Imagine you're some guy who got a new computer on Christmas of 1999. You boot it up (it takes a while due to the Internets being dial-up) and decide to go to one of those websites they recommended. One of them is UGO.com who now has a brand-new Mondo Mini Show. And it turns out to be a colorful children's show about a gang of cute animals spinning in a merry-go-round. That is until the purple beaver flies into a tree and breaks his back.

Happy 24th birthday to the cutest, cuddliest, and unluckiest creatures of Internet culture.
