Dancing Baby Technology Has Barely Improved In The Last 13 Years

People often assume that YouTube videos of people hurting themselves or cute animals being cute or dancing children are the lowest form of entertainment, but they're wrong. The lowest form of entertainment is the poorly CGI-d baby doing something babies don't usually do, like talk or dance. The original horribly fake looking yet strangely popular dancing baby appeared in 1996, and even though YouTube has offered up MANY recent examples of ACTUAL DANCING by REAL TODDLERS whose parents would no doubt jump at the chance to use ad money to finance their talented tots' education at one of those schools like the one in Fame, companies like Evian are still hiring animators to make things like this.

Evian is still "naive" backwards. Next time, HIRE HENRY. (Via AdRants.)
