Info

The Upside Down Show, was a Logie Award winning show featuring Shane Dundas and David Collins that airs on Noggin, Nick Jr. Australia and ABC Australia. On the show they play brothers who live together in a strange house with a variety of unusual rooms. The show premiered on Nick Jr. Australia in August 2006 and on Noggin US on 16 October 2006, with 13 episodes developed by the highly acclaimed Sesame Workshop. The Sesame Workshop logo used on this show can only be seen on Noggin. Initial views of The Upside Down Show were disappointing, as it failed to match the views of Play With Me Sesame and Caillou during the 2006-2007 season. The show's début was criticized as being similar to Ernie and Bert. On 27 December 2006, in a New York Post interview, Shane Dundas expressed doubts about the return of the show for a second season. On 1 June 2007, the Umbilical Brothers announced on their website that Nickelodeon/Noggin USA were not interested in a third season of The Upside Down Show, despite its success. In 2007, the show won the Creative Craft Daytime Emmy Award for Main Title Design and a Parents' Choice Award Silver Honor for Television.

The Upside Down Show Audience Reviews

BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment
BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See
Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
nbsmith20 The first time I saw this show I thought "what are these guys on?" Then I watch again, and found myself getting up at 4 am (the time it airs in my town) just to watch it. Now I have VDR so I have all the episodes on it (sadly only 13). My daughter (2) loves it, I've noticed she talks more (says more words) including "upside down", "action fingers" among others. She also interacts with the show. Even though she has seen the episodes over and over again, it's like she seeing it again for the first time.I am very "upset" at the fact Nickolodeon and Noggin did not ask for a second season. I hope somebody does soon, and if not, and they would only make it for DVDs that I had to purchase, I totally would! BRING IT BACK!!!!
cydonia-1 My 18-month old nephew got me hooked on this show! Now my mom and I watch it even more than he does.These two guys are really creative and funny. They aren't Barney-like silly (no offense to Barney), so they can appeal to an older audience as well as to children.I can definitively say that no other children's' program is as creative and appealing as the Upside Down show! I'm so glad that American television shows this program. While we're all laughing, my nephew is learning a lot about shapes and colors, as well as cooperation and sharing. David and Shane are teaching their young viewers values and good behavior, which is another great thing about this show.It's a wonderful program, and I can't really say enough about it. You'll just have to check it out for yourself!
patrickmedberry Started watching this show with my 4 month old granddaughter (who basically smiles at the moving pictures) but I am hooked. Are these guys good!!! Absolutely hilarious. they are masters at pantomime and physical humor. Their trip to the art museum was too funny! Another time they were in the sticky room and stuck to the walls. Amazing. They talk to a fly, they have strange little fluffy things called schmuzzies for friends. you never know what will happen next. The show encourages children to be silly and have fun pretending. I now watch the show regularly and I am 56. I would love to know more about these guys. I hope this show becomes a HUGE HIT.
claudek-2 thank god for the Upside Down show. it is an excellent, witty, entertaining show. And it's in Australian accents. it's terrifically inventive...surreal...intelligent. The performances are engaging and imaginative and the writing very clever. the physicalisation of everything is inspiring eg the characters dangling upside down. the door knocking games....the rewinding of the fingers destroying the sand castle, the talk of yoga poses, the investigation of all the elements of a beach.... the miming knitting...my daughter responds to it all. it's refreshingly noncommercial and the miming games are easy to continue playing once the show is over. i feel a bit guilty letting my child watch too much television, but not if the shows are in the spirit of this one. i had a 6 year old watching the show with my 5 year old daughter last night and he was laughing hysterically. Congratulations to the whole creative crew. I hope you all become millionaires from it!
