In short:
The American Broadcasting Company has axed Jimmy Kimmel Live! for comments the host made referencing the murder of right-wing activist Charlie Kirk.
The Australian Broadcasting Corporation has received hundreds of complaints intended for America’s ABC about the show being cancelled.
The vast majority of complaints sent to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation contained expressions of dismay, with many citing concerns about free speech and the First Amendment to the US Constitution.
lol
We should start writing basic political education into Bluey, pitched at the level of 5 year olds, and start pushing it into the US via Disney+ so their kids, and perhaps some of their parents have the tools they need to understand the world around them. Because sure as shit they aren’t getting it from their own media and education system.
I’ve got a kid on the way and I’m going to have to start learning what all these programs are. All I can remember is Thomas the Tank Engine and Magic School Bus. I’m guessing they’re not on anymore.
Free advice: Watch Baby Race now, before your baby is born. This episode is for the parents.
The episodes are only about 7 minutes long. It’s well worth the investment.
Based on your server name, your from the UK?
Shaun the Sheep is an excellent one for the kids, Bluey is as well.
Paddington bear is interesting, in that its a nice show for the kids to watch, but i notice its very British upper middle class with it’s approach.
Worse than not on, they remake shows with cgi and different voice actors.
Watching tv with kids is great. The first time I heard my oldest laugh was watching Shaun the Sheep with him. The last one we had moved into the time when everyone had their own idiot screens and it wasn’t the same which I regret. I didn’t know Bluey existed until she kept nagging me to play games. Bandit is a tough act to follow.
I can imagine Bluey and Bingo going out one Saturday with Chilli and Bandit and they arrive at their school slightly confused because it is the weekend. And there are lots of people there going into a hall. They find some friends and play with them. Bluey wants to see what the adults are doing so goes in with Bandit and watches him give his name to be checked on the electoral roll then he puts some numbers in boxes. She grabs a free pencil which she thinks is awesome. They get some sausages and all agree it was a great day out.
Then the American kids watch and ask their parents why they never go and vote like Bandit and Chilli. And their parents say they couldn’t be bothered and it doesn’t make a difference.
Not omly remade in bad CGI or Cartoon but horrible writing and storylines, like the thomas the tank engine cartoon they jist straight up bunnyhop between tracks and do backflips and shit like they are train shaped people.
Daniel Tiger is another good one. It’s pretty slow with very easy to follow lessons in each episode.
Hey me too,
I was hoping to just buy Thomas the tank engine DVDs or something and then tell the kid that’s all there is until they hit school.
My wife said that’s a bad idea, so 🤷
If your kid is into trains, go with Chuggington over Thomas. Dinosaur Train is also pretty great. Time-travel, Trains and Dinosaurs!
