Whaddaya Know, Haddi-Man? is a kids' show starring Homsar that was introduced in the email for kids and was heard in the background in secret identity. Strong Bad thinks that children who were "raised on that crap" would suffer from the following problems: getting "held back", "repeating the third grade", and having "low standardized test scores".

And maybe get a bite to eat!!!

See main article: Stave It Off

Stave It Off is a song made to help kids learn to count, and plays multiple times in a row.

[edit] Letter of the Day

Apparently, each episode has a letter of the day. In the episode shown in the email "for kids", the letter is G. According to Homsar, it's a "healthy piece of real estate".

[edit] Similarities to Real Shows

  • The theme song suggests an air of adventure, which is a common theme in contemporary children's shows.
  • The paper cutout designs of the kids' heads that appear during the theme song hint toward one of the more common art styles in Blue's Clues. Also common in Blue's Clues is hearing children's voices interact with the host.
  • This show seems to feature a specific letter each episode; also, it contains educational sub-cartoons, like Sesame Street.
  • Prior to the "g" appearing on the screen, Homsar jumps around the scene's foreground and background, reminiscent of Sesame Street's "Near and Far" segments.
  • The Stave It Off song is repetitive, like many educational shows made for young children.
  • The children requesting the song to be played again is a reference to Teletubbies, where the video would be repeated as per request from the Teletubbies.
