Nick Jr. has announced it has picked up a new original half-hour preschool series, Yo Gabba Gabba!  The 20-episode live-action magazine-style series will use music and song to highlight simple life lessons and universal experiences in the lives of preschoolers. The series (which already has a cult following) is scheduled to premiere on Nick Jr. in Fall 2007.

Yo Gabba Gabba! "puts the funk in preschool" and stars Host DJ Lance Rock who brings to life five friendly toy characters in a colorful land full of song and dance.  The magazine-style format of the series is infused with a retro style and beat driven music.  Yo Gabba Gabba! will feature animated segments, real kids and special guests, in addition to a vibrant world of puppet characters who are all ready to sing, play, and dance along with your little hip-hoppers – as soon as they hear the magic words, "Yo Gabba Gabba!"
