Ok, extremely is overstating it. Yeah. But I do think it is well written. It is still aimed at a young audience, so there is some necessary tropes in play there, but for the most part they do a really good job of keeping it funny and interesting for people who aren't 7.
And it certainly is not mind-numbingly bad like most kid shows. I have 6 year old younger siblings, so believe me, I've had my fair share of that.
Just to add: I consider most kids shows to be in the category of "holy sh*t how can you watch that crap without getting a brain tumor!?"
Because when the only noise in the house is coming from television it's a small slice of heaven.
The only noise in my house are my cat snoring, The Who blasting out of my PC speakers and my fingers rattling on my keyboard. Kids shows ain't a slice of heaven for me.
I don't know, I guess because I grew up on the original it's hard for me to get passed the huge changes they made to the show. I know I should give it a chance, but it just bugs me.

All the muppets sound funny now too.

I actually went underwear shopping (and measuring - didn't really know my size) and ended up spending something like $110 for two bras. Yeah... wasn't my money, and everything in my size was in that price range.
Bras are totally different. I'm perfectly willing to spend $50 or $60 on a good bra, because bras can actually impact back aches and such. Underwear are pretty much just for looks, and to prevent chafing while wearing jeans.

My niece loves Caillou. She's also going through the "Mine!" phase and is entering her terrible twos. The show makes me want to kill myself. But there are those times when it's a small price to pay to make her stop screaming.
(Note that my sister and her husband are living with my parents right now, and I'm home on break).

That's actually kind of awesome, in a disturbing way.
So, we have mice at home. I'm gone two weeks and this happens. Apparently they come for a few weeks every winter and then leave again; is there any damage they are likely to cause apart from dying and causing carcass smell?

My Daughter's baby dinosaur is named Rexy.
Beauty and the Beast is the one I could see less of. It's worse since she got Belle's dress and Mrs. Potts' tea set for Christmas...

Mouse **** is hardly sanitary...
A little peanut butter on a couple of snap-traps and you're all set.

Caillou is one of the worst ones on the air at the moment. I can't stand it.
Also, I found the terrible twos to be a misnomer. I thought the threes were way worse.
