To loathe doc mcstuffins and her saccharin clan of stuffed animals

I am irrationally enraged by that annoying little lamb that skips around asking 'do you want a cuddle?' No! Fuck off lamb!

Also basically doc mcstuffins is imagining the toys are alive so every time one of them says 'wow doc, you're the best toy doctor there is!' she's basically saying that to herself, which seems very conceited.

I hope ds grows out of his love of it soon. I don't think I can take much more of it,

Hmmm cant say I have ever heard of this prog. Thankfully Grin

My DD loves it too, I am not too bothered by it.
DD wants to be a doctor when she grows up, but "for humans, not toys"

It is very Disney though

Who the heck is Doc McStuffin?

Is this one of those times I'm glad my kids have outgrown Cbeebies? Although I've now transferred my hatred to everything on Disney channel

She's a twat, and the way her insipid family indulge her...

Stillhopingstillhere · 26/06/2013 12:41

I will grant that the songs are catchy. Which makes it even more annoying.

Why hasn't doc got any proper friends. Who know, that aren't toys?

just googled doc mcStuffin as I'd never heard of it either.

I think it's safe to say that they weren't targeting an audience of little boys when they designed this character.

Stillhopingstillhere · 26/06/2013 12:42

No. But ds wants to BE her. Should I be concerned. Confused

My boys quite like this. I often find myself singing the songs to ds3 who is 6 weeks! Need to get out more!

cheeseandbiscuitsplease · 26/06/2013 21:21

Aaah she's cute! We love her in our house.

StitchAteMySleep · 26/06/2013 21:37

Highly annoying, but I tolerate her as a positive black character in a tv show. It is good for my mixed race dd to be able to identify with a lead character in a children's tv program. Her mum is a real doctor in it too, so another good female role model.

QuietNinjaTardis · 26/06/2013 21:39

Ds loves doc mcstuffins. We have a cuddly chilly in this house. And I find myself singing the songs oh dear god I've finally lost it

MyChemicalMummy · 26/06/2013 21:40

My 5 year old ds loves it! He also loves sophia the first!

thereinmadnesslies · 26/06/2013 21:58

DS loves it. It's a pity that all the related merchandise like drs kits are all pink / purple and aimed at girls

StickyProblem · 26/06/2013 22:08

Never seen it but am crying at "no! Fuck off lamb!" :)

SixFeetUnder · 26/06/2013 22:11

My DS bought Lambie with his birthday money. Did not want Stuffy or Chilly - he wanted the ballet dancing lamb wearing the pink tutu :)

He luffs her :)

Another entry for the BIG BOOK OF BOO-BOO'S!

That cow/hippo/whatever (the receptionist) makes me lol.

HorryIsUpduffed · 26/06/2013 22:15

YANBU. What a fucking brat she is.

WhispersOfWickedness · 26/06/2013 22:16

My DS loves her too Grin At least, he did, but seems to have transferred his affections to Cinderella now Hmm
He had a doc mcstuffins cake for his third birthday Grin
I think there are definitely worse programmes out there, she is a good role model Smile

PoppyWearer · 26/06/2013 22:18

YANBU. My DC1 insists on fecking Disney when she gets home from school.Angry

Give me Dr Ranj and his poo fetish any day.

xigris · 26/06/2013 22:19

It is fucking awful and I want to claw my eyes out every time it's on. The name itself is enough to induce the rage. Saccharine shite Angry

Sleep404 · 26/06/2013 22:20

It's rubbish. If you want quality, return to cbeebies immediately and check out Get Well Soon. I stumbled across this gem when trying to find something to keep 6 mth ds entertained while I made a cup of tea. Now I can't get the jingle,"wipe front to back, then flush, then wash", out of my head.

HorryIsUpduffed · 26/06/2013 22:23

Sofia the First can FTFO as well.

Yonididnaedaethat · 26/06/2013 22:29

Aw I quite like Doc, Handy Manny tho is such a wee know it all Angry

ariane5 · 26/06/2013 22:29

Dd2 LOVES doc mcstuffins and watches it a lot. She also loves get well soon (but only if petal is in it).
