We get "what do you mean you can't fast forward?" a lot. I also get the same response to "ready freddy"... the cute part is it's almost like she is offended that I called her Freddy. Silly kids.

My daughter doesn't get it that Dora is not on 24-7 anywhere except for our house. Whenever we go visit someone else, there is always a huuuuuuuge ordeal re: why THEY don't have Dora. The nerve. :-) LOL! My daughter doesn’t get it that Dora is not on 24-7 anywhere except for our house.

We took the kids to see Santa Claus II when my son was about 4. It was one of the first times he'd been in a movie theater. He cried at the end when we told him we couldn't just push a button so he could watch it again. We had similar TiVo-induced confusion at the movies.
