Lazy Town
Posted on 23. Apr, 2005 by Kevin Buckstiegel in Babbling
A few mornings ago, I woke up to the television still set on Nick-At-Nite from the night before, but now it was Nick Jr. I was quickly in horror when waking up to a show that I never knew existed. After watching it for a few minutes my horror turned into bizarre interest. After a few commercial breaks, I soon realized what I was watching was a show for young kids called Lazy Town. Ever since then, I couldn’t get it out of my head and make a point to watch further episodes. The characters are split up between human and oversized dolls basically. The humans have plastic hair and the guys have amazingly carved bodies. After doing some research online, I see that the male leads are past athletic types, hence their perfect bodies. The show is both disturbing, yet interesting at the same time. I don’t know how else to describe it. However, I see that the show is from Iceland… and well, so is Bjork… so now it kind of all makes sense! Anyway, it’s just something you have to check out yourself to see. Check your local listings!
Kev!

i am always the last to know when good things happen and this one is no exception.
i too stumbled across lazy town by mistake it was just starting and the music was making my two yearold dance so i left it on and promised myself after the music id turn the channel over, but my daughter had other ideas and was glued from the start.
after about a minute my curiosity kicked in and i watched it with her.
boy am i glad i did!!!! the musics catchy and i find myself singing it around the house, in the bath, walking the dog, whilst reading,im hooked!! now i too make a point of watching it, the bright colours make a change from the winter outside all the songs are good fun and i even try my hand at the dances! im not sure about getting kids fit but ive lost half a stone since i started watching lazy town THANKS MAGNUS!!
speaking of magnus WELL even he is cute he has a fab body and how he manages to do the splits in mid air ill never know – surley that is against the laws of gravity?!
the only thing i find desterbing about the whole thing is robbie rotton’s scary hair and his even scarier dress sense.
its educational, motivational, funny, fun, cheerful need i go on, personally i think it is the best childrens show of the year a five star thumbs up goes to all the cast and crew who made this but especially to magnus i-cant-say-his-name-let-alone-spell-it who created it, directed it and acted in it.
