The best kids program on TV! A must see for anyone who wants their child to love great music. Laurie Berkner, the cornerstone musican on the show, is talented and diverse in the spectrum of children's indie rock tunes. In one episode the legendary guitarist Buddy Guy appears as the "King of Swing", whom Jack gets a special visit from because he finds a "golden ticket" in his new "King of Swing" CD. Other children's music notables such as Milkshake, Music for Aardvarks & Other Mammals, and Rebecca Frezza have fun music videos that provide some engaging eye candy to dance around a room to. With at least two music videos per episode and a number if other original songs preformed by the Muppet cast it has an exciting pace and will get even the most apatetic indivigual moving! So watch it and get moving! The best part is as a parent you will love it too!! Exciting, fun, and Joyous entertainment filled with some of the best music on TV. Jack, Mel and Mary are adorable characters that inspire the best in young children and their parents. A rare find in a sea of flat uninspiring children's programing that is flooding the air waves.

Wow! This is a really cute, fun, entertaining, and educational show. I said that because I watch this on Noggin with my 16-month-old nephew from time to time. It's hard to say which show on Noggin is the best. Still it's really cute, fun, entertaining, and educational. The music is really fun to move and sing along to as well. Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say that the people at Noggin really know how to reach a toddler's developing mind. Now, in conclusion, if you have children, nieces, or nephews, I strongly recommend this really cute, fun, entertaining, and educational show. I guarantee you that they will enjoy it.

My daughter is only 2 and begs to watch the show. We TIVO it regularly and she goes nuts over the show. I have seen every episode thus far at least 10 times each. It beats the heck out of Booh Baah and other trash like that. The music in it is cool. I even can live with it. My daughter would rather watch this show than any other on TV. She usually doesn't even watch TV but goes nuts when this is on. At least it teaches values and counting etc... It is a great show. The fact that Jack is such a music freak is really cool as well. He likes all kinds of music. My favorite is the Schwarzman Quartet those guys are really cool. They are in every episode and sing really cool songs. Laurie Berkner is really cool as well. There are other kid friendly groups that perform as well. Lot's of fun!!!

I just watched this with my 3 year old daughter and could have closed my eyes and seen Grover, Prairie Dawn, Baby Bear and all those lovable characters. A show consisting of 3 puppets, and special guests. They have music videos throughout the show with child friendly performers and other children dancing around. Jack has a club house in his backyard and invites the viewers and his friends to come over for musical fun. They have guests like the Schwartzman Quartet, baby Wolf (from the big bad wolf family), and many others. They discuss different musical instruments and generally engage children through music. I like this show and am convinced that Mary is the same puppeteer who plays Praire Dawn on Sesame Street. Enjoy the show!
