To think the Twirly Woo's are hoodlums

I mean they break into peoples homes, pop their bubble wrap or wrap the house in wrapping paper or move peoples belongings or let the dog on and out.

I imagine they account for half of suspected hauntings

Peek A Boo seems to be some poor Cinderella / illegal immigrant clearly scared of them.

Bing gets a lot of abuse but the TW's are the most terrible and banned of words - NAUGHTY!!! The fact their parents are with them too...

You wouldn't want to sit next to them in a restaurant or bus - imagine the MN posts!!!

So Aibu to think they're the naughtiest of all the shows?

DS is mercifully too old for this shit now, but I remember not that long ago being horrified by All At Sea and muttering that if I had a kid like that I would have smothered it by now...

Did anyone see this morning’s Hey Dugee? That stick song is not annoying at all Hmm

I watched the Stick song. What the actual FUCK?

OliviaTheFox · 07/12/2017 15:54

Pando does my head in. But pepper bloody pig really winds me up and I tell DD mummy hates The Pig.

When the Twirly Woos kept putting leaves through the letter box; so annoying.

RiceButt · 07/12/2017 16:10

I love the twirlywoos Blush. I remember being drunk in a 24 hr Asda signing the theme tune as loud as I could. Tbf it was my first night out since baby was born.

This mornings Hey Dugee was a but trippy and rave-like. I quite liked It, very catchy.

BelfastSmile · 07/12/2017 16:37

The leaves through the letterbox episode! DS LOVED that one! I must have watched it 50 times!

CaveMum · 07/12/2017 20:44

Hey Dugee is frequently voted (by adults) as the best show on CBeebies!

SleepingStandingUp · 07/12/2017 21:55

Little furry ASBO knobheads
Nooooooo. No bunny hate. My son finally started signing rabbit when it comes on although its still more me watching than him

I love Roly! And Bing. Not Sula though. Condescending cow.
I like the Twirlywoos but they are very naughty.. Peter Rabbit is a proper vandal. And annoying.

TenForward82 · 07/12/2017 22:07

Bing is a whingy twat. Twirlywoos are nobs. But I won't hear a bad word against Roly.

I’m crying tears of mirth. Not only are you correct but for the fact you used the word “hoodlums”!!!!!

You’ve made my week!

glueandstick · 07/12/2017 22:51

Bing needs some proper parenting and told to stop fucking whining.

Peter rabbit needs to be eaten. The little shit. Lily is a sanctimonious, precocious twerp. Benjamin needs to grow a pair. Squirrel Nutkin, fucking hell- that squirrel needs eliminating.

Can’t find a bad word about hey duggee. Love that show.

Loved Mr Tumble too, but having seen an awful lot of him I’m now not so sure. Makes my blood run a little cold. Has taught kiddo to sign so can’t hold too much against him.

Mummatron3000 · 07/12/2017 22:55

The hey duggee stick song is amazing! Me & my 2DCs were throwing some serious shapes around the kitchen when watching it!
Stick stick stick stick sticky sticky stick stick

My traitor son likes Yakka Dee. I'm passed they can't shove a makaton sign into each episode.

One of my 3 year old nephews was obsessed with TwirlyWoos - I couldn't help but sing along with the theme tune, even though I think there are serious boundary issues with them. They've fallen out of favour mostly now, although he watches if they happen to be on I suppose.

He still has somewhat of a soft spot for Bing - or, "that bastard bunny" as I like to refer to him - but it's mostly limited to a soft toy and the occasional story, which I can just about cope with.

What he is now completely in love with is Paw Patrol, which in the grand scheme of kids crap TV doesn't seem too bad (once you put aside the whole anthropomorphised dogs and a chicken as vice-mayor thing) - I know all of the characters and the theme tune. I've seen worse, that's all I keep saying.

Like TellyTubbies I bloody hated that programme - I actually wrote an assignment at University about the effects of that programme on child language development!

Orangebird69 · 08/12/2017 00:34

Lol. This is hilarious 😂😂😂.

I quite like Digby Dragon 😳

SleepingStandingUp · 08/12/2017 00:39

Oh I loooooove Digby. That fairy is so me

Any small potato fans? Used to work better than morphine when DS was in hospital. Could literally stop a tantrum in its tracks. I occasionally find myself singing "what would you do on a farm" to myself

DD went through a small potatoes phase a while ago. Bizarre but catchy!

And can't believe no ones mentioned Pando when discussing Bing. Can't stand Pando!

FrizzyNoodles · 08/12/2017 07:32

I hate pando. If you watch the episodes when they're outside you sometimes see a panda that had a lucky escape from being his carer.
I think Kobi and Zainab from Apple Tree House are having an affair.
The humans in Twirlywoos always take it really well.

Santasbigredbobblehat · 08/12/2017 07:48

Bing is too much; too whiny. My children don’t care for him.
Agree Peter Rabbit should be eaten.

Small potatoes is charming.
Our current favourites are:
Duggee
Pablo
Sarah and Duck.

Laiste · 08/12/2017 07:49

I started out disliking Pando, but now i think he's fine. Not phased by anything much just gets on with life - doesn't bloody whinge and whine at everything like blasted Bing.

Flops the problem. Are you ok Bing? Are you ok? Are you sure you're ok? Arrrrgggghh.

The Christian rock Pedo Rabbit song gets right on my wick. It doesn't fit with the cartoon at all.
