- Oh, sorting stuff.
How 'bout you?
- Oh, not much.
Do you wanna play a game?
(Tula gasps)
- Hoobygalooby, you bet I do.
What game do you want to play?
- Uh, I'll give
you three guesses.
- Hmm.
Hoobarama.
- Yup.
- Hoobarama.
- Yup.
- And, um, hoobarama.
- Yeah, of course.
Hoobarama is the
hoobygrooviest game I know.
- Yes, Groove, I've guessed that
since you haven't stopped
playing it for days.
- Yeah.
- Where's the hoobarama?
- Um, well, actually,
I don't know,
because I can't see it anywhere.
- Hey other Hoobs!
Have you lost something?
- The hoobarama.
You haven't seen it
anywhere, have you, Iver?
- Oh, no, sorry.
I've been polishing the
Motorettes in the engine.
I'm been trying to
think of a question
for Hoob News.
- Who had it last?
- Um, I did.
Or, actually, did I?
Or didn't I?
I don't remember.
(Groove laughs)
- Where would a soft,
round, flat thing be?
- Oh, I must have
put it somewhere,
but where?
♪ Where, where, where ♪
♪ Where ♪
(tuba plays)
- Well, I could have put it in
my collection of soft things,
or I could have put it in my
collection of round things.
I could have even have
put it in my collection of
- [all together] Flat things.
- Yes.
- Yes, Groove.
Perhaps you should
look for it later.
Time to think of a question now.
- Hey, why don't we
play hoobarama with
something else, hmm?
What about playing
with this orange here.
Here, Tula, you go first.
(Tula giggles)
- [Tula and Groove
together] Hoo...
Baaa....
Rama!
(Groove laughs)
(Tula sighs)
- It's my go, my go.
- No, I'm sorry, everyone.
We haven't got time
to play hoobarama.
- And it doesn't really work
with an orange in any case.
It's not nearly
as hoobilygroobily
as playing with
a real hoobarama.
- Yeah, you're right, Tula.
An orange is round,
but it's not soft.
- No, nor flat.
- Nor flat.
Ah well, never mind.
- We need something
that's like a hoobarama.
- Hey, I wonder, do Peeps have
anything like a hoobarama?
♪ Hubba Hubba, Hubba

- Oh, it's Hubba Hubba.
- Do Peeps have anything

That's a fantabihooby question!
Hoobs all over the universe
will want to know
the answer to that.
- Do you really think
so, Hubba Hubba?
- Oh, absohoobilutely, Iver.
If your answer goes
into my Hoobopaedia,
then other Hoobs will
be able to look it up.
- And it means that we'd be
able to play hoobarama today!
Will you tell Roma that
we're looking for something
that's soft, round, and
flat, please, Hubba Hubba?
- Certainly, Groove.
But first, let's
have a quick look
on Hoobnet to see
if we can find out
what Tiddlypeeps play with.
Mm hmm.
Perhaps we'll find
something like a hoobarama.
Ah, have a look at this.
(futuristic noise)
Oh, I wonder what that is.
Now that Tiddlypeep's
playing with something flat,
but it's not round.
Ah, that's round, but
oh, oh, it's not flat.
No, neither's that.
They're having
lots of fun though.
Mm, I don't really see
anything like a hoobarama.
(futuristic noise)
- Oh, those Tiddlypeeps
were having so much fun!
- Yeah, but we didn't see
anything soft, round, and flat
like a hoobarama,
did we, Hubba Hubba?
- No, Groove, that's true.
But why don't you
start up the Hoobmobile
and go and find some
Tiddlypeeps, eh?
I'm sure they'd be very
pleased to see you.
- I'll go, I'll go!
And then I can ask 'em
if they know of anything
that's like a hoobarama.
- Good thinking, Groove.
- And I'll drive!
Let's wake up those shiny
little Motorettes in the engine!
- Hoo, ba, rama!
No.
It's not the same.

- A hoobarama is
something that we Hoobs
play hoobarama with.
Hoobaramas are, well,
they're, um,
they're round.
And they're sort of flat.

- Hooboodoo, poobs.
Now don't give up,
whatever you do.
I found a hoobledoobleduper
story on Hoobnet
which might give you an idea
for your sponge, Groove!
(all cheer)
- [Narrator] In the
library at night,
all the pages of
the big picture book
would come out to play.
They would slide
under the furniture.
And they would turn
sideways so that no one
would know where they were.
Now the reason why they
could play all these games
was because they were flat.
Their best friend,
Fred, wasn't flat.
Fred was a squooshy
squashy beanbag.
The pages loved to sit on Fred
and read themselves
to one another.
They were happy that
Fred wasn't flat.
But Fred wanted to be flat.
He wanted to play all the games
that the pages could play.
He couldn't slide
under furniture.
In fact, he was furniture.
The pages didn't like
to see Fred unhappy,
so they got together
to work out a plan.
- I know!
- [Narrator] Said one of them.
- Why don't we ask the
big, heavy book cover
to sit on Fred?
He's so heavy,
he's sure to squash him
down and make him flat.
- [Narrator] So that night,
the big, heavy book cover
jumped off the shelf.
- Wee!
- [Narrator] He cried.
And he landed right
on top of Fred.
- Oof.
- [Narrator] And sure
enough, as he sat there,
Fred got flatter and
flatter and flatter.
Fred leapt up and cried.
- I'm flat, I'm flat!
Watch this!
- [Narrator] And he slid
right under a bookcase
and out the other side.
- Now watch this.
- [Narrator] He cried.
And he folded himself up.
The pages all laughed.
(pages giggling)
- We liked you soft
and squishy, Fred.
But you're even more fun
now that you're flat!
- I couldn't agree more.
- [Narrator] Fred said.
- Flat is the way to be.
- [Narrator] Then he
turned himself sideways
and completely disappeared!
(futuristic noise)
- Hey, Groove, if you
sat on the sponge,
maybe you could make it
as flat as a hoobarama.
- Good idea!
No problem.
Let's get a chair.
(Groove groans)
Yeah, it's a heavy chair.
(Tula and Iver giggle)
Ah, here we go.
Sponge.
Eh.
Ooh, yeah.
(all laugh)
Flat sponge, flat sponge.
Flaaaat.
- This is bound to work.
- Flaaaaat.
- Okay, let's have a look.
(sproingy noise)
Oh.
Oh, it's still not flat.
- No.
I shall just sit on it
(sproingy noise)
till it is flat.
Flaaaaat.
- Oh, I do hope
it works, Groove.
- Flaaaaat.

