I'm so glad I don't know who half of these kids charactors are! He was into Barney but that was about it. Now he's into spongebob, fairlyodd parents, etc...those are only slightly better!

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Barney is the DEVIL. I avoid him at all costs. I have actually run from another room to turn Barney OFF.

My kid likes the Teletubbies. I actually find them kind of creepy, but she loves them. The little baby in the sun gets her excited, and she points and claps and you'd think it was Christmas.

And be glad you don't know Calliou. I wish I didn't.  :censored:

I really like Spongebob, but I've noticed my preschooler likes to mimic squidward saying moron :thatsright: so we are a bit stricter on the spongebob. I love that stupid show too. sigh.

There are two particularly annoying shows on that my daughter likes: Foster's Home of Imaginary Friends and Chowder...shudder

Course as I have a girl I have a fair share of "Drake and Josh" and "Hannah Montana" to endure as well. :hammer: :-)

When my kids were really little a library near here closed.  I bought 20+ Barney VHS tapes for under a dollar each.  I had probably every Barney tape ever made at that point.  They had some really good ones too.  They teach values, morals, and important stuff.  Plus, if I put Barney on I could wash dishes, vaccum another room, or wash a load of clothes without having to worry for a single second that my kids brains would be polluted with some sort of crap.  I wanted to strangle Baby Bop but the kids loved her.  Even now in 2nd and 4th grade when it is cold they will sing "It's cold, brrrrr, I wish I had fur, I wish I was a bear with furry furry hair "cause it's cold!" :-)

Thankfully, I don't pay enough attention.

Although I do kind of like Suite Life of Zach and Cody.

my daughters were spaced out enough that we totally missed Barney, but I did have the Power Rangers with the older one. *sigh*

the younger one is all about Hannah Montana and American Girl and Webkinz.. and that's about it these days.
