My 6 year old was obsessed with Peppa for a couple of years. Our 2 year old now will watch it but she has the attention span of a gnat and won't sit through very many shows. She is into Blippi though.

My daughter will be 2 in October

She is constantly asking for Troll (Paw Patrol), Uppies (Bubble Guppies) or Pig (Peppa Pig).

I'll take the other two over peppa but I've oddly found myself actually watching and following along with all 3

Rule 1


Same with my daughter. 2 in October. She loves "Peppa" and "Anna Elsa Anna" (Frozen II)
All I ever wanted was a Black Grand National
**** being rational, give 'em what the ask for.

The most annoying right now is Team Umizoomi. As someone that loves math, I'm very happy there's a show dedicated to early math and reasoning for toddlers, but the little girl's voice is nails on a chalkboard.

The best episode is "The Stinky Dozen".

Shank,

Try NumberBlocks. My 4yo watched a ton of umizoomi and didn't really seem to learn anything. Then he got into NumberBlocks and his math got immediately better. It's a british show with 5 minute episodes available on netflix.

Two scenes had me cracking up the first time I saw them on Peppa Pig:

- Peppa is annoyed that she can't whistle. She calls up Susie Sheep to complain about not being able to whistle, and Susie says, "You mean like this", and proceeds to whistle. Peppa instantly hangs up on her.

- They're having a Halloween party at Peppa's school, and, after one or two references to Madam Gazelle being from another country in Eastern Europe, she walks by a mirror, and the narrator says, "What's this? Madam Gazelle doesn't appear to have a reflection."

There's a similar scene when Peppa is waiting on some sort of delivery and and the doorbell rings, Peppa rushes to the door in anticipation for her delivery only to find her friend at the door. She says " oh, it's you...sorry, but I'm waiting on a delivery" and then slams the door in her friends face.

I am sorry to derail the thread further toward Bluey, but one of the interesting things about the show is that it indulges itself in stereotypes.

Most obviously, it stereotypes based on the dog breed of the character.

The terriers, for instance, are always combative and protective. Whenever they have unstructured play time, they build forts and castles and fight each other with swords. One of the funniest examples happens in the episode "Calypso" (she is the teacher). Individuals and groups are playing with each other and as Calypso walks past the three terriers, she says to herself with gentle sarcasm something like, "What a surprise! The terriers are building another fort."

In another episode that I have not seen often, the kids and Dad go down to explore a stream near the playground. Their friend Mackenzie is with them. He is a border collie, a sheep dog. Bluey is afraid to walk on the rocks that allow one to walk over the stream, but Mackenzie does it adroitly and says to Bluey something like "Just do it like you're jumping on sheep!"

But the show works against stereotypes too, and that's funny as well. Again at school, two of the characters are playing that they are married and have a baby, "Polly." After breakfast, both of them declare they must go off to work, and there is some consternation when neither is willing to give up his stereotype of what the other's role should be.

I really enjoy these shows.

With all the Pep and Bluey talk, it got me thinking which was the last American toddler show to be so widely accepted like these two?

Loved me some Peppa. My youngest boy has moved on to Japanese shows based on games about dinosaurs or dinosaur-like creatures, like Dinosaur King and Bakugan, and other dinosaur shows like Dinotrux. Dinosaur King is pretty educational for anime -- it changes locations and times to give some history lessons, and there are lots of lesser-known dino's for the kids to learn. Dinotrux is great and funny too.

Youngest girl loves all things Disney (especially "Elsa 2"), but also Spirit (excellent) and True on Netflix. She'll occasionally still watch the British shows.

StoryBots is fantastic. Guest stars like Snoop, Christina Applegate and David Cross.

All the kids love Oddbods, as well as 1/2 of the parents (me).

Update on Bluey:

By mid-Spring Disney Junior had shown roughly 52 Bluey episodes, though there are a couple I don't remember seeing.

Gradually they have dropped almost all of those original 52, so much so that we quit watching by the beginning of the summer.

Several weeks ago I happened to check the show again and discovered that Disney was showing new episodes. They have now shown three new ones per week for the last three weeks.

The best one is "Sleepytime," in which Bingo--in and out of her parents' bed--dreams a fantastic dream about the planets set to Holst's "The Planets." The story is funny and touching, the animation is amazing, and the music is wonderful.

This is real art.

Yeah, I saw they started season 2 on Disney Junior recently. Supposedly those new episodes will be available on D+ after they run on-air.

When my oldest was on a Peppa Pig kick, he would start speaking to us in a British accent. Its funny to hear a 4-year-old change accents so quickly.
Down in the valley there's all these kids from primarily spanish speaking households but they all love peppa pig so when they do speak english they do it with a british accent

My almost 4 year old girl has outgrown peppa and pretty much only watches Power Rangers: Beast Morphers on Netflix. She's obsessed with it. She's seen the only season that's on Netflix like 5 times. Refuses to watch any of the other 10 varieties of power rangers.

My kids, 5 and 7, occasionally still watch Peppa Pig. I can't believe someone posted about the whistling episode. I laughed so hard when Suzy Sheep whistled.

I'll throw in another vote for Bluey. That show is so damn funny, and at the same time very sweet and heart warming. Although, sometimes I think it gives my kids some bad habits (which I can live with). Fairies and magic xylophone are 2 of our favorites. New season just started.

Story Bots was a hit with my son, the 5 year old. They both also liked a show on Netflix called Puffin Rock.

Oh, and there's a reboot of Muppet Babies, both kids like that, too.

As I said, we mainly stick to PBS Kids , so Pinkalicious and Wild Kratts are on rotation with us. I've actually learned a bit from Wild Kratts.

Yeah, like how the animated versions of Chris and Martin are idealized forms of themselves that don't age or put on weight like the real life versions do.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
I always laugh at that part. They got that creature power where they don't age.
