WHAT ARE THEY SMOKIN?

YO GABBA GABBA....WHAT IN THE HELLLLLLL?



So my 2 year old son kinda likes this kids show Yo Gabba Gabba that started back in 2007. It has lots of music, bright colors, funny characters and actually does teach some good things, sharing, healthy snacks, exercise, love of music etc. It was created by a memeber of the group the Aquabats, so you know he has to be a little weird to begin with, but after watching this show you have to wonder what they are smoking.

The show stars DJ Lance Rock who is a skinny ass dude wearing an orange jump suit with a furry orange kanga hat. He carries a big freakin 80's style boom box where 4 creatures and a magic robot live in and are brought to life when he yells YO GABBA GABBA.

They sing and dance and play teaching about sharing, not cutting in line, eating healthy, trying new foods, exercising, resting, and so on.

Mixed in with all of them are short animated clips with songs from such groups as the Shins. They have Happy Music Fun time whith groups performing such as the Aggrolites, the Aquabats, and others. They also have Dancy Dance time where Elija Woods and Tony Hawk and the dude that played Pedro in Napoleon Dynamite among others show up to teach the crew a new Dancy Dance.

Oh it gets even better, ocassionally Biz Markie drops in to give the beat of the day. My son laughs at this. Also, Mark Mothersbaugh draws a picture of the day, usually quite poorly. He looks like a kookie old uncle, draws the picture, usually a cat or dog or potato bug, then the drawing walks off the paper and he jumps in surprise and goes after it.

You watch this show and go what the hell was that, but all in all it is a pretty good kids show with out being all kiddy and annoying.

Check it out, it comes on Nickelodeon and Noggin, or on you tube I think there are videos posted there.
