It could be worse. You ...Think of it this way Lori. It could be worse. You could be living in Japan where the children's shows either give the kids epileptic ceasures or are graphically violent or really sexual explicit. <BR/><BR/>When I was semi-younger I once passed out playing a Japanese video-game. The graphics were so intense, and I was trying to break a friend's loosing streak. Needless to say I never played that game again.<BR/><BR/>One thing that comes to mind. I had a friend who hated all action and suspense TV or movies with kids in them. The reasons were that the kid always seemed to get in the way. You can't do anything to the kid. She was really annoyed by these kids. It was funny.Ehav Everhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04201312079270363001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34223438.post-68830140559812224462007-09-06T09:32:00.000-05:002007-09-06T09:32:00.000-05:00Ehav E.,I never saw "The Critic."

But the show you described with Barney and the kids running out the door screaming, "We're free!" sounds pretty funny.<BR/><BR/>Yeah, Barney and those kids in his crew were pretty scary. I was glad when my son lost his fascination with the program and moved on to some of the other bad tv shows marketed to kids (smile).Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09792085144824685369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34223438.post-33969771114586000772007-09-06T09:25:00.000-05:002007-09-06T09:25:00.000-05:00Hey Malcolm,I agree with you on Scrappy Doo.

There was a show called Harvey Birdman where at the end Scrappy showed up at the last minute saying his <I>Puppy Power</I> line and then he was snatched up and taken away by an eagle. Everyone, Scooby Doo included, then laughed about it.Ehav Everhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04201312079270363001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34223438.post-49737594089535555932007-09-06T09:22:00.000-05:002007-09-06T09:22:00.000-05:00In terms of the Barney Kids. There was a show call...In terms of the Barney Kids. There was a show called The Critic and they did a joke about that. A guy fell from the ceiling and landed on Barney. All of the kids stood there for a second looking in shock. They then ran out the door yelling, <I>We're free! We're free! Now we don't have to sing those stupid songs anymore!</I><BR/><BR/>I always felt that the Barney Kids were way too happy, it was scary. I found them annoying, especially since if Barney wee a real dinosaur they would have been lunch.Ehav Everhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04201312079270363001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34223438.post-1147660894555437332007-09-01T16:39:00.000-05:002007-09-01T16:39:00.000-05:00Hey Emanuel,Thanks for the list.

But in thinking about it . . . actually it was the real-life "character" Gary Coleman who got on my nerves(smile). I must have stopped watching by the time "The Gooch" showed up on the scene. Can't say that I remember him.<BR/><BR/>Wow, a one-year old?! Poor fella . . . You've got years of bad television ahead of you (smile).Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09792085144824685369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34223438.post-49136939383573949432007-09-01T00:58:00.000-05:002007-09-01T00:58:00.000-05:00I'm posting this before I read the comments in cas...I'm posting this before I read the comments in case there are duplicates. I've got an 11-year old and a one-year old so I drown in Disney, Nick, Noggin, and PBS daily. I've got a few. BTW, ditto<BR/>on the Olsen twins looking like muppets and the chunky butts on Raven's show. <BR/><BR/>Daniel Cook from educational TV's show "This is Daniel Cook." The annoying little kid never shuts up <BR/>long enough for the adults to teach his little know-it-all self something. http://www.thisisdanielcook.com/grown-ups/episode_guide.php<BR/><BR/>The Gooch-If I remember correctly, he used to always beat up Arnold on Different Strokes. Why didn't Willis come and beat the crap out of the little bully?<BR/><BR/>Webster-It's bad enough Emmanuel Lewis has my first name when they're aren't many famous Emanuels in the world. "Webster" was just a horrible show. Plus he called his adoptive mother Ma'am like some kind of servant. <BR/><BR/>Hillary Duff-If she would stick to acting she's be okay but her singing reminds me of when my car brakes go metal on metal. (Many other kid stars fit this category.)E.R.

Well, I'm glad I passed.<BR/><BR/>Malcolm,<BR/>Ah, okay, Scrappy-Do is a cartoon and a dog . . . Well, it is a thought. 13 Cartoon TV Animals I Love To Hate . . . hmm, that just might work (smile).<BR/><BR/>Sharon,<BR/>Good point!

I don't dislike the kids on the Ray Romano Show, I just don't know why they were casted for the show. I thought the show was about an Italian family. Apparently, they must have adopted some blond-haired kids from Sweden, because I don't know how they wound up in that family. Why didn't they pick kids who looked like Romano and his t.v. wife, Patricia Heaton.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34223438.post-4399345092093439902007-08-30T20:16:00.000-05:002007-08-30T20:16:00.000-05:00Ah, come on... you can't show any love for the Thr...Ah, come on... you can't show any love for the Three Stooges?! :)<BR/><BR/>Steve Urkel was funny at first, but the show definitely overused him. Remember the last few years when it was obvious that Jaleel White's voice had changed and he was still trying to talk in that geeky whine?<BR/><BR/>Good call about those overgrown kids on Barney. I remember seeing the TV ads for one of his records and wondering, "why are these big ass kids dancing with that purple dinosaur?"<BR/><BR/>As for my annoying kid, I am going to step a little out of the box and vote for Scrappy Doo. IMO, one of the most annoying characters (live or animated) in TV history. I have yet to find anyone who actually liked him.Malcolmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02065814455731328574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34223438.post-26549062444647161352007-08-30T11:19:00.000-05:002007-08-30T11:19:00.000-05:00Great list, Lori!

From very recent TV, I could not stand any of the kids on that poor excuse for a game show: Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader. I'm sure the producers made them exaggerate, but each kid was in dire need of a swift kick (figurative, of course!), or a Black mother "look" for their obnoxious behavior, in my opinion. Happy TT!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09133136131391691450noreply@blogger.com
