If you don't like this show you're insane. This show is very educational, has beautiful songs, is extremely entertaining for all audiences, and isn't afraid to explore topics that other kids shows wont. We've seen interspecies romance, a kid almost get taken away by a balloon, the controversy surrounding Pluto being tackled, tough science concepts, amd even a metaphor for racism in an episode. Everything about this show is perfect and its the best preschool show of our decade.

Oh C'mon Man I said no more Ready jet go And I watch mathemagics not freaking garbage baby show. I'm too Old for this show and I like Thundercats roar and Mao Mao and other shows I like better. Ying yang yo is my favorite show not Ready jet go. Alphablocks is Better than Ready jet go by pbs kids. I like Anime shows. Waste of money on that.
