Did you get a signal yet? I need to see what happens next on As the Kitchen Sinks!

You either love Goob Toob, or you hate Goob Toob. If you hate him, then that's because you think he's going to kill your brain cells. However, his screen has been stuck on the same "program" for a long time. That "program" happens to be a show about four blocks of color that don't do anything and is called "Technical Difficulties".

Notes

• His name comes from the term "boob tube", a U.S. slang term for a television.
• Goob Toob's not the first Transformer to have an antenna-topped television as his alternate mode. That honor goes to Gogglebox, who shares Goob Toob's four-color test screen pattern. However, Goob Toob's the first one to get a toy.
