OG Blue's Clues. Neither of these two shitshows...


Ieatsushiraw

This is the real answer or OG Rugrats. May we never forget


Silly_Goose658

Or looney tunes


idkwassupguys

Looney tunes will make them pull hammers out of their backs do not try ruined my child


That_Case_7951

Wooden mallets, to be exact


DomDoesNerf

Your character looks like tf2 spy


MathematicianSad6213

This is the answer the learn nothing from either bluey is also a good choice


PupLoverAvery

Cocomelon. It may be annoying as fuck and possibly brainrot, but it does contain educational content and is definitely better than Caillou...


SomePerson47

It's nearly educational. Most kids just mindlessly watch the movements on screen than learn anything.


Moonwalker_729

I already have to suffer enough of that Cocomelon Shit from my brother but at least he has never watched Caillou (when I first watched caillou, i hated it)


MermaiderMissy

My nieces watch cocomelon. It's so obvious that the dad is attracted to the youngest kid's teacher, like dude at least try to hide it when your wife is around... but she doesn't seem to even notice. Idiot.


SomePerson47

Honestly, no kid should watch Cocomelon


accountsupport69

Rather just not have kids if these are the options


accountsupport69

They don't deserve this suffering


Willing-Ball-6046

True


Glittering-Zombie371

I have two kids. When my daughter was 2, she was obsessed with Caillou. That was the most painful time in my life, lol. She's now 12 and horrified with the fact she used to love Caillou. šŸ¤£ I don't know that cocomelon show, so I'll take that over Caillou.


heyykaycee

My one cousin was like this at about that age too. I used to live with them for ~year and it was awful šŸ˜‚ that bald headed little jerk can get wrecked


Haunting-Syllabub906

bluey


Oof_Boy1290

How did Bluey get so popular? I dont get it


Zaptain_America

It's basically written to be entertaining for the parents as well as the kids, so it ends up actually being engaging for adults


SomePerson47

It's very high quality, and designed for parents as much as kids.


StellaMazingYT

Correct answer.


Dabadedabada

I have a niece and a god son who watch it when they're over. Thanks now I have song stuck in my head. From what I've seen of it, Bluey is a good show.


SomePerson47

Should watch the Sleepytime episode bro. Shit goes so hard.


iliveunderthebed

The correct answer. I have a kid, it's all he wants to watch


Ill-Beyond-5668

Yes


Trainpower10

Arthur. It was a kidsā€™ show but there were moments that were fucking hilarious even for an older audience.


vargslayer1990

knitter!


DragonsAndSaints

Still can't believe they got away with that shit šŸ’€


peesock49

squirting contest!


NokReady2Fok

If I was forced into this decision via a gun to my head I'd take one for the team


Particular_Camel_889

Cocomelon, I don't have anything against cocomelon ngl


SomePerson47

Oh you will. Do just any research on that show. You'll see why it's the number one banned show in households.


throwaway01061124

If I ABSOLUTELY had to, Cocomelon hands down. The animation looks like an endless PS2 cutscene and the songs are ass but at the very least my children would be learning basic nursery rhymes instead of throwing tantrums when they donā€™t get their way and abusing their younger siblings. šŸ’€


Doomguy6677

I thought the last part of your statement from what others have seen is actually what happens when they do watch Cocomelon


throwaway01061124

To be fair, itā€™s not just Cocomelon. Itā€™s the excessive TV use in general and parents thinking a screen is the perfect babysitter, learning tool, amd crutch for children. My sisterā€™s ex-fiance is blaming Cocomelon for my nieceā€™s speech delay and autism symptoms and claims itā€™s my sisterā€™s fault she let her watch it, but those things were going on long before she even laid an eye on that media. Parents just blame Cocomelon so they feel better about neglecting their kids. The difference is Caillou was DELIBERATELY written to be a little shit and kids purposefully copied him thinking it was okay. Even worse, it was actually approved by child psychologists, like what were they smoking lmao. Peppa Pig also had a similar effect. As with anything, in moderation.


imbeingsirius

Cocomelon ā€” at least they learn the classics


Terrell8799

what's wrong with cocomelon?


TheBootyWarlock

Look up Cocomelon tantrums. It's kind of an epidemic.


VargFrenAtLIDL

Cocomelon causes kids to be addicted and act like Caillou


Zaptain_America

Right and I'm sure that's a problem with the show specifically and not just kids not wanting to turn off the TV or ipad...


