The Wiggles
Friday, November 05, 2004
Raising a toddler opened up a whole wide world that was unknown to me. It's called the Disney Channel.
In this new world I found my favorite TV show "The Wiggles".
When The Wiggles appeared on "Today", Katie Couric called them a cross between The Monkees and The Teletubbies. My 15-month old (and I) will stop whatever we are doing when The Wiggles come on.
These guys are funnier than anybody on "Must See TV".
From a website:
"The Wiggles are performers that have rewritten the book on how children can be entertained by song and dance. After 12 years of success in Australia, The Wiggles are increasingly popular all over the world, recently selling out 12 shows at Madison Square Garden in New York.
It is estimated that one in every two toddlers in Australia has sung and danced to The Wiggles through either one of their albums, videos or live concerts. With television shows, numerous APRA and ARIA awards, as well as Gold and Platinum status albums, it is little wonder that The Wiggles are firmly embedded in the hearts and minds of children and adults alike."
Selling out 12 shows at Madison Square Garden!!?? Damn!
