Children’s Shows May 23 2006

Filed under: General — pamalamadingdong @ 3:38 pm

I just watched a kids show with Noah. And it was…mildly odd.

First the main characters are a Giant mouse (I think, except it’s tail looks like a pile of hamster poop) and it’s pet cat that may have just had major abdominal surgery given the scar down the length of it’s belly.

ANYWAY today’s episode involved the fairy tale of the frog prince.

So the mouse (a boy mouse) starts with putting on lipstick and tries to convince this frog to kiss him. Frog is slightly disgusted and hops away. Meanwhile the cat (girl boy..no clue) is kissing a snail, who turns into various animals with each smooch.

The mouse on the other hand is getting no where with this frog, clearly not an easy frog. Dinner at least please! And the mouse consults the book. AH HA! He exclaims and scurries away for a brief moment. Meanwhile cat is getting ALL KINDS of action and has had to re-apply her/his lipstick many many times.

Mouse comes back dressed as a princess and the frog is all “oh yeah. Getting me some of that action” and hops sexily towards the incognito mouse. Until, the princess hat falls off and it is revealed that it was really just the mouse in drag.

The frog is NOT pleased..straight men HATE being tricked like that. And he stomps away to the cat who kisses an elephant and it turns into a frog. The two frogs kiss and turn into snails and slime away in the sunset.

The mouse calls it a day and decides to read a new story.

“Once upon a time there was Queen. OH I LOVE QUEENS!”

I swear!

edited: thank you feffie..that song has been stuck in my head since last night.

I hate you a little bit.

It’s amazing, the jokes kid’s show writers pull when they know it’s going to go right over the kids’ heads.

MY favourite kid’s show? (not that you asked) “This is Daniel Cook” - I want to be Daniel Cook! And the one I think is VERY WIERD, cute, yet impossible to turn off? (not that you asked this either) Pocoyo.

Kids shows are SO strange. I remember watching one with Bren..with a tiny little pink elephant and a flying pig or something,
and the song:
“if you need adventure this you start
ifyou need a hero who can play the part
the little packaderm with a great big heart”
remember that one?
At least they weren’t in drag…and slutty
