I hate them all. Bland, humorless, lobotomized celluloid abominations says I.

Except for Spongebob. He's pretty funny.

I watch him when the girls aren't home sometimes. (Did I really just write that?)

Fortunately, when I upgraded the satellite package a few months back I started getting Boomerang. Boomerang plays all old cartoons. Stuff like the Pink Panther, Tom and Jerry, old (good) Warner Brothers stuff etc etc.

Now my girls watch the cartoons I watched. They still like a couple of the others (Dora mainly) but the vast majority of that cracker-dry, politically correct, inane drivel they used to watch is behind us now.

Except for Spongebob. He's pretty funny.

But to answer your question... No. Sadly, there is no cure for their wretched little themes and songs. They haunt me to this day -and I haven't seen a second of one in months. You just gotta smash 'em down in that little hole deep down inside of you with everything else you hate.

That's what I do anyway.

Mike and freehits - I agree. With 2 under 5's taking up most of my day, all of those that were mentioned get on my nerves and with the Wiggles, well talk about picking up inbreds! And its obvious that Greg (in the yellow) dyes his hair!

Maisy Mouse has gotta be worse than the Teletubbies by far. That is so mind numbing, I used to fall asleep watching it.

Still they're repeating Rainbow on in the evenings (UK show from the 70s). Very nostalgic ;)

Paint - the - whole - world - with - a - rainbowwww!! (doo doo der da der der der da da der der etc)
