British brainwashing

Grayson Jackson
No, the screen just appears blank.
Thomas Wood
This was better.
Michael Thomas
I have no fucking clue, I caught an episode one time ages ago on CN’s baby block that didn’t last a year and thought nothing of it. Now it’s the modern day Tellytubbies
Charles Jackson
Tie-in comics from IDW when?
Ryder Gomez
Is it still? I thought it was dying out.
Noah Hill
Of course, it's very halal.

Leo Young
It's aimed at very young children, that means more merchandising potential
Camden Green
that CHRUM every third word is really distracting
Nathan Myers
>$4 billion
u fucking wot m8
That's like what Disney paid for Lucasfilm and all of Star Wars.
Isaac Morales
It says in the article. It's very popular in China.
Elijah Martin
for disney it's spare change
Bentley Lopez
It amuses me way too much that american parents are so shitty and neglectful that a number of american born and raised children pick up british accents because they get sat in front of this show all day
Daniel Bailey
I don't see why not, it's not like they're eating her.
Mason Sanders
Good. Maybe they'll stop misspelling aluminium.
Brandon Kelly
Imagine a G4 MLP-like reboot of Peppa Pig. I can see this board being overrun by PigBros already.
Levi Sanchez
you dont know what MLP Gen4 made popular in the first place.
Evan Gray
They are bad parents because their children learned proper English instead of mutt speech?
Landon Morgan
>british english
>not mutt speech
Carson James
It's literally a psyop
Easton Gray
Most of its humor is nihilistic, only more kid-friendly. It's appealing for the younger generation.
Grayson Walker
no and that's why it's based. peppa pig is a part of the greater trend of rising white identity.
Connor Thomas
It gets Richard Ridings a steady wage so I'm alright with it.
Adrian Young
Jason Kelly
Sir Humphry Davy called it aluminum and that's good enough for us. (He couldn't help it that the Frenchies of IUPAC decreed to add the "i" to the name he gave it.)
Easton Perez
Because it uses an actual child as the voice actor of Peppa, and it shows relatable scenes for a toddler. It's just a simple slice of life show that follows the life of a normal family through the eyes of a child. Since the characters are animals, it's easy for a kid of any ethnicity to relate to the characters.
It's no different how an adults see shows where they find relatable characters. Of course an adult can't understand the appeal of Peppa since Peppa is truly created for toddlers, giving them life lessons that are easy to understand. The character designs are simple in purpose because it's targeted at kids whose brains aren't still developed enough for more complex shapes, so they find it enjoyable to watch.
Basically, Peppa is South Park for toddlers.

Disney has lied about making money this whole time
Luke Turner
please stop
David Wright
The show ever-so-gently mocks the hypocrisy that adults invoke in dealing with their children.
In a society where children throughout history are expected to blindly follow parents' instruction without question, this enables kids to ever-so-gently call them out when they do their parents do the same.
Plus, I want to see just what new job Miss Rabbit will have next.
Blake Russell
I don't think you understand Disney's position.
A corporation, especially a publicly traded one, demands profits. Constant profits with no possible downturn. It doesn't matter if you're on top you need to constantly be bigger and better and raking in money like nobodies business. The money you made last time doesn't matter unless you pay dividends or spend it to make more money.
Disney as a result needs to constantly expand in ways that are unsustainable or infeasible. Hence why they rushed out Galaxies edge like three years after opening their biggest park ever in Shanghai and are already planning even more expansions while Marvel is making twice as many movies as five years ago and Lucasfilm launched into annual releases with no buildup.
Disney HAS to spend that kind of money because the money is meaningless to them otherwise.
Gavin Young
>why is it so popular with kids??
Because the real trick is that it's popular with parents who don't mind putting it on. There's lots of adult jokes that will go right over the kids heads
Jason Gomez
Capitalism apologists defend this?
Jonathan Rivera
That deal was incredibly cheap and I'm still shocked Lucas agreed to it
Oliver Wright
>inb4 shitty american redubs
Dylan Rivera
Capitalism is literally forever hunger
Jason Rogers
Holy shit I loved this shit so much!
Jacob Edwards
No you. You can hem and haw all about ebonics and french influence but american english is linguistically closer to "proper" than any islander shit.
Robert James
Based
Richard Ridings is a god tier VA
William Kelly
Because they'll watch literally anything
William Morris
Because he was still getting paid by the Fox deal.
Xavier Clark
It's funny, it's non-violent, it's self-aware, I love it. It's a good choice for children. Only brainlets who haven't watched it shit on it.
Bentley Bell
>tfw an animator
>been producing an animation for over a year now with detail
>deep down feel that even if it gets 1-3 million views, in that time frame I could animate something like peppa 10 times over easily, and probably make a lot of money
>other animation channels are doing that like frame order/pencilmations
I'm really tempted to just switch over to this.
Owen Hughes
I fixed it. Don't thank.
Isaiah Butler
Me too I own the blu-ray
William Thompson
>Peppa Pig nihilistic
How so?
Julian Jones
It's no nonsense fluff that parents can leave on for their kids for hours at a time.
Also easy merchandise.
Angel Gomez
>"do you think there's a magic wizard who appears out of nowhere and prepares our breakfast?"
>"Yes!"
Nathaniel Morgan
>it’s the modern day Tellytubbies
Except the writing can be based, at times.

Daily reminder that the Peppa Pig creator studied animation along with Nick Park, and he almost won a Oscar
