This show is about aliens who dance with rainbows, make gassy noises, watch play with characters like Mr. Man and Miss Lady. Pointless.

What Parents Need to Know
About Boohbah
Parents need to know that this series is designed to involve kids all along, but the right viewing age may be hard to determine. If your child just stares at the screen blankly, s/he might be too young -- simply being mesmerized by the colors isn't the point. But older children who can interact with the program and learn from it may have already moved on to more sophisticated programs. The series is designed to help build active learning skills inlcuding movement, math, problem solving, language, and imagination. The best approach may be to watch together a few times and see if your child responds to it.

OMG THE WORST SHOW EVER
This piece of crap is utterly pointless. There are fat aliens dancing around farting for the first 5 minutes, then theres a part where elderly people try to search for a random item for no apperant reason, then the dancing and farting starts all over again. At the end, some retarded kids start doing their Boohbah worshipping dance. ITS STUPID.
