I don't let the kids watch a lot of TV, but when we watch it is usually Noggin - a kids' cable channel that is commercial free (except for endless commercials for itself). Programs include: The Wonder Pets, Dora, The Backyardigans (which I love), Wow Wow Wubsy (kind of cool and trippy), Max & Ruby (Zach thinks Max is hysterical), etc. There is one show, however, that totally creeps me out: Yo Gabba Gabba (cast shown above). The program's theme seems to be preaching submission and conformity in a very repetitive and amazingly hypnotic way. I'm seriously considering blocking it if I find myself still humming the six word songs on Tuesday. I'll keep you posted.
