PlayHouse Disney and Nick Jr.

I have a two year old daughter. She likes the shows on Playhouse Disney and Nick Jr. While I appreciate what these shows teach our children, as an adult I feel like I'm losing my brain cells. So don't watch them you might say to me. Well my daughter likes to sit next to me and bugs me until I turn the shows on.

Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Handy Manny are probably my favorites. My daughter just loves Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Dora the Explorer and Go Diego Go. Because of the last two shows, she repeats the Spanish they use in their programming. She's learned a lot from these shows.

What makes me feel like I'm losing brain cells is when they where something is or something like that. I'm just staring at the tv like "Duh" it's right there. The shows that really get to me is Wonder Pets and Yo Gabba Gabba. The song the Wonder Pets sing when they leave on a mission makes me want to blow my brains out. Some of their adventures aren't so but on this one episode of Wonder Pets, they had to go rescue a puppy because it needed to go outside and potty. The end of the episode all of them are in different spots of the yard pottying. I think it was a little dumb. And Yo Gabba Gabba, please tell me what those people were smoking when they came up with that show. I mean really. Those are the creepiest things I have ever seen. What about Max and Ruby? Where are their parents? Seriously, I have never seen their parents. They live by themselves while their grandmother comes to check on them ever so often. My 2 year old has looked at me and asked me about their mommy and daddy.

I normally don't care about these, but I've had very little sleep. My two year kept me up all night and is still going. She wants to watch these shows so I gave in. But with little sleep, they seem almost annoying to me.

I'm done.
