[edit] Plot and Storyline
The show is about a trio of babies who fight off evil monsters and aliens. Their names are Meg, Derrick and Buck and their care-giver's name is Nurse Lazlo. The show takes place in Your City, USA.
Meg is cranky and stuck-up about everyone's behavior, Bucky is shy (also the youngest of the trio), a bit slower in the head than the rest, Derrick is standoffish (with a tendency to argue with Meg) and a bit of a showoff, and all of them love strudel and Nurse Lazlo.
After their birth, they are brought to an orphanage. When the entire solar system aligned itself, the babies and their nurse were struck by lightning. The babies were given super strength and other, decidedly more disgusting powers, and Nurse Lazlo's IQ flew off the charts.
The show uses a lot of toilet humor based on snot, vomit, flatulence, drool, and various other bodily fluids coming from the cast. This has become the basis of the show, as the babies often use this, combined with their own amazing strength, to save the city.
