They're however old they are. And so, they love to watch cartoons but whenever I'm around they complain like why do we have to watch Finding Dory again? >> [LAUGH] >> And I'm like cuz Auntie Ellen is in it and they say can we watch something else? >> And I'm like okay, I'll put in Finding Nemo so. >> [LAUGH] >> After we watched that twice they wanted to see some other shows, and so I said okay, let's watch some of your shows, and as an adult you look at things a little differently. They love Dora the Explorer, you know that, and I don't get it, they call her explorer, but she's lost, isn't she lost? She's always asking for directions, use the GPS on your phone like everybody else does. Then they love Yo Gabba Gabba. You know that? It's very popular show. I don't know if you've seen it, but it's great if you want your kids to experience a rave. >> That's what- >> [LAUGH] >> That's what that seems to be. So I introduced them to some older kid shows that I used to enjoy, and again if you look at things as an adult, you see them differently. Like Winnie the Pooh, that show seemed very innocent, but now watching again, I have concerns. >> [LAUGH] >> Let's just look past the fact that Pooh doesn't wear pants, okay? Let's just- >> [LAUGH] >> Just a top. >> [LAUGH] >> And then the donkey, Eeyore, is just signs of severe depression, really. >> [LAUGH] >> Just a complete downer. If this were a cartoon that was on, there would be a psychiatrist character that would be. Every time he's on screen, I think I'm watching a commercial for Paxil, you know? Just, are you sad? Then I put on Sesame Street, and that's supposed to be educational, but Cookie Monster has the worst grammar I've ever heard. Me want cookie, me want to be good example. And then we turned on the Jetsons and now looking at that, I used to love that show. But we're now in the future and I realize nothing from that show has actually happened. We don't have flying cars or robot maids. We don't have a button that we can push for food, but we do have the Domino's pizza tracker, I'd rather have that anyway. So that's fine. >> [APPLAUSE] >> Anyway, we ended up watching Finding Dory again, and that never gets old for me, just like dancing.
