Grrrrrrrrr it makes me want to scream!

So sanctimonious. The irritating singing. The indoctrinating theme tune about "different being good" and further still, "if you're all the same you'll be ashamed!!!"

Arggghhhh.

But DD loves it ...

yes YABU. We love 3rd and Bird.

I can't bear the Tweenies and the Zingzillas. Why do they put them on immediately after each other in the mornings? It's basically the same programme.

YABU. DS2 loves it.

DS1 refuses to allow Tweenies to be on, though. He turns the TV over before it starts. Same for Baby Jake (I'm inclined to agree - can't that kid stop bloody shouting?!)

My three love third & bird, and I don't mind it - 64 Zoo Lane does my head in. As soon as the theme tune starts my 4 yo pipes up "you really hate this, don't you Mummy?!" Yes I do.....

I can't handle 3rd and bird. It actually makes me angry.
I have lovebirds and have bred them in teh past, and Mrs Lovebird, Samuel and Muffin are all peachfaced lovebirds.
Mr Lovebird is a FIscher Lovebird.

Peachfaced and Fischer birds cannot mate, well, they can but there will be no eggs...

This is a childrens programme and it is wilfully encouraging adulteryAngry

AND juvenile lovebirds always have a black patch on the top of their beaks until they are about a year old. So Muffin and Samuel must be over a year old and NOT BABIES.

Plus it's fecking annoying.
Don't start me on the Tweenies. Even DD2 says 'oh no, no, no, turn it OFF'

Bestiality, surely, Ilythia?! [blush[

Blush

Too tired even to blush properly!

Please don't mention the Tweenies; it gets my blood pressure up.

3rd and Bird is ok but not a patch on the Wonderpets. I love the Wonderpets.

I love it Grin. It's almost worth the license fee on its own.

Muffin feeling sad, Muffin been bad, Muffin never take things again.

L8rAllig8r · 26/08/2011 23:08

YANBU.

I would gladly murder Muffin. We only watch Disney Junior now but now the Winnie the cunting Pooh is coming back on we may have to rethink.
