'''''Yo Gabba Gabba!''''' is a kids' show on Nick Jr. with a whole lot of content that doesn't exactly seem oriented towards kids. It was co-created and is written by Christian Jacobs, also known as MC Bat Commander of [[The Aquabats!]], and directed by Matt Chapman, co-creator of ''[[Homestar Runner]]''.
 
Each episode focuses on [[Excited Kids' Show Host|DJ Lance Rock]]'s magical toys; Muno, Foofa, Brobee, Toodee and Plex; playing together and learning new things. Their adventures are loosely connected by a single theme, and are separated by [[What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made on Drugs?|trippy]] filler segments, including:

== ''Yo Gabba Gabba'' has examples of: ==
* [[Acid Trip Dimension]] / [[World of Chaos]]: Almost everything in Gabbaland has a face and can talk, including a piece of toast with bat wings. Yes, really.
* [[Broken Aesop]]: In "Differences", Muno gets glasses (or rather, a glass, because he has only one eye) and learns that it's okay to look different. At the end of the episode, he decides to use a contact lens instead because the glasses keep falling off his face, so he looks [[Status Quo Is God|no different than he did before]].
Line 31:
* [[Expy]]: Brobee, Muno, and Gooble are all based on Aquabats villains.
* [[Fish Out of Water]]: Jack Black in "New Friends".
* [[Forgot I Could Fly]]: A [[Running Gag]] with DJ Lance. Characters will periodically have to remind him that he can fly, which he'll then demonstrate. [[BigNon LippedSequitur Alligator MomentScene|This has no bearing on the plot]].
* [[Gentle Giant]]: Muno, a huge fanged cyclops with a friendly and overly enthusiastic personality. Also, DJ Lance, who is quite literally a giant next to the main cast.
* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]: In an extremely literal sense. One animated short involving an animated character's newly cleaned car and said character dodging eggs from birds that lay egg in mid-flight or perching.
Line 38:
* [[Idiosyncratic Wipes]]: They're [[Shout-Out|Shout Outs]] to [[Retraux|80's video games]], with featured kids as the players.
* [[Keet]]: Muno
* [[Let's Meet the Meat]]: Recurring musical number [https://web.archive.org/web/20071213041727/http://www.yogabbagabba.com/#/party-in-my-tummy Party in My Tummy]. Would you like to go to the party?
** In one episode Brobee's birthday cake looks just like him, can walk and talk, and offer guests pieces of itself.
* [[Limited Social Circle]]: Gabbaland ''does'' only have 5 citizens.
Line 72:
* [[Stupid Statement Dance Mix]]: Every episode ends with a techno remix of lines and songs from that episode.
* [[Sugar Bowl]]
* [[Team Dad|Team Dads]]s: Plex and DJ Lance.
* [[Theme Tune Roll Call]]:
