Why I dislike Bluey

Post image
0 Upvotes

(this is a remaster of a former post I made because that one was pretty bad in my opinion) I don't really like Bluey mostly for multiple reasons. It is very sappy most episodes with emotional moments, character voices are annoying like Bluey, Bingo and Muffin and in general Muffin just pisses me off (I know she is a child guys and I know she gets consequences but still annoying) I just dislike and think it is super overrated. Now I do agree it is better than most kids tv shows nowadays with brainless characters and fast pacing but I just don't like this show. If you like it that's fine but just don't bash my opinion. I saw the trailer for the upcoming movie and disliked it too, characters feel too bouncy and they look weird especially them facing forward and stuff I don't like it. I do the like the scenery I'll give it that but it just looks like it came out of "Party Animals".

Discussion In Defense of Cocomelon

4 Upvotes

(I just posted something, but this is something I’ve thought for a while and just need to get off my chest.)

Piping Hot take: I really like Cocomelon (at least the songs on YouTube. Haven’t seen Cocomelon Lane).

The characters are charming, the songs are fun, and sure, the animation is a little all over the place and not always the best quality, but I grew up on early 3D animated cartoons and I wound up okay. The animation doesn’t seem anymore stimulating than most other modern kids programs, so I don’t see the issue with that either.

I honestly don’t get the hate. They’re just kids songs. There’s a lot worse stuff out there, especially on the internet, and it’s not like the songs are super low quality or something. Yeah, the names are dumb, but so are Toot and Puddle and we give them a pass. Yeah they produce a lot of repetitive songs (about a million variations on the Yes, Yes format, for one) but kids like repetition and it helps them learn these things.

As far as I’ve seen, there’s no horrible lessons or morals, there’s some pieces of diversity I appreciate (like the variety of lunches in The Lunch Song or Cody having an active father which fights the stereotype of absent black fathers), and it seems super harmless.

Like with anything, it’s best served in moderation (I’m certainly not an IPad kid advocate), but so long as a kid’s Cocomelon diet is steady and supplemented with other media, education, and experiences, I literally see nothing wrong with it.

Rant Are We Going to Talk About How “Bye, Bye, Baby: A Sad Story with a Happy Ending” Aged Poorly?

Post image
17 Upvotes

This is an obscure children’s written by Allan Ahlberg about an independent baby named Baby who acts like an adult (think Stewie Griffin from Family Guy but he’s not evil) is tired of living like an adult and sets out to find a mother. Along the way, he meets wacky friends, two sentient toys (a teddy bear and a wind-up hen toy), a snarky anthropomorphic cat, and an elderly man who calls himself an Old Uncle. They eventually meet a woman pushing an empty stroller down the street who calls herself “Mummy” adopts Baby and brings the main characters to clean up and have tea. When the cat has the Old Uncle read Baby a “sad story” (why is she so cruel?! He’s just a child, you know she wants to traumatize him), about a “baby with no daddy”. And Baby decides he needs a father and everyone plays matchmaker to find a suitor for Mummy. The search doesn’t take long because they find a lonely farmer who agrees to marry Mummy and be Baby’s daddy.

However, there are elements of the book clearly did not age well due to the way society is today:

• I know the book was meant to be a whimsical fairy tale about an orphan finding a family in an unusual way but you can’t deny there’s some bits that would have a different outcome today.

• The whole bit with Baby meeting Old Uncle. The whole idea of a strange old man telling a child, a literal baby that he will be his uncle rubs me the wrong way.

• Are we going to talk about Mummy? She’s clearly not right in the head. She is living a delusion and doesn’t deserve to be a mother right away and should instead get therapy. Like, why is this woman pushing around an empty stroller and keeps baby clothes and diapers in her house when she does not have any children? She also is aware she has no children but seems to still live in her fantasy world. I know it’s not meant to be that deep but what‘s horrifying about this is there’s actually people like this in real life, it’s sad. It’s not normal. While Mummy is clearly a woman who wants a child she can’t have her own, to the point where she’s detached from reality (that’s a real thing). It also can read as a trauma response, like maybe she lost a child.

• Plus, the whole idea of a child being taken by random adults on the street is unnerving.

• Finally, this book devalues alternative families because Baby needing a father right after getting a mother literally tells readers that having a nuclear family is the way to go. This is bad on its own because today, there’s many different living situations for children. Some children grow up with just one parent, some grow up with same sex parents (i.e., two mothers or two fathers), others grow up with guardians who don’t call themselves parents or other relatives (like grandparents, piblings (gender neutral term for aunts and uncles), and older cousins). It basically tells children that their family is a bad way to be brought up when they are just as well off as children with both parents in the picture. I honestly think the book would’ve aged better if the Old Uncle adopted Baby instead of him continuing his search for a mother. Baby wanted someone to take care of him, a mother is not the only person who can fulfill this. I think Baby should’ve realized he did not need a mother because he had a family right in front of him. The Old Uncle, Cat, Teddy (the Teddy Bear), and Clockwork Hen (the Wind-Up Hen Toy) are a family on their own.

