Unbelievably appealing to very small children....

"Hello!" "Lets break it down!!!!!!!!" I am a physician and I usually base my opinions on hard data rather than completely subjective analysis..... I have to say that this show will appeal to very small children more than any other I have seen recently. This is an opinion, of course, but I have never seen any show capture the attention of a small child like this one. My son was born in July, and in September we were channel surfing and he caught a glimpse of Christian Jacobs' (Aquabats fame) and Scott Schultz' TV show, and he was transfixed instantly. We wondered if we were imagining things, so we would Tivo the shows and would turn them on during random points throughout the day and, honestly, he would stop his babbling, crying, cooing or whatever and watch, and I mean WATCH this show with intensity. He absolutely loves Lance Robertson and the PLEX and BROBEE characters. Here was a two and one half month old baby giggling and smiling while seeing these characters. Now that he is 5 months old I have to tell you that it is a favorite in our home, and NO OTHER TV SHOW anywhere on Nick or Noggin or any other cartoon anywhere else does this for him. I believe (opinion only here...) that it is the catchy beat of the show...very techno, awesome musicianship..., the smiling face of DJ Lance, the colorful characters PLEX, MUNO, FOOFA, BROBEE, and TOODIE, the funny drawings of Mark Mothersbaugh (former lead singer of Devo!) and the kind actions of the characters that our child is tuned in to. I can't wait until he understands what is actually going on, because the life lessons being taught here are better than in any other kids show I have ever seen. I have followed all of the kids shows over the years as I have several other older children, and I myself, would quickly get sick of all of the other shows due to the sickening songs being sung, the stupid babbling of the characters, the ridiculous costumes etc... This show is hip, sometimes retro, usually progressive, and is a fun quirky show and I have become a fan myself. I can't believe I just typed that! So give it a try if you have young children. You will not be disappointed. Thanks Christian and Scott for the best educational, fun, 'pacifier' I have ever seen!!!!!!!!
