It’s 10:30AM and I’m sitting here channel surfing after 2-straight episodes of The Backyardigans with Ella curled up next to me on the couch. I find myself stopping at a little show called “The Price is Right” – a classic show that I literally grew up watching! As soon as I saw that it was on (we have that sweet “what’s on” feature with our Time Warner Digital Cable) I wondered aloud, “I wonder if Drew Carey is the host yet?”

After a short commercial Drew Carey came back on as the new-host of “The Price is Right” and nearly instantaneously disappointed me.

Sure Barkers shoes are nearly impossible to fill, but the uncomfortableness of Carey’s hosting is nearly too much to even watch.

Ugh. Another television letdown.

Is it okay to watch Backyardigans by myself while Ella naps?
