Wafffle !!!

Big cook little cook!!!

Andy's prehistoric adventures!!!

Anything with mr tumble in it!!

I've got 3 kids under 5 so CBeebies is a given in our household but certain programs can certainly live without if they suddenly got pulled.

If your kid watches CBeebies what programme can you as the adult not tolerate.

This is not a thread to bash the channel just certain programmes really do take the biscuit.

Actually love Yakka Dee and Mr Onion ❤️❤️❤️

Waffle is alright, although I can't stand Mrs Hobbs (actually had a spiteful busybody neighbour just like her).
I also used to work with a vile woman who was like a cross between Gail Force and Dina Lady, therefore gigglebiz makes me cringe.
Molly and Mack is charming but there area few things that niggle me about it.

  • Why aren't the kids at school?
  • Their dad looks like he's in his 30s whilst Mack is obviously In his twenties.
  • Daisy (Mack's girlfriend) is soooo grumpy. Also it's so obvious he's way more into her than she is him. Definitely a power imbalance there.
  • When Molly accidentally makes Alice sad because she has no more adventures to go on. Grow up Lego head.

Bing is a bellend and Baby Jake gives me the creeps

The characters in Moon and Me are creepy as fuck

They really are. Colly wobble is the stuff of nightmares

Grace's amazing machines because the intro song is so damn annoying

Still preferable to Catie

I didn't have kids when she was around. Was it the same awful theme tune just with Catie instead?

Strawberries4days · 11/10/2023 21:32

Definitely Bing. Can't stand the whining at all.

The loud blue cat/monster? It's not Love monster but another one that is so loud and has to yell instead of just talk. Think my 3 year old picked up that one as she constantly shouts when she speaks 🤦🏼‍♀️

Sarah and duck was a weird one but not as weird as In the Night garden and Moon and Me😱

User7477 · 11/10/2023 21:32

BLUEY 🤣 even I can sit and watch this programme

shangelawasrobbed · 11/10/2023 21:33

Messi Goes to Okido does my head in, as does Maddie, The Home and You (I think that's what it's called). Not a fan of Vegesaurs either.

I hate Bing. My now 10 year old used to love Topsy and Tim which made me want to rip my own eyes out.

Have a 9 month old now so doing it all again, and Bing is still a knob head

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Springingintosummer · 11/10/2023 21:36

Cocomelon!

Yahyahs22 · 11/10/2023 21:36

I'm shocked at the bluey haters! It's the only programme I can actually stomach. The one where the mum feels like a rubbish mum makes me cry every time!

modgepodge · 11/10/2023 21:37

No one has mentioned coco melon?! The WORST. Followed closely by little baby bum.

Bing is also insufferable, and waffle.

I do think in general CBeebies is far preferable to Netflix/Disney though. Far far more crap on those - peppa, paw patrol, super kitties, pj masks…

Haha cross post!!

Sleepysaurus2 · 11/10/2023 21:42

Supertato!!!! Hate it.

I do like Andy’s adventures though

Zoomdoom · 11/10/2023 21:43

I've had 10yrs of the night garden every night, those birds are like nails down a chalk board and upsedaisy can get ta fuck, although I quite like macka packa and his uff puff.

emwithme · 11/10/2023 21:43

It's not on live but is still on iPlayer but Get Well Soon. Dr Fucking Ranj can do one. Love the premise of the show but fucking hell the bloke is annoying and don't get me started on Nurse Frigging Morag.

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 11/10/2023 21:47

Moon and me is weird as fuck and I think the creators were probably high as fuck at the time it’s made.

Bing hopefully will be featured on watership down.

From YouTube but bloody Steve and Maggie. Dd1 knows I hate it so puts it on purposefully!

We watch Bluey, Doc McStuffins and Sheriff Callie Wild West now with dd2. Sometimes Duggee too.

They saved me from hell when dd was in her poo withholding phase 😬

Duttercup · 11/10/2023 21:53

I don't like any educational content which probably reflects poorly on me. Numberblocks, Colourblocks etc.

Bing. Creepy, boring and whingy. The worst of everything.

I find it odd that they've dubbed the Furchester Hotel into English accents. Muppets are American.

Fiddlesticks25 · 11/10/2023 21:53

I like Octonauts, Bitz & Bob and Topsy & Tim. I'm sure some of it is bad but honestly I'd be happy for DD to watch anything on BBC over the shite on netflix (paw patrol 😱😱😱😱)

JennyForeigner · 11/10/2023 21:54

Bing bing fuckety bing

MariaVT65 · 11/10/2023 22:01

The Clangers! Annoying as fuck and I can’t even use it to help my son’s speech as I have no idea what they are called or what’s going on.

PinkMoscatoLover · 11/10/2023 22:05

Anything Mr Tumble will not be shown in my house. My DD is 2 years old, Autistic and non verbal. People always say, ‘oh why don’t you play Mr Tumble to help with signing’ erm not a chance in hell bye.

Bing irritates the hell out of me too
