Puppetry of the…Oh, Never Mind

December 8, 2006

Savvy purveyors of children’s entertainment throw in a little something for the parents, such as the stoner-friendly humor of SpongeBob. And few do it better than children’s entertainer Laurie Berkner, star of Jack’s Big Music Show on Noggin. In fact, she threw a bone to Gen X parents/Seinfeld fans everywhere in her song Doodlebugs, which features characters named Jerry, Elaine, George and Kramer.

But a promotional CD for the season two premiere of Jack’s seems a wee bit too eager to appeal to fathers. Berkner, in a snug sweater, has two strategically placed puppets…ya know, I’ll just let the photo speak for itself.

I think it looks like they were strategically placed there to avoid looking like they were putting something there for the fathers on purpose.

I've heard of them referred to as puppies but not puppets. Thanks for making me feel like a bad father!
