I am way late on this one, but I wanted to post anyway and leave my mark in cyberspace. My autistic 5 year old loves this show and it is more than tolerable for adults. I am really sad about this… I showed my kid a rip-off “slow-mo button” T-shirt that I was thinking about getting him for his birthday and he was happier than I’ve ever seen him… Really, he just freaked out like some teenager at a Beatles concert. I don’t follow the behind the scene stuff with Noggin (God knows its on all the f’n time at my house…) but I just can’t figure this thing out. These guys could make like a gazillion dollars (I’d give them my dough!) and I can’t possible think of why no one would want to hop along for the ride. The only thing that makes sense is that the powers that be in media want to block any content that actually encourages thought with intelligent wit…

Go Diego Go…. and take Dora with ya!

I don’t believe it! I knew something was going on! My daughters who are 23 months and 10 months simply ADORE this show. I would clock watch everyday to make sure we never missed it! I have never seen my 23 month old so enthralled with a show before TUDS. I remember when she first saw it she was about 16 months old and she was actuallylaughing in response. Anyone who has kids knows that’s amazing. It’s wonderful noggin is 24 hours now but without Shane and David it’s not as great as it could have been. Thank God for Wubbzy though!!

i have to say im very upset by this, not only do my 2 year old twin nieces love this show but its the only thing that actually gets thier attention. I have to say as an adult that watches my nieces all the time this is one of the few shows i actually like watching. Shane and David arent just entertainers for kids but also for us easily amused adults, if you want to call me that. Atleast tell me we can get the shows on dvd?

I am SO sad that you guys are not continuing with this show. My grandson, 2 1/2 is just positively entranced by your show. I just got done watching an episode about the cowbell and I was roaring through the whole show!! I wish you had some DVD/Videos of your season. I wanted to share it with others. You remind me a little bit of Monty Python. I wish the network would reconsider. I, myself, will miss your hilarious antics. …sigh…

Shane and David … was this really you replying? I am so sad if this is the case. My daughter who is 15 months old just loves your show. I mean .. come one .. she laughs so much and has learned so much from you guys. She plays “Action Fingers” with me all the time. Come on guys .. you are NOT the Wiggles … you have your own identity. There is nothing like you out there. Please … please follow trough. Try other ways to still be a part of our kids lives.

I wish you could have your shows available trough ITunes .. that would make my daughter so happy.

This is really sad … really …really SAD. =(

But, I do think LazyTown should go ! Dora, is an O.K show but LazyTown is kind of annoying,and I no one else wants an annoying show that your kids like to copy off of. My 3 year old likes to do that.

I am a big fan of the Upside Down show! I think it teaches little kids how to expand their minds. I laugh at their jokes and at all of the rooms.
( wake-up room, this way room,etc.) It also looks like fun to have a televison show all about imagination and a bit of learning thrown in there too! I wish you guys didn’t have to go. =(
We love you Shane and David

Shane and David absolutely NEED to continue at least another season!!!! My 24 month old daughter becomes entranced when they come on and I can’t pull her away from the television. I would really like to have some DVD’s of them b/c they have taught her very much…She even does “Action Fingers” - a 24 month old is doing what they do!! Someone has to convince these two that they are a huge influence on children. On a personal note, my husband and I love them just as much! We are always looking for new episodes to come on - they are absolutely incredible! They are not even close in category with the Wiggles!!!:(

Final Word on The Upside Down Show
6.1.2007
To all the fans of The Upside Down Show, we reluctantly have to give you some bad news. We have received word from Nickelodeon/Noggin USA that they don’t want to do a second season. After all of the positive feedback we’ve received from around the world, and the show’s critical success, this decision is somewhat mystifying. Our executive producer Michael Bourchier has looked into other avenues to get another season off the ground and keep the show alive, but unfortunately he has run out of options. So we’d like to thank everyone involved in the show at Sesame Workshop and Blink Films, from conception (thanks Kurt and Belinda) right through to production here in Oz. The production team was brilliant, and we couldn’t ask for a better crew. And now we must move on to other challenges. Thanks for watching!

~ Shane and David
