Boobah... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Ewan's My Man · 07-20-2004, 11:39 AM

Ok, I wasn't exactly sure where to post this, I was pretty sure that SitcomsOnline didn't have a board for psychotic children's shows. But my friend Erin and I watched this show on occasion while flipping through the channels and the beach and her and I are seriously concerned.

What the hell are the youth of the world WATCHING?!

Oh no, if Teletubbies weren't bad enough, these things are Teletubbies on crack, speed, ecstasy, the works. They run into each other and fall on the ground, they do some sacrificial dance, that they TRY to pass off as amusement for young children, but Erin and I know the truth. And what the hell is up with the title? Boobah, ahem, hello?! These things are FRIGHTENING!

RUN FOR YOU'RE LIFE!

Oh man!!!
Boohbah's have been massively popular in the UK for a couple of years. I guess they are now trying to invade America. I pity all of you...
Those things scare me! I went into a shop once and there was a whole bunch of big Boohbah toys lined up along one of the top shelves. I just looked up and could see all these little fat psycedellic faces peering down at me. I got the hell out of there as fast as I possibly could!

How frightening...

I think we need a support group! I'll bring cookies!

The other day, I was flipping through the channels when I got to this show. It was utterly deranged and disturbing. I was way too scared to laugh

It's one of the most bizarre things I've ever seen on TV, and I don't know how little kids could stand it.

Yeah, you bring the cookies and I'll bring ice-cream and a big blanket for us to hide under incase those nasty little Boohbahs come back.
I can't even begin to articulate how evil those things are!
My friend Sarah knows how much they freak me out, so you know what she gave me as an Easter present? She gave me a big Boohbah easter egg with little gummi-Boohbahs inside and cut-out models of all the Boohbahs plastered all over the box!
Sarah is just as evil as the Boohbahs themselves. I wonder if she's on their side..........
*gets severely paranoid*

*Bela Lugosi* · 07-20-2004, 02:50 PM

I'll give $10 to the first person who can eat a Boobah!

*cringes* Hmm...well, whoever eats it it'll be like that whole "Eat the rat" scenario. The guy I forget who it was was terrified of rats and only rats and he had them in his basement and he figured if he ate it he wouldn't have to be scared of them anymore...so he did...ok, I'm done my story...

Go back on to Boohbah bashing.

Cashodeen · 07-20-2004, 04:26 PM

Egad! Those things look like aliens!

Kids couldn't possibly like those. Evil is right.

Oh no Mossopp! That's a million times worse than when my friend gave me a Barney stuffed animal for Christmas years ago.
