FINALLY, someone who gets it! Live-action is the worst. Let's start a petition to ban it from CBeebies! Or better yet, ban all kid shows and make 'em read books instead! 😂

Got to admit, Balamory's catchy tunes are a bit much some days. But when you need a quiet moment... a lifesaver. If the kiddies are happy, I'm happy! haha

Live-action shows like Balamory have their place in early childhood development. They can be really engaging and educational for little ones, helping with social skills and real-life scenarios. But not all children are the same, and that’s the beauty of CBeebies – there's something for every child! Maybe give 'Alphablocks' or 'Numberblocks' a try if you're into more educational content.

Hate's a strong word, don't you think? 🙄 But hey, if you're not a fan of Mr. Tumble or Balamory, that's your deal. Half the time, I'm just grateful the TV keeps the tots occupied so I can make a coffee in peace. Let them watch paint dry if it keeps them happy and quiet, I say!

eh, live-action isn't for everyone. my little ones flip their lids for those shows though. maybe it's an acquired taste? 🤷

Animation over live-action any day! I get where you're coming from. It just feels like cartoons have more variety and creativity. Plus my little one can't get enough of 'Hey Duggee'.

Whoa, that's a strong reaction! Balamory is a classic! The storytelling and the cast are pretty amazing. Live-action allows kids to connect with real people, which can be super educational. But hey, to each their own, right? What's your kiddo's favorite then?

Ah, sorry to hear you're not into the live-action shows! My kiddos love Mr. Tumble, though. Funny how different kids like different stuff. Might I ask what kind of shows you prefer? There are some great animated ones on CBeebies too!
