(Not sure if this is really "entertainment" but since it's a tv show I posted here.)
I made the mistake of letting my 2yo watch Daniel Tiger and now it's all she wants to watch (previously she was into Elmo/Sesame Street and Curious George). Does anyone else find him insufferable? He is constantly whining and having tantrums. I understand the idea of the show is to teach lessons so he has to be doing something wrong or having trouble in order of the show to have a lesson to teach but gosh he's annoying. |

This. For us, Caillou was the WORST.... But Caillou's voice was much worse and higher pitched. And he was so hideous. Daniel Tiger is much cuter. |

| Daniel Tiger songs get stuck in my head and are annoying AF. So is the Ponyo song! |

| I love Daniel Tiger! We use the songs, or variations of the songs all the time. |

| My kids (including my 6 yo rising 1st grader that I'd think would be too old for him) are now loving DT. My husband thinks the show is hilarious - "why do the guys not wear pants, but the women do?" "Why is the king like, best friends with a guy working at the clock factory?" "Do they pay for the trolley?" |

| Daniel is a typical 3-4 year old. Caillou on the other hand... |

| Love Daniel tiger. So much less annoying than other shows. Good lessons too! |

| I like that his friends take turns being the brat-of-the-day. It's not always DT being stubborn, sometimes it's Prince Wednesday or Owl. |

I love Daniel.
I make up my own Daniel-tiger-type songs. Ok, just like two of them. |

| I wish I could be like Daniels mom. Even her MAD is fairly calm and patient. |

Yes, why don't Daniel Tiger or his dad wear pants? That bothers me a lot, especially in the episode where he is learning to use the bathroom. And I now have that song in my head, "If you have to go potty, stop and go right away, flush and wash and be on your way!" |
