Sigh

Why does Nickelodeon suddenly start to run Nick Jr shows (Nee How Kai Lan) at 7 AM instead of Sponge Bob? Alan got upset this morning about it as he now ABHORS any of the preschool shows he contentedly watched last summer.

I vaguely remember them starting the younger children shows earlier in the summer last year but it was not an issue as he was either watching Noggin at the time or didn't really care.

Alas all of the other alternatives at 7AM I found this morning don't work (Cartoon Network - Ben 10, Disney Channel - Handy Manny, Disney XD - Even Stevens - PBS - Sesame Street). Have to see if we get Nicktoons, that would work I hope. There is on demand kids tv in a pinch, but I think the shows are less than a 1/2 hour  and I'd have to set it up :(

I let Alan watch tv in the morning so I can get ready or try to. We've done it for years.

If only Cartoon network had Pokemon at 7 not 8 AM, Alan would be very happy :)

DVDs and DVR/Tivo are the way to go. Steven adore the Pink Panther box set we bought and has been through it beginning to end several times. Of course, he's on his second time through of Monty Python's Flying Circus, so maybe you don't want to be listening to me! ;)

Alan also loved to watch the pink panther cartoons - he adored the very first one the DVD - he called it "Pink and Blue". Haven't tried Monty Python yet, he's been watching Get Smart and Green Acres with DH :)
