I found the Doodlebops boring and painful to watch. There were no lessons taught and the songs were completely mindless. The characters seem more interested in drawing attention to their clown outfits than they are in teaching about numbers, colors, the alphabet, manners, or anything else for that matter. They sing at least twice in every episode a mindless song that proclaims that they are, indeed, "the doodlebops." They show a live performance in each show, too. In it, you can watch the kids jumping around while the parents look bored to tears. Hopefully they didn't have to pay to get in! There is no comparison between this mindless drivel and the substantive lessons offered by their more famous inspiration, the Wiggles. This it truly "kidiot" TV.
It's been a awhile since I wrote my first comments, so I thought I'd give the doodlebops another chance. I watched about 3 episodes all the way through and it still is as bad as I remember. I honestly see zero value in this show. It even has some patently bad values- for example, Moe is constantly tempted to pull a cord that dumps water on his head. Despite being constantly warned not to pull it, he always lands up doing it. This seems to teach kids to give into their desires despite common sense and authorities over them.
Another example, DeeDee seems extremely self-centered with not repurcusions to her egocentric behavior. She usually lands up leading Rooney and Moe down the same path.
