Stereotypes? The only stereotype I see is the Australian hat, but, whatever. This clip is astounding. I would watch a half hour version of the last 5 seconds of the clip.
This is exactly the sort of thing I would do if I won the lottery and had the money to buy time on Food Network at 3 am. I would kill to be the host of a shitty childrens show with no educational value. KILL.
The most amazing thing about this program (made in the 90's) was the entire episode dedicated to the host's obsession with cult classic "The Prisoner". They all visited Portmeirion. I'll submit a clip.
I'm a Yank, but for some reason I'm getting a strange sense that I've seen these characters before. Could this show have been on early Nickelodeon or is it that the puppets superficially resemble Mr. Rogers' characters.
