• Crush of the Week: Imagination Movers

  As feedback to our 10 Most Crushworthy Children's Show Hosts, a Babble reader nominated this yummy foursome. We agree. Made up of Rich, Scott, Dave, and Smitty, these dudes look sexy even in cowboy hats, goggles, and strange blue auto-mechanic jumpsuits. Mmm. They're music to our ears and our eyes. Read More...

• Crush of the Week: Sean, the Sunny Side Up

  As feedback for our Ten Most Crushworthy Children's Show Hosts, a Babble Reader said, "I nurse a smoldering crush on him and his Western shirts." We can see why. Along with his chicken puppet side-kick, Chica, Sean sings and styles his way through the Sunshine Barn, leaving us swooning with desire. Read More...

• Crush of the Week: Jeff Hyslop, Today's Special

  For those of you unfamiliar with Today's Special, it was a show about four friends who worked in a department store and had adventures together. It had the potential to be enormously creepy, as one of the main characters Jeff, was a mannequin who came to life after the store closed each night. Jeff is so adorable, however, that it's easy to forgive his short-comings. He can sing, he can dance, and he has the soulful eyes of a young Billy Joel. What's not to like? Read More...

• Crush of the Week: Entire Cast, Zoobilee Zoo

  Ah, Zoobilee Zoo...magic and wonder were waiting for us every time we tuned in to this much missed children's show.  This menagerie of candy-colored anthropomorphic fur-clad hotties begged us to get in touch with our inner animal and we fell head over tails for the whole bunch.  We loved Mayor Ben’s authoritative style and were inspired by Van Go Lion, while the dads certainly dreamt of hopping around with Whazzat, the sexiest pink kangaroo we’ve ever seen.  If your significant other ever asks to see you in cat ears, then they may very well be harboring a residual Zoobilee Zoo fetish.

• Crush of the Week: Marc Summers, Double Dare & What Would You Do?

  Women everywhere can be thankful that Marc Summers was able to triumph over his OCD long enough to host one of the all-time messiest shows on TV. Marc won us over with his humor, sass, warm smile, and luscious hair.  Not getting enough Marc in your life?  No worries...after the kids go to bed, moms can get a extra helping of Marc’s yumminess by tuning in to see him on Food Network’s Unwrapped.  Heck, I sure wouldn’t kick him out of bed for eating cookies.

• Crush of the Week: Rockapella, Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?

  Ever wonder why so many Ivy League girls fall head-over-heels for the acapella guys? Maybe it started with this rockin' PBS quartet from Where In the World Is Carmen Sandiego?, cheap hats and ill-conceived haircuts notwithstanding. And for that, they are our Crush of the Week --Gwynne Watkins Photo: Rockapella Read More...

• Crush of the Week: Johnny from Johnny and the Sprites

  Anyone who saw his obscenity-laden, multi-puppet performance in the show Avenue Q surely fell in love with John Tartaglia (including the producers at Disney, who eagerly gave John his own kids’ show). John's character on the show has a great smile, sings, dances, is kind to woodland creatures — the total package. Plus he lives all alone in that big enchanted treehouse. Wouldn't it be cozier with two? Read More...

• Crush of the Week: DJ Lance Rock, Yo Gabba Gabba

  From his furry hat to his fancy feet, plastic glasses to studded belt buckle, it's impossible not to be charmed by Yo Gabba Gabba's DJ Lance Rock. Kids, parents, and non-breeders alike can enjoy regular lessons with his world's friendliest ghetto blaster, reminding us every day that "listening and dancing to music is awesome!" Read More...

• Crush of the Week: Reading Rainbow's LeVar Burton

  Last month, we ran a list on Babble called The Ten Most Crush-Worthy Children's Show Hosts by L.J. Williamson. It was a great list. Steve from Blue's Clues was #1. Melanie Martinez was #5. We thought we'd covered passionate feelings for the stars of children's television. But nay! Our designers, Mandalee and Derrick, and our photo editor, Lauren, staged a revolt! They went on YouTube. They went on comments boards. They concluded that they were not alone in their lust for LeVar Burton, DJ Lance and many, many others. And so, behold, a new weekly feature is born. First up: We heart LeVar!    Read More...
