Please...make it stop.

Despite their nearly non-existent educational value, my very bright 2-year old, who normally could care less about what's on television, absolutely adores the Wiggles. Specifically, he loves the song Hot Potato. Sure, he'll sit through a fair amount of the other songs on the Yummy Yummy DVD, but for him it's all about Hot Potato. I wish I knew why.
My son's Wiggles infatuation is entering its third month. If I thought it was doing any harm, I'd put a stop to it, but he's not turning into a couch potato, he rarely watches more than 15 minutes at a time, and he honestly loves these goofy songs. My wife and I, on the other hand, fall asleep with these songs in our heads. They pop into our heads the second we wake up. We hum them in the hallways and in the car. I'm confident he'll outgrow this fascination, but I fear four our sanity in the meantime.
Here are some observations from a Wiggle-weary parent who has seen this DVD more than any sane person should.
1. Would it kill these guys to throw in some songs about the alphabet or counting? If you're going to have such a magnetic pull on toddlers' attention, don't you owe it to them to try and educate them a little?
2. What exactly does Anthony bring to the group? He almost never plays an instrument, and from what I can tell Greg is the only real singer. He doesn't even have a cool disorder like Jeff's narcolepsy to fall back on.
3. Why on Earth do I care about Anthony's talents in the first place? That's a sign that it's too late for me, isn't it?
4. Do you think this is what Murray had in mind when he plugged in his first electric guitar? I bet he wanted to be Angus Young, and now look at him.
5. If Henry was any kind of real octopus, he'd have dragged the Wiggles down to a watery grave by now.
6. If Dorothy were any kind of real dinosaur, she'd have finished off the Wiggles for making her do all the yard work, and then gone after that purple freak Henry.
7. If Captain Feathersword were any kind of real pirate, he'd have made the Wiggles walk the plank...after they cooked him up a batch of crunchy munchy honeycakes. From what I've seen, he's not even pirate enough to qualify for one of those paper hats they give away at Long John Silvers.
8. Wags the Dog...OK, I have no problem with Wags, largely because he doesn't sing.
9. Those Wiggle Puppets are just not right. Seriously, you can't tell me those aren't the result of ingesting massive amounts of illegal substances. Psychedelic backgrounds, techno beats, and creepy-eyed puppets just don't mix.
10. Greg and Anthony could probably, after lots of therapy, be gradually integrated back into society. I'm afraid there's no hope for Jeff and Murray though.
I'm venting, I know. But I can't be the only parent who wishes they had never heard of the Wiggles, can I? |
