      They actually did a crossover with the fresh beat band and it's kwait a fun episode I love the adventures although I don't know how the fresh beats know about the Gabba characters like maybe their casts watch the show people probably thought that when the Gabba crew they don't have a group name not counting their superhero group name from the superhero episode so I'm just gonna to call them the Gabba crew so as I was saying when the Gabba crew appeared in Harper's pizza restaurant people probably thought the fresh beats reactions would be twist: oh my bananas who are you? Kiki: yeah we never seen you before and the Gabba crew would be like dj lance: hi I'm dj lance foofa:hi I'm foofa brobee: hi I'm brobee moono:hi I'm moona plex:hi I'm plex dj lance: we are from gabbaland but they somehow know who everyone they are as they just met them

    I vividly remember there being an online Yo Gabba Gabba platformer game that I played the hell out of. The plot was DJ Lance's star broke into six pieces and five of them fell into Gabba Land so Plex goes to look for them (each member of the gang has a piece and you have to ask nicely for them to give it to you) and the big twist ended up being (IIRC) Plex had the last piece and just. Didn’t give it back until DJ Lance asked nicely.

    There is something so funny about characters that are clearly from child media, interacting with the real world, but they don’t let their innocence become corrupted. Like that moment in TJVP is funny because the gang got captured but they don’t care, and still maintain that childlike whimsy.
    Like if a dead body showed up in Gabbaland, they’d probably sing a song about discovery, completely unaware of the implications, before Plex just zaps it away.

      Now that I think about your comment, if there was a 'villain figure' in this franchise, it has got to be Plex. He can just tell his friends about something, and they become easily influenced before he just takes it away. By doing so, he is preventing his friends from critically thinking about what they have learned, making him a manipulative influencer who has (almost) complete control over his subjects. Well, it depends... He can use it for good, like keeping his friends innocent, or he can take advantage of his abilities and use it for his own benefit.

    The only episode I ever saw was the Jack Black episode bc I remember being distracted midsentence and going, "Is that... Jack Black???" while speaking to my brother, and being so mesmerized by the show's (and Jack Black's) charm. My brother, a lawyer starting his 40s, began to regale to me Yo Gabba Gabba lore like it was his fucking hobby, and strangely, perhaps by the hypnotic charm of the show I actually found it fascinating.
    Also curse you for throwing me down the rabbit hole of Plex x DJ Lance shipping, and now there's fanfiction and art I can't ever unsee again.
