Hmph. If you ask me, A Beachcombers' Christmas was not a good trade for Rick Mercer. A Danger Bay Christmas, maybe.
I have a new television addiction, and sadly enough, it's a show intended for three-to-five year olds (no comments from the peanut gallery). But once upon a time I was flipping channels when I passed by TVO and heard a voice I'd know anywhere. Next thing I knew, I was thoroughly hooked on Peep and the Big Wide World. It's really quite cool for a show meant for very small persons- the theme song is sung by Taj Mahal (blues for babies!), the plotlines are all based on easy science concepts and are probably good for inspiring nature walks, and the narrator whose voice first caught my attention is Joan Cusack. Joan Cusack! Decidedly cool. My favorite character of the main three- Peep, Chirp and Quack- is Quack, without question. He's bossy, arrogant, egotistical and high-strung, but rather sweet underneath all that. He's basically Rodney McKay disguised as a fat blue duck with a sailor hat. It's even cuter than you're picturing, I promise.
And I forget what the other thing I wanted to mention was. Hm. Oh well, why would I want to say anything of substance or meaning anyway? That's far too much work for this hour.
