What on earth was I thinking allowing my kids to watch this? They Might Be Giants did the theme song... guys... how could you...

This has got to be ONE of the most horrific children's shows ever made. Outside of the odd funny little joke it is just a misery of "things that go round and round in my head at bedtime".

Like the squirrel, though.

Higgleytown Heroes is pretty scary, but I think the scariest of all is Boobah.

Agreed. Boobah is one of the few shows ever aired that can make the Teletubbies look lucid. I didn't mind the tubbies, mind you, as far as allowing my young to watch... and I love the live-action clips of li'l British preschoolers. But all in all they were pretty nutty... and Boobah is worse.

I've only seen Higglytown Heroes once and I found the pizza delivery guy extremely annoying! But I have seen far worse pre-school shows out there. Two words: Blue's Room. It's this atrocious spin-off of Blue's Clues, only Blue's a puppet like everything else there. It's horrible!! !

Higglytown Heroes are just a bunch of ret*d nesting dolls who needs to DIE!
