The Moogie Show

The Muppet Show meets JibJab, the Moogie show offers a virtual escape by combining current political figures with sketch comedy.



I came across The Moogie Show when it was first introduced to Youtube about a month ago. The opening is what you would expect of toddler’s educational program and then introduces the to a crude and “bovine ball breaker”.

With only 5,000 views, the channel isn’t hugely popular, yet I think there is unique and inventive about this personified hand puppet.

In his short-lived career, Moogie has also interviewed Osama Bin Laden and Ahmadinejad. In this episode, the cuddly cow who asks hard-hitting questions sits down with an Elvis-impersonating King Jong Il. Watch as he uncovers hidden secrets about the Supreme Leader of North Korea!