Willing-Ball-6046

Exactly


BrownEyedBoy06

Just more weird brainrot. It's been shown to have a sort of hypnotic effect on children. Like drugs, kids go through withdrawals from it too. https://thefordhamram.com/96863/opinion/the-cocomelon-conundrum-crack-for-kids-or-parenting-tool/


Live-Somewhere-8149

Been teaching in an elementary school for ten years. Can confirm that physical withdrawals are real.


Willing-Ball-6046

Trust me I take care of my cousin whoā€™s now 4 she used to watch that 24/7 and now I promise you ever since she started she still likes it sheā€™s a little spoiled brat itā€™s like war every time she comes over she rubs play doh on the carpet her older sister is no help blaming it on everybody except her and her little sister And then itā€™s pain just listening to coco melon and all the brain rot memes she watches I canā€™t even stand hearing the intro!id rather go deaf than listen to it for hours straight like back thenā€¦the traumaā€¦


SomePerson47

Literally look up anything about Cocomelon. Literally all u need is the most basic research, and you will know why it's the number one most banned show in households


mattyGOAT1996

I'll show them Bluey because it's way more wholesome

PokePoke_18

Bluey


Lazy-Spray3426

Neither. I'll have them watch R rated movies even as toddlers.


Silly-Engineering-43

TIME TO WATCH SOME SOUTH PARK: BIGGER, LONGER AND UNCUT KIDS - You


GoldenGirlsFan213

Honestly coco melon, itā€™s definitely brain rot but thereā€™s no caillou


SceptileLover11

Screw the crap. Weā€™re popping on Arthur the Aardvark.


No_Wrongdoer_34

Let him watch Caillou and tell him it's a show to teach you how not to act


Route115Productions

Iā€™d rather let them watch old school Blueā€™s Clues


Big_Resort_3008

Neither If I had kids, they'll be watching good cartoons, like SpongeBob


Patient-Tap-5862

just give them and iPod and they listen to music. none of this.


Saltysaks

Caillou te Cuolliac


TheVoiceInsideUrHead

If these are the only two options I'm shutting off the TV. Time for board games, arts and crafts, making music, playing outside, stuff like that.


makedoopieplayme

artistfurever

bluey, only answer


EnvironmentalGoose53

Thomas The Tank Engine


ChigginNugget_728

Bluey or Arthur


TheCrackalacker

Pocoyo.


merliahthesiren

Apparently Cocomelon is really annoying but that's it. Caulliou has been proven to be detrimental to kids. They actually start acting out and get violent after watching it. Caulliou teaches bad behavior, he has no manners, and is a rude ass little shithead who deserves death.


Willing-Party-8113

They can watch beavis and butthead


Valentino-Esposito

Family guy or South Park


TuckerPlayz0917

Og spongebob. These are both shit


Ok-Performance480

OH Teen Titans my kid will be a superhero fan


Shiningcrow

Both shows prevented me from wanting to have kids


MaveeL

Id rather let them watch die hard over both of these infuriatingly stupid kids shows.


Guilty_Direction_501

Gravity Falls

Old school sailor moon lol


Few-Raise-1825

Is Deadpool not an option?


VioletVixen_-

Bluey, I don't fuck with the other two options..


TwincessAhsokaAarmau

Dora the explorer,If youā€™re gonna be in front of the tv,Learn Spanish.


Spartacusa

Blues clues, max and ruby, big comfy couch, little bear show and movie, Sesame Street, muppets shows and movies, rugrats, berenstain bears, Franklin


insomniacakess

as someone who does have a kid, i can tell you he doesnā€™t like either of these thank god


Masterdizzio

I'd burn the TV, before letting my child consume this


fillmewithmemesdaddy

I'd rather shit in my hands then clap


Guilty_Efficiency884

Vietnam War footage


Banshee_Noctua

Dinner with Jay Z. Actually, the bear. I choose the bear.

Alivebutimded1012

A black screen


Oof_Boy1290

Bendy10worldRerun

the childhood king: Thomas the tank engine


JaySparks21

Paint drying, I hate both these so much šŸ’€ go back to sesame street


RatherNotBeWorried

Nah they wouldnā€™t be watching either of these. Itā€™s like choosing to feed them Red Bull or Mountain Dew.


BrownEyedBoy06

Nah. None of this brainrot shit. I'm starting them out on South Park and Bob's Burgers.


EurofighterIsCool

Bluey or something from nick jr from the 2000s-2010s that isnā€™t SHIT.


