Top Ten "What's!?" of Kids Television

If you are a parent, chances are you've seen at least one children's cartoon. After a recent conversation with mother's and father's here are the top ten things that make you go "huh" while watching the shows.

10. Sponge Bob Square Pants

How does Sponge Bob build fires and blow up balloons while underwater? Of course you could argue that there is "some" air underwater but fire? That isn't possible. And why is it when Sponge Bob cries it leaves puddles behind?

9. Franklin

Ever notice how Franklin is the only one with a name in the show? There's multiple characters all with no names, Moose, Fox, Bear, etc. Since the show is about Franklin it makes sense that he have a name, but why can't the rest of them have names as well.

8. My Friend's Tigger and Pooh

Are they really that clueless? Melting snowmen, mirrors they think are duplicates of themselves, asking trees to give them objects back? But of course it's a teaching show and it can't teach our children anything if they get the answer right away.

7. Little Bear

Where's his clothes! Why do most everyone else wear clothes, yet he does not? Put some clothes on the bear!

6. Curious George

Who lets a monkey run around the city without any sort of supervision? Don't you think he would have been picked up by animal control by now? And why is he allowed to help out in the restaurant and no one thinks twice about it?

5. Clifford

Who cleans up after Clifford? I wouldn't want that job. Imagine the amount that'd need to be cleaned up. Where does he do his business as well? I imagine it'd leave a small hill in the back yard and create a river.

4. Handy Manny

What's up with the candy store guy? Why is he so stupid? I guess the point is it's not bad to ask for help. And when will Manny and Kelly finally start dating?

3. Little Einsteins

Where are their parents? Seriously four small children have a rocket that goes around the world. Do their parents not notice that they are gone? Aren't they worried?

2. Wonder Pets

Why is it that the Wonder Pets can talk to each other and the Adult animals but not to the babies? And doesn't the teacher ever clean the cages and notice the escape exits?

1. Dora the Explorer

Once again where are her parents and why are they letting her go on adventures around the world by herself? Doesn't this reek as bad parenting. I'd want to know where my child is at all times. And who gave her a monkey?!

Of course as parents we have to realize that these things are made for kids and thus won't make sense to us, but these questions are always fun to ponder and make the show a bit more interesting to watch when our children refuse to let us watch anything else.
