My children are aged 2 and 3. They both watched 'Lost'.
We watched on Sky and it was pretty straightforward to find.
I'd give ZooMoo 2/5, and think my children would give it 3/5. My son loves new programmes and channels, but 'Lost' didn't quite maintain his attention. My daughter watched about 2 minutes before going off to play.
I don't think that ZooMoo compares very well against other well known children's channels. It didn't quite seem as good quality as Cbeebies and others. That said though, it's always good to have another option.
Overall I don't think ZooMoo adds value.

What are the age(s) of your DCs that watched ZooMoo?

• Do you feel that ZooMoo adds value to your current Pay TV subscription?

Yes

DS is 3yrs & we have Sky. He watched 'Tiger Stripes', it was easy enough to find the programs. He gave it 3 stars & I gave it 2 stars, he got a bit restless & ask for something else half way through. It was ok but nothing amazing & didn't think it was very engaging overall.

I don't feel it compares very well as DS hasn't asked for it again & there are plenty of other programs which are more engaging. I don't feel it adds any extra value to our subscription

I would give it 4/5 My children gave it 5/5

• How do you feel ZooMoo compares to other well-known kids TV shows and channels available?

To be honest, not watched enough of them yet. Though when my children get enjoyment from something, I tend to as well. As for comparing, it was well thought out, kept the children interested which is a lot more than some do, and think it was well made, I think it fits in very well, maybe not miles better than their other shows that they watch, but on par. My youngest love their animals!

I more or less agree with him.

How do you feel ZooMoo compares to other well-known kids TV shows and channels available?

I quite enjoyed it haha, DS enjoyed it too, and it captivated his attention, but for him it's probably at the bottom of his favourites.

Do you feel that ZooMoo adds value to your current Pay TV subscription?

Not necessarily either way. I mean now that we've watched it, I don't think either of us would miss it if it was gone, but we don't hate it either. I find it quite interesting though, so could be something we can include in

Talk Talk (through the Sky channels provided) - easy to locate
We watched the one with the cat (sorry don't know the episode name)
3/5
My daughter wasn't over keen - she watched it all the way through but when I asked her if she wanted to watch another one, she wasn't too bothered.
I personally thought it was pretty equal to other kid's shows she watches.
No, sorry, it wouldn't add value to our TV subscription for us.

Age 4

Lost

Now Tv - it was easy to access

3 stars

It kept him interested for a short while.

It's a great concept probably needs a bit more interaction

Its informative the origami design of the characters is new. I found it okay it'll take time for my DC to get used to it. Dont think it adds much to subscription value.

My 3 year old really got a bit bored with it to be honest and I don't think it's something they would want to watch as series.

both enjoy the program? It was ok
Would you watch more ZooMoo TV shows? No
