the berenstain bears (2003): where to watch + why i love it 🐻🍯

you can find the entire 2003 version of the berenstain bears on archive.org, right here! you can also find most episodes on youtube (just search “berenstain bears full episodes”, some episodes have been removed but most are there).

i’ll explain below the cut my favorite episodes, why i love it and how it helps with my inner child healing 🌻

first, some of my favorite episodes:

the giant mall : the bears head to the brand new big bear mall and learn a valuable lesson about sticking together! i love how silly papa bear is in this one

house of mirrors : a misunderstanding makes sister insecure about her ears, so mama helps her accept herself for the way she is. this episode is really comforting to me 🧸

that stump must go : papa tries to remove an old stump from the yard while sister and brother try to come up with a father’s day present. this one is silly and sweet (:

there’s 40 episodes, each consisting of two 12-ish minute episodes, so technically 80 total! they’re all great, there’s not a single one that i dislike.

next, some reasons that i love it!

i absolutely adore papa bear! as someone who grew up without a good father, it is really healing for me to see papa bear being such a good and silly father to his cubs. it’s honestly always a relief seeing him be kind to the cubs when they mess up, helping them whenever he can, and genuinely just loving them and being a good dad. if you don’t have a great relationship with your dad or if you just want to watch a show with a great father figure, this is a great option 💛

on a similar note, mama bear is lovely! she definitely embodies a familiar, comforting mother figure. she’s the type of mama who is always there to help or give you a hug.

there’s no aggressive gender stereotyping or gender roles! the cubs have varying interests, mama bear has her own business, there’s male and female bears in all types of professions, and there’s no stereotypical or fragile masculinity shown by any male bears. for the time (1998-2003), it’s really impressive!

there’s very little shouting, anger, and fighting. obviously these things can be triggering or upsetting, especially for someone who is regressed, so it’s good that there’s not much of that! in the original cartoon (from the ‘70s i believe?), there’s a ton of fighting and yelling so it’s really not good or enjoyable.

the music is so good! it features a violin/fiddle pretty prominently and it’s really pretty. it’s warm and cozy sounding. this contributes to the show’s overall cozy and comfy feeling!

overall, bear country (where the show takes place) has such a cozy, happy and simple feel to it. it makes me happy to watch and think about!

so theres some dissonance in the F13th fandom on whether Jason kills animals or not. Muffin from F13th part 2 is usually brought up as the main example that he does.

But I am strongly in the other camp on this. I do not think Jason would hurt an animal. And my proof is two fold. 1. Contrary to what most think. We know Muffin survived in F13th part2. In F13th part 3 during the news report (played by director Steve Miner) we get a recount of what happened in the 2nd film, where he only mentions 8 deaths. Meaning Paul Holt did survive and the ending wasn't just a nightmare of Ginnys. Muffin was there at the end, alive and well.

2. The man that has played Jason Voorhees the most, Kane Hodder is on the record saying.

Which is as canon as youre gonna get with F13th tbh.

So In conclusion, I think the Berenstain bears would be perfectly safe at CCL

OP made the original post unrebloggable, but I just wanted to say that according to Wikipedia; brother bear is ten years old, which means that mama bear gave birth to him when she was seventeen.