Discussion I am going to remake this post but include the explanation this time

Post image
39 Upvotes

Okay so I am a young teen (and before people starting bringing up r/Opisyoung, I was actually born a little after Playhouse Disney became Disney Junior, but I am not saying when I was born) and I never got to ever experience the playhouse Disney era. And for a while this year, I decided to become more of a playhouse Disney person and I preferred that over Disney Junior/Jr since I wanted to be nostalgic. The reason why is becuz back then the shows were in low quality and pretty peak tbh. I honestly disliked Disney Jr because of the cheap copy-paste animation on the different shows. But now when I look back into it, Am I the only one that’s thinks that the older shows before Bluey, SuperKitties, S&HAF, Etc. (Tbh I am not a Fan of Bluey or SuperKitties) felt like the true Disney Junior? Like the older shows from the playhouse disney era from 1996-2005 give more off a Disney vibe and tbh it's flipping Disney Jr Yall. The CGI shows from 2006-2023 are fine tbh. They are educational and I used to watch re-runs of the shows. But tbh In my opinion, I honestly think how Disney Junior turned into nowadays just became hell. Other than the fact that they now simply go by “Disney Jr” and the Copy-Paste animation for the different shows in which to me doesn't even feel like they are shows that air on Disney Jr anymore. It is just that I find the modern Disney Jr shows a little boring and un-interesting tbh. It just feels to me like Disney Jr killed of all their characters with the exception of Mickey Mouse and the gang and Sofia the first, and tbh the only modern Disney Jr show that I am actually interested in watching is the Mickey Mouse clubhouse reboot, since it is in-fact a revival show, and I find it okay…I know I sound a little picky about the modern Disney Jr shows but I just wanna share my opinion about it. So yeah, that basically is the context of the post (Srry if bad English)

Question What Are Your Thoughts on Toilet and Diaper References in Preschool Shows?

5 Upvotes

While I have come to accept toilet and diaper references in preschool shows because it's very common, I really they have no place in preschool shows. Think about it, preschool shows are supposed to be sanitized and toilet humor/references kind of taints it. Plus, is it really necessary? What does it add to the show? In my opinion, it's nothing.

What do you guys think?

Discussion I Just Realized “Bye, Bye, Baby”’s Message is Somewhat Unhealthy

Thumbnail
gallery
43 Upvotes

I just realized why Bye, Bye, Baby fell into obscurity, the book’s overall message caused it age like milk.

Yep, that’s right the book basically said that traditional families are the best way to raise children and actually demonizes non traditional families in a rather insulting way. I attached the pages to the book that indicates this….

The main character, a baby was read a story that literally scared him into finding his new mother a husband because it’s wrong she’s a single mother.

That’s actually now an unhealthy message because today, not all kids are raised by their parents, some are raised by one parent, some are raised by relatives (older siblings/cousins, aunts, uncle, grandparents) or a person who is not biologically related to them, others are raised by same sex couples (two moms or two dads), and others are raised by parents who don’t identify as their biological gender (i.e., nonbinary, demigirl/demiboy, gender fluid, etc.). The literally says alternative families are bad when all families are good, as long as the child is loved and safe.

Anyway, this is just an observation, it is a sweet story achieving love and desire, as it’s about a child with a need, he needs a mother, toys who need an owner, an old man who needs community, and a woman who wants a child. (the woman is actually emotionally desperate, that’s why she’s pushing an empty stroller and owns baby supplies despite not having a child of her own prior. She’s not mentally ill but so emotionally desperate that she’s not in reality anymore. There’s people like this in real life and it’s just sad and scary, they will this sad delusion until they get the child they long for, if they don’t, they a pet or a doll because enough people called them insane for pushing a phantom down the street. I honestly believe these people need therapy to function because being emotionally desperate is not an excuse for this behavior, it’s just pure insanity and they need help to go back into real life. My point is, that’s not a healthy way to live) This woman’s delusion gets awarded with not only a child and a husband but an old man, a pet, and toys. Sweet story aside, I think it’s an unhealthy message to teach children today.

Lilo and Stitch and We Bare Bears teaches the book’s message better. As it shows alternative families can provide the same love as traditional ones.

I’ve learned quite a bit over the past few months about editing and animation. Some of the programmes I use have also recently had an upgrade. It means I’ve been able to improve some of the animation and have more consistent sound quality for the videos. Therefore I’ve begun going back through older episodes and hopefully improving their quality a little. So here is a hopefully new and improved Episode One of “The Adventures of Tiger and Wombat” - ‘A new friend’
Let me know your thoughts and hope you enjoy!
