To like Peppa Pig?

I started watching it - ahem - with my DD but she only likes the theme tune then gets bored. Yet I find myself still watching it, and not only that but laughing at it too.

I loved pepper pig, and so did DH. Sadly, dd thinks she is too old for it now. :(

YANBU. My 5yo has grown out of it and I miss my PP fix.Sad

Jinsei · 11/02/2013 17:29

Damn iPhone. Peppa not pepper!

I used to watch it with dniece a few years ago. Can't wait for ds to start getting into it. Maybe I should start watching it for ahem, research purposes!

I miss George and Daddy Pig now that my dc are too old Sad

Glad it's not just me. Big grin smiley (I can't figure out how to do them).

No.You don't like it. If your daughter was not there you wouldn't necessarily choose to watch it would you?

You wouldn't list it as one of the things you like.
You just tolerate it and you're just curious how it ends just because you've watched the start.
So really, you hate Peppa pig. I know you do. Trust me.

YANBU. I have the tune as my ring tone.

RobinSparkles · 11/02/2013 17:33

YANBU. I love Peppa Pig, I will be upset when DD2 grows out of it. DD1 has decided that she's too old for it (5) but watches it on the sly when DD2 has it on!

Do you like Ben and Holly as well, OP?

Dryjuice25 · 11/02/2013 17:35

Just joking OP. My dd likes it too. and so I occasionally

I'm not as keen on Ben and Holly, but it's growing on me. My DD did watch it the other day mind I think it's only because she had a cold and sat still long enough for once.

I love watching Peppa with my pig. I don't have to watch every day however.

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 11/02/2013 17:37

Er, I love watching Peppa with my nephew Blush, even.

Jinsei · 11/02/2013 17:39

I like the programme but hate Peppa. She's such a precocious little brat!

Am I going to get massive flaming now??

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 11/02/2013 17:44

I like the music. It particularly amuses me and my sister to sing it in German. "Pfefferschwein - snort snort - Pfefferschwein - snort..." etc

YANBU, although I'm more a Ben and Holly's Little Kingdom fan... Grin

Fave episode: George ice skating

Ben and Holly is funnier. The one in space is a rip of Apollo 13-the WOE even has a Gene Krantz wastcoat!

NoTeaForMe · 11/02/2013 18:03

I don't hate the program but I hate Peppa, she's a spoilt brat, horrible to her brother, really precocious and rude. She's never told off. My daughter, 2, loves it, but I can't wait for her to grow out of it!

NoTeaForMe · 11/02/2013 18:03

KD0706 I see there's one other person here that feels the same! Phew!