- Hoobledoob poobs.
Today I'm reporting from a place
that Peeps and
Tiddlypeeps come to eat.
It's called a pizza restaurant.
- What's that Peep
doing behind you, Roma?
- Well, Tula, he's making a
yummy, tasty, delicious pizza,
one of the yummiest
things the Peeps eat.
Pizzas are eaten a lot in Italy,
but they're also eaten by
Peeps right across the world.
And I can understand why.
They're bready on the bottom
and soft on the top,
where they have all sorts
of hoobacious toppings,
not to mention hoobloads of
fantabbyhooby melted cheese.
- Oh, cheese.
Hoobygroovy.
- Yes, Groove.
And pizzas are easy
to get hold of.
You can go to a pizza
restaurant like this one
or you can even order one
and get it delivered
to you in a box!
How hoobilygroobily is that?
- [Man] One pepperoni
pizza for Roma Hoob.
- Ah.
Oh, hoobygalooby.
The pizza I ordered.
It's here.
You see, Hoobs?
Pizzas are round and flat,
and they're simply delicious.
Yummy, yummy, yum.
This is Roma Hoob
about to tuck in to
a slice of pizza.
Oh.
Hoobletoodledoo.
- Hey, pizzas are round.
- Yeah, and they're soft.
- They're flat.
- Yeah, and they're covered
in hoobygroovy cheese.
- And I have just
ordered one from Hoobnet.
- Oh!
- [Both] Hoob, hoob, hooray!
- They look just
like a hoobarama.
- Oh, Tula, I can't
wait for it to arrive.
- Why don't you
check your sponge?
That'll take your mind
off the pizza, Groove.
- Good idea.
(sproingy noise)
No, not flat yet.
No, I honestly think the pizza's
gonna be the answer to
our question, I really do.
(guitars twang)
- And here it is!
- Are you ready
to play hoobarama?
- You bet I am.
- Ooh, look.
- Oh!
(Groove chuckles)
- Oh.
Hoobygalooby.
How soft and round
and flat this is.
- Yeah.
And how cheesy.
- Yes, all right.
Sit down, Groove.
Let's play hoobarama!
- Yeah!
- [All Together] Hoo, ba--
- Stop!
Iver, if you do the rama bit,
and splat the pizza down
on your other hooby paw,
you'll be covered in cheese!
- Mmm, cheese.
- You're right, Tula.
Yes, you're absolutely right.
A hoobarama isn't
covered in cheese, is it?
- No.
- Oh, well.
Hey, maybe we should just
eat the pizza instead.
Cause if I eat
hoobloads of pizza,
then I get heavier.
And if I get heavier,
well, I might just
flatten this sponge.
- And if Groove
flattens the sponge,
we can play--

Welcome to Hoob News,
the news show for
Hoobs everywhere.
I'm Iver.
- I'm Tula.
- And I'm a bit full.
- And today we've been
asking the question.
- Do Tiddlypeeps have
anything like a hoobarama?
- [Iver] Some Tiddlypeeps
showed Groove a game they play
with something called
a Frisbee disc.
- What is it?
A Frisbee disc is
flat and round,
but it isn't soft
like a hoobarama.
But I found a soft, round sponge
in my collection of soft things.
- [Iver] And we tried
to make it flat.
- [Groove] By whacking it
with a hooby sandwich hammer.
- [Tula] But that didn't work.
- [Iver] Then Hubba Hubba
found us a hoobacious story.
- [Groove] All about
a beanbag called Fred
who made himself flat by putting
something heavy on himself.
- [Iver] Groove tried sitting
on the sponge to make it flat.
- [Groove] But even I
wasn't heavy enough.
- [Tula] Then Roma told
us all about pizzas,
which are round
and soft and flat.
- [Iver] But pizzas are too
messy to play hoobarama with.
Then some more Tiddlypeeps
showed Tula some pancakes!
And pancakes are
soft, round, and flat.
- [All] Just like hoobaramas.
- And I can't wait
to try one myself.
So it's thanks once again
to Iver, Tula, Groove, and Roma
for giving Hoobs everywhere
a little peep into
the world of Peeps.
And remember wherever you are,
have a hoobilygroobily day
and hoobletoodledoo!
- [All] Hoobletoodledoo!
- Hoobygroovy.
Look, it's my hoobarama.
Must have been here all along.
