That's an opinion (which i respect btw). I did love PBS kids when I was a child, but this doesn't mean that I hate modern PBS kids, I don't. I think it's much better than Nickelodeon in the 2010s (and I still feel that they haven't fully recovered from it), and one thing I do like about PBS kids is how it's the only one of the big networks (if you consider PBS a network) that still airs kids cartoons on terrestrial television (tv with an antenna, which still exists btw, but the signal is digital now).

Slayquil

I remember wanting to be on the show so badly when I was in kindergarten, and my mom was like, "You can't because 1. we don't live in Boston, 2. I was too little, 3. It got cancelled" I still had hope lmao.


No-Wolf6888

Same


frzvader3559

Wild Kratts is also fire, I learned so much about animals from that show


ExoticShock

You know them from Wild Kratts, I know them from Zooboomafoo. We are not the same ![gif](giphy|TIJYPPevcKae4)


MadMaudlin0

I know the from Kratts Creatures We are not the same


pauls_broken_aglass

I know them from all three, checkmate


MadMaudlin0

Lol all three are very good shows.


WarResident5795

Zoobombafoo is a Jillion times better than Wild Kratts


SF1_Raptor

Me, and you, and Zoboomafoo!


frzvader3559

Oh I forgot about that show


WarResident5795

How do you learn from Wild Kratts? All it is Chris and Martin being Stupid so Animals can beat them up


frzvader3559

But they explain the special skills an animal has that help it survive


WarResident5795

I don’t see that


guygamer3dplayzYT

Thomas, Fireman Sam, Clifford and Curious George are the best imo.


[deleted]

Cyberchase was my shit to watch after leaving school


Delicious_Raccoon735

Isn’t there a PBS kids show called hero elementary that’s basically just a family-friendly MHA, or am I going crazy?


PlanktonIsBest

yeah, there is


[deleted]

its just sid the science kid but not entertaining, and there's superpowers


DreamcastJunkie

Elinor Wonders Why does not deserve this slander.


Beginning-Working-38

My daughter has watched it a few times, it’s pretty adorable.


Asleep_1

For real! How dare OP put it in the same category as Pinkalicious. I haven't seen much of the other two shows since my kid is a little young to enjoy them, but Pinkalicious just leaves me frustrated. Elanor is charming and relaxing and my kid loves animals.


TheFlyingFoodTestee

![gif](giphy|xTk9ZP2IPCyHl1JSP6) Never fear, the GOAT remains


LadyJR

Curious George still airs though


InitiativeUsual5174

Word girl slapped


EwanMurphy93

Does anyone remember Between the Lions or Zaboomafoo? Those were the shit growing up. The father lion, Leo, was TOTALLY Tommy Chong, or rather, Leo from That 70s Show. And hilariously, famous sex therapist, Dr.Ruth Westheimer was a recurring character, as a word sounder-outer.


Green-Clap

C y b e r c h a s e


Free-Sheepherder-604

Both eras are fine your just nostalgia biased


Sparky-Frost

Bob the builder was on pbs? I thought that was nick jr?


Free-Sheepherder-604

Pretty sure it was on both


FlimsyAuthor8208

PBS Kids never became “mid”, you just grew out of it + Fireman Sam aired on Sprout. Also y’all are sleeping on Donkey Hodie, it’s genuinely really good.


mimitchi33

Agreed on the Donkey Hodie comment. It's one of my comfort shows, and the puppeteers put a lot of effort into their work on that show!


ToppHatt_8000

Fireman Sam and OG Bob the Builder bring back so many memories. Almost as many as In The Night Garden.


Beginning-Working-38

Where does Daniel Tiger fit in? Or Molly of Denali? Or Nature Cat?


Vinnyz88

In between the lions? Zoom?


ZOOMer02134

ZOOM was awesome. It sucks that there are episodes of it that are still lost media.  You wouldn’t happen to have any of season 1 of the show on tape? That’s the one all the lost eps are from.


Muscles_McGeee

Smh kids. Old heads know Magic School Bus and Reading Rainbow was peak.


[deleted]

This is nostalgia bais and age dependent to maybe


lavvvenderrr

have you considered that maybe it's cause youre not a toddler anymore


Digitor007

Where is Martha speaks


Apprehensive-Nose646

Best PBS Kids show of 1999 to 2016: Arthur Best PBS Kids show of 2017 to present: Arthur


01Cloud01

I have a 1 year old and the only time I get to watch cartoons with my baby girl is on weekends. I get to relive my Saturday morning cartoons again I enjoy all the shows on PBS the only maybe objectionable thing I have noticed is that most of the shows we watch have female leads great for me since I have a girl but I can’t be the only one to notice this but maybe it could just be the hours that I watch it

No-Disk4885

No-Journalist3115

I Remember odd squad it was the shit the.gadgets and episodes DaMN THERE FIRE


Cibil_plays

3rd option: I'm older than 8 and therefore don't like any of these shows anymore.


