Back in the mid-90's when Barney-bashing was at its height, I remember hearing
about a lot of adults *with* small children who were going crazy from all the
Barneymania (uh, the adults, that is...not the kids :-).
But I actually *like* Elmo even though I detest Barney. How do you explain
that? And I hate Jar-Jar far, far, far more than I hate Ewoks. I guess I
wouldn't even say that I hate Ewoks -- I just found them annoying because they
didn't look real enough -- you could tell they were fur suits.
