Super construction worker Bob the Builder is here to save the day! And his helpful crew of machines wants to help! When Spud accidentally knocks off his nose, can Muck and Dizzy sniff out a replacement nose? Who knows? Maybe a mole in a hole. Then, it's Bob to the rescue when Roley the steamroller becomes a runaway "sleep roller." Can Bob rescue Roley before he flattens the town? Can Bob save a family of porcupines from being flattened? Can Bob fix everything? It's no prob for Bob, the can-do construction worker who always saves the day! (official distributor synopsis)

This is an undemanding mainstream animated series for the youngest audience with a slightly didactic focus, which neither in its script nor in its visual execution strays from the boundaries of a mass product intended for the international market. Overall impression: 45%. If nothing else, it at least teaches children that life isn't just fun, but also involves work, and things don't just create themselves. :-)

If you have a (very) young body at home (it really isn’t for girls) who can’t keep his eyes off cars, trucks, cement mixers, cranes and bulldozers, then you could do much worse in the field of series intended for the very young than with Bob the Builder who offers cute and clearly differentiated “this one does this and this one does that" vehicles to toddlers aged 18 months and up and for three-year-olds there is a little moral instruction which, unlike in similar programs for this age group, isn’t presented quite so stupidly. In this country, the series is spoiled by affected, infantile dubbing; it’s unwatchable. While the original is all-round fine in all respects.
