Blog:Peppa Pig But It Has The Original Reasons Why It Sucks

Peppa Pig is a British children's show that premiered in 2004 and continues to this day. It was created by Astley Neville and Mark Baker in association of Entertainment One. Today, it currently airs on Nick Jr.

Why It Sucks

 * 1) Terrible, as well as messy character designs. Everyone's arms and legs are drawn as sticks, the lines of their outlines overlap, and every side has two eyes, meaning that they have four eyes in total. Peppa's head has the appearance of more a whistle than a pig, and everyone has retractable teeth.
 * 2) Simplistic animation, but since this is a preschool show, it can do.
 * 3) The narrator says literally everything that happens on screen.
 * 4) Bad voice acting. Peppa's voice sounds like nails on a chalkboard, George's crying is very annoying and their school teacher has a French accent for no rhyme or reason.
 * 5) The show encourages bad behavior to children, similar to Caillou. Parents are also never seen scolding the kids in the show when they act like spoiled brats.
 * 6) Peppa is very unlikable because she is prone to thinking everything has to go her way in some episodes.
 * 7) Very simplistic, yet repeated plots such as Peppa and George making pancakes, and some stupid and dangerous, yet strange plots like swimming in a frozen beach and using extremely loud noises to make a baby go to sleep.
 * 8) The show had one episode, Mister Skinnylegs, permanently banned in Australia. This is because Peppa and George make friends with a spider in the episode. The reason it was banned is because it told kids to not be scared of spiders, as "they can't hurt you". When in reality, Australia has some of the world's most dangerous spiders. Also, the episode could even scare those with arachnophobia, the fear of spiders.
 * 9) Peppa and George's friends are very one-dimensional. They have very little character traits and are just there to expand the grocery list of characters in the show.
 * 10) If a character does have actual personality traits, they are exceedingly unlikeable.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Some episodes actually have fairly decent plots.
 * 2) The one episode was banned so you never have to see it again if you're in Australia.
