If you've never had the pleasure of witnessing the lovable insanity of kids show "Yo Gabba Gabba!" you're missing out. The Nickelodeon show has featured such guest stars as Tony Hawk, Elijah Wood, The Shins, The Ting Tings and, of course, my favorite Biz Markie's Beat of the Day. Any kids show that has Biz Markie teaching kids to human beat box is a-OK in my book. Now it seems like Nickelodeon (and parent company Paramount) are looking to take "Yo Gabba" to the big screen. In an article in USA Today, the show's producer confirmed that a feature film based on the adventures of DJ Lance Rock, Muno, Foofa, Brobee, Toodee and Plex. How they plan to adapt the abstract music-based series to a movie remains to be seen but if they can make "Pee-Wee's Playhouse" into a movie, they can do it with "Yo Gabba." Later this year Jack Black, Amy Sedaris, Jack McBrayer and others will be guesting on the show bringing it even more indie cred (if that's possible). If you've never had the pleasure of "Yo Gabba Gabba's" company, check out some of their videos here.

My kids love the show and while I haven't seen any episodes (just the clips on Noggin), it's supposed to be really good. Plus, if I remember correctly, the theme song is from the Ramones.

My 2 year old goes re-re for this show and dances the entire time it’s on. Best kid show ever. Also fun to watch while drunk with friends.

yo gabba gabba is a great love of mine. It is quite unique and hard not to dance to the songs. Rhythm not necessary. Glad to hear they might be making it into a movie.

Although The Backyardigans is still my favorite out of the current generation kids' shows, there's no denying that Yo Gabba Gabba is the most original (and probably the smartest as well). If Nickelodeon has to make one of their shows into a movie I'm glad they chose this one.



Also yes, Speed Racer was awesome.



Also, tylerj is your brother the guy from the aquabats...

Nice!
Anyone who has to sit through kids shows knows how awesome YGG is.



Tyler - great job to your and your brother.



GabbaGoo - guessing you don't have kids, so you have the luxury of not having to sift through crap on kids tv.

My brother co-created this show (and I got to work on the pilot)... I'm super stoked to hear this news. I can only imagine the insanity they'd create with a feature film budget!!
