Grandpa in my Pocket is crap. But it's a beacon of thespian acheivement next to that toss with Chris the 'happy' one and the chinese midget.

I'd quite like to shoot up the high street in Balamory. On the other hand, Octonauts is ace.

Waybuloo, what a load of toss. How to set back your child's speech development by 6 months!
I can cook becuase of the annoying sugary presenter.
Kerry and Alex becuase their presenting skills are wooden.
BoogieBeebies as its annoying.

Any Thomas ripoffs annoy me....Chuggington and Underground Ernie spring to mind

We like Mr Maker...anything that gets kids being more creative has to be good. My daughter got the Mr Maker book for Christmas and has been steadily working through making crocodiles, moving-eye-chicken etc

Mr Maker is the best thing on CBeebies. The guy comes across really well, is clearly talented and it gets kids interested in making stuff. All good.

That widow t****y-alike Justin gets on my tits though. As for Numberjacks...gah.

Captain Mack.. - GASH!

little un loves Mr Maker, gets her going off making stuff afterwards which is good in my book.

I prefer tiny pops channel - Little Bear is almost trippy 😀

Third and Bird

From an animation point of view it's pretty good and a whole lot more bearable then Mighty Mights! Jeez the woman on that is 'mighty' annoying.

Not having any criticism of the t****y-alike.

Saw him in panto two nights ago and he lifted a rather mediocre show to great heights whenever on stage. His Josh the Jester will surely be seen in time with the likes of Olivier, Burton, and the rest. Except Dickie B would never have carried off the ad-libbing in the custard pie scene like Justin did.

I can happily dose through chuggington, charle and lola et all on a Saturday morning, but when the tweenies come on I just want to smash my testicles to a pulp with a breeze block. Its ****ing awful

Justin's ace though - good entertainment and fun.

My personal loathing is for Big cook Little cook...couple of right plums who no doubt took loads of stick from mates down the pub. Incidently I saw an ad for a new sex type show with the bloke who plays little cook hosting it. I also really despise show me show me but the little absolutly loves it?

Gigglebiz. My 2 year old switches the tv off himself when it comes on.

Justin is very good at what he does to be fair though.

Turd & Bird aaarrrrgh.

Mr Maker - excellent stuff 🙂 And (youngster Sam &) I quite like Grandpa in my Pocket. Worryingly I've developed quite a thing for Jason's mum too.

Mighty-Mights. She has to be the most talentless brain-dead dimwit ever. Its just so false & badly put together. Its like something they would come up with on The Apprentice.
Also the show with the girl who rides a big trike around with the three teddies on the back. A pointless waste of resources.

Octonauts is class. Pure class, but Peso really needs to MTFU a bit sometimes.
Some of the voices on the creatures they find are great. 🙂

We met the chap who does Green Balloon Club at the NEC a few years ago. He was simply brilliant with kids. He spent ages getting all the children involved. The girl who does the voice of Jelly is very nice.... 😉

That gash about the Zebra.
Anything with Chris "Anorak" Jarvis I'm suprised that no one has given him a public execution for being irritating.
The Tweenies
Chuggington

Thomas the tank has gone a bit gash now too since it went all CG.

Now Teletubbies on the other hand is brilliant!

zing zillas: its like a bad experiment with the tweenies and planet of the apes, even my 3 year old boy cries when it comes on.

The music from Waybuloo also does my head in, new age twaddle.

And thanks to grandpa in my pocket I'm now called Mr Liker Biker.

Mr Maker talented? Wtf? You are clearly too young to remember Tony Hart... Those stupid facial expressions really wind me up. Gurning does NOT help get your message across, it makes you look a tw*t.

Show me show me is ok. Chuggington is not that bad but the stupid theme song drives me up the wall. Gigglebiz is funny, Justin is actually pretty talented.

Tweenies annoys me too cos the kids are just such whiny brats. Waybuloos is kind of silly but Meg loves it to bits. She goes and gets me and Mrs Grips when the yoga bit comes on and has a whale of a time as we all do the positions. I also like Third and Bird.

Mighty mites annoys the crap out of me as do parts of Nina and the Neurons. Wtf is that stupid sequence about with neurons? Pointless. And most of the explanations are completely pointless too. I can cook tho is good - they really cook real food and Meg now loves to help in the kitchen and likes to wash up cos that's what they do on telly...

Cbeebies on the whole isn't too bad.

Be afraid as your children get older because there is worse to come like Hannah Montana, Sonny with a Chance, Suite Life of Zack and Cody (this programme is banned from my house as I just can't stand it!)

iCarly is the current fave in our house. (I like it too.)

