Emina O @RT63599689 Aug 26, 2025 My daughter (7 yo) thinks this is the best series ever. As an adult I find it funny and well done. Love the format. See more Benjamin L @RT36733671 Oct 7, 2023 The show is WAY smarter than you would think, though a bit corny See more REkz k @REkzkaRZ Jul 5, 2022 My USA kids, 5 & 9, have both rewatched this show many times. The characters are complex and dimensional, and the Aussie accents are charming. I've heard Season 1 & 2 enough times now that I know who did the "crime" in the first 5 minutes. I'm amazed that my children will happily rewatch the entire season. The writing is pleasant, the editing is slick, and the show of the tone is respectful of all the characters AND the viewer. I really appreciate that they pause the show to talk directly to the viewers -- it gives younger viewers a chance to interpret perspectives. Also, young Aussie kids are pleasantly literate and upbeat -- contrasting this with the media bombarding my children, this content is wholesome and intelligent. See more Robbie M @RT37520172 Apr 13, 2021 "The Inbestigators" is harmless and fun in its Scooby Doo-like elements, but is ultimately too corny and wholesome to entertain someone over 12 See more Sep 12, 2020 Well written and clever. The characters are fun to watch as they solved cases together. my family loves to watch and it's my daughter's favorite show. See more Jun 30, 2020 Really not Bad, really not Bad.
