Friday Funnies: SNL’s ‘Dora’ Satire
Saturday Night Live fans may remember this TV Funhouse video from a while back, the one where they lampooned Dora the Explorer and her side-kick Boots with a new character, Maraka and her side-kick Mittens. This video features wildly inappropriate questions interspersed with those gratingly long pauses you frequently see on Dora where the toddlers are given more than sufficient time to answer Dora’s leading questions.
It’s NOT for kids, though parents who’ve watched their fill of Dora will likely find Maraka’s question about “free will” and use of bleeped-out profanity at least a little bit amusing.
Friday Funnies . . . because parents need to laugh. At least once a week.
Author and columnist Meredith O'Brien gives you a peek behind the picket fences of modern day life and parenting in the 'burbs. With humor and candor, it's her take on real parenting in the real world.
