PBS Kids Shows 25 January, 2009 at 10:32 am
So, DK generally gets to watch 4 shows at home.
- PBS Kids Word World
- PBS Kids Super Why!
- Disney My Friends Tigger & Pooh
- Disney Handy Manny
Tigger & Pooh we found one (maybe two?) disc last year. Then we found them on iTunes so we just bought the rest of the eps there. We haven’t quite decided what to do about the few we have on DVD. We haven’t bought them on iTunes yet, but I’m tempted to just so they’re all in the same format :o
At Thanksgiving he decided he liked Handy Manny, so when we got home we picked that up for him too. Because a little bi of variety is nice.
Word World we’d found earlier and have 4 discs of shows. Maybe about half hte first season at this point I think. They put out a disc every 3-6 months with three more eps on it. Slow. And a little behind the show :/
Super Why! They had on iTunes when Kiir was looking around and she thought it looked good for him. He enjoys it, dances and interacts, yeah. Ten eps at the time. They haven’t put any more eps in since then. It’s been over a year :/ They seem to have put out one disc last year. So there are now 2 eps on disc.
I’m thinking about checking that huge antenna that’s been in our attic since we moved in, see if it does anything. If I can pick up PBSKids I may start recording off the air. But I adamantly REFUSE to pay for cable so I can record PBS shows!!!
(I did send an email on the contact form for SW! asking about the iTunes content … I may put one in for WW too ; since we got the appleTV it’s just so much easier to have things in iTunes instead of always changing discs)
[...] I sent that email about Super Why! to PBS Kids on the 24th. On the 28th, I saw that Super Why! Volume 2 was on iTunes [...]
