Post by: horseboy on March 19, 2007, 10:31:05 am: Wow. I just did a search on the Wiggle to prove a point to my wife (She thought they were British for some reason :dunno ). While searching, I saw this...

According to Business Review Weekly magazine, The Wiggles were Australia's highest grossing entertainers for the year 2005, earning more than AC/DC and Nicole Kidman combined

That is scary. The Wiggles must be stopped.

Post by: SithMaster on March 19, 2007, 10:35:30 am: must be stopped lol. they are the terrance and philipp of austraila.

I dont know the wiggles remind of me of the webbles "wobble and dont fall down." seasme street is better imo where else can you find the count, the pinball skit, and and pissed off puppets.

Post by: Bones on March 19, 2007, 09:15:54 pm: I have two kids. A six year old and a three year old. I also have every AC/DC record or CD ever made.

I can say without any doubt that the Wiggles have cost me $$$ than a 20 year fascination with AC/DC.

Post by: shmokes on March 19, 2007, 11:17:55 pm: Wow . . . I thought they were British too. There's ethnocentrism for you, I suppose. Now that I think about it, the accent is obviously Australian. That's embarrassing. At any rate, it should be considered a compliment that I automatically associated something so horrifyingly terrible with Britain rather than the great state of Australia. Maddy also seems to like them more than any other kid/cartoon stuff (except 12 Oz. Mouse, which is awesome, but probably only appropriate for infants who don't know what's really going on and being said).

By the way, 12 Oz. Mouse is awesome -- possibly the most brilliant thing to be on TV since Looney Tunes. Most people hate it. But it's because they're half-retarded. It's fantastic. And something about it (possibly that it looks like it was animated by kindergarten kids) absolutely absorbs infants*
