i love are you afraid of the dark. :) i remember this episode where a kid wishes he could be in a mall forever, and gets trapped inside it. actually, he got trapped inside the pinball machine in the mall's arcade and he had to play over and over again.
Yes, it's not scary. It's very very dark..

I used to read every issue of it on Sunday newspaper. I admit that being a kid, we are an explorer of this world. We used to find new things, we even hurt other people without noticing it, but the best part is, our parents are always there to guide us, no matter how difficult for them to raise naughty kids like us.

A cute little boy who frequently getting himself into trouble at every turn. A very funny and adventurous series that would definitely catch the eye of viewers especially children.
