i used the love this show but it genuinely gives me the ick😭
I genuinely hope oobi dies
I remember watching this show as a child, it scared the hell out of me. Seriously thought this was a bad fever dream or something I thought up until now
this show was my childhood omg
oobi's theme song lives in my brain
as a kid born in the early 2000’s i just realized this show was not a fever dream
3:00 jumpscare warning
10:11 how do hands fuck..?
Do they make the gestures, or do they have actual sex organs that would facilitate said activities?
I vividly remember being in the dentist waiting room at like 6 years old with this on the TV. It was a segment where the hands were trying to high five but kept missing, and the girl hand was like "I can't dooo it…" It was the weirdest thing I'd ever seen as a kid lol
Compayito ujujuy
I never watched Oobi, but knowing that it was the origin of the Wonderpets? That was my childhood. Really pleased that this show ever existed.
The moment I saw the piano teacher, I immediately knew that she would be perfect for grandpa. So happy for them.
Shoutout to all the Y2Kids who grew up with Noggin when it shared the channel with TeenNick when it was The N.
Oobi is when my parents was still drking after 3
I've been trying to remember the name of this show for 3 years. Perhaps for the first and only time, bless the algorithm
C-Compayito?!
This unlocked such a hidden memory in my brain, growing up in the 2000s was such a great time
Something about knowing an avant-garde puppet show was on Nick is hilarious to me
I distinctly remember a toy of this i had as a kid: a pair of googly eyes attached to a ring you'd wear on your middle finger to make it look like a character from oobi. Seriously.
this shit scared me as a kid