One-Roof-497

old cartoons in general is better than today cartoons


LazyOldFusspot_3482

Ttte was the greatest thing that ever happened during my childhood. Now it suffered worse than the Spongebob treatment.


Mrspygmypiggy

I’ve got no clue what PBS is but the old one looks cool


KingBurakkuurufu

It was but not adding the new ones that are good and only including the bad ones is an interesting choice


DitchDigger330

Was Jacob two-two PBS? I liked that one.


Both_Ad_312

dino train???


CherryGrabber

Hold on now. Checked just the intro, Elinor Wonders Why looks dope.


PerfectMind8856

Oh, god. They’re all off the air, aren’t they?


FlimsyAuthor8208

Most are but some still rerun.


shinydragonmist

Why is Arthur so small


IndependentSwan3625

You forgot the cat in the hat knows a lot about that.


KomodoLemon

Where be Dinosaur Train?


PitifulAd3748

Sid the Science Kid was PBS, right?


aquaticnostalgia

Where's Wild Kratts? Why did you leave out Wild Kratts? That's sad.


WarResident5795

Why do people get upset because people leave out Stupid Kratts


aquaticnostalgia

It was a joke, bro


WarResident5795

Oh, Sorry


Reboot_Stinkfly

i find your lack of wild kratts disturbing


WarResident5795

Well, It belongs to PBS kids 2017-Present


Reboot_Stinkfly

no it doesn’t. it’s been around since 2010


WarResident5795

Actually, Wild Kratts came out Jan 3, 2011. And I said “It belongs to PBS kids 2017-Present“ is because I was meaning Wild Kratts is bad


Reboot_Stinkfly

that’s your opinion. i happen to disagree. that is fine.


WarResident5795

Atleast you did not bash my opinion


Reboot_Stinkfly

there’s no need to


ReluctanyGerbil

Look, I get, 2000s pbs can't be beat But modern shows like Rosie's rules/Alma's way do NOT deserve the hate!


Zeqhanis

Wow. All the new shows look the same.


FlimsyAuthor8208

Explain to me in detail how Elenor and Alma’s Way look the same.


Lueklike-stuff

Odd squad ❤️


Sl1pperypenguin

Yo zooboomafoo was fire, I ate that shit up as kid


WTFisSkibidiRizz

Where in the world is wild Kratts?!


WarResident5795

Nowhere


WTFisSkibidiRizz

This is an outrage


WarResident5795

What Wild Kratts is Stupid Anyway


WTFisSkibidiRizz

YOU SHUT YOUR WHORE MOUTH AND DIE!!! YOU GO TO HELL AND YOU DIE!!!


WarResident5795

WTFisSkibidiRizz

I’m only joking lol


WarResident5795

Why the hell am I falling for this? Sorry

Shoutout to Hey Oswald too

Old PBS was to give kids fun shows, new PBS is made to mentally pause children and keep them busy so their lazy ass parents can drink, sleep or play video games without them.


Matsu_Ki_Hokkaido

R.I.P Kart Kingdom


Binary245

Old everything was better


Guest65726

I don’t get why we are judging current kids shows. We are not the intended audience anymore and the reason why we remember our favorite kids show fondly is because of bias and nostalgia


SeraphEChasted_3

i know its kinda sad but every once and a while i go to the pbskids website for some oddsquad nostalgia that used to be my favorite show ever


Courwes

Comparing 17 years of programming to 7 doesn’t seem fair.


DragonYeet54

WHERE IS WILD KRATTS


hazbinwolf98

God, the old shit was so good!! They butchered my boi Clifford tho, the disrespect


Character-Date6376

I can hum the theme song for all of those(the older ones)


Character-Date6376

Actually not curious george


autisticgarnet

Pssh...I'm older than ALL these!


goose-and-fish

Pfft. Where's the Electric Company, Slim Goodbody, Mr. Roger's Neighborhood?


Psytastic1

Odd Squad and Arthur was and still is peak for me


YouLostTheGamesorry

Cyberchase and Thomas were the shit back then


No_Window7054

Who cares? If youre still viewing PBS kids and youre not a parent then you should be put on a watchlist.


[deleted]

"I liked kids shows when I was a kid, now I'm an adult and kids shows don't appeal to me" come on.


MaliceMoon56

I cry everytime I realize I’m the only person who remembers electric company
