Meet Shaun the Sheep


So I am a HUGE Wallace & Gromit/Nick Park fan and greatly enjoyed the W&G classic A Close Shave featuring the adorable little sheep Shaun. Well Shaun was so popular that the character was spun off into a series of shorts featuring Shaun on the farm with his sheep, dog, farmer and pig friends. The series airs in the U.S. on the Disney Channel and while they had been showing only one short a week, lately, it's been ramped up to a few times a week. I've been watching them faithfully and while they are definitely aimed for kids and thus a little hit or miss, there are some really funny ones wedged in. Check out these two shorts in particular (both of which cracked me up over the weekend) and let me know what you think!
