    So this morning my kiddo asked me for Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood (ie, like Mr. Rogers, but for a new generation - explanation for those without kids) which is available on Amazon Prime. So I queued it up and was mildly disturbed by it playing the sound is 1/4 (or slower) speed. I had to take a video of it:

    Frankly it is mildly disturbing when watching at regular speed ;)

    Any time this show comes on (usually following Curious George) my wife immediately homes in on the remote control and turns off the TV. Heck, I grew up on Mr. Rogers, and it took me a few months of seeing the show come on to realize it was a cartoon riff on the old show.

    That's funny - I would do the opposite. My wife and I both think that Daniel Tiger is a great show for kids, but I friggen HATE Curious George.

    I work from home, so I hear a lot of Little Einsteins, Thomas, Super Why, Daniel Tiger, etc. But no Calliou. NEVER CALLIOU!

    Play it at half speed and you hear it as it must have been recorded. Sounds a bit like Grandaddy!
