Children's TV characters you just can't stand

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?

Ladybug and Cat Noir. That fucking show makes zero sense and has the same storyline every time. And neither of them know the other one's secret identity when they go to the same school and see each other every day? Ladybug's friend with the fucking annoying blog gets on my nerves too.

Peppa pig
Bing
Topsy and Tim

Whingy overgrown kids who always get their own way.

Singlebutmarried · 30/01/2018 21:34

All the PJ masks brats

And

Curious fucking George.

Nanny0gg · 30/01/2018 21:35

I can’t stand Ben and Holly personally! Pleased to see no mention on Hey Duggee though, I could watch him all day, a-woof!

Love Nanny Plum!

And I really should start a Hey Duggee Fan club. Stick, stick, stick, stick...

Nanny0gg · 30/01/2018 21:37

Curious fucking George.

Who surely isn't actually a monkey?

IheartCaptainHolt · 30/01/2018 21:38

@Nanny0gg Duggee rules!

If anyone doesn't like Hey Duggee then they seriously need to re-evaluate their outlook on life

Owletterocks · 30/01/2018 21:43

Definitely the whole cast of Topsy and Tim!

Masha off Masha and the bear. She is a little horror, no wonder her parents sent her off to live in the woods!

TieGrr · 30/01/2018 21:44

Nobody's mentioned bloody Ryder from bloody Paw Patrol yet?

Nicolaw06 · 30/01/2018 21:46

Rastamouse does my head in, telly gets turned over!
Also school of roars - it constantly pops up with a monster making A silly type of roar noise when it changes to a different scene, but this seems to happen about every 30 seconds - very annoying!

cupcake007 · 30/01/2018 21:46

I cannot stand Pui from Show Me Show Me. Gives me the rage.

Butttons · 30/01/2018 21:47

Why don't little Roy's parents realis he's a cartoon?

Katie bloody Morag and her stupid theme tune does my head in

But I do have a soft spot for Flop

Butttons · 30/01/2018 21:48

Love this thread OP!

LegallyBrunet · 30/01/2018 21:50

Peppa Pig gives me the rage. Also whichever character in Peppa Pig who said to Mummy Pig that she wouldn't be able to do the hammer throw contest (?) because she was woman and not strong enough.George is whiny. Miss Rabbit probably isn't filling her tax returns properly (how many jobs does she have?). Poor Daddy Pig probably cries after every episode because everyone's picking on him because of his weight. Dr. Brown Bear just hands out medicine willy-nilly...
Also, anyone as clumsy and irresponsible as Elvis surely would not pass the required tests to be a fireman? Right?
Also, naughty Norman.

TheHolyToast · 30/01/2018 21:50

I'm a bit behind the times as my kids are grown up now but I hated:

Barney the fucking dinosaur and his gang of perfect kids

Angelica from Rugrats

Bella from the Tweenies - bossy little twat

DW from Arthur. Very irritating.

LittleBird74 · 30/01/2018 21:51

Everyone in Fireman fucking Sam. Why do they need to shriek so?
Blippi on YouTube - annoying creep
Masha and the bloody bear - holding out for the episode when bear gets sick of her shit, flips and eats her.

Teddy1970 · 30/01/2018 21:54

Mr Bloom and that fake Northern accent...

Heartofglass12345 · 30/01/2018 21:57

@Greebz thanks i now have the tractor song stuck in my head Grin
I think suzy sheep is a bitch! Lol

Hesburger · 30/01/2018 21:57

Tony Welsh.

Flop (and Bing).

The boy that causes all the call outs on Fireman Sam.

BigBaboonBum · 30/01/2018 22:00

Peppa pig. Unfortunately my niece took a liking to copying her, so that was a tonne of fun

exLtEveDallas · 30/01/2018 22:01

Hey Dugee
Stick stick stick stick stick stick stick sticky sticky stick stick
(When I'm babysitting for a friends child)

Every single member of the fucking Dumping Ground - especially Floss.
(Whenever DD wants to piss me off)

TellerTuesday4EVA · 30/01/2018 22:02

Oh @Greebz we've heard of Blippi - what a dick. Running around soft play areas like he's on whiz

I said to DD (4) we could go somewhere fun where would she like to go? Answer: Funtastic playtorium in Bellamy, Washington

angelnix · 30/01/2018 22:05

Mister Maker and the dancing shapes......actually, I think my rage towards him was initially directed to Neil Buchanan on Art Attack due to his "just grab a........(pile of crap lying around the house) to make a......(nother pile of crap but covered in glitter!)

Teddy1970 · 30/01/2018 22:05

How can I forget Rastamouse?...just awful, and although I don't mind Topsy and Tim the parents really get on my wick, they're so bloody perfect it's ridiculous.

Nanny0gg · 30/01/2018 22:05

@exLtEveDallas

Keep watching. You will become hooked.

Elledouble · 30/01/2018 22:11

Oh, Peter Rabbit is awful - but the worst of the little thieving fuckers is Benjamin Bunny. “Rabbits are brave! Rabbits are brave!”

No they’re bloody not. Whoever wrote that line has clearly never seen a rabbit.
