   	Huh; I don't think I've seen them before, but I admit I don't   
   watch the show completely regularly.   
      
   	I suppose I should point out I don't actually think anyone is   
   specifically ripping off anyone else with the bit, since the premise   
   follows pretty quickly once you've seen 'Children Say The Darndest   
   Things'.
