I thought they were called Calinours in French?? I never heard of Bisounours!--Sonjaaa 22:40, Mar 6, 2005 (UTC)
Why on earth is there going to be an 'Amigo' bear? While I respect their desire to try and include other ethnicities wouldn't that really be 'Friend' Bear's name in Spanish? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.66.123.64 (talk • contribs) . --Slgrandson 14:28, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] movie not mentioned
I own the care bear movie called The Care Bears "Fabulous Fables". It has four short cartoons, one starring Cheer Bear and Treat Heart Pig. Grams Bear is showing videos to baby Tugs and baby Hugs that tell about their situations they get into inbetween each video/story she tells them. Why was it not mentioned? I have the original release from 1987 by Fries Home Video. The villians in the movie are Shreeky and Beastly in all the episodes. One stars Brave Heart Lion, one has Grumpy the Clumsy, and the last one has Champ Bear. It's on VHS. Has anyone else seen it lately or own another copy? Please let me know if you do.

[edit] Re: Movie not mentioned
This "movie" is not a movie, it is a series of VHS tapes of the cartoon series. There were several of them released in the 80s, and also recently they have been releasing on DVD as well as the VHS that came with the new bears. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.204.203.88 (talk • contribs) . --Slgrandson 14:53, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Symbol conflict
Thanks-A-Lot and Wish Bear cannot have the same symbols. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 134.250.72.179 (talk • contribs) . --Slgrandson 03:36, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] The List of Carebears
I think the list of carebears (and their cousins) should be split off into its own article. A short listing of main characters would be more appropriate for this article and would help keep the size down. --Hetar 00:25, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
Carebears are so awesome and its great for kids to teach them manners and good responsibility which would be good for when they start school!!!!
I think it would help if everyone one, even adults, watched Carebears it would help our society and how people act in the world instead of all this violence it could be love and happiness, and thats the way it should be. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 204.185.204.203 (talk • contribs) . --Slgrandson 14:53, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
If you look at the list of Care Bears it says that there is an Ameigo Bear, the only Spanish speaking Bear. I love Spain and all, I really do, but shouldtheCare Bears company be able to create a Care Bear representing a country? I know there is a Amiego Bear and a American-loving Bear like one but if they make two like that, why isnt there a African Bear or Asian Bear?Posibbly even a Middle Eastern one?Hope. 19:26, 10 June 2006 (UTC)hope. Hope, I agree with you. There shouldn`t be a bear representing a country. This opens the door to racist remarks, such as the African bear being called `Nigger Bear``, the Asian Bear being called ``Ching Bear``, and the Middle Eastern Bear being called, `Terror Bear``. Do we really need to break up the bears into nationalities? I don`t think so. F**K_YOU. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.225.141.138 (talk • contribs) .
- Adding ethnic-flavored Care Bears defeats the intention/message behind those characters--that caring about others (and expressing emotions in general) is a universal value. You also made a valid point when you observed that more ethnic flavors might encourage people to give those bears cynical, racist nicknames. ISNorden 01:05, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Minor expansion in "Around the World"
I've added the Bears' Swedish name (heard in passing on a dubbed video I saw there). Unfortunately, I don't know enough about the current status of the Care Bears to write a more substantial update. ISNorden 01:06, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Dummi Bears?
"The Care Bear characters have been parodied in other animated series. On Nickelodeon's Rugrats, the Dummi Bears spoof heavily on the franchise, especially with their "Sing a Happy, Happy, Happy, Happy, Happy, Happy Song" theme. "
I always assumed that the Dummi Bears were an amalgam of both the Care Bears and the Gummi Bears. Should the Gummi Bears be mentioned as well?
