Since debuting this August, YO GABBA GABBA! Nickelodeon Jr.’s uber-creative kids program, has been bubbling up inside the family scene (under age 4) as well as the alternative music world. The whimsical half-hour show centers around five characters (Brobee, Foofa, Muno, Plex, and Toodee), host DJ Lance Rock, 80’s influenced sound effects and lots and lots of dancing.

Yo Gabba Gabba! has featured cameos by Tony Hawk, our favorite hobbit Elijah Wood and several other celebrities. The show’s creator, Christian Jacobs (aka The MC Bat Commander of The Aquabats), has written in musical spots for Shiny Toy Guns (aka The Shinys), The Shins and of course The Aquabats.

Coming up on November 26, Sugarland will be featured on the show’s “Dancey Dance” segment and on November 27, Cornelius will perform with Biz Markie in a “Biz’s Beat of the Day” segment.

The show has gotten so popular among those outside of the Nick Jr demo that KID ROBOT has gone and created a line of toys and apparrel for the show and it’s even been called the best kids show for adults by members of the Hey! Nielsen community.
