Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur

Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur is a loud, hyperactive kids show packed with frantic energy, heavy-handed messaging, and surprisingly little charm.

Rating Summary
Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur could actually be an entertaining program for children. It offers excellent animation and vocal performances, and it's fun. Unfortunately, it's also a miasma of wokeness propaganda designed to convince urban minority citizens that the police are apathetic to them, at best, and that they will forever be victims. It's riddled with liberal talking points that ruin anything positive that the show might have to offer.

The quality of Disney programming has been on a steady decline for a number of years. As their poisonous propensity for proselytizing woke propaganda in lieu of telling quality stories continues unfettered, and their bottom line continues to shrink, one can only hope that the once great beacon of creativity will again find true north. The question is, should Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur provide you with any optimism?

    Theres also a scene pretty sure where she meets a computer who is nonbinary. I dont generally have a problem with non living objects not having a sex because they don’t. But from what I’ve read it’s a full on gender non binary lesson
