Lou and Lou: Safety Patrol

This is by far the worst of the Disney mini-shows. From the characters' annoying, officious tone to the cloying nanny-state ethic, I sit there grinding my teeth when my toddler is saddled with it between the main events on Playhouse Disney. I guess it's never too early to teach kids the importance of bowing down to authority and ignoring tradeoffs between safety and fun. And many of the "safety violations" are debatable. Climbing up a slide? Doubling up on a see-saw? If Disney wants a show that's got some practical real-life use, they should do one about what kids ought to do in various types of emergencies. This is just one-size-fits-all hectoring.
