Voltron 84 is Now Playing on Netflix #StreamTeam

Voltron Legendary Defender

It is no secret whatsoever that I am a huge fan of Dreamworks’ Voltron Legendary Defender. I have been since I first learned about the series coming to Netflix. I don’t know as much about the original cartoon because I didn’t get to watch it as often as I would have liked. Now there is a new series on Netflix that brings together the old and the new. It is called Voltron 84. These are 12 classic episodes of the original 1984 series, Voltron: Defender of the Universe. However, it just isn’t old episodes. Each episode will include intros from the creative minds behind DreamWorks Voltron Legendary Defender.

I came downstairs today to find that Andrew had, completely on his own, discovered Julie’s Greenroom. This is a brand new show starring Julie Andrews. This new show debuted on March 17th and I’ve been meaning to watch it with Andrew and Eva. He beat me to it and he absolutely loved it. how do I know, he watched the first episode 3 times today. Once on his own, once with me and once with my mom. I thought it was cute and my mother loved it. I think she liked it even more than Andrew.

The very first episode starts off and introduces the cast which consists of human characters and puppet characters including a puppet duck and puppet dog. The main point of the show is to advocate for the arts and the positive impact that creativity can have on every child’s life. There are even special guests including Idina Menzel, Sara Bareilles and Alec Baldwin to name a few. Idina Menzel was in the first episode.

the show is really cute and full of great information about the arts. The show is brought to life by the Jim Henson Company and looks to be something that will capture the attention of kids (and parents) everywhere. If you’d like, I have some Conversation Starters About Julie’s Greenroom. Continue reading A Focus on Strong Female Characters in this Month’s #StreamTeam Post
