Bubble Guppies and Agent Oso: Logic does not exist!

With a two year old in my life I am able to watch some very entertaining shows such as the ones listed in the title. There is one thing that bothers my about these particular shows; the lack of logic. Lets start with an episode of Bubble Guppies I saw recently. One of the guppies rescued a cat from a tree but could not come back down. First cats don't live under water and neither do trees but what really got me was why didn't he just swim down from the tree? I realize we are suppose to suspend disbelief but come on don't insult my intelligence! Oh and Oso you're and talking bear! No one has a problem with a talking stuffed animal. Oh and he is always messing up what kind of special agent is that. However, I do appreciate the nod to 007 with the names of his missions. I guess it's just like when I watch Full House now and I'm like, really Stephanie get over yourself or who has these little sit downs with there kids when they do some of the stuff those kids did. If that was me I would have been punished and probably would have received a nice whooping! My Dad used to ask me if I would like my punishments better if he had a tape player to play the music in the background like Danny Tanner did. I didn't get it back then but now I can appreciate the humor. I mean who sits down with a two year old, literally who can get them to sit down long enough for me to have a discussion about the fact that hiding things is not good and you shouldn't do it! I can't even get him to tell me what he wants to eat much less have a heart to heart! Ok, I'm done with my rant !

  1. All I have to say is welcome to the club dude. These questions have been buggin me for almost six years... There have actually been full indepth conversations in our garage or at Emilys dinner table about this very topic and we are all annoyed & perplexed by Bubble Guppies. Not to mention Ruby being such a B to her brother Max, the way Dora just stares & please whatever you do don't get Joel started on that damn Olivia! However in my superior knowledge (haha sorry couldn't resist) of this whole stay at home mom business I can honestly tell you that if you think too hard about this you will in fact go bat shit crazy. And I love you and don't wanna get that call one day..."hey Sam its Mike...ah yea, I just came home and found Ashley hiding in the pantry eating fruit snacks out of a wine glass chanting something about a Twilight version of Bubble Guppies...a lil help please" Deep breaths mom, it just gets weirder...love ya turd!