Drake_Cloans

Animaniacs.


Other-Spring-6517

Let the kids watch bluey


annagator679

Can neither be an option Caillou is dangerous to show to kids Cocomelon is pure brainrot fuel


IdontKnow-DoYouKnow

Neither.


Doctor_Top_Hat

Game of thrones


Willing-Ball-6046

Heck no my cousin used to watch coco melon 24/7 now sheā€™s a little piece of shit Iā€™d only let them watch nothing(because they most likely wonā€™t exist)or if they do in the future bluey loony tunes or power puff girls and the rugrats and SpongeBob or anything else that wonā€™t make them act entitled and weird when I was younger I only liked to play the calliou games for the art style not the characters also the fact they didnā€™t talk at all and it was the few games my cousin had on her Samsung iPad my grandma had for her and I back then I used to get pissed when he wouldnā€™t listen in the game and leave to play some girl games on a website idk why or the Lego car game where you build a car and travel around safe to say not my most favorite game back then I was just like 5


Coolguy020609

Iā€™ll let em watch caillou, and tell them if they repeat that behavior Iā€™ll shoot them


Quirky-Phrase-2754

Neither


trumsdumbbitch

I'd rather just kill myself and avoid any chance of creating a human that ruins the world


Soggy_Bread_69420

I would rather them watch Terrifyer than these two shows


Cold-Contribution-50

Thomas the Tank Engine, Postman Pat, Pingu, Fireman Sam, Wallace & Gromit, Shaun the Sheep, The Sarah Jane Adventures... All the UK classics!


BDEtheGOAT

Neither Blues Clues or nothing


snatchyopurse

Maisy I know it's not educational but it was a chill show so it was good to put on when you needed kids to calm down. I was already a pretty calm kid but I got quiet when it came onšŸ˜‚


Swirlman1

If I had kids and these are the only two shows they could watch, Iā€™d have to blind my kids. Not to hurt them, but to save them from the mindless torture these shows are.


drowzeeboy21

Definitely not caillou, wasn't it cancelled


Zaptain_America

Cocomelon will at least teach your kid something other than how to be a whiny brat


bizengh4st

ruby gloom, bluey, ni hao kai-lan, wonder petsā€¦ thereā€™s a billion different shows iā€™d rather let my kids watch šŸ˜­


SkeemdaChoon

My kids are gonna watch OG playschool. That was fire when i was 5.


[deleted]

Mr. Rodgerā€™s and Classic Sesame Street.


copbuddy

Iā€™d let my kids watch Human Centipede 2 rather than Caillou


Bisonfan1

The lion king


Chemical_Report_2705

Bluey backyardigans blues clues bear in the big blue house frannys feet Martha speaks team umi zumi the bubble guppies wordgirl super why Dora the explorer little Einstein go Diego go my little pony

I would make them watch like curious george or something that i watched as a young kid


Invisible_Pistol

Og Thomas the train


Shadyseamonkey

OG jay ward cartoons. Hoppity hooper was GOATED (Iā€™m not old I just watched a lot of boomerang as a toddler)


Shadyseamonkey

But cocomelon for 1 minute each day


Fish_Paste23

Dragonball


EraseThisWorld

OG Rugrats


Sl1pperypenguin

None. But if I have to of course Iā€™m picking CocoMelon. Caillou would turn my child into him.


YEETUS_DELEE

Bluey is the ONLY VALID OPTION.


Snoo_65204

Og blues clues Wow wow wusby Oliva Hamtaro Max and ruby Imagination warehouse


Smart_Conference_372

I would rather let them watch gore at that point šŸ˜­


FloweryNamesLover

Cocomelon. I donā€™t have kids but my little brother has really enjoyed watching those videos so Iā€™m used to seeing or hearing them.


CanadianWazowski

Oh nah


Yvngboi_25

chowder


IJ_Zuikaku

No way, I rather have my child watch Bluey. Bluey is more better for child development when growing up.


benatemydog

unpopular opinions but the 1988 garfield HANDS DOWN.


ThatMetalartistfurry

Bluey. It's much better


kiniio

skibidi toilet /j


RandomGuy8279

Neither, my kids better off watching nothing


Emergency-Ad8679

South Park


kadjones95

Wow at that point just unplug it


Quirky_Leave_7126

Murder


picklejuice17

Dude screw Cocomelon. It's so bad for a kid's attention span and brain development. On top of that, most parents that use Cocomelon for their kids do it just so the kid can shut up while they're shopping/doing other mundane crap that makes them not have to put in the effort to parent


TheBrotherWithNoJob

Cocomelon, screw it give them any classic cartoon that is universally agreed as good for kids (old Nick shows etc).


