If you do not answer Caillou, it means that you have never been subjected to Caillou.


Out of curiousity, why is Caillou so bad?

Btw, caillou is not only terrible but my phone's autocorrect is having a heyday with that name. Makes it even more annoying.


Fireman Sam is pretty bad but at least the episodes are short and I'm able to easily tune it out

Caillou.

So so bad.


But most bizarre--even more bizarre than Teletubbies, was Boobah. That was several years ago (my youngest is 10.)

Oldies that were super creepy:

Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood - yes, I know he was an icon, but that show was just horrible.

The Magic Garden. Just...why?

Winky Dink and You. Remember? You had to hold up a plastic film sheet and color onto the TV while it was on? Sort of low tech.

My DH and I agree. You should bring the beverage of your choice over and we'll watch.

Love Peppa Pig. My DD watched it relentlessly when in London, UK.

Only clicked to say Caillou. Don't even give enough of a shit to read other answers.

WHAT!??!!

Super Why and Blues Clues are shows I don't mind having on as background noise even when the kids aren't around. I secretly love the dorky Blues Clues songs: "Here's the mail, it never fails, it makes me want to wag my tail, when it comes I want to wail: MAAAAAIIIILLLLLLLLL!" hahahhahahahaha



And now that's in my head. Hate.


I've got the Miffy theme song from upthread stuck in my head.
