I remember there was an alternate ending where Leslie the blond girl makes a wish at the fortune telling machine and turns young so she can be with Josh. The final scene had her come into Josh’s class as a new student. Then they all watched the porn flick of the day.
I saw it in New Zealand.
This is my go-to whenever anyone complains about The Night Garden or Caillou or anything else…it just boggled the mind.
Stranger than Cartoontown, that’s for certain.
And yet, it sounds oddly familiar–as if I’d read about it in an old Starlog or something…
The Altered State of Druggachusettes. 
Actually I tried to find the Boohbah Zone web site for when I posted earlier, but it seems to be offline now, so I settled for Teletubbies. I haven’t actually seen the Boohbah show, but the web site was certainly very weird.
Yeah, I was coming in to mention Boohbah also. (actually after reading the OP my first thought was “ok, I’m skeptical, but please let this be a real show… with a youtube link”). I remember quite distinctly my first encounter with Boohbah, around 2003 perhaps? I had just smoked a joint and clicked the Weird Earl which took me to a page with strange, interactive but totally pointless games based on Boohbah. One activity in particular was one of those musical loops where there are different tracks you could stop/start by clicking the characters, and I played with it for almost an hour, occasionally asking myself why I was still doing this. (Incidentally I believe the WE caption was something like “yeah, we couldn’t figure it out either”).
Some days later I saw the TV show and kinda went “Aha, so that’s what that was…” and then moments later “ummm… huh?” Great show!
ETA: I think I was referring to the Boohbah Zone page njtt just mentioned.
Since no one’s mentioned Yogi Oki-Doki yet…
Okay, okay. It was a dream that I had the night when I read humaeast’s post. I contacted her through e-mail, and she said it WAS a dream.
Yeah, dig yourself out.
Is it just me or is that… umm… inappropriate?
Mind you, when I was actually a kid, there was Bill and Ben, the Flower Pot Men. They talked gibberish, and their best friend was a little weed.
It sounds like Wonder Showzen.
No shit Sherlock, what I dreamed was worse than my dreams about this E.T. poster I had up on my wall as a child…it looked at me with it’s eyes bleeding and saying “AAAA”
And this ONE Sesame Street skit I remember…
I saw someone talking about it on Yesterdayland…
It was where Big Bird dreams that he’s a six-inch-size canary and the two mean Muppets want him to be fed by a cat and suddenly, a LIVE cat arrives to eat Big Bird!
Bernd das Brot is a beloved German kids show about a depressed loaf of bread. Named Bernd. One of his catchphrases is “My life is hell.” It runs on a loop in the middle of the night.
Amateurs.
I give you - BooBah!

Amateur.
Well I’ll be damned - I swear I read the thread.
Anyone remember a live action young teen show from the mid-'90s that involved alien spores in plant pods taking over people’s minds? The pods looked like footballs, or elongated coconuts. There was a lot of green lighting. I think the alien parasites lodged in your neck. A lot of it took place in a school. I think the principal got infected. I want to say it was on Nick, but I can’t find anything about it when I look at listings of Nick programming.
I also thought it could be an episode of Are You Afraid of the Dark, Goosebumps, etc. but I’m pretty sure it went at least one season.
This has been bugging me for years because I’ve talked to my friends and come up with some crazy obscure shows we half remember, like Space Cases, Hey Dude, or My Brother and Me, but everyone thinks I’m crazy about the coconut pod people show.
What was that weird children’s show around 1999-2000 with a puppet that I think was supposed to be a white slimy worm but looked like … something else. I actually had nightmares about it.
