Children's TV characters you just can't stand

[ragmayo]

As a parent subjected to the joys of cbbc and beyond, I now have a deepset hate of Mr Tumble, Barney (don't get me started!!), Sophia the first and Doc McStuffins and her long running battle with Munchausen by proxy, to name but a few.
What children's tv characters really put your teeth on edge?

Paddypants13 just had a look ...I agree with your dh. The bing mouth upside down vulva thing is a lot like how the everythings rosie theme tune cant be unheard...this cant be unseen. I also think the pigs snouts in profile off peppa pig look like cocks. It was only when dh made a pp cake and only half of it was left I noticed

Poor blind melody. I have no idea why but i hate her with a passion!

I hate Melody too! Poor kid. She’s just annoyingly optimistic and I feel her mum is one of those ‘my kid loves classical music’ types.

Lola from Charlie and Lola. How come noone has mentioned her. The last one i saw she opened her friends bday present. She is truly a brat. I imagine her parents oooing and ahhing and everyone bitching about the little brat after they leave.

I love the gojetters- theme and grandmaster glitch.

My dc are obviously older than all of yours, I suffered years of Tracy Beaker. Horrid child running rings round the "hilariously" hapless adults trying to look after her.

Don't mind charlie and lola in this house but ... where are the adults?!

I mean the show seems to strive to deal with simple real life issues for youngsters - friendship struggles, irrational fears, food fads, even death (pet mouse) - and the poor brother's there supporting his younger sister as best he can on his own! There's just vague occasional references to mum ... is she lying in a shit pit of a bedroom high on crack? Off shagging the neighbor?

Lola is a sociopath in the making. Poor Charlie's going to end up downtrodden and abused as he spends the rest of his days trying to bail her out.

The Mayor from Paw Patrol and her bloody obsession with that stupid chicken can sod off as well.

Charlie and Lola - they are both so ugly, and I can’t stand Charlie’s voice.

Nanny Plum from Ben and Holly’s Kingdom - she has the most annoying voice I think I’ve ever heard. It makes me want to kick the tv in.

Mr Tumble - looks like he should be on a sex offenders register.

Bing.
Teletubbies.

Abney and Teal- is no one else concerned that there's a child living alone on an island in the park?

The poc pics and their wooden clanging. And Neep! I'll make him neep when I boot him and his family sky high.

Also no one likes porridge that much.

Oh and postman pat. The most incompetent postie, ever. Even Yodel gets a bigger star rating than him. He's always losing parcels or breaking stuff. And he only has one bloody parcel to deliver each day, with a van and a helicopter at his disposal. I mean, really? There's no way that they are running a profitable business.

And the cat could do a better job of it.

Aw i love postman pat but agree that he is a walking disaster, he always cocks up every delivery .
And no wonder a first class stamp costs a small fortune when he has his a post office helicopter at his disposal for awkward deliveries and a fleet of vehicles for everything else !

He has a jet now as well doesn't he?

And when we see the aerial shot of the village at the start you can see it's bloody tiny! And they have that massive sorting warehouse.

Oh yes forgot the jet !

I think the postman pat people are trying to outdo fireman sam. But i'm sorry, the postal service is not the 4th emergency service

And surely postman pat would be retired by now !
And julian would have kids of his own long since.
And dear old jess would be long dead ( gulp )

And another thing , why does he always wear his uniform even when not at work and do julian and sarah etc only possess the one set of clothes ? Though i may be overthinking it now !

Ah, you're bringing back (terrible) memories, my dc are a bit older now so we have left cbeebies et al behind!

Agree with most of these. There was also a sanctimonious programme about a badger, Frances, that I hated. And bloody Barnaby bear!

I used to wonder why Norman Price got away with so much, then I realised that the only redheaded man in Ponty Pandy is.... Fireman Sam! He is obviously the result of a dalliance with Dilys, and Sam feels guilty and responsible. Since he doesn't seem to pay any child support to Dilys, the least he can do is to around and check her fire alarm every now and then, and bail out their son!
And while I'm in the subject, how the hell did Elvis get to be a fireman? He's obviously not all there.

Grandma from Topsy and Tim. I get the rage when she simpers and seeks "huggles".

Postman Pat would be being performance managed in the real word. Every calamity is basically of his own making and he spends most of each day delivering a single parcel.

People, people, calm down!

My DC are now too old but I have fond memories of sleep deprived, hormone fuelled children's TV programmes as well as my own childhood loves. (Apart from the Tweenie bastards, obvs).

BTW what is wrong with Max and Ruby? DS1 identified with Max - that was a hard year - but still. Nothing compared with dressing as Spider-Man for two years

I think of Mumsnet whenever Bing and Topsy and Tim are on now

Oh God... Barney.

"Barney is a dinosaur from our imagination,
Went to war in '44 and died of constipation!"
Thats what I think of every time I think of Barney

All of them, apart from the assorted characters in Sarah and Duck and Hey Duggee. We particularly like Scarf Lady's passive aggressive bag in this house.

All of the other cheerful fuckers can just bugger off. Especially that bloody Bing.

Going to get flamed for saying this, but here goes....

I have always loathed Paddington Bear.

Don’t get me started on curious George. Not the monkey, the idiot people who bigger off and leave him in charge of a pet snake/restaurant/chocolate shop. HE’S A FUCKING MONKEY!
Then they have the nerve to come back and look all shocked that it’s gone tits up
And that restaurant should have been closed down for having a monkey as a part time waiter and a cat living in the kitchen

@Greebz my daughter watches blippi too he's a proper bellend
