I have sat through this truly horrendous series on ABC Kids with my daughter.

Let's be blunt. The pacing and editing is sloppy, the writing is poor, the song choices lamentable, the choreography tired. In fact, it's the exact opposite of the Wiggles pre Emma, Lachy and Simon.

All three 'newer' Wiggles have now been around just as long as Sam was, but they clearly have no on screen chemistry. Greg, Sam, Murray and Geoff make them all look like hacks.

I concur with the other reviewer on two points: 1)The constant Irish dancing, bag pipes and ballet will drive you absolutely insane, as will the incredibly weak singing, which lacks even a smidgen of harmony, or energy. Listen to them murder Wiggles classics like 'Big Red Car', or 'Fruit Salad' with Emma's pip squeak voice and Simon's dominant baritone. You'll cringe.

2) Creative control needs to be wrestled from Anthony and the rest of the Fields. Time for a new perspective.

Do as I did, go to eBay/Gumtree and buy a DVD from their back catalogue. You won't regret the purchase, the 'Old' Wiggles really kick arse, which makes this series even more unfortunate.
