Kid shows you hate to admit you watch..

My son watches Blues Clues, and I hate to admit that I will continue watching long after he's crawled away. Then I got hooked on the Backyardigans once too. All the singing, I just couldn't stop watching. So embarrassing!

My son was totally hooked on Blues Clues for a long time and I enjoyed watching it with him at first. After a few years, I couldn't take it anymore. He was hooked on that show longer than any of the others. I do still sing the Blues Clues Birthday Song occasionally. I don't know the dance that goes with it anymore.

I'm totally sick of Steve already, but I just have a soft spot in my heart for Joe. He's such a better singer too. I'm sure I'll get sick of the entire show soon enough, I think we have years of it ahead of us!

I cannot believe that my trashy step-sister-in-law actually told her age 3 through 9 kids that Steve DIDN'T really go to college, he died of a drug overdose. She couldn't even just leave it at "he died", since she felt the need to tell them the truth, she had to add the part about the drug overdose.

I used to watch Lizzie McGuire in college. I felt bad, because I had a little crush on the guy who played Gordo - until I found out that he's a year younger than me. Then I didn't feel so bad.

You know that it's urban legend that Steve Burns ("Steve") died of a drug overdose, right? He's alive and well. He's actually a rock singer and does voice over work. I think personally he got sick of doing the show and wanted more out of his career. Another rumor I've heard is that he was going bald and didn't want kids to see it. He appeared on Rosie (back when she had her own show) to prove he was still alive.

I'm sorry your step-sister told her kids that Steve died. That's mean. And if you really want to one-up her--you should tell the woman he's still alive! I think you can look him up on wikipedia if you want to prove it to her.

I didn't ever bother to look it up. I figured if someone was going to tell her kids something like that, she'd verified it was true. Although, knowing her, it doesn't suprise me.

My son was done with it by the time Joe came along, so we only had Steve. My son even insisted on wearing Steve shirts. It bordered on an illness, I swear!

That's So Raven (Disney Channel)... cute show but it's time for Raven to move on, and I don't think Walt and them will be bringing back awkward, sidekick Eddie after that "charge" he picked up in H-Town a few month back!!!

I'm too young to have kids, but I babysit a one year old every week, and her favorite show is the Backyardigans. I get those songs stuck in my head days later. And the dancing they do is pretty intricate; they were doing the cha-cha-cha on one episode! Ok, now I'm officially embarrassed

Yup I have been known to watch the Backyardigans. the songs are so catchy

christiangirl · #12 06-03-2007, 02:57 AM

^^^Them and Wonder Pets. I don't particular like either, but I watch with my nephew and we sing those songs ALL DAY LONG.

Ooh, and the Veggie Tales songs, too. I don't like watching it, but I HEART the songs. I even have a soundtrack that I still listen to--"I Love My Lips" and "The Song of the Cebu" are GOLD.

I watch Nick at Nite a lot before bed so sometimes when I have a late class and wake up and turn on the TV, Wonder Pets is on. I got the Oh, Sheep-eee-ooo! song stuck in my head to the point I downloaded it on iTunes.

I will admit to watching Spongebob. I'll even admit to owning Seasons 1-3 on DVD.
