Ah-ha! That explains it- it ain’t Nick Jr., but Viacom’s other kid network, [Noggin!](http://www.noggin.com/shows/nogginpresents.php)

> [@Noggin](#):

> Meet Chickiepoo, Fluff, and their newly hatched brother, Fuzzworth! They’re detectives! They love to use their problem-solving and observational skills to solve mysteries on the farm. There isn’t a case that this fluffy, industrious team can’t crack.

How ironic that the characters we were looking for are, in fact, detectives, who look for things! Looking at the interstitials, there ain’t much there for a show- it just looks like an interstitial to teach children about animals. “What animal is this?”

Also, I can see why we failed in our search before- not only is Nick Jr. not Noggin, but when one thinks of “birds,” one doesn’t think immediately of chickens. One thinks of flying birds. Chickens don’t usually fly- baby ones, especially.

Thank you, **Nutty Bunny** , for solving this for _all_ of us- especially me!

Googling it, [this animator](http://keelmy.blogspot.com/2007/03/under-rock.html) says he worked on “a pilot” as well as “an interstitial…” so maybe there is a possibilty of ChickiePoo and Fluff becoming a series?

Now that I think about it, who the hell is Moono?

Don’t forget Stick Stickly - Nicks biggest filler in the 90’s. They’d use him before, during, and after shows usually.

**Nutty bunny** , thank you, ever so much! _bows down_ I’m not worthy!  
I really was starting to think I was crazy.

Moono is here: [http://www.nickjr.com/shows/yo-gabba-gabba/index.jhtml](http://www.nickjr.com/shows/yo-gabba-gabba/index.jhtml)  
Scroll through the gallery until you see the red one. There’s a few pics but you really need the full-body shot to appreciate him.

[QUOTE=Charter Member]  
Just give him a novel to read?  
[/QUOTE]  
I’m sure he’s too busy writing his own novel to spend time _reading_ one.

And along these lines: [“Wildly Popular ‘Iron Man’ Trailer To Be Adapted Into Full-Length Film”](http://gizmodo.com/380207/iron-man-trailer-to-be-extended-into-full-feature-sources-say) I just hope they don’t screw it up by adapting it to a full-length movie.

I am familiar with _Yo Gabba Gabba!_, so I figured Moono was the thin red one, since he would easily fit up…you know.

I dunno how easily he’ll fit up, but it’s bound to be unpleasant, what with the knobs and arms and all. He’s the perfect weapon!!
