The results are hilarious.<\/p>\n<p>Forky Asks a Question is a Disney+ original series consisting of very short (only three minutes) episodes. In each, Pixar animators and the voice cast of the Toy Story films worked together to show <a href=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/2019\/06\/spoiler-free-review-toy-story-4\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forky<\/a> trying to figure out the world around him.<\/p>\n<p>The series is rated G, and is appropriate for the entire family. But just like the Toy Story films are not just for children, but for the child in us all, the episodes are very funny, and it doesn\u2019t matter if you\u2019re a kid or not. Forky\u2019s innocence combined with the exasperation of the more mature toy characters around him make for some pretty silly moments.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-77662\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/SlinkyDog-400x320.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/SlinkyDog-400x320.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/SlinkyDog.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Slinky Dog on board the Disney Dream<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The dialogue and onscreen gags come very quickly, and you might find yourself missing one joke because you\u2019re too busy laughing at the one that came right before it. Because of this, the show has a good rewatch potential.<\/p>\n<p>Part of what is fun about this show is that the questions range from the serious and thought provoking (What is love?) to the downright silly (What is cheese?) and the attitudes of the beloved spork\u2019s friends are different in each episode. In fact, my daughter\u2019s favorite episode features one of the toys completely losing patience with Forky and dragging him around Bonnie\u2019s room to point out each and every item in the hopes that Forky will quit asking questions about them. (Spoiler alert: he doesn\u2019t.)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-77663\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/BuzzLightyear-400x320.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/BuzzLightyear-400x320.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/BuzzLightyear.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Buzz Lightyear at the Science of Pixar Exhibit<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Because of the very short length, this is a good show to watch with little ones who will undoubtedly yell, \u201cAnother one!\u201d as soon as one episode is over. All ten can be easily watched in one sitting. But it\u2019s also a good choice for little in-between palate cleansers during your day.<\/p>\n<p>There is no word on whether or not this series will get another season, but I certainly hope it does. The potential for future questions is enormous, and Forky\u2019s appetite for answers surely won\u2019t go away anytime soon. After all, when life gives you an seemingly unanswerable question, I can\u2019t think of a better place to get an answer than a child\u2019s favorite toy.<\/p>\n<p><em>Have you seen Forky Asks A Question yet?
