PJJC: I think it would be really funny to watch kids' movies with you!
I have to admit I'm only good company if you like someone laughing hysterically and talking to the screen. I'm one of 'those' kind of people.

Franklin to me is just incredibly SLOW. It's just so..mild is a good word. Do something!

I'll tell you one show that was absolutely stupid. Oobie! I can't stand that dumb hand with a pair of eyes on it. I don't understand what they wish to teach with that show.

Just like Elmo, that stupid hand always talks in third person.

Grandpu like Inka

Oobie, you, friends!

Oooh...Elmo. I HATE how he has a goldfish in a bowl. How many kids beg for a goldfish after seeing that? How fish have died choking on their own waste as a result? I really hate it when kid's shows have characters being irresponsible with pets.

Worst of all, have the time, the film while the fish looks as if it's sick or possibly dying.

Has anybody saw the show Jack's Big Music Show?

If so, that' was a great show that taught about appreciation for musical instruments.

Oh I used to LOVE that one! That and Backyardigans were the 2 I could stomach to watch along for reasons that did not involve irony LOL. I also got a kick out of SuperWHY for some odd reason. Are those shows still on?

SuperWHY is definitely still on - my 4yo loves it! I think it's very cute. I also like "Between the Lions" which is another show focused on reading.

Shows that I watch with the kids:

Spongebob
Phineas and Ferb
Beakman's World
The Brady Bunch
The Electric Company
Word Girl


There are others they watch alone because I personally don't like them.
