Peppa Pig. Can’t stand it

CigarsofthePharoahs · 14/05/2019 08:11

All of them!!!!
Bing in particular. Being a whiny brat is a Bing Thing.
PJ Masks. I misheard the first time ds2 watched it and thought one of the characters was called towelette.

It only gets worse now. Ds1 is 8 and obsessed with DanTDM. Help me.

fblake · 14/05/2019 08:21

Towelette is a far better name 😂

Anything with Justin fletcher in it. God knows what he's got over the bbc, but it must be something bloody good or why else would they be giving him so many shows.

Otterses · 14/05/2019 08:27

Bing. I hate every single one of them, down to their annoying personalities and the plot holes infuriate me. Like how does Padget have time to run a shop full time and look after that little turd of a panda with no trousers? And why does Flop stay at the crèche with Bing? Has no one explained to him the point of the crèche is to have a break from your child?

SockQueen · 14/05/2019 08:28

Bing. Whiny little fucker.

I'd been warned by friends how annoying he was so deliberately avoided it for DS (still doing this for Peppa and Paw Patrol) bit that little bunny bastard has somehow snuck into the repertoire.

Otterses · 14/05/2019 08:29

Actually I also can't stand Mr Sodding Tumble, and that CBeebies presenter with the floofy hair who has his own show about safari adventures. The one where he looks like he's tiny, like he's on the magic school bus or something Angry

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 14/05/2019 08:30

Twirly woos- reminds me of pingu-
Annoying things that don’t speak!

sar302 · 14/05/2019 08:31

It's not a programme particularly, but I find the CBeebies presenters irritatingly happy. I totally get why a load of them were on coke in the 90s!

RobinsEggBlue · 14/05/2019 08:32

Postman Pat. Total incompetence- mission accomplished!

Justtickingboxes · 14/05/2019 13:55

Mr Tumble!!! He's so artificial and gives me bad vibes! He switches his smiles on and off so abruptly

TessieVanKendre · 14/05/2019 14:01

Fireman Sam!! I absolutely cannot fucking stand that bloody Norman!!! Bloody idiot he is!!! I then get really angry and emotionally involved and my kids just look at me like I'm crazy. Like the time he took that submarine without asking, and it started leaking, I was just like, let him fucking drown, serves himself right! He's always bloody sorry, but then makes a huge fuck up in the next episode, so he isn't really bloody sorry, is he??!! Angry

Pinkyponkcustard · 14/05/2019 14:03

Ra Ra the noisy little lion - not only does it contain Lorraine “pinched a living” Kelly but it’s too loud and on first thing in the morning

tardyheart · 14/05/2019 14:09

Fireman Sam irritates me.

Sam is not the station commander, but all of the others defer to him, then he is always thanked but does not acknowledge the rest of his team, who also risk life and limb.

Norman's behaviour is never fully condemned, and Pontypandy is such a small town, how is there so many terrible incidents. Bella's cafe should be shut down with so many incidents. How has Elvis still got a job and why don't the Police or Ambulance service ever arrive on scene.

Postman Pat is second to this in incompetence. We have to switch Curious George off, the Yellow hat man creeps me out.

LOVE this comment!

Baby Jack always freaks me out, too weird!

Faster · 14/05/2019 14:13

Bing - whiny little fuck face
Andy the dinosaur adventure guy has really strange colouring, his face is all one shade.

SleepingStandingUp · 14/05/2019 14:16

CBeebies presenter with the floofy hair who has his own show about safari adventures you can't diss Andy!!!!

Topsy and Tom for obvious reasons.

Chunkyetfunky · 14/05/2019 14:17

Fucking hate hey Duggee 🙄and his poxy badges!! Dd2 loves it

DulcieRay · 14/05/2019 14:25

Omg yes bing bunny is a whiny little shit
Peppa pig is an entitled madam, too

I didn't used to mind them but I think I've had way too much

SlimGin · 14/05/2019 14:30

Aw I love Twirlywoos, it has such a good theme tune!
I hate Bing, too. I also find In The Night Garden waaay too long. Would be good if it was 10/15 minutes.

fblake · 14/05/2019 14:47

I think Bing's the front runner so far 😂

Waffle the Sodding Wonderdog. That family give dog owners a bad name - and that dog seriously needs some training classes!

Faster · 14/05/2019 14:57

Oh fuck I forgot about waffle the dog. The house make my eyes hurt.
Topsy and Tim can fuck off too.

TeenTimesTwo · 14/05/2019 14:58

Mine are for older kids, all dire:

Alvin & the Chipmunks.

And something even more dire called NYFC for something, cartoon American girls at a fashion college.

Littlest pet shop.

puma84 · 14/05/2019 15:00

Peppy pig
Ben and Hollie
I fucking hate nanny plum with a passion!
