The Jumparounds have a new name?!

Same songs, same people, same look, but now they're the "Fresh Beat Band"? ?

Weird. ??

Yeah, I saw that too.  I was wondering what was up with that.  Maybe it made too many kids jump around?!

My DS was just dancing along to the JumparoundsFreshBeat Band.  He fell over, got up, and kept on dancing.  So maybe they did make too many kids jump around!

Perhaps it was the repeated death threats I sent them?

We switched our cable around and don't have noggin anymore (which, while might be harder, means we watch less tv - and we still have On Demand for emergenices).  They are one of the things I don't miss.  I kind of miss Moose, though...

Oh, I wasn't the only one sending those?

We noticed that this week too!!  DH said he missed "Loco Legs" and then was super excited last night when the song was on - of course he said he was excited b/c DS likes the song (which he does), but I wasn't totally buying it

But I have not a clue what's up with the name change though.

From what I've read, they changed the name because they were threatened with legal action if they didn't change it.  Apparently the name and the look was too close to another group called The Jumpitz.
