If you go to the show's website, naturally you won't get anything negative about the show. Try TV Guide and parenting websites. I've always felt a mom's recommendation carried more weight than some stranger's opinion.
Personally, I love the Disney channel morning programming. They don't get political like PBS tends to do, and the shows aren't weird like Teletubbies. My son simply adores Handy Manny and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.

I agree with Amanda, the Disney channel is by far the best. Handy Manny, The DoodleBops, all of them are just fun for the kids to watch. I don't mind Nickleodean either, but some of the ones on there creep me out...like The Wonder Pets....*shudders*

noggin.com has an excellent information section on their programs and how they help kids. I think it's in the for parents area of their website. They are like preschool on TV and the Internet too.
Wonder Pets helps kids learn about different types of music, teamwork, and using the telephone.
Here is something from their parent pages about Franklin:
Franklin, which originates from the popular children's books written by Paulette Bourgeois, is an irrepressible turtle who, together with his forest friends, works his way through everyday dilemmas. Targeted toward children aged three to seven, Franklin learns how he fits into the world and how the world fits him. Like most children, Franklin learns by making mistakes. When he fibs, gets lost, or acts bossy, he usually finds solutions himself learning lessons the Franklin way.
Franklin comes face to face with situations common to viewers' own lives, like playing with friends, getting lost and learning to handle uncomfortable feelings. The program offers models of age-appropriate problem-solving, ethical behavior and management of emotions. By supporting viewers' appreciation of language use and story structure, programs like Franklin promote early literacy.

You can probably check out that show's website or even call the station it airs on.
