*Claps*
Hi everybody, so today I'm here with my good friend Dodie.
Hello
If you recall last time, she showed me some of her
favourite old kids shows, in England.
(from screen) To you. To me. To you. To me.
(excitedly) This was the pinnacle of my childhood.
And they were quite weird.
So -That's rude.
I decided to now send it back to her,
I'm going to show her some of my favorite shows that I used to watch as a kid.
Lets go. I hope you don't think they're as weird as yours.
Definitely will be.
To me.
To you.
To me. To you.
For some reason, American shows go to England.
But a lot of British shows don't go to America.
So you might know a lot of these.
And hopefully, you don't know some of them.
Especially some that I've got saved.
So, lets get into it.
I know there's so many shows so I couldn't really cover them all but
these are just some of my faves.
Have you ever seen "The Big Comfy Couch"?
Never.
What does it sound like? What takes place on the big comfy couch?
A family? Sound like The Simpsons.
Alright. I mean, that makes sense actually.
*music comes from laptop*
Aw, this seems oddly nostalgic,
but I don't think I've ever seen it.
*Music speeds up*
What's happening?
*Childlike singing comes from laptop*
Aw, its a little puppet!
It is a big couch!
It does look very comfy!
*laughing* It is a big..
*continued childlike singing*
Doodledoo! Doodle, Doddleoddle
Branding, good for branding
Aw, I wanna watch it. *confused* What is that?
Everyone has big red noses, they're all clowns basically.
*music stops* This is probably the most British style American, I wanted to start with that
Ahh,
Cause it's got puppets
Yah easin' me in
You guys have... Yep easing you in
So the next one as well, "Lambchop"
No.
*music starts* "This is the song that doesn't end, yes it goes on and on *laughs* my friend"
*Evan sings* My friend
*music* "This is the song that doesn't end"
People used to sing this at school but I didn't know it was from this
*music* "It goes on and on my friend"
Also that is one dodgy looking lamb
*Laughs*
It's like hold on, kangaroos?
*Laughs*
That's you
*video* "Stop, stop, stop Charlie stop I want you to go away
Aww
Teaching good parent values there, if your mom yells at you it's okay.
*referencing video* Grabs your mouth
*Laughs*
In my video where you showed me stuff I was like "Have you ever seen Zoom?"
and you didn't know what that was
No that's not...
Zoom is one of my all time favorites. It was real life kids and you get to hang out together
and you get to like-like the "Blue Peter" you applied to be on it
Okay
and you got to like make crafts and do
Aww
fun stuff and there's Ubbi Dubbi which is it's own language
and umm here we go *video starts*
you can tell it's from the 90's
Oh my god look at this
*music* "Let's do it... Zooooom"
Aww
*music* "Zoom Zoom Zoom"
Aww it's a little dog, oh look *shrieks*
*Laughs*
Look at the hair cuts
I'm Jared
Sorry?
Kiko
-Kiko-
*Laughs*
*music* "We're all plugged in to one world now"
Internet
*gasps sarcastically* The World Wide Web what's that? Oh my god!
It's trying to encourage people to go out and do stuff as opposed to just watching kids do it on TV
Ubbi Dubbi is a language where you replace all the vowels with Ubbi
Ubbi? Okay.
and I could speak it fluently as a child
*referencing video* Subbim
Yes.
*video starts speaking in this strange language that I am unable to interpret*
NO
*Laughs*
Okay wait wait say something to me
*not this again Evan starts speaking in strange language that I am unable to interpret*
Pizza, I like pizza
*strange language* Pubbilzubble
Pubbilzubble
Yubbles
*Laughs*
Okay so I've lost this ability
Umm... Zaboomafoo recently passed away, very sad
Aww
*video starts*
What's that?
It's Zaboomafoo
Aww he died? No!
Should have told you that after you loved it
*music*
Oh, wait that's not real
It teaches kids about wildlife and why you should like wildlife
Well!
Do you like it?
Yeah I liked it-you liked it
So in America we're brought up with a lot of indoctrinated patriotism
So there were many shows themed about being American and how that's awesome
I'm going to blow your mind with "Liberty's Kids"
thats right show about liberty.
really? Oh my God
these three kids helped the revolution against England
there's Ben Franklin, founding father
it was explaining the history of the American Revolutionary War through the eyes of kids that helped Ben Franklin
right
pretty simple
okay
It was good! It taught me history!
okay Veggie Tales
if you've seen veggie tales its its really hard to explain
Larry the cucumber: now its time for Silly Songs with Larry
The part of the show where Larry comes out and sings a silly song
mad
It's singing and talking vegetables
Is that gangster potato?
Veggie Tales actually was mostly used to teach Christian, biblical stuff
(groaning) oh
So there's like Jonah and the Whale, where Jonah is a celery stick.
oh, okay.
and um that's not bad
Well
(excitedly) Oh, you watched Jackie Chan Adventure
Are you kidding? I know the bloody tune in my heart! Come on, come on, come on
Oh my God, okay
(cantonese)Jiumo gwaigwaai faai di zau
Oh my God!
Look, ready? HEEEEE
One more thing, one MORE thing
Goosebumps. Yeah!
Really, you used to watch Goosebumps?
Oh.
This intro used to give me nightmares.
Like literally I used to have nightmares every night because of just the intro.
Okay. Thats how scary the intro is.
Maybe not. I used to read the books.
Yeah, they're based on the books.
AH! Oh my God
Wait. Pause it
I used to be so scared of the doll with the eyes in the intro of Goosebumps,
that my dad used to tape it for me and I used to tell him to fast forward through that part
and I closed my eyes and at one point he paused it in the middle and he went, "its over now"
there I was my nightmares
This dog
It's scary
Each like episodes was actually really scary
Really? Yeah I think it might it might be Canadian.
Are you ready for this?
Oh I used to know-Yeah I know this!
It's Mrs. Frizzle
Please be a normal field trip! With the Frizz? No way!
*magic school bus theme song*
It taught you like science, mostly. It's like the science educational kids show and I loved it!
They'd shrink and go into someones body and they'd learn about the anatomy of the body and stuff.
That's cool
That-this is yeah that was one of my favorites
I liked the show because we got to learn.
Did you see Mister Rogers?
no
Mister Rogers was a big deal, he recently passed as well which is very sad.
Isn't that the guy in the *sings* this is the ultimate show down
Yes! He's the one that won the Ultimate Show Down
Cause he's the most peaceful, loving man you can that can ever exist
It's called Mister Rogers Neighborhood
*mister rogers neighborhood theme song*
Awwwwwwww
*mister rogers neighborhood theme song continues*
Oh! I wanna give him a hug! Would you be my neighbor?
That's me! He's so precious!
I think I'm in love
my neighbor
I love him! I want to be his neighbor!
He seems so gentle. I was, yes speaking of gentle people,
You've seen Bob Ross. Yeah the painter. The Joy of Painting. yeah yeah yeah
