aibu- to hate the new nick jnr peppa channel

[scrummummy]

I have 2 dd 1 is 7 likes gravity falls, dd 2 nearly 5 likes peppa pig. what level of hell is nick Jr peppa channel !!??!!

Does it really play PP on a loop

that's why they have remote controls and off switches these TV's

Is it an actual channel?

I thought it was a special October thing. The channels do that sometimes, esp. the American-based ones.

And when the fuck did Disney Jnr introduce adverts, the bastards?

It is a Godsend in this house, it's like an instant calm down off switch for a screaming 8mo & can be switched off again after 4mins! I know this makes me a terrible Mummy but any port in a storm!

Shit, I'm going to have nightmares now (Peppa Pig is terrifying, its the way that their faces all swap 'sides' constantly)

Only for October, sadly :( ds loves Peppa (only thing he will watch) and it is so handy having Peppa there any time you need her

Well, check me one time!

I thought it was only for October without even seeing it.

I miss Nick Jr and CBeebies. We seem to have Cartoon Network on a sodding loop lately. And I do find Adventure Time and Gumball very amusing but I miss the gentler, weenier stuff too.

Sigh...

Yes just for October. And I'm with Middle in that it is a godsend...my son is going through the obligatory loving-Peppa stage, so it's great!!!

Agree heartbroken mum

I can stomach Regular Show & phineas & ferb but no more ben 10 please!

yep, october only - I wonder if they'll do Ben and Holly November. my two have gone off that a bit and I'm actually a bit miffed I'm missing out on the new series - have the wise old elf and nanny plum got it on yet? Pajanimals is the new favourite in our house

YABVU. We have 5 minutes of Peppa before we go anywhere now, it gives me time to pack bags and get ready while 2 & 3 yr old are happily entertained.

Although DH and I had a non ironic conversation about our favourite bits yesterday (mine is where Mr Bull says "you can't build a house in a day... it'll be ready tomorrow" and his is where Daddy Pig says "my house is made of bricks so don't even think about it" to Daddy Wolf).

Actually on second thoughts you might be right.

Fresh hell ends in November?? Thank god!!

Love when peppa hangs up on suzy sheep because she can whistle, though.

My fave bit is when Mummy Pig narrows her eyes at the sexist pigs (haha - irony) at the funfair, and also at the dog who mocks her husband!!

I also love Grandpa Pig as he reminds me of my Dad.

Disney jnr has always had ads, its a commercial channel.

You could, I dunno, turn off the Peppa pig channel?

ha ha FastWindow
DC 3 made me teach her how to whistle this afternoon :)

happy days!

I love Phineas and Ferb.

Small dd watches peppa after school for a couple of episodes,she hasn't copped that its a whole peppa channel yet cause I turn it off mean mummy

I saw that the other day Splitheadgirl, I love the bits of Peppa that are clearly just for grownups.

I loved it today. I had an overtired, teething 10 month old with a cough who calmed instantly when I put Peppa on.

Monster you are SO not a terrible mother!! You found out what calmed your child and put it on for her/him...to me, that is being a pretty brilliant mummy!!

YANBU. Fucking sick of it. Have been lying to DD that it isn't on today.

I don't mind it, it's an extra channel isn't it so it's easy to just switch to something else.

My boys love Sophia the first best of all.

DINOSAUR!

My 4 yr old dt's live phineas and ferb and dinosaur train and tmnt ans hate peppa it's for babies :)

I am rather partial to a bit of pokemon myself :)

A whole channel devoted to Peppa .

I miss cartoons that don't shout at you. I'm looking at you gumball and your annoying shrieking.

I'm loving the turtles though, but have to say the early 90s ones were better.

I don't mind peppa, my 2 year old worships her. Pajanimals does my head in though, that duck is an annoying little twat.
