The Wiggles is another one of those Australian shows that American children love so much. Comprised of a Red, Blue, Yellow and Purple Wiggle, played by 4 grown men, a large green dinosaur named Dorothy, a dog that walks on 2 feet, Wags, and the amazing Captain Feathersword, this is one of those shows that you must see to believe.
Completely entertaining, the Wiggles will sing and dance their way into your heart and your child's, and may even include the all important lesson in each show.

Love the Wiggles! (Review 1 of 28)
Reviewed by A.G.'s Mom on 6/3/2008 Rating: (4094)
When the Wiggles first came out, I was not a mother and kind of was freaked out about the idea of four grown men putting on a children's show. I had even made the comment to my mother in law that I would never let my children watch that show. However, my daughter LOVES it! She is only 18 M but when she sees the show and hears the music, she starts to dance just like them and even tries to sing along! The men put out no weird vibes, they just enjoy what they do! We finally get a chance to see a live show because they finally decided to come south and do some shows. We are so excited!! Give them a shot. It's my only 30 minute break in the morning until my daughter takes her nap!!

Overly repetitious songs and I feel like the same episode is on everyday at 7:00. I try to put the disney channel on in the morning for my son and I feel like it is the same pirate episode everyday! Some songs are cute.

The Wiggles are Great (Review 6 of 28)
Reviewed by Lynette on 5/8/2007 Rating: (3587)
I just wanted to address some things in some of the reviews. My daughter does not get to watch the show often but she owns many of the videos and in the videos they showcase children with down syndrom, in wheelchairs, and of all ethnic groups. From what little I have seen of the show it seems they have phased out the children and have used the red coat dancers more. I think this show is great. Like many parents I was very hesitant to let my daughter watch a show about four grown men dancing and a pirate who goes around tickling people, however, the show has taught my daughter a lot of things. She knows all the songs. She knows what an Emu is and not to make myself sound dumb but I had no idea until I stopped to watch an episode with her. Also, the Wiggles put on an EXCELLENT show. My daughter had front row seats and she had the time of her life. I think every parent has an idea of what entertainment for our children should be but I have learned to let my daughter pick the shows she likes and it turns out she has great taste.
Great Show (Review 7 of 28)

Wow, the Wiggles fit right in our life style. Myself, being a teacher of music on live stage, and in church choirs, the Wiggles inspire music for all ages. When my children wake up they know the Wiggles will usaully be on. Both my children are familiar with being on stage, my youngest nearing three years old, her birthday being, February 9, turns three, for the year 2007, has already had her first experience on stage for our production, "Candy Cane Lane" and my four year old is practically a pro. They both love music, and singing, and the Wiggles is a wonderful influence on installing the value of music in their hearts.

Including kids in wheelchairs (Review 10 of 28)
Reviewed by Mommy on 10/10/2006 Rating: (1990)
We all love the Wiggles here. I have to disagree with another poster about including children in wheelchairs. Try watching Wiggly Wiggly World and you will see a boy in a wheelchair in 2 or 3 songs. They include all types of children in their videos: down syndrome, terminally ill, handicapped, etc. The Wiggles even have special Meet & Greet for children who are terminally ill of have special needs before their concerts. If you're interested, try contacting their office through their website (www.thewiggles.com.au)

I like the wiggles and my 8 mth old daughter does too. I think society is to hung up on making up stories and thinking that if a man acts like a kid or isn't mean and manly he's...well...you know what I mean. I agree with a previous post and I think that a father should be able to dance and sing with his child. More men these days are wearing the pinks and purple clothes and it doesn't mean a thing. I wish there were more father's out there who were focused on there kids like these guys do. I do have to agree with another post though...Mr. Daniel Cook is rather rude. I have heard him several times cutting off his teacher and acting repulsive. I think there should not be a such thing as tune-out on this Disney Channel.

Fun and Learning with Wiggles (Review 16 of 28)
Reviewed by mom of 2-yr old on 6/7/2006 Rating: (810)
The Wiggles respect kids, in the old shows they had a kid on a wheelchair. They get down to the kids level of understanding and teaching. If a grown man can't jump, dance and have lots of fun with their kids, what kind of children is he raising? I love this show and it's music and will tape the show now that it's moved to an early time slot.

missing the point (Review 19 of 28)
Reviewed by annoyed on 5/21/2006 Rating: (726)
I think most of the posters here are missing the point by saying things like, "Tune out if you don't want to watch this kid." The point of the entire Disney network is to EDUCATE children. We shouldn't have to tune out of ANY Disney shows. We especially shouldn't have to tune out due to a show's content and irresponsibility to educate children. Tuning out because we simply do not like a show is one thing. Tuning out because the show is teaching our children things that they should not learn is quite another. Although Daniel may be trying new things and educating children in that respect, those things go out the window because of his behavior. He simply is an example of the downward spiral of horrible parenting. He has no manners. He doesn't follow direction. He talks over his "teachers". For those of you who do not agree, think about it for a minute. If you were the "teacher" and the child whom you were teaching did not listen or talked over you, wouldn't you be at least a little bit annoyed at this child or his parents? Disney should know better.

This is a fantastic show!!! I would love to personally thank Murray, Greg, Anthony, and Jeff having such an awesome show! My daughter loves to dance along with the Wiggles and she keeps dancing long after the show has gone off.
