Hop on the Magic School Bus....360!

Netflix is rebooting Magic School Bus guys!

Netflix and Scholastic Media announced Wednesday they will join forces to launch a new series for kids, based on the award-winning '90s hit “The Magic School Bus.”

The only problem I see ahead (besides the name) is the following:

The new show, titled “The Magic School Bus 360°," will be a CGI re-imagining of the original series. The reboot will feature a modernized Ms. Frizzle and her class, along with a new bus equipped with some inventive and high-tech equipment to help a new generation of kids explore the world of science. The 26 new episodes will be available to stream on Netflix in 2016.

CGI kid shows rarely ever look watchable. Granted, the kids who see them will be just as entertained by the blocky budget animation while they are learning, but I don;t think this is something that parents (or the rest of us) will be able to sit through. We'll have to wait and see.
