to hate this programme so much?

Just to lighten up recent threads.....Mike the Knight has always annoyed me; but the more I watch it the MORE it annoys me (to be clear I am not watching it on my own, or I'd turn it off)

MtK never learns from his mistakes or follows his own slogan. The vikings are just stupid foreigners and the villagers are lumpen idiots and need to be continually bossed about led by a smug incompetent pre-teen knight - in -training, who insists on continually making them applaud his latest self-aggrandising endeavour. I would be trying to make a political point here, if it weren't time for bed and thus I am too knackered to think!

And the other day they were having a sleep over and the queen was still in her gown and crown - production couldn't even be arsed to design some regal jammies.

And the theme tune is sooooo catchy. Arrgh. There are programs that I dislike but my hatred for this one just seems to grow and grow. I know IABU to bother hating a program, but does it irk anybody else?

I don;t mind Timmy time - but I did see one where he basically stole from one of the other characters which made me a bit Confused. I didn't see the end though, so can't give a full comment!

I guarantee the little fecker got away with it Angry

gallifrey · 16/10/2012 00:04

Yeah it is quite annoying isn't it, and why does he have such a massive head in comparison to his body?
Used to like Timmy but he is such a brat and ruins everything for everyone else.

The worst thing on cbeebies is the bloody lingo show, could he be any more annoying? Why does he have to be so terribly well spoken? And that bloody song.... grrr!!!

It's because he is a big headed little twerp.THeer must be a wrod for how your appearance reflects your attitude?
I haven't seen the lingo show - maybe I'll look it up if I run out of other petty dislikes (prety unlikely).

yeah that does make sense!!

Big headed little twerp, I'll laugh tomorrow when I see it !!

glenthebattleostrich · 16/10/2012 08:47

He should be made to go live on an island with Peppa Pig, Ben and Holly and Nanny sodding Plum who is without a doubt the worst Nanny in the world and should have been fired years ago

CarpeJugulum · 16/10/2012 08:50

It's the same with Postman Pat - if he just did what he was paid for, there would be no issues...

And don't get me started on Bob the Builder... Angry

Abbicob · 16/10/2012 08:54

Thomas The Tank engine is the worst - he is always causing confusion and delay ......... argh

elvisola · 16/10/2012 08:58

Mine are addicted to the new show Get Well Soon and they have full on fights as to who gets to sing the (annoying) theme song over and over and over and over ..,..................

LittleBlackDress · 16/10/2012 09:00

Grandpa in my Pocket - drives me insane!!

schnauzerfan · 16/10/2012 09:01

Finally a Mike the Knight hatred thread. I'm in!! Hate the little annoying, spoilt, arrogant, condescending big headed fecker.

FeckOffCup · 16/10/2012 09:13

Also Raa Raa the noisy lion, I hate him and his nasal voice and buck teeth and the way he shakes his head about all the time.

Kalisi · 16/10/2012 09:27

Haha @ Big headed little twerp! Grin Yes Get Well Soon is also annoying. What's with his eyebrows and whiter than white teeth!?

WelshMaenad · 16/10/2012 09:28

I tried to put my 2.6 yr old in the wrong car seat last week and he told me "mummy you done confusion and delay!".

MrsWembley · 16/10/2012 09:30

Oh my god, every time someone gets applauded for solving a problem that they created in the first place, I find myself screaming at the television, 'It's bloody Postman Pat all over again!'Angry

Mike, however, wants a bloody good talking to about the wonders of humility.Hmm

Strawhatpirate · 16/10/2012 09:33

With any luck Mike will wind up dying in the crusades next series.

RawShark · 16/10/2012 19:36

Haha - I KNEW i wasn't being unreasonable!

Grin at Welsh Maenad and Strawhatpirate

CAn't believe Pat's got a helicopter. And a wife and child. And Mrs Googins appears to have a thing for him (she stroked his tie very coquettishly the other day). How things have changed......

Mike is annoying - but I fucking loathe with a passion I did not know I posessed grandpa in my bastard pocket. All of the cast are shocking!!!! And don't get me started on baby jake.....

IvorHughJackolantern · 16/10/2012 20:39

That fucking tree-fu programme is the one that gets me angry. That stupid faux accent the Butterfly has makes my teeth itch and the weird mushroom things look like they have pink eye. Makes me shudder!

IvorHughJackolantern · 16/10/2012 20:40

steben - My DDad was over recently and Baby Jake came on. He turned to me with a look of horror and said 'What's wrong with your television?'

PseudoBadger · 16/10/2012 20:43

I see all these - and raise you Everything's Rosie

IvorHughJackolantern · 16/10/2012 20:45

Driver Dan really pisses me off too. I hate his voice and the way he's all like, 'And you? Are you sitting down comfortably and ready to listen?' Fuck off Dan. Just fuck off. You're like a bad teacher who assumes all the kids are gonna piss about before you've given them a chance. YES I'M FUCKING SITTING DOWN. And also all of the stories and illustrations are bloody shite.
