the kids are dancing
A couple of weeks ago Gusset brought this new Nickelodeon show to my attention. It seems they got their selves a really funny hit.

Yo Gabba Gabba! is a show focused on music and dancing, aiming at elementary school kids.
It's beyond awesome, as some minutes on youtube will undoubtedly make you realize. That link will also provide video results for actual kids dancing to the show as they watch it on tv, which are no less fun :)

The show features really proper (oldschool) hip hop/party beats, fun puppets, star guests (one star guests is dancing with the puppets in every episode). It has everything that used to make kid's television exciting.
Here's to give you an idea:





The best part, well for a non-american anyway, is that I've recently come across this tv streaming solution that lets you stream nickelodeon (us) among other channels (comedy central (us) [hello Colbert Report!], fox news [yay! ;)], cbs, ...).

TVU Networks is technically supposed to even allow you to just stream the stations in your browser but their site has been experiencing technically issues lately. There is a stand-alone player however that works just fine (without any firewall hassle for instance). The download site is defunct right now too (whatever is up with their site?) but i guess google can help a fella out there.

Yo Gabba Gabba is on weekdays at 10:30am pacific, 7:30pm uk, 8:30pm cet (i.e. I started writing this article right after having watched today's episode, which featured an uptempo two-tone ska song on cleaning up your room :)

Now go and dance!
