YMMV / Pocoyo

Go To

  • Archive Panic: The original show has 184 episodes and 2 moviesnote , on top of there being at least two spin-offsnote .
  • Diagnosed by the Audience: Theres a large portion of viewers that interpret Pocoyo as an autistic child due to traits such as rarely speaking in sentences longer than one or two wordsnote , having trouble with social cues, and occasionally experiencing motor issues. He also hyperfixates on horses in "Horse!" and his sudden tumbling around and hat flap wiggles resemble stimming.
  • Funny Moments: At least one every episode.
    • “Noise to my Ears” has Pato trying to sleep so Pocoyo, Ellie and Baby Bird decide to sing the duck a lullaby. Unfortunately, their definition of a lullaby is anything but peaceful.
    • The creature that hatches from the egg in “Pato’s Egg” turns out to be not a bird but a spider to everyone’s shock. Though it also becomes sweet once everyone comes around to the baby spider.
    • The back and forth with the junk in “Not In My Backyard.” It gets better when Pato decides to push the junk into the sea which the Narrator quickly calls him out on.
    • All of the creations Pocoyo makes in the “Mad Mix Machine.”
    • “Pato Underwater”:
      • After growing frustrated when nothing that he brought is ruined, Pato throws a fit... Only to realize that even his tantrums are affected by the water.
      • Pato decides to eat underwater only for the dish he gets to be unappetizing so he decides to try to get the audience to eat it. They refuse and ask the Narrator to eat the meal but he states that he just ate.
  • Fountain of Memes: As the show surprisingly has Multiple Demographic Appeal, the show's Narrator is becoming more and more quotable through the years. Pocoyo's Surf Dance has also become a fairly big meme trend.
  • Germans Love David Hasselhoff: Created in Spain, it has a really big following in the UK, partly thanks to Stephen Fry being the narrator.
    • The show is also having a bigger following in other parts of the globe, particularly in Japan, probably due to its cute art style.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight:
  • Periphery Demographic: In the UK, the show has a following among the 18-30 group due to the narration being done by Stephen Fry.
  • Suspiciously Similar Song: The episode "Musical Blocks" has a bit of music that sounds a lot like "Highway to Hell"... oddly enough.
