Pizza Face, Mr. Potato Head, WTF

Being a little kid is so awesome. There are whole superstores dedicated to selling different things that you can play with. There is a WHOLE AISLE of Barbie's in Toy's R Us. If you watch the Nickelodeon during the day you will see 300 hundred ads for different cracked out kids toys.

There are also TONS of shows for you. Barney, Blues Clues, Dora the Explorer, Rugrats, etc. If there were as many great shows on tv for us adults(?) now as there were great shows when we were kids I'd never leave the couch.

Who remembers these guys?


Earboy and PIZZA FACE!-A little creepy, but mostly funny and hilarious.

                                                                    

                                                  Mr. Potato Head. So lovable.

I was getting my daily dose of two gay men saying hilarious stuff about celebrity gossip on D-listed  and found an example of how kids shows can go wrong. Kids in Australia are apparently being robbed of Barney and instead given this crazy substitute. Sure we can take off all of Mr Potato Head's body parts but we ALWAYS put them back! otherwise he's just a potato. and no one wants to play with a potato person with no person characteristics. And that is where these Aussies went terribly, terribly wrong.

What the HELL! What psychos thought trapping a baby in wet clay and suffocating it so that you couldn't see any of its features was a good idea?! Yes Australian little girl accents are cute but there is a limit. And WHY does that plant in the lobby have an eyeball? Someone needs to ship off the copyrights to Eureka's Castle to the children of Australia because I'm seriously worried about them. And now I'm going to have nightmares.

How great does Bruce Willis look naked?

    yes you just reminded me, teenNick is bringing back the golden oldies of our youth. Starting this fall from midnight-2am they will show a block of shows including Rugrats, Kenan & Kel, Pete & Pete, The Amanda Show, All That and Clarissa Explains it All. The block will be called "The 90s are All That."

    I can't wait for clarissa. i so wanted someone to climb in my window, even before dawsons creek.

    ALSO i love clarissa. perhaps because i was also obsessed with sabrina the teenage witch.

    "The 90s are All That" -- what a clever, awesome name, and why did it take them so long to come up with this concept? i hope they never stop the reruns.
