I think it's really sweet actually.

They sing all the words!

Reminds me of the original Play School with Big Ted and Hamble.

Sorry, but I think it is complete drivel, and DD 2.5 totally agrees with me

paranoidmother · 31/07/2009 10:25

I can't stand it either but DD 4 and DS 2 love it as well.

Dds (3.5 and 2.3) both love it, and we sky plus it so dh and I can watch it with them, there is something a bit old fashioned about it. I like the way dd's join in with 'groovy moves' and run around chanting 'who's in the lift'! I think the animation is great, apart from 'Plumpee'(Penelope) which is crapola.

DS (3) loves it too

DD (3) has taken a shine to it too and now you come to mention it, it is reminiscent of Play School.

DD1 (2.6) loves it. I spend most of hte day having to be Chris or Pui to play Show Me Show Me-related games.

I quite like it actually. DD2 (15 months) quite enjoys it too.

Except Penelope. I hate everything to do with Penelope. The music, the voices, the animation, the stories (did you SEE the one where she didn't want to eat the green soup but had to in order to get custard). I am irrationally filled with loathing for Penelope.

ds loves it.
with the exception of penelope, he just switchs off at that.

i was also thinking it reminded me of playschool.

My DS loves Penelope! He kisses her and says "again!" when it is finished...shame I think it's the worst bit of the programme!

giveloveachance · 04/08/2009 13:29

DD loves it especially the sock snakes - she jumps up and down very excitedly when they come on!

She also counts with them as the lift numbers light up.

Makingchanges · 04/08/2009 13:35

My DD loves it - She runs around getting her toys and joining in and loves the groovy moves section - It has taught her to count backwards from 10 - she was really proud of that today

funny... my dd2 (2) also doesn't appreciate Penelope. She asks for more Show Me, Show Me!

We have to get out of the house well before 10am or she seems to sense it is coming on . I do sky+ it too .

nickytwotimes · 04/08/2009 19:43

3 year old ds loves it too.
I must say that it reminds me of Play School too.
I find it mind numbing, but it provides me with half an hour of newspaper houseworking time.

My DS (3) loves it & esp loves Penelope! They already seem to be repeating episodes though, bit quick isn't it??
