When you look at the origins of the show and the show’s characters, you soon realise that all bases have been covered. This has been finely tuned over a decade or more, so it works brilliantly.

It is High Definition TV - apparently the most expensive Kids’ TV show ever made at a million US dollars per episode. It is a mixture of real action, computer generated graphic cartoon and puppetry solidly based on a tried and tested stage show filled with chart topping songs.

Sportacus rejects being s SUPERhero in favour of being a SLIGHTLY-ABOVE-AVERAGE-hero, and he never ever preaches — he leads by example. This means that there is NO JUDGEMENT of good and evil.

The show is NOT about promoting health and exercise (of which it is often misrepresented). It is about helping kids made better choices in general.

So there is no evil per se. I mean — look at Robbie Rotten as the anti-hero. he’s not lazy — in fact he’s the most active person around! He’s not fat either. He’s actually a lot of fun. Check out his pirate disguise and the famous and fabulous song “You Are A Pirate” where Robbie Rotten is the Pirate.

One fo the biggest hit songs is Cooking By The Book — which is about making a cake! The cake is full of candy! One of the main kids character puppets eats candy all day and is always seen with a lollipop.

So the show is not anti-candy or anti-cake. Nothing is that simple. This show teaches kids that nothing is black and white! That evil generates a better good when overcome (and so has a purpose), that it is OK to paly videogames and have gadgets, but still important to interact socially, to plauy, dance and sing too.

As they sing: “No one is lazy in Lazy Town!”

Good, however can exist, though it is very hard to find amongst all the ambiguity.

For those who wish to disagree, I offer a numerical example. In number theory, natural numbers are all non-negative integers (zero is still debatable for being a “natural” number). They are called natural numbers because negative numbers do no exist in reality. The negative sign (-) is a projection of the mind or user onto a natural number (1,2,3…).

I bet most people would equate evil to negative forces (or negative numbers), and as such, negative is not natural; it is a projection to explain direction (up, down; right, left/wrong). And like all directions, they are only applicable from certain points of view.

Thus, evil does not exist. Hence why it is laughable when we try to bring it into existence to explain forces we cannot understand. You aren’t really laughing at the evil, but the porous attempt to portray an unnatural (and imagined) concept.
