I got to see Sesame Street yesterday. I was simultaneously elated and disgusted. Did you know The Count has a girlfriend and was out with her in public? It's shocking, and wrong. The Count should not associate with others. It is not his role. However, they still have the segment with the hotel and the girl rings the bell and says, "Bellhop!" and then she tells him what she needs. I like that segment.
Sesame Street is not my gripe this week. The honour of that title belongs to the programme known to all as "Boohbah". For those who don't know what Boohbah is, count your blessings. I spent half a day in front of their evil website, and only managed to avoid about half of the episode in the afternoon. This television show is not right. At all. Ever. Fluffy, sparkly, fat creatures that think they can dance (but can't) occupy the screen for more time than I can bear. So avoid Boohbah and avoid the website. Also avoid anything with the title, "The Fairies".
The floor is now open for complaints on all television shows, children's or otherwise, that are no good.

kids programs these days are so politically correct...and that just stinks. there arent any ridiclously awesome shows like "Rocko's Modern Life" and "Ren and Stimpy" anymore. they were classics. "Cat-Dog" does ok, but all these imported shows from the UK gracing the ABC in the afternoons...makes me feel betrayed by what used to be my old friend (television). and why does Play School now have a really lame and boring and dumb intro song? its all lah-di-dah fancy-high-pitched-singing now. i remember when i saw George from Play School live. that was cool. he was a cool guy. so was Monica (well, a cool woman, not a guy). John kinda scared me coz he always seemed so grumpy, but i grew to like him after a while. Colin, now he was, and still is a pretty cool cat. i also loved "Ferry Boat Fred". why does nobody else remember that show??? it was a great aussie one, set in Sydney Harbour for crying out loud! Fred's captain was a koala who was always asleep at the wheel, and the first mate was a pelican who couldnt shuttup! "Budgie" was a show that i loved. i still remember half of the theme song. but im gonna stop now, and get back to my geography homework. catcha ya later the supertiph!

I hated Budgie the stupidly lame helicopter. Helicopters shouldn't have moustaches and lipstick (definitely not together, but neither should separate helicopters have these features). I remember Ferry Boat Fred, vaguely, but I do remember it. But Sean@ I said the floor was open for complaints, not remembering. That's next week's topic. Try not to skip ahead.
Forever teaching, your preceptor SuperTiph.
Power Rangers are dumb.
So's High Five.
no remembering allowed eh? well, i'll give you some complaining then, oh preceptor supertiph.
thomas the tank engine used to be a show that i could sit down and watch and love and hum the theme music. now theres all this new stuff, and a different and less cool narrator.
also, lift-off is gone. that makes me angry and sad. what also makes me angry is the show entitled "fairly odd parents". and basically every show on nickolodeon and nick jr. all their shows stink, except spongebob squarepants. also, really terrible shows that i do not recommend to anybody, are all the old cartoons made by Hanna-Barbara (the scooby-doo producers) that tried to cash in on scooby-doo, like "captain caveman" and the old "josie and the pussycats". those shows were terrible, but shows like "wacky racers" just plain ruled. there was another show i wanted to complain about because its not being shown on air anymore, but i forget. when i remember, i'll come back and mention it. till then...keep watching the skies....
i remember now! im angry that Roger Ramjet is gone! waaaaaaa....*runs off crying and singing the theme song which he somehow remembers almost word for word*
