Filed under: Toddlers Preschoolers, Preschoolers, That's Entertainment
Pancake Mountain is a children's television show based in Washington, DC, created by filmmaker Scott Stuckey. The show has appearances by musicians such as Ian MacKaye of Fugazi, Thievery Corporation, Steel Pulse, The White Stripes, Henry Rollins, Jenny Lewis and others.
Regular Pancake Mountain characters include an irascible goat puppet named Rufus Leaking and a superhero, Captain Perfect, who is not perfect but "tries to do his best each day." Like other children's shows, there is dancing and music and learning opportunities, only with this show, "M" is for "Mohawk."
If Barney has got you down, a serving of Pancake Mountain might just be to your taste.
