The music by Simon Woodgate: It's not as good as the music by Bryan Daly. The theme song remix: It's a nice remix, but it's not as good as the original theme. Let's talk about the basics of Seasons 3-5. Some people at the BBC thought of either rebooting or continuing one of their discontinued shows for their CBeebies block, and decided on Postman Pat. It really is a sweet way to wrap up the whole series.īut no.

If they'd ended the series right here, and just left it where it was, I would have no problems. The end of the mystery tour was a fancy dress party.Īnd the last two minutes of the episode played an instrumental of The Proper Sound from Postman Pat and the Tuba. The series would've ended beautifully with the last episode of Season 2, Postman Pat and the Mystery Tour. The same reason Fireman Sam didn't have to continue after its 4th season. Let's start with the main problem with the 2003 series. Finally, in 2008, the hill turned on a 90 degree angle, and the series went crashing down to the ground. With Season 5, just when you think the hill couldn't get any steeper, it gets steeper. But starting with Season 3 the following year, the series started to go downhill. And with Postman Pat's Magic Christmas, the series still stayed on the hill. And with Postman Pat and the Greendale Rocket, 6 years after Season 2 ended, the series remained on the top of the hill. In 2003, Postman Pat returned with 2 new half-hour special episodes, and the following year, the show returned for a 3rd season. But, you can tell where this is going, can't you? To me, Season 2 was the best season of the show.
As impressive as it was that Ken Barrie was able to voice every character, it was for the better for Carole Boyd to voice all the children and the women (save Granny Dryden) from Postman Pat and the Toy Soldiers onward. The new characters were as interesting as the other characters.Īnd adding Carole Boyd to the voice cast was a fantastic idea. The animation was smoother, cleaner, more fluid, and better. The visuals were brighter, crisper, and more colourful. And I've decided to call the 1990s series the best part of the show, for similar reasons as to why I decided to call Season 4 of Fireman Sam the best. The following year, the show returned with two half-hour special episodes, a few years after that, the show returned with two more half-hour special episodes, and another 2D animated educational video, and a few years after that, the show as a whole returned for a 2nd season. In 1990, after almost 10 years of absence, Postman Pat returned with two 2D animated educational videos. Seeing all kinds of not-so-over-the-top problems. What also makes Postman Pat unique is the slice of life feel the show has. Ken Barrie voiced all the characters in this series! You can just watch Pat's bright red van drive through the beautiful countryside and the friendly village of Greendale, and admire the lovely music by Bryan Daly, and the voice acting by Ken Barrie, who also sang the theme song. While Pingu relies on fun-to-watch fast-paced animation,Īnd while Bob the Builder mostly relies on teamwork and building structures, While Fireman Sam usually shows the fire brigade having to deal with emergencies of any kind, While Thomas the Tank Engine usually deals with how stressful it can be to work in a specific industry, railways for instance, The one thing that makes Postman Pat different to shows like Thomas the Tank Engine, Fireman Sam, Pingu, and even Bob the Builder, is the feel of the show.
The show centres around a simple postman named Pat, who goes around the fictional mid-Cumbrian village of Greendale, delivering letters and parcels, and brings along his tuxedo cat Jess. The show premiered in 1981, and used stop-motion animation by legendary Ivor Wood, who also animated The Herbs, Paddington Bear, and The Wombles. Postman Pat is a British animated children's show, created by John Arthur Cunliffe, who would later go on to star in Rosie and Jim. Since I've ranted about Fireman Sam, I'll rant about Postman Pat. Ho boy! Don't make me do this! Please don't! I don't want to watch Series 3 of Postman Pat! Alright then. It's time to go on with talking about the downfall of another ongoing series.
