Seriously if you don't like it. Turn it off. Thought this was the outdoor board? Send your kids outside to play.

Seriously, this is the Entertainment board.


No kidding. Using your logic, if you don't like the thread, don't post. Go outside and play in traffic.

Ha! It is multifactorial, but the biggest is that my wife and I don't want to expose them to a ton of TV. It helps that my 6 year old is generally disinterested too. When they do get screen time, it is general Disney movies/shorts, VeggieTales, and Mr Rogers (thank you Amazon Prime). And Aggie sports of course.

I can't speak for what's on tv now, but a decade ago the ****ing wiggles ruined my life temporarily.

This thread just shows the power of the Canadian crybaby known as Caillou . His dad's sweater gets on my nerves and also how it seems they are just miles away from the beach in Canada

would wake some kids up just to see Caillou get popped one time for whining

My world is turning, changing each day..with mommy and daddy and finding my way.
Growing up is not so tough, except when I've had enough but there's lots
of fun stuff I'm Caillou, Caillou, Caillou, I'm Caillou. That's me!

Dora, Peppa Pig, and Doc Mcstuffins.

Dora is the only one that I have a blanket prohibition on. However, I suspect my wife lets my kid watch Dora while I'm at work, but I can't prove it.

I would get rid of Lazytown. Its some wacked-out show with a mix of real actors wearing weird wigs and prosthetics, and creepy looking puppets. F'n creepy. I mean like, keep you up at night creepy.

Oh, and that show with the skinny DJ guy and the weird life-size monsters that don't change facial expressions. Its like a scary acid-trip.

Puppets are just damn creepy.

And then there were these on the Electric Company when I was a kid....


Still give me the heebie-jeebies.

Yo Gabba Gabba? I actually enjoy that one. They have pretty good cameos and musical guests. The creator of YGG is actually the lead singer of the Aquabats, who have a totally kickass show called The Aquabats! Supershow!

I think it's on netflix.

I think its just that I get creeped out by characters that move and act human-like, but have faces that never move.

Constant, creepy smiles and never blinking eyes that stare straight into your soul.

I have banned Lazytown from our home; it looks bizarre.

Have you ever used the Sprout Snooze-a-thon to get the kids to get ready for bed? 30 minutes of every Sprout character sleeping; I always suspect they'll cut to a shot of Sporticus in the gym pumping iron and sweating profusely while everyone else is night-night.

Oh, and I just Googled Caillou Devil and got the images.

We took our son to see YGG when they were doing their live tour in 2013.

I was shocked at the number of dads who came along. And who could sing all the songs. Not to mention how the crowd roared when Biz Markie showed up and starting singing "Just a Friend."

I am a little sad I think my son has outgrown it, but I haven't removed it from the DVR yet.

Agree YGG is pretty great. Except for the dildo puppet.
The first time my husband saw the show, he whispered to me what was up with walking, talking dildo.

And I would get rid of Dora.
I hate that show.


BTW, the reason you never see Max and Ruby's parents is because Ruby killed them and buried them in the backyard. They interrupted a Bunny Scout meeting and had to die. Why do you think they grow such nice fruits and vegetables? That is why Max barely speaks. He is terrified he is next.

Ones of hate:
Bubble Guppies
Henry Hugglemonster
Curious George
Chuggington


Ones of love:
Ben 10
Chima
Wild Kratts
Phineas and Ferb

Fortunately my kids currently only watch ones I like now.

Wild Kratts is their favorite and I don't really mind. It's got them very interested in hiking and seeing new creatures. I was worried it would mess with them having issues with my hunting or fishing, but they've been really good about it.

Thomas and Friends.


Here is every Thomas episode ever.

Sir TopEm Hat tells the trains to do something.
Trains don't do as they are told.
They fook up a bunch of things.
Trains realize they should have done as told, somehow everything gets fixed quickly.

My son is obsessed with Wild Kratts. I don't mind because he's actually learning stuff and telling me later about this animal and that animal.

And yeah, I've always been a little disturbed by the fact that Max and Ruby are essentially on their own.

That live show was awesome... Have you shown your son the Aquabats show? It's campy like the old Batman TV show... It might be right up his alley!

You guys have it all wrong. The most annoying show on right now (that is somewhat new I think) is "Nina Needs to Go". OMG I don't care if its only 5-10 minutes, but I can't stand that show.

YOU NEVER LEARN YOUR LESSON! ARGH!
