Were the makers of this show on acid or something? I flipped through the channels one day and saw the strangest show on, and I had no idea what it was, so I kept watching just to figure out what the hell I was looking at. Turns out it was Teletubbies. When I was a toddler I watched educational stuff like Sesame Street and Mister Rogers, not some acid trip speaking gibberish like Teletubbies. While it may not hurt kids to watch this stuff, I can't see how it does them any good.

It's not nearly as bad as Barney, plus it's for infants, not teens or adults...but still a bizarre and unnecessary show.

I like this show. It has a psychodelic quality. Unfortunately, my son has outgrown it so I don't have an excuse to watch it anymore.

I've seen a few episodes of this show, kinda creepy to be honest and not in a good way. Seems choatic and scary and nothing is really coherent or explained, total anarchy.

This show is GREAT for anyone UNDER THE AGE OF TWO. It wasn't meant to be understood by anyone older than that. My daughter loved it when she was learning to walk and talk. It was happy, calm, bright colored, repetitive, musical all the things tiny babies love. I do not recommend this show for anyone OVER the age of two.

is it just randomness? i've actually watched a couple of shows and it just doesn't make any sense. i guess if you're a toddler and all you need is bright colors and people in mascot suits, then it's fine. but it doesn't seem to me to teach much of anything, but i guess that's not what it's out to do. i think it's pretty wierd, but if the little guys like it, why not?

I used to find the teletubbies one of the most idiotic forms of programming ever offered by television. Of course, that was before reality tv reached its zenith...

At worst, it's mildly weird. At best, it would be a good way to keep a toddler entertained. I never saw the harm in either of those two things.

I was afraid if I let my granddaughter watch this, she'd grow up talking like that.

this is one of the worst children programs i have ever seen but it does seem likable to the little ones. they seem to get bored with it rather quickly though

the sad thing is the purple one is gay.

I want to know why they have televisions in their stomachs. And why can't they use some sort of language? Kids need to learn englsh, not how long Tubbycustard takes in the microwave

PBS you cancelled the wonderful Mr. Rogers show for this. Even though he's dead now you could of though of a better kids show than this.

brain food for Clay Aiken fans.

the premise of the show is a slave master baby wakes up 5 retarted dwarves to constantly hug and grope each other and go off on little adventures if you can call them that. the writers were truly stoned.

This is the gayest thing I have ever seen in my life. What happened to kids shows actually speaking in English? It's day-glo creatures talking like retards.
Clayfreak24 10/28/2004
I dislike the program because they don't teach children much of anything. All they do is go Oooooooh. What is a child supposed to learn from that? Blue's Clues is great!! They are always coming up with science concepts,number concepts, and always complimenting children by saying how smart they are. Teletubbies doesn't do much of anything.

Less of a show and more of a freaky Pink Floyd video.
fantaci_babe 08/25/2004
if i was younger the teletubbies would look to me like creatures instead of cute. they literally would scare me. at least barney's a dinosaur. what the hell are teletubbies suppost to be? i will not let my future children watch that show. oOoXo ..::melody::..

There is so much innuendo in this show that one cannot help but speculate if this show is intended to brainwash the young viewers. I mean, A man teletubby with a purse and purple skin, the voice that tells them what to do seems like the voices people on drugs take ordrs from, etc. This is the kind of show i would expect to be a parody of other kids shows on snl or something. Sadly, it's not a spoof, it's the real thing.

watch out for the sun!!! It's a frickin BABY!!!! that screams and bawls all teh time!!!! and I swear one of those dolls they have out sounds like it says the other f word!!!

AAHH! NEXT TO BARNEY THIS HAS TO BE THE WORST SHOW EVER! DON'T EVEN USE THE WORD!
Asura 04/17/2004
Crap if you're not 3. Remember, target audiences don't care what a 25 year old thinks about it; THEY don't HAVE to watch it!
andyjay 01/31/2004
It's good if you're on something that makes you hallucinate. Oh, what am I saying, the entire dang show is a drug trip. Paging the Jefferson Airplane...
JonTheMan 01/04/2004
Not our best British import. I rather like the strange vaccum cleaner pet type thing who introduces a whole new dimension of intricately woven storylines, at least for a show aimed at pre-schoolers. Though, annoyingly, this show appears to follow the lazy route of having the various telletubbies demand Again! Again! in a shameless attempt to show the same (when the televisions engraved on their stomachs begin to activate) educational clip twice. Is this the high standards of the BBC, these days?! Why the cost-cutting Mr. Greg Dyke?! Eh?!
twinmom101 01/04/2004
Maybe I've said this in a previous post, but this is for babies and toddlers, not adults or teens. I see this show nearly every day and I find it silly and boring but my daughters just love it and there is logic behind what is going on. Obviously small children think differently than the rest of us and whoever created the show demonstrates a knowledge in infant cognitive development. So of course Teletubbies is annoying, unless you're two.

Oh these things give me the creeps. What exactly are they anyway?
StanUzbeck 01/03/2004
Of course it's crap. Its intended audience are those children who are still too young for preschool even. Anyone who can already speak in simple sentences will feel bored and patronized by the show. Little kids seem to enjoy it, so it can't be that bad a thing. At least the Teletubbies don't go around karate kicking each other.

My nephew used to watch this all of the time. I never got used to the freaky little critters jumping around and eating pancakes with happy faces on them.
OrwellAn 12/08/2003
Teletubbies? Awful?!?!?! People bouncing around in psychedelically coloured jump suits? A gurgling baby in the sun? Used to watch this in school at lunch time, highlight of the day! Is it true some states objected to Tinky Winky because he was gay? If that's not funny I don't know what is!

Can't sleep, teletubbies will eat me, Can't sleep, teletubbies will eat me, Can't sleep, teletubbies will eat me....
