Dear Canada: Please, for the love of god, take back the Doodlebops

[dolo amber]

They frighten me. :scared: :cry:

1. Could be worse. They could be British and you would be back to

saying 'pip pip cheerio' all the time.

[dolo amber]

5. I dunno, dude

They're really, really scary. Plus while searching for a pic to post I noticed a LOT of fundy wing-nut mom blogs linking to them. Which just jacks the scary factor up about x10. :scared:

2. Why is the one on the left smoking a bong?

:shrug:

[dolo amber]

6. Duh, that's the drummer

:eyes:

[CottonBear]

3. They scare me too. They're Canadian?

:scared: They're freaky and not in a good way. :(

[dolo amber]

11. They *sound* Canadian, and their site has

a US or Canadian option. Y'know, because of the...language difference...? :shrug:

4. They're evil, plain and simple

Tavernertoddler loves them

[dolo amber]

7. This was my first experience

She's usually locked into Nick but apparently wanted a change of pace today. :scared:

8. What the Hell is that? nt

[mtnester]

13. Oh DAMN that reminds me of the Steve Martin/Bill Murray skit

WAYBACK on SNL..

"What in the hell is dat?"

[dolo amber]

15. Digital torture

9. OMG, I'm really glad I don't have kids!

:) They'd never get to watch anything "good" because Mommy would be throwing things at the tv and/or screaming in pain when things like the Doodlebops, the Wiggles, Bananas in Pajamas, Barney, Caillou, and SquareBob PantLoad are on. :puke: My death list is not limited to these particular shows.

14. I am a connoisseur of both fine and crap kids TV

I really love a lot of it. This is not one of them. This is a really bad Sid and Marty Krofft wannabe. x(

[NewWaveChick1981]

16. I like most of the Sid & Marty Krofft stuff, though not all.

I guess that was a result of growing up in the 70s. :P A bad Krofft ripoff would be terrible, though! :scared:

[RedStateShame]

10. Q: Who are the Doodlebops....

...and is there any way we can agree to keep them IF we get Sloan as well?

[dolo amber]

18. That might be an equitable trade

:D

Nice compromise...you should run for office. :thumbsup:

[malta blue]

12. Can we put them in a boat and sail them along the coast

back to Canada?

Jeez, they are really spooky - and Lil MB really likes them too!
:scared:

[dolo amber]

19. Makes me long for the time when the weirdest kids show

was Teletubbies. :scared:

[miss_american_pie]

17. Oh please yes

those things are freaky

[dolo amber]

20. They're very glassy-eyed too

Someone should check missing persons reports.

[terrya]

21. Ok

I'm up here right now...in Toronto.

I'll see what I can do.

[dolo amber]

22. w00t!

:bounce:

Say hi to IntravenousDemilo for me!! :hug:

[terrya]

23. Will do!

He's at work right now...but I'll pass along the hi. :-)

:hug:

[Magrittes Pipe]

24. And me!

Have the fun! :hi:
