Bathing suits are filling the racks at Bendel’s.

And your fat ass is still cuddling the brushed cotton on your Crate & Barrel couch.

Whatever to do? It’s twenty-two days to Tortola!

Press PLAY, dammit, because PBS Video has just come out with the most innovative, colorful, and?quite frankly?frightening exercise video since Susan Powter’s ?Stop the Insanity.?

Teletubbies.

Yup, those fat little alien-looking freaks are at it again, and this time they’re feeling the burn. Dance! Stretch! Jump! Side to side! You too can burn calories (and frighten your neighbors) with the labors of Laa-Laa, Dipsy, Tinky Winky, and Po in this 70-minute interactive video.

And, as we discovered one rainy night, the video doubles as a cat toy. Our frisky feline was stopped in his tracks at the sight of twirling tubsters filling the television screen.

Who says PBS is all talk and no action?
