Nanalan'

One day I stayed home from work due to an illness. I was asleep until about 9:30 a.m. and eventually turned the telly on and started surfing the channels. I finally landed on the last 15 minutes of "Nanalan'". I had seen little blips before of Mona's honeydew melon head as I cruised the channels, but this time I thought "Well, I'm getting into illustrating children's stories, so I may as well check this out and see if I can get any ideas from it." Was I glad that I did. Mona was also sick and in bed and "Misser" Wooka had come over with his puppet theatre to give her a little entertainment. I laughed so hard over it that, at least for a few minutes, I actually felt a little better. From then on I tried to catch the prog whenever I could.

The end of the show always comes with a ring of the doorbell. Mona looks at the camera and yells "Mo-o-o-my-y-y-y!!" so sweetly that it just tugs at my heart. When I watch this it reminds me of the summer days that I spent at my grandma's house. When my mom came through the door I pretty much did the same thing as Mona.

Unfortunately "Nanalan'" is always on while I'm at work and doesn't come on again until after my bedtime, so I don't get to view it as often as I would like. :( This is great entertainment for kids and, well, for adults also. The characters and backgrounds scream colour and children can relate to the stories.

Where do I begin with "Nanalan'"? Who knew that a show about a young girl visiting her grandmother could warp into a TikTok phenomenon? Welcome to 'Nanalan'', the unintentionally hilarious puppet show that has millennials and Gen Zers losing their minds. Forget high-budget productions; this is where the magic happens.

First off, the star of the show, Mona. Her adventures at her grandmother's house are nothing short of surreal. One minute she's learning about vegetables, and the next, she's in a psychedelic world of her imagination. And let's not forget Russell - the dog that looks like he's seen things, things no dog should ever see.

The puppetry is simple but brilliant. The characters' expressions oscillate between hilariously exaggerated and mildly concerning, giving you a never-ending stream of meme-worthy material.

Now, the plot - or should I say, the wonderfully whimsical lack thereof. Each episode feels like a drug-fueled stream of consciousness. You never know where the story is going, but you're too mesmerised by the vivid colours and bizarre characters to care.

As an adult, watching "Nanalan'" is an experience. It's like rediscovering a childhood toy and realising it was way weirder than you remembered. And thanks to its resurgence on TikTok, a whole new generation can question their reality just like we did.

In conclusion, 'Nanalan'' is a masterpiece of unintentional comedy. It's educational, in a way that leaves you questioning what on Earth you just watched, but also wanting more.

I am a 35 year old, single, no offspring (yet!) student who is studying Forensic Anthropology. A few days ago a colleague asked what was one of my favorite TV show. I'm sure my he wasn't sure of my intellectual status when I quickly responded with "Nanalan".

This show teaches the wonders of simplicity.

I can't get enough of dog Russell and cat Alice (who makes a few cameos), nor the relationship between Nana and Mr. Wooka. Although I am sure that it flies right over the heads of the shows primary viewers, one can't help but notice the subtle flirting that happens between these two characters.

I am always disappointed when I hear the doorbell, indicating that "Mommy" has come to pick up Mona, and that the show has come to an end.

What talent those that have created this show have!

My girls 4 and 6 love this show. We stumbled across it on a PBS station and they always ask when its on now. It reminds them of their Grandma that takes care of them everyday in the summer. Its funny too and sometimes they can't stopped talking about one scene or another. I would definitely recommend this show to all young kids. It is very clean and shows you to slow down and its not about watching TV all day long. When Nana reads a story it is slow and she talks about each page with Mona. It reminds me to slow down when I read the next book to my girls at bedtime and talk about the book instead of going through it quickly just to get them to sleep.
