Parenting triumphs are few and far between during the pandemic, but news that Caillou will no longer be on the air is being well-received by moms and dads far and wide.

PBS Kids announced on social media Tuesday that the much-maligned animated series, which has centered on its precocious 4-year-old namesake and his family for more than two decades, will be no more. The public television network even offered viewers coping tips on how to tell young fans about the cancellation. Instead of sadness, the news sparked cheers of snarky joy from adult detractors on social media.

Thank goodness, cheered Liza Cummings Reilly on Facebook. That little boy was so rude to his mom and disobedient. I didnt allow my kids to watch him because of that reason.

One mother commented that Caillou is an obnoxious, ridiculous excuse for a kids show. And yet another described the show as the most annoying thing on TV.

I remember thinking how boring it was as a kid. And also that the parents looked a lot like each other, which was weird.

Plus the format with the cloudy white border framing the screen was stupid.

Why way PBS even airing Caillou in the first place? What educational value does that show even have, besides teaching children how to be assholes?

Adults being snarky at kids shows will never cease to be the most annoying shit ever. Caillou was fine, and even if it wasn't, there's no reason for a grown-ass adult to celebrate its cancellation.

It's like, even considering that Barney was a shitty show that not even a lot of kids ended up liking, the hate it got from people outside of its demographic was the stupidest shit ever and the lengths people took to shit on it looks like the most limp-dick, insecure thing ever in hindsight.

It's kind of pathetic that there are grown adults who are gravedancing over a kid's cartoon for internet clout.

It did say that many parents felt that it taught the wrong values to their kids, and a lot of parents also watch these shows with their children.

That. As a kid, I hate that show because I could never understand why didn't his parents spank him when he did anything wrong? Put him in his place!

just because a show is aimed at kids doesnt mean it has to be awful
look at bubble guppies for example. that show is for little kids but it wont make parents who are forced to watch it want to claw their own eyes out
and the color song is really catchy

Caillou was the most milquetoast shit on the block. Kids didn't go bad from Caillou, those parents were just shit.

Great way to start off this year. All that kid did was cry until he got his way. Terrible thing to teach your kids. Being Quebecois explains why he's like that, at least.
