Also, why?

Banned shows:

  • Paw Patrol - Seems soulless, I haven't watched much, but there seems something very wrong about it. Intuitively, I feel like my kid shouldn't watch it (though, I can could be convinced I'm wrong, if I am)
  • Cocomelon - objectively soulless - don't try to convince me that this show is anything but toddler crack.

Approved:

  • Sesame Street
  • Bluey

Both of the above shows seem to me like they are made with care and have the best interests to teaching children good morals and language skills.

My kids are much older now, but we always supported them watching Dinosaur Train, in which the clearly independently wealthy Pteranodon family with their adopted son (a t-rex) go on a mysteriously large number of vacations via a maybe-magical train to visit other dinosaurs in various climates and time periods.

We also liked PBS’s Word Girl, which mixes superpowers and grammar with kind of a Rocky and Bullwinkle style humor.

We loathed Octonauts and especially Littlest Pet Shop, both of which, sadly, my kids really enjoyed.

Dinosaur Train is an objectively great show and the music in it SLAPS
