About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you like playful, surreal kids’ comedy with a variety-show feel, somewhere between The Muppet Show and Timon and Pumbaa; Not for you if random, noisy, extra-wacky humor quickly wears you out.
Pros: wildly imaginative fun; memorable side characters; nostalgic Saturday vibe | Cons: too weird for some; uneven sense of humor; thin episode logic
