Always used to hate Waffle. The singing was dreadful and it's so repetitive. Bing seems to live in a weird set up and all the characters have irritating voices.

I've come to terms with Peppa Pig, I can bear it just about. I still think she's a fat shaming little cow though

Blippi, Mr Tumble and Mr Bean are banned with no exceptions

Meant to add, I actually love Storybots on Netflix, and often find myself sat with DS actually learning stuff at the grand age of 38 😂

I have a strict veto policy in the house and have so far used it on paw patrol, gecko's garage and Peppa pig. Unfortunately DS1 used his veto on Bluey. Supertato has grown on me!

Unbelievable my 10 year old and 6 year old have re-found twirlywoos. It was hideous the first time around. Now it just feels cruel. That bloody music 🎶

Kitcaterpillar · 28/04/2023 19:16

Bluey - I don't care that everyone else loves it, I think it's twee, emotionally cynical in its attempts to get exhausted parents to cry, and the dad's an annoying prick. I'd LTB in a heartbeat.

There's one where he has to leave for work but the kids fuss so he stays and plays instead. Thanks, Bluey, great stuff.

Ugh!!!!

Blippi. That knob can get right in the sea.

Mine would be blippi too, my 3yr old is obsessed. That and bloody peppa

Dora the explorer. Longstanding complete understandable hatred here carried over from babysitting in the early 00s for years and being subjected to that patronising madam.

Cocomelon is a more recent one from my nephew and niece. I don't know why but it puts me on edge.

Now mine are 5 and nearly 4 I've had my fill of most of it. Bing is made more annoying by the fact that he doesn't always speak correctly!! Why make a kids show where the English is wrong!

Agreed 👍🏻 is bing suppose to represent special needs children because otherwise I don’t get why he acts the way he does. And is that his dad or not cause he doesn’t call him dad ?

Blippi! My god I can’t stand that guy.

RiverRock22 · 28/04/2023 20:18

Hey Duggee, really weird how he makes the squirrels give him a hug before their parents arrive 😅

meow1989 · 28/04/2023 20:32

Baby Jake - for some reason it was always "broken" when D's wanted to watch it

Topsy and tim and their insufferable middle class lives

Bing, obvs

Daniel tiger

Tayo the bus

Peppa pig

I actually don't mind paw patrol.

Alitlebitsleepy · 28/04/2023 20:59

Supertato 🙄

Alitlebitsleepy · 28/04/2023 21:03

Am I the only one who likes Bing? I feel like it shows real every day difficulties, conflicts and emotions that young children experience. Flop is parenting goals 😂

but I don’t know why the children are enormous animals and the adults are little raggedy doll things

apapuchi · 28/04/2023 21:04

I have a really high tolerance for loads that seem to infuriate generally, but CocoMelon or whatever it's called is awful. It seems too confused to even be teaching anything I think, but is immensely popular. Bing is a close second as, well, what a whingebag.

Sorry but I literally laughed out loud to your comment. It's so true tho. 🤣

Gigglebiz, in fact anything with Justin Fletcher

OuiLaLa · 28/04/2023 21:10

Coco melon and baby Jake here.

I can tolerate waffle the wonder dog but I just wonder why a family adopt a dog and immediately fall into some kind of dog cult where they dress up and pretend to be dogs all the time. Like, the neighbour is kind of right about it all?

OuiLaLa · 28/04/2023 21:11

Oh yeah, giggle is is pretty offensive

doglikescheeseontoast · 28/04/2023 21:13

Bing - whiny little fucker.

I told my grandson he doesn't come to Nanny's tv.

shoulditbethishard1 · 28/04/2023 21:13

Bing is the obvious answer - just weird

god help anyone who says they hate Bluey - I’d challenge them to a fight 😂 Bluey is genius

SquidwardBound · 28/04/2023 21:15

I hate blippi too. Sadly my toddler does not agree.

It’s marginally better than watching videos of toy vehicles on YouTube though. Sadly he likes this more than even blippi.

OTOH I think that geckos garage is like some toddler version of salad fingers.
