not funny or cute...just report please
I really wish these videos weren’t made for 4 year olds. Love CR, but this style of video of lame comedy needs to go.
If these guys don't win an Oscar then something is seriously wrong with the world.
I love CR, but man these videos are hard to take seriously. It feels like their inspiration is a cross between Bill Nye & Popular Mechanics for Kids.
I loved watching bill nye the science guy as a kid
I am so embarrassed for you. Terrible video. Just the facts, please.
Bear repellent test: "We pay volunteers to put on the bear repellent and if there is a confirmed eat in any of the sessions it is a fail"
Awful
*Jack is like the Great Value version of Key from Key&Peele*
That normal human being had to play along with Jack's romper room antics at the end. Good lord...
What has happened to CR?
*That Mosquito was trying to give you some but you didn't catch the vibe she was throwing out*
So the takeaway is... use mosquito repellent? That was so worth sitting through this painful vid.
Start at 2:51
we have new mosquito in town they call it tiger mosquito which one is good for that? pleas thank you
Honestly fascinated by your repellent testing, I didn't realize how you actually went about doing it.
But for the love of God, stop with the corny bits. These video aren't aimed at kids, they're aimed at adults. Please stop.
Is repel insect repellent safe to use?
That would freak me out
Jack needs to go. These videos are painful.
Sigh...
NO
There are claims that Avon "Skin So Soft" acts as a good repellent.
Any comments from anyone?
So they do more testing on insect repellents than they do on prescription medication?
Dude forgot his lunch now bear going get it
This was CRINGE. Is CR for kids now, or are we catering to a dumbing down of society? Even as a kid I'd hate this, Mr. Wizard never acted like a clown. ...And they never gave any info on the products or how long they lasted.
Please stick to the informative content and leave the actor at home.
Just skip to roughly 2:45 in the video if you just want the useful information.
Now that Joan left the giant mosquito is coming back for his sandwich since he left it
Is this made for kids? I just want information, not a cartoon.
I’ll give that mosquito something.
This...told me nothing. o.O
I've commented elsewhere to the effect that CR is trying WAY too hard to make its videos more entertaining. Bad decision. People who respect CR and have concerns about such issues as how environmentally friendly insect repellents will not be pleased with gimmicky videos. Sober up, CR, and treat your audience with more respect.
Agreed. Get sober, CR!
These clowns belong on a children's show. Actual content starts at 1:45
Love these videos
god that was annoying, jesus
DEET IS NOT SAFE. why was no recommendation for a natural repellent recommended with citronella, eucalyptus, rosemary oil, etc? I use one from Whole Foods that has essential oils that is effective. Is CR paid off to say DEET is safe, instead of recommending essential oil based repellents?
Perhaps because they didn't have the chance to test any repellant comprised mostly of essential oils. Besides, it would be somewhat of a risky move because a number of essential oils have the capacity to cause irritation to some individuals. I suspect that when they make a recommendation, they make a recommendation that they think willsuit everyone, no matter their skin type or sensitivity.
I prefer to use non-toxic products with minimal ingredients too, but depending on the composition of those products it can be difficult for one to find a repellent suitable for them. It took the longest time to find a non-toxic repellant for my father with eczema.
Why do you think essential oils are safe, just because they are natural?
@@jessicah3450 Good point. While I would assume they are compared with chemicals, it's quite possible that my assumption is incorrect.
Really disappointing. Goofy humor for toddlers, and no real information. Who is your demographic?
Funny sketches. Corny and cheesy but appreciate it.
