Lets put the worst kids shows on this list

Cocomelon. Fuuuuuccckk, my brain's melting. However, I introduced DGS to Mike Armstrong's American steam trains, and he loves them. Also unboxing and setup of Brio trainsets. Odd child.

Actually yes. Everyone complaining about CBeebies etc has the joy of the shite they pick to watch on YouTube still to come.

Minecraft is boring even when you play it yourself. Why would you want to watch someone else do it?

DickAmbush · 06/02/2020 16:56

I DETEST Alvin & The Cunting Chipmunks. The newer one is every kind of horrible, and don't get me started on their owner Creepy Dave, who clearly has ishoos.

Show Me Show Me: Pui Fan Lee's 'singing' voice is a horror show.

Horrid Henry: Vile little shit.

I'm sure there are many, many more, but I'm already having flashbacks!

I hate Peppa Pig with a passion. I go to a rhyme time session at the local library most weeks and the women running it chose a Peppa Pig book then asked if we all like Peppa pig. I was honest and said no, the other parents looked at me like I was filth Grin. I can’t stand it.

What? You mean you haven't cultivated 347 different 'interested' faces yet? You're slacking Grin.

Old: Caillou. Whinging little shit makes Bing look pleasant.

Current: WTF is Baby Jake on, and can I have some please. Also, that little stupid dinosaur Topsy that randomly pops up on CBeebies can do one. And Little Roy? WHY DOES SHE HAVE A CARTOON SIBLING?

ItsAllTheDramaMickIJustLoveIt · 06/02/2020 17:23

Me too! Granny Murray haunted my dreams for ages
Sofia the first- voice goes right through me and it’s so cheesy
Baby Jake- ugh
Peppa sodding pig- odious little pork scratching

Danascully2 · 06/02/2020 17:29

Yes to topsy and Tim.
Mum: put your shoes on now darlings, it's time to go
T and T: yes Mummy, of course Mummy, right away Mummy.
Has the writer actually met any 5 year olds??
The books are ok though, they have tantrums and make a mess, someone decided to sanitise it for the TV.
I can't stand bing after the traumatic experience of going to one of those 'first cinema' events which was six or seven episodes of bing in a row.

Danascully2 · 06/02/2020 17:30

I do quite like Justin's house though
hides

SallyWD · 06/02/2020 17:31

I dislike most of the things my kids watch on Pop. They all give me a headache - Alvin and a chipmunks and the dreadful songs, Power Rangers, that Miraculous Ladybug show. All just too loud.

okiedokieme · 06/02/2020 17:38

Peppa pig, wasn't on when my kids were tiny but it is so annoying - why do parents on buses think it's ok to let their kids watch it without headphones!! Nationwide express driver (there were two on board so the one not driving) luckily intervened before I had to go and moan, so annoying

twirlypoos · 06/02/2020 17:46

Jigsaw with mr Noseybonk

Worst kids shows
tinatsarina · 06/02/2020 18:59

castlesfromtherubble · 06/02/2020 18:59

Bing. Utter cunt.

iklboo · 06/02/2020 19:03

@tinatsarina - That's Noseybonk. A character in a KID'S tv show

iklboo · 06/02/2020 19:04

Hollylolly28 · 06/02/2020 19:09

Has no one else had the joy of Simon in netflix? Makes me miss peppa

TonOfLead · 06/02/2020 19:15

Baby Jake
Kate and MimMim

The DC weren't allowed to watch them if I was in the same room. It has been years now, but they still threaten to put it on if I annoy them although it is an empty threat as I can cut the power to the TV if needed.

Howgreenwasmyvalley · 06/02/2020 19:17

Mr Ben
Bagpuss
Mary, Mungo and Midge

Goldwispa · 06/02/2020 19:17

Numberjacks. It scared my children.

Howgreenwasmyvalley · 06/02/2020 19:18

Just remembered Hartley Hare.

Howgreenwasmyvalley · 06/02/2020 19:20

Sorry I misunderstood, thought it was your favourite children's programme. Blush

Whohasnickedmyvodka · 06/02/2020 19:23

Omg bloody paw patrol at the moment we are all paw patrol members I'm bloody sky and the 4 year old dictator is ryder

JillAmanda · 06/02/2020 19:27

I love Peppa Pig! I don’t get the hate at all. There’s so much to love. It’s hilarious!

Peppa hanging up on Susie Sheep when she finds out Susie can whistle.

Daddy Pig explaining how mirrors work.

Tiddles the Tortoise and various other animals getting stuck in trees (“cows are not very good at climbing trees”)

Madame Gazelle’s nervous tic triggered by the mention of glitter.

I love it 😂
