i forgot that tuck is a red eared slider. i watched this with my cousin back in 2009. just this friday, we watched it again.
me:what's the episode?
lil cousin zerah: wonderpets join the circus.
after a few seconds.
me:wait. can we rewind it? i have to check something.
(we paused it and i took a screenshot)
me:what is that? what is that? (getting excited)
zerah: a turtle. tuck the turtle. you know turtles?
me: what?? tuck is a red eared slider? awesome!
after that i patiently explained to my cousin the similarities and differences between tuck the turtle and dumbork.
i have to break her heart and tell her that no, Dumbork cannot talk (and sing), and she can't wear a cape, hat, and shoes, either.
s for the win!
