tell you what sold me on this show: The title. "Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends" the TV listings said. Obviously, it was a show about a retirement-like home for imaginary friends who had, for some reason or another, worn out their usefulness. Then I turned it on and saw the pilot movie one afternoon. I thought it was the best new cartoon show I'd seen since "Invader ZIM" (although the shows are about as different as night and day).

Kids shows should look cute. That's just a rule. And this one brings fond memories of "Fairly Odd Parents" "Dexter's Laboratory" and other recent additions to the Hall of Cartoon Fame. The main character, Bloo, is just a blue blob, but he's a great character.

But the best part of the show is it's imagination. Obviously, a show about imaginary friends is going to have a lot to do with that, but I've always thought that a kids' show should be imaginative. And this show is very original.

Anyway, it's on Fridays at 7 on Cartoon Network. I hope you enjoy it. I think you will.

They get so many emotions out of such a simply drawn character ( bloo ). What a fabulous idea to do a cartoon about our imaginary friends. I think young and older alike will enjoy this toon. I'm almost 50 years old and enjoy this cartoon. The design of the characters, back-rounds and props is wonderful and creative. It's flash animation at it's best. It's whimsy with a touch of reality. I think kids and adults will love it and have turned many a friend on to it. I like cartoons that show kids that your brains count, that when your clever and smart you can achieve anything. I love the music as well. thumbs up for a great new show and congrats on the Emmy nomination.

A good show for the whole family to enjoy. Even for adults to enjoy... I think.

Well this might be a bit hard for me to review but I shell try as I have not watched this show for years.

Well this show is pretty much about this young boy called Mac who comes to this mansion where he meets this blue ink looking thing called blu and they become good friends. Mac also meets so many other good faces and I had a crush on Frankie the teenage bus driver when I was really younger.

The animation was decent, the voice actors were good especially since it had good genius like Tara Strong, Keith Furguson, Phil LaMarr and Grey Delise.

That's all I can remember about this show I am afraid but it was good regardless.

Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends is a very interesting piece indeed. It is extremely creative and funny, a combination of wit and humor. The storyline follows an eight year old boy named Mac (yes, he's eight, mistakes in the plot section) must give up his beloved imaginary friend, Blooregard Q. Kazoo, because his mother believes he has outgrown him, and Mac's older brother Terrence treats Mac like a baby. Mac stumbles across a large house belonging to Madame Foster, a childish old lady and her imaginary rabbit friend, Mr. Herriman, who keeps the place in schedule.

Bloo realizes that if he is put in Foster's, he would be up for adoption like the rest of the Imaginary Friends at Foster's, but in the end, Madame Foster allows him to stay in Foster's without being adopted, as long as Mac visits him every day.

Bloo meets many friends, such as tall, helpful Wilt, the injured one-eyed, one-armed 'basketball player' imaginary friend who always has a smile despite his painful past, Eduardo, a large, purple beast imaginary friend with a skull buckle, fangs, and large horns, but is afraid of everything that moves, and Coco, a strange bird-plant-airplane imaginary friend that only says Coco, but lays strange colorful plastic eggs that contain prizes.

In short, Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends is extremely creative and fun for the whole family, each episode has some strange wacky mix-up and a whole lot of laughs. The creativity of Foster's is unbelievable- Imaginary Friends coming to life as you think them. In my opinion, Foster's deserves a 10-10.