Phineas and Ferb are ace.

Katie? Are you gay or something? As long as she doesn't try to sing that is.

TBH there is none I would watch if I did not have children

You do realise they're not actually aimed at you, junkie? I'm not a big fan of painting with my fingers, but the kids seem to like that. Lots of perfectly decent (or even actually rather good - eg Mister Maker) programmes being slated here.

Even my TV addict 3yo will turn off Waybuhippy though - he has some taste.

+1 for Waybuloo. Don't get what its trying to achieve, other than filling airtime.

Far more sinister than that IMHO!

Alright, whoever dissed Katie from I Can Cook - would you like to step outside now?

Waybuloo is in another dimension of annoyingness to anything else on Cbeebies. Even Lazytown is half-way bearable by comparison.

Mister Maker is good, my daughter loves huim I think. Boogie Beebies also good, but Justin clearly threatened to leave unless they let him do Gigglebiz.

He seems a lovely bloke, but the world didn't need a new Dick Emery.

Waybuloo is ace, but probably aimed at the youngest of Cbeebies audience. My 11month old daughter loves it, but i think it is mostly due to the bright colours and massive eyes that the characters have.

When they stop flying about and play hide and seek she is not interested anymore though.

+1 for Octonauts; our two love them. Although WTF are the walking miniature vegetables all about?

We accidentally slipped over to CBBC before Christmas and caught an episode of Big Babies. The kids (5 and 3.5yrs) looked on in complete dumbfoundment as I p!ssed myself laughing at it. Great stuff - reminded me of Vic & Bob doing Otis and Marvin.

-1 Waybuloo is great. Forest animal sprites that perform yoga twice a day, using crystal chimes, can float when happy, and when they reach ultimate happiness they "Buloo" and ascend to heaven. Perfect for new age babies: our 8 month old loves it.

Gigglebiz however is awful.

Our girls liked Waybuloo until they were about 11 months now they aren't interested.

They LOVE Justin Fletcher though (both in Something Special and Gigglebiz) they are normally quite captivated throughout. I quite enjoy parts of Gigglebiz too 'Hello, I'm Arthur Sleep'.

Should have known there'd be some fans amongst the hippies on here 😉

I quite like gigglebiz (though my son far prefers Something Special - I don't think he really gets Gigglebiz), so obviously tastes vary

Come the revolution Zingzillas will be the first into the gas chamber...

I'm pretty sure that Gigglebiz would have been on prime-time Saturday night ITV telly in the 80s though. It's basically Benny Hill without the sauce...

Oh I forgot about Numberjacks. That's just awful. However, I think that all it's really meant to do is create characters that look like numbers to create familiarity. The plot is immaterial I suppose.

I'm quite open about wanting a bit of her.

In the immortal words of Jack from Still Game (or was it Victor?) while discussing Lorraine Kelly: "She's all mumsy and pumpable."

Edit: If I get banned for that it'll be worth it.

I'm not sure I [i]hate[/i] any of them, but the presenter of Mighty Mites does grate somewhat. I considered writing in to see if my boys could try controlled demolition, archery, fencing or range shooting, and then we could engineer a plot whereby she was erm, injured in a tragic accident or something. But I don't hate her. 🙂

On a side note, my rather odd mate keeps sending me text messages asking me how many pints it'd take before I would enjoy carnal knowledge of certain female cbeebies presenters. The last one was Gail Force from Gigglebiz.....

I haven't replied.

It's actually a big social indexing experiment - I & my boys like Waybuloo which puts us firmly in the pinko commie hippy end of the spectrum. With our new lizard overlords in firmly place we'll be first against the wall - you see, it's VAT now, jackboots next week

She was on something else last week with normal make-up on and she looked quite ok in a rather plain way.

The one with the funny arm has beautiful eyes but I am always distracted by the way her 'fingers' move.

Octonauts is superb. I built a Duplo Octopod the other day!
Gigglebiz = Fast Show
Numberjacks = super-chronic acting. I fancy being an extra
Surprised no-one's mentioned Waybuloo backdrops being in the Lakes - Anyone want to add to the Langdales and Birkhouse Moor?

Be thankful you don't have to endure imagination movers, animal mechanicals, special agent oso or jungle junction on Playhouse Disney. Though imagination movers is made bearable by the lovely Nina.

Ben and Holly is great. My mrs reckons I'm a sad git for laughing at the jokes.
Horrible histories is the fine show, and apparently educational too?!
