Summary: My Toddlers Didn't Enjoy As Well As Other Wiggles
Comment: Gone are the upbeat songs and catchy lyrics that my toddlers enjoy so much (and me too).

The Wiggles don't even appear that much in this video. Captain Feathersword and the dancers sail around the world and intro the upcoming cities. Songs are about the cities and not the Wiggles usual catchy, silly songs. I think the Wiggles must have been gone on tour somewhere and left Captain Feathersword in charge of this one. The Wiggles don't appear that much. My toddlers usually love the Wiggles but this video doesn't even hold their attention. If your child is a little older and can follow lengthy dialog then they may enjoy this or if Captain Feathersword is their absolute favorite. But for my toddler boys, they just want to sing and dance around like crazy with the Wiggles.

I recommend Top of the Tots for enjoyable songs that you will find yourself singing along with. We still love the Wiggles (especially the blue one) but this video falls short.

Summary: Avoid this one!
Comment: My kids are big fans of the Wiggles but they could not sit through this one. The skits in between songs are dull are take up too much time. Way too much of the annoying Captain Feathersword and not enough of the Wiggles.

Summary: Pathetic
Comment: The Wiggles make cameo appearances in this video featuring Captain Feathersword who should probably remain a supporting castmember. The Wiggles magic is nowhere to be found on this video...As many have said before me...save your money on this one. Sorry Wiggles.

Summary: Save your money and your sanity!
Comment: My son is one of the biggest Wiggles fans in the universe and even he won't watch this video twice. It is primarily Captain Feathersword being obnoxiously lame, and the songs aren't all that great. Get Live Hot Potatoes or Wiggly Wiggly World instead.

Summary: The Wiggles have abandoned ship
Comment: I've had this one for many months
But delayed my review
`Cos I kept drifting off to sleep
Before the show was through

The Wiggles have abandoned ship
They must have writer's cramp
They've made the S.S. Feathersword
No bigger than a stamp

The Captain "travels" round the world
and makes us twitch and groan
The Wiggles pop in now and then
And call this one their own

They "go" to Sydney, London, Greece
And Sicily as well
This ocean faring fairy tale
Gives off a fishy smell

San Francisco's cable cars
Then on to Mexico
How they can look us in the eye
I guess we'll never know

The set is cheap, the props are too
The costumes a disaster
Wait `til you see the rainy gear
You'll roll around with laughter

Some of the songs are pretty good
I wouldn't call them great
And when they're stuck for filler stuff
They simply animate

Some older kids may like this one
The young ones will be bored
When I think of what they used to do
The Wiggles have me floored
