children's tv.... which progs are you forced to endure but secretly rather like???

[talcy0]

I like Come Outside...
Auntie Mabel is a legend

Even Stevens makes me laugh

I like Shaun the sheep, Raven (think he is Niiiice ) and Blue Peter

Oh and Scooby Do

Quite fancy Mr steven in basil brush

love the old fireman sam's. DS says fire with a welsh accent (we live in Herts!)
can't stand Bella on tweenies and Rosie and Jim gives me the creeps.

Baby Chef freaks me out... his relationship with Miss Kettle is highly questionable... and I'm sure he's sponsored by Tate & Lyle - everything he makes has a ton of sugar in it!

Like:
Schportacus - yum yum (and I have a soft spot for Robbie Rotten's lifestyle - cake, sleep, fancy dress - what's not to like??)
Tikkabilla for Paul (yowsa yowsa)
Charlie & Lola because I love the way she constructs her sentences
Higgledy House
Shaun the Sheep

Cannot abide:
Me Too
Come Outside (lol @ carbon footprint comment - the OH says exactly the same thing!)
The Shiny Show
Smarteenies - good idea, terrible presenters(particularly Lizzie - close that mouth, you toothy gonk!!)
Fimbles - I also find the Tinkling Tree deeply disturbing... something not right about it!
Most of the Baby TV output (unfortunately DD is mesmerised & has started to demand it) with the honourable exception of Kenny & Gourie - I like the way they dance! Don't get me started on Harry the Bunny (we have customised his song - He's Harry the Bunny, he's not very funny, he's Harry the Bunny from Hell!)

I like The Secret Show, Angelina Ballerina, Shaun the Sheep the Hoobs, Charlie and Lola.
Can't abide Krypto the Super Dog OR Dora/Diego the explorer

peppa pig and hi5 rule!! AND Charlie and Lola of course - but that goes without saying.
Re Nathan comment earlier (Hi5) - got to admit that boy can dance!! but know what u mean re annoying! Not as annoying as Charlie's speaking and singing voice- grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

jim jam and sunny is great, my kids love it

Little Princess is the only one I hope's going to be on when we have channel 5 on at the weekend

ooh and I love how they make all the things from stuff in bottle top Bill

I like all of them even, Stupid .

Actually, can't stand Big Cook Little Cook, but apart from that they're all good.

Message withdrawn

LIKE: Wonder pets, peppa pig and Rory the racing car, play with me sesame, Lazytown.

HATE: Max and Ruby (Max needs a damn good kicking)
Tweenies (Bella is a bossy madam)
In the night gareden (whats all that about)
Tikkabilla (Justin is a prick)
Fire man sam (much prefer the version af FM Sam on 'you tube')

Shocked by you not liking Max Rabbit - he is so funny.

We watch Peppa Pig even when DD isn't in the room. Daddy Pig is so like DH

I love Jakers! Irish twinkly eyed piglet and chums rollicking in the countryside. Makes my kids laugh like drains.

does anyone know of a Jim Jam & Sunny video or DVD?

love:-
Charlie and Lola- it's a surname thing

Autumn/springwatch-i grew up with the Goodies

Shaun the sheep-one of the funniest programs on telly

Tommy Zoom-I think Smogs rather cute

Can't stand to be in the room programs:-

Bits and bobs

Me too

In the night Garden

Brum

(these programs make me worry about the writers sanity)

hurray,hurray there is a Jim Jam & Sunny DVD coming out next week. I saw it on Amazon.

I know it'll it'll have been said (I can't spare the time are too lazy to read through 145 posts!)

Doodle doo

The doodle doo man is a god. He can welsh me up anytime

I'm watching Blue Peter for the first time in ages there is a really fit presenter man in swimming trunks I am liking it alot!

drake and josh

hollyoaks

In the summer CBBC started showing (at weekends) an Australian cartoon called Dogstar which we happened to catch right at the beginning and totally loved - clever and original and a proper story - but it seemed not to take off & the time-slots started changing ... you can only now see it in its burial slot at 7 am (Sat am) on BBC2. Really sad.

Dh has written a Cross Letter to the BBC about it.

I haven't gone through everything below, but we have Clangers on DVD which ds & dd (aged 8 and nearly-7) watch over and over raptly. It is clear that, for them, Small Clanger and Tiny Clanger are like looking in a mirror .
