Re: LazyTown Iconified?

Unless I'm missing the glaringly obvious, I doubt there will ever be another show with CGI and Actors and Puppets, that kind of effort normally goes into movies!

Modern Sesame Street does all three as well.


Something very iconic about LazyTown is the cold openings for every episode! With Sportacus doing a few tricks, saying a punchline related to health then the intro kicks in.

Re: LazyTown Iconified?

To me, what makes LazyTown special is that it is ultra-colourful, humorous, witty, musical, a bit odd, and isn't "dumbed down" for the kids. The writing makes an effort to not talk down to its viewers and approaches the episodes with the intention of just great storytelling. You don't get that often with children's shows.

Re: LazyTown Iconified?

Sportacus doing stunts that require edited out things to make it possible, like the one hand handstand, I believe some shots used an edited out pole to hold the leg.
Also, when Sportacus did flips in Ziggys 2nd birthday episode and In Swiped Sweets, some flips are done silently - but then shouldn't they still have the swish as their moving the air around them?

idk - im just going too into detail

Re: LazyTown Iconified?

That swoosh sound you hear all the time in Sportacus and/or Stephanie scenes.

Ahh I see... This was all for the music video for Lazytown forever, and it even included my yelling out Robbie Rotten example!

Re: LazyTown Iconified?

Sportacus simply doesn't KNOW how to use walking as a method of transportation. xD

wasn't he walking/running in "Sportsday" ?

Re: LazyTown Iconified?

Agreed.
The first LZT scene I ever saw was Sporty in his airship and that's what immediately struck me, the fact he wasn't simply walking anywhere.

I was talking to some people on YouTube and we just generally agreed that the flips aren't actually about showing off, Sportacus simply doesn't KNOW how to use walking as a method of transportation. xD

Sportacus being almost completely unable to sit still and relax

Re: LazyTown Iconified?

The musical clips, LazyTown is a great musical show, the episodes without a song like ''Who's who?'' and ''The purple panter - Part 2'' are strange or boring for me.

Re: LazyTown Iconified?

Sportacus being almost completely unable to sit still and relax. Stephanie's optimism and will to make a change. And then there's the LazyTown calendar. It seems like it's a really eventful town that has a "day" for almost anything.

Also Robbie Rotten's rhyming routine (hey, that's alliteration!), but I guess that would go under "Disguise time". I think his obsession with cake also counts

Re: LazyTown Iconified?

Robbie or Ziggy imitating one of Sportacus's moves and failing miserably.

Re: LazyTown Iconified?

The way robbie says forever. Calling fruit and vegetables sportscandy. The crystal goes bip bip bip bip Sportacus: Someone's in trouble *signature move*

Re: LazyTown Iconified?

When Robbie is in a disguise and people question his actions and he does the "Have you ever ____? Do you know _____? Do you even have a _____? That's what I thought."
