Just visited the SN:tv (the auzzie version of SM:tv) mini site on the Nickelodeon Au website and they now have their own version of chums called "M.A.T.E.S" there's also the old C.H.U.M.S story maker on there too but under the "M.A.T.E.S" title though!.

Suprised no-one's mentioned today's show yet. In the crate two hyena puppets, very similar to Bro & Bro- the What's Up Doc & Wolf It wolves in the 90s. Might well be the same two people as well. Wonder how similar the act will be (like will they eat half the kids like Bro & Bro did)

Didn't really get much to see them as they were only at the end of the show, but I liked the joke at the very end - very much like the Wolves, they'll be good for the programme.

First show I've seen in full for a while and it's holding out well now.

From the voices it does sound like the people behind Bro & Bro and The Leprechauns, as I expected. Also hyena's as I expected.

Yeah the show is doing well at the moment, and I think that the hyena's will just add to it. I presume that they'll have their own little bits of the programme, though hopefully they will interact with Stephen, Holly & the guests too.

Also unlike past MoM features, the majority of the current ones have been running since Janaury and haven't got old yet, though hopefully they'll start to change an idea or two or mix it up a bit.

Even though Ram Ray is still great (and poor Ray today, though I'm sure he caught on that they were all wood), shouldn't they mix it with Swing Ray or something so it people don't get sick of it?

Yesterday's show was good again but then again they all are thesedays. Just think how far it has moved on in 6 months!

Lots of mistakes again, including when Mr Lee, who seems to be moved along on a sort of platform, didn't move out of shot far enough. Name that Tone still seems a bit wrong being so early in the preceedings and rushed a bit. Those quick items like Stephen scaring Holly are good, Holly must be a bag of nerves all week!

I don't think they should rest Ram Ray yet as its still good, "Is this a game?". I don't think Ray realised they were all going to be wood until the last one when Stephen made it obvious.

Next week guests include McFly plus it'll be the first time we see what the Hyenas have to do, along with the other characters The Doc, Ray and Mr Lee (who even joins in the dance thesedays!)

It is indeed becoming a great show.
I'm intrigued as to how they will play the hyenas.
They were great in the little bits yesturday, especially the fact that they weren't in the crates at all.
I quite liked the little bit before the thankyou desk too when Stephen had dropped one of the notes and one of the hyenas (surely a competition will be used to create names, as always) picked it up for him, then the other one kept going towards the camera, that seemed very familiar and much welcomed.

Another point, when Stephen & Holly were heading towards the fridge and the camera went onto the Doc, was that his real hair or was it another wig trying to confuse viewers?

I just hoped that they were bits of wig. No offence, but no man should have those bits of hair like that. It reminds me of that character that Gregor Fisher played, can't remember what it was called though.

If you're that bald, just shave it off.

I knew it was them straight away. I used to watch What's Up Doc & Wolf It, and I got hold of a Wolf It video last year (sadly don't have it any more. There was only 4 episodes on it anyway,I would love to get hold of more) so I was pretty sure it was them straight away.
