Wiggle, Wiggle, Wiggle

The blue wiggle isn't even singing in the recent eps! There's some kinda Milli Vanilli thing going on. The sing barbers are terrible to listen to and the constant bag pipes and Irish dancing are too much.... and I'm Irish! Hang it up Anthony, I'm tired of seeing your feet.

For a mother watching this show, it is no where near as good as Ready Steady Wiggle, which is far more entertaining. Wiggle Wiggle Wiggle is very messy. My 18mo also prefers Ready Steady Wiggle, there is far more to keep him interested than on Wiggle Wiggle Wiggle. As soon as Carnival of the Animals comes on, he wants me to change the show.

I have sat through this truly horrendous series on ABC Kids with my daughter.

Let's be blunt. The pacing and editing is sloppy, the writing is poor, the song choices lamentable, the choreography tired. In fact, it's the exact opposite of the Wiggles pre Emma, Lachy and Simon.

All three 'newer' Wiggles have now been around just as long as Sam was, but they clearly have no on screen chemistry. Greg, Sam, Murray and Geoff make them all look like hacks.

I concur with the other reviewer on two points: 1)The constant Irish dancing, bag pipes and ballet will drive you absolutely insane, as will the incredibly weak singing, which lacks even a smidgen of harmony, or energy. Listen to them murder Wiggles classics like 'Big Red Car', or 'Fruit Salad' with Emma's pip squeak voice and Simon's dominant baritone. You'll cringe.

2) Creative control needs to be wrestled from Anthony and the rest of the Fields. Time for a new perspective.

Do as I did, go to eBay/Gumtree and buy a DVD from their back catalogue. You won't regret the purchase, the 'Old' Wiggles really kick arse, which makes this series even more unfortunate.

My little one absolutely loves this show! She quite enjoys the dancing and tries to minic the wiggles, it is the only show that she will watch and interact with! Wish there were more episodes, but we are trying to find the old episodes.

Shows are produced for the comprehension of the viewer. This show is made to appeal to toddlers. The lack of a lengthy story line or sketch is consistent with the attention span of toddlers. My then toddler son watched the old version and enjoyed it very much. My toddler granddaughter watches the current version and enjoys it very much. I know this because they are the intended audience and they stay tuned and follow along with the songs. Based on their write-up, perhaps shows which appeal to a child, are better suited for the previous reviewers.
