Okay, before you go any further to say, "...because their creepy," pay attention to this.


I've heard many people say that they hate Teletubbies or they just don't like it. Yeah, I have no problem with because I hate a lot of other things on TV, too. Only thing I'm upset about, everyone keeps saying it over and over again, even going to the point to calling it a "horror movie". I mean, what the heck? It seems too me that people just have problems with it a bit too much. It's sadly underrated, misunderstood, and everyone thinks that the Teletubbies are "babbling morons". Well, I was just recently scrolling through the reviews for Teletubbies on IMDB. According to its rating of 2.8, which is pretty much sad, only a quarter of the people their "loved it". Most of them hated it. However, while I was scrolling through some of the "love it" reviews, I found one good one in particular. Here's what they said:

"I admit it, I am 17, but I loved this when I was a kid. Loved, loved, loved it! I thought it was really cute, and I still do. I think people need to bear in mind this is a show for preschoolers, and not only did me and my siblings love this when we were kids, but we have close friends that love it too. And I do not think it is the worst kids show ever, that belongs to Shaggy and Scooby Doo:Get a Clue, that is unwatchable. I admit that this show isn't really educational, but as I have said already it's cute. And what's this about the characters not speaking properly? True, they don't, but none of the characters on Pingu speak properly and I don't see anybody bashing that show. Don't get me wrong, I ADORE Pingu, all I am trying to say is that Teletubbies isn't the first show to have characters that don't speak properly. Not only does the baby sun look sweet, but I never got nightmares from watching this. Teletubbies looks colourful, and the characters are cute, especially Po. The music is nice too. All in all, good misunderstood fun for preschoolers."

Whoever this person is has a good point because I bet if the world was run by Teletubbies (which may sound kinda creepy), they would all think we're the "babbling morons" because they can't understand us. It's like an American guy coming up to a Chinese guy and teasing because supposedly all he speaks is "Ching Chang Chong". Well, it may seem like that too you, but it's a lot more complicated than that, somewhat similar to your fellow English language and pretty much all the languages in the world. Another thing that I find irritating, is that a lot of people say that they have nightmares about it, and say they hated it even when they were a baby. First of all, let me get this straight, you don't know that because you hardly remember anything when you were a baby. Also, babies don't really develop hatred towards things at an early age. I'm not saying they don't have feelings. In fact, they may have more feelings than we ever can. Yeah, they might get upset every once in awhile because so and so did this or that, but they don't form a deep grudge against that person. If so, you have one angry baby.    Anyways, point is, I liked Teletubbies, which is why I'm upset with this generation talking badly about one of my favorite childhood shows. I always found them to be interesting, if not educational, with their everyday antics. Roaming around freely in the grassy hills, eating tubby toast and tubby custard, just doing what they like to do (like us). Is there anything wrong with that?

I know this might seem like a weird topic to start, and I already started something similar to it before, but it's regarding why people shouldn't hate on them too much this time. Anyways, if any of you agree, tell me so and tell me why. I'd highly appreciate your opinion on this matter.
