The Upside Down Show is a new series for pre-schoolers that showcases the eye-popping physical comedy of the Umbilical Brothers.
Disc One contains the following episodes:
Art Museum
Shane has created an artistic masterpiece but doesn't know where to hang it. On a door? On a fridge? On Mrs Foil? Finding an Art Museum might be easy enough... if they knew what an Art Museum was. They try everything. Even washing their pet elephant, Bruno, doesn't help. Will they find the Art Museum and will they know what to do when they get there?
Barber Shop
Shane has suddenly grown a lot of hair that just gets longer wherever he goes. How did he get it? He isn't sure but it could have something to do with vacuuming Mrs Foil...or being in the Very Very Hairy Room. Shane is very nervous about finding the Barbershop and Dave's blankie, Bob, isn't promising to be much help.
Duration: 60 minutes Rating: G
Disc Two contains the following episodes:
Farm
One of Dave's pets, Clarabelle the Clinking Clanking Cowbell Cow, goes missing after Shane fails to complement her. Finding Clarabelle would be easier if she wasn't so...invisible. Where would an insulted and disappointed invisible cow go? If they could just hear her bell they might be able to find her when even playing her favourite song Udder Chaos fails to bring her home.
Ice Cream Truck
Everyone gets delicious, delectable and delightful Ice Cream except for Shane and Dave. Mrs Foil, Puppet, even the Schmuzzies have Ice Cream. Everything possible conspires to stop them getting to that beautiful taste. When they find themselves in the This Way Room and they need to go That way and That Way is definitely not This Way it seems like they will never get to the ice cream truck.
Disc 3 contains the following episodes:
Camping
Most people have no trouble finding a place to sleep but most do not find a herd of elephants in their bedroom, or a marching band. For David and Shane, the problem becomes critical as they get so tired they can't stand up. Just their luck to finally go to sleep in the Wake UP Room, or on a triangle in the Shape Room. And where is Mrs Foil when you need her?
Pet Shop
Shane has Fido the invisible fly to keep him company and David knows that he too needs a pet. Just one problem...where do pets come from? They do manage to find an unhelpful parrot who repeats everything they say. They even go to the moon where Puppet has been to the dark side and seen a bowling alley and guy selling cheese. But where will David find a pet?
Disc 4 contains the following episodes:
Airport
Puppet's cousin, Mary-Annette, is coming to town and while Puppet prepares the traditional puppet welcome song, Shane and David have to find then airport. What is an airport and where would it be if you knew what it was? In the Bird room? Maybe the Action Fingers, Knuckels and Pointy, can help them out.
Beach
The Shmuzzies know where to find a "schmeach shmall" - at the "schmeach" of course, even though Shane thinks that means North Lithuania. Their journey takes them everywhere - underwater, to the desert and even to the South Pole. If only they could find out where a beach is they could take the beach ball back to where it belongs.

Disc 5 contains the following episodes:
Mini Golf
Dave and Shane are baffled when a round orange non-planet thingy shows up in their living room. What on earth could it be and where does it live? Not in outer space or on a basketball court. Fido the Fly thinks it belongs in his tennis shorts an Puppet thinks it could play Hamlet on stage. Maybe the Action Fingers can sort it out.
Picnic
Fido, Shane's pet fly is so sad because he has never been on a picnic. They gather together the things they need - a picnic basket, a kite, a door knob - but are missing some important bits of information: What is a picnic and where do you find one? Certainly not with an elephant in the No Room room. Fido is becoming desperate and even the Happy Fly Ditty is not helping.
Disc 6 contains the following episodes: Movies: Having polished the Snooglenook, Shane and David make a stupendous movie but confuse a Laundromat with the Movie Theatre when they try to screen it. At least The Action Fingers manage to reunite Lefty the sock with his lost partner, Barbara.
Birthday Party: The Shmuzzies are having a Shmirthday Shmarty and Shane and Dave are invited. Trouble is, no one tells them where it is or who it is for. They look for it in the No Fun room and the Opera room but no one has celebrations there. Even the Surprise room has the wrong surprise.
Marching Band: Shane’s air banjo sounds as awesome as David’s air guitar and Mrs Foil’s real tuba. It makes them want to march but they are going to need to use David’s super-sensitive hearing – so good he can hear cats in China – to find out where to go.