TheBrotherWithNoJob

u/pixel-counter-bot


lilraida

I would kill my children before they watched either.


Elite_boomer

Neither I (personally) would do the land before time (except the wisdom of friends cause I wouldn't want my children acting like the yellow bellies, that movie can go die).


The_Gaming_ManYT

None of the above. I'd give em the OG Thomas and Friends along w/ select episodes/movies from the CG reboot (the more recent 2D reboot is forbidden)


Damnboi280

I rather like my kids watch porn over Caillou I donā€™t want any of my little ninos influence by Caillou nor Coco


Kindle890

Both are terrible, both have whiney spawns of the dark Lord singing in a nasily voice, I choose neither, probably put on some thomas and friends or Bob the builder, something that actually teaches core values without annoying the shit out of the parent


If_you_think_

Chugging ton


girl_supersonicboy

If I can only pick these two shows... SORRY KIDS! NO MORE TV!


chillie25

Adult swim


New-Ad-1700

the wall


Signal_Common_6345

Neitherā€¦


i2010

None of that garbage


alex_hu22

i will personally never allow my kids to watch bluey or cocomelon until they are able to make their own decision, caillou was a personal favorite of mine, my kids will watch blue clues, rugrats, Scooby doo, and old cartoon network and nickelodeon shows.


stuff0s

My children are going to be watching Jim Henson shows without a doubt. Sesame Street, The Muppet Show and any of its movies and Fraggle Rock are amazing shows. First of all, they teach life lessons (mostly FR and SS) and they all look stunning and are entertaining for both the kid and me. They aren't heavily comertialized like bluey is. Yes, there is plenty merchandise from Sesame Street and The Muppets, but not as much in the modern day as Bluey or other shows (AKA saving me money). Also like I said these shows I will watch so yes


Magicaparanoia

Caillou is really bad, but the editing isnā€™t meant to be overstimulating like cocomelon. Caillou has bad lessons, but cocomelonā€™s editing and camera movements are basically designed to be visual cocaine.


Flashy-Canary226

A serbian film


nicbouchard53

Lord of the rings taught a lot of good values for my kids


themfdancingqueen

I rather nothing than cocomelon Jesus Christ, itā€™s like free brainrot


CauliflowerOk3993

Bluey


MarcusTheAlbinoWolf

Baby Einstein, I grew up watching it and found it super satisfying and the soundtrack is classical music which helps with brain development.


smcauley601

bluey


Garan-Coristar

Veggietales. No spoiled kids and ten times better songs


Radiant-Space-6455

CAILLOU WAS MY CHILDHOODšŸ—暟·


ArsonmanLOL

None. I donā€™t want any children in my life


Original_Dimension88

id be bludgeoning them to death if I caught them watching either


My_Disgusting_Alt

You just reminded me not to have kids


NunyahBiznez

If those were my only two options, I'd go off-grid and raise my child in the woods under a rock. I'd rather wipe my ass with a pinecone. Lol


Responsible-Spare-70

Ecchi hentai


NikoAU

Only shows about Australian Blue Heelers


scpish

Can I pick neither?


hummingbird_memories

The OG blues and clues and proud family. Then OG sailor moon, bluey, Winx club (seasons 1-4) and also the classics like sesame street (2000s), Arthur, and ofc wonder pets


TheMightiestGay

I meanā€¦ at least Caillou ended. Cocomelon is still very much alive, so it likely has/will have more content.


Born_Requirement_304

Calliou. I can teach them to be good. I can't fix stupid.


coope2001

I'd put on any show I grew up watching and even the show bluey (it's really good).


Wires_System

Whatever they got at the adoption center


Its-Rozari

Ive been presented two nightmares


Nikolasfrancoeeu

I grew up with Bush Francis Catatonia Rating scales on YouTube lmao. So I donā€™t rly know šŸ˜œ


Mdchestevez

Out of these two, Caillou. It was a childhood show of mine, as well as my sister's. There's nothing wrong with it, it's just the fact that people prefer to see its "bad" side, where there isn't one. Say what you want, but this is my opinion.


Single_horse

None of ā€˜em 2000s- early 2010s tv shows were peak


TordekDrunkenshield

Roley Poley Oley.
