Whaddaya Know, Haddi-Man?
From Homestar Runner Wiki
Whaddaya Know, Haddi-Man? is a kids' show starring Homsar that was introduced in the email "for kids". Strong Bad thinks that children who were raised on this "crap" would be subjected to the following problems: getting held back, repeating the third grade, and low standardized test scores.

Theme Song Lyrics
KIDS' VOICES: Whaddaya Know, Haddi-Man?
MAN: We'll have an adventure
and several long trips
We'll make some new friends
And maybe get a bite to eat!!!
All 'cause we say....
KIDS' VOICES: Whaddaya Know, Haddi-Man?
HOMSAR: Ahh'm a trendy tote bag!
Counting Song Lyrics
Stave it
OFF
1 2 3
and now
you can
count to
THREE
This song was repeated fifty times — though the viewer only has to endure it three times before Strong Bad cuts away.
Letter of the Day
Apparently, each episode has a letter of the day. In the episode shown in the email "for kids", the letter is G. According to Homsar, it's a "healthy piece of real estate".
Similarities to Real Shows
- The theme song suggests an air of adventure, which is a common theme in contemporary children's shows.
- The paper cutout designs of the kids' heads that appear during the theme song hint toward one of the more common art styles in Blue's Clues. Also common in Blue's Clues is hearing children's voices interact with the host.
- This show seems to feature a specific letter each episode; also, it contains educational sub-cartoons, like Sesame Street.
- The Counting Song is repetitive, like many educational shows made for young children.
- The guitar-playing man during the Counting Song is very similar to the one that appears during songs sung on the kids TV show 'Between the Lions', and the way that the melody resembled popular music also hinted at the same show.
