what it is.
The show.
A Netflix animated series following Lucky, a young girl who befriends a wild mustang named Spirit in the frontier town of Miradero. Along with her friends Pru and Abigail, she goes on horseback adventures. Aimed at ages 5–8.
our take
“Spirit Riding Free features a likable trio of girls and celebrates independence and friendship. It falls to a D because the pacing is fast and action-heavy, with chase sequences and dramatic conflicts that push well beyond what we consider appropriate attention stimulation for young children. The target age skews older than our core preschool audience, which impacts developmental appropriateness.”
