Wiggle [Remastered] - Screeching Weasel

Advantages: Good fun, educational, promotes worthy causes
Disadvantages: Catchy songs

...channels that they like to watch. That’s right, when I was little I had to ask if I was allowed to watch my favourite half an hour program. Today, I am told that my kids want CBeebies on, or Nick Junior. I thank my stars that both channels have finished by 8pm! However, although many programmes on these two channels can bore me senseless and irritate me, there are one or two that stand out as being quite catchy and inventive, and the Wiggles is one of these programmes. The Wiggles are a group of four men, Murray, Greg, Anthony and Jeff, who live together in the Wiggle house and generally spend all day singing. Along with their friends, Dorothy The Dinosaur, Captain Feathersword, Wags the Dog and Henry The Octopus, they find ways to amuse themselves in what can only be described as a kid’s TV kind of way!

...Question: What has eight legs, is multi-coloured and sings with an Australian accent? Answer: The Wiggles, as unlikely a group of singing stars as you are likely to meet. Who are they?: They are four Australian "blokes" each distinguished by the colour of their individual shirts (skivvies), Anthony wears blue, Jeff prefers purple, Greg chose the yellow option and Murray favours red, they all wear identical black trousers and shoes. Additionally they each have personality traits which single them out further, Anthony loves his food, Greg does magic tricks, Murray plays his guitar and Jeff sleeps and sleeps! They share a talking house in Wiggle World and invite us to view parts of their lives mainly through song and dance. Their favourite food is fruit salad, they greet each other with a hand sign known as "The... Read review
