Lets all come and play with DJ Lance Rock today!
If you're a fan of the show, we know you just sang along with the lyrics and finished it off with a roaring coarse of:
Yo Gabba Gabba! Yo Gabba Gabba! Yo Gabba Gabba! Yoooooooooo!
Momlogic sat down with co-creator Christian Jacobs, to talk about how things are faring in Yo Gabba Land on the heals of the Yo Gabba LIVE Tour ("There's a Party In My City") and the release of their first CD "Music Is Awesome!"
Momlogic: Where did the idea for Yo Gabba Gabba come from? Someone has an amazing imagination!
Christian Jacobs: We were just watching other children's programs with our own children and thought it was time for our generation to step up and make something for the kids. We have had a bunch of these crazy ideas for years but it was really our families that helped us harness our energies and create this show!!
ML: Obviously this show appeals to parents as much as it does to adults. What is the key to entertaining both audiences?
CJ: Well, we have to really think about the children first. I think the execution of the show appeals to adults because it's very pop. Its very homagey (is that a word?) to all of the stuff we watched as kids so that helps. But ultimately I think we are making a show we want to watch with our kids so we (as adults) aren't out of the equation completely.
ML: Who is your favorite Yo Gabba Gabba character and why?
CJ: I really like Muno. He is a cyclops, i am a cyclops. He is kinda awkward, I am kind of awkward. I also like Plex more and more because he tries really hard to do a lot and is pretty thankless. He is kind of taken for granted and that's kind of funny. He does all this crazy magic and it's like no big deal!
ML:
This season boasts some really cool guest stars (The Roots, Andy Samberg, MGMT, Jack Black, etc.) How do you get these guys to join in the fun?
CJ: Wow! I dont know!? I think they get it. I know with the Roots and Jack Black they have kids and they love to watch the show with their kids. Amir (from The Roots) told me that this show reminds him of a lot of shows we all watched when we were kids. We're all Pop culture junkies!!
ML: Who would be your dream Yo Gabba Gabba guest?
CJ: We just had DEVO on the show so I can retire, but I would love to have the Pixies on the show!! Bad Brains would be pretty cool! But of course Bill Murray!! He rules!
The music on the show is awesome, especially for us moms who REALLY love music. You even had Mates of States on one time. Who on the team LOVES music?
WE ALL LOVE music! I mean that is the common denominator at the office and on set. We all are really big music fans. We met DJ Lance Rock at a music store where he worked. Everyone (it seems) writes music for the show.
