I have a problem with CBBC. Ever since the streaming era in 2019, horrid things have happened to the channel, its aesthetic, and its lineup, and due to more kids viewing streaming platforms, like BBC iPlayer for instance, day in day out, CBBC's programmes aren't as localised, grounded, rooted and low-stimulating as they were before. For example, some of CBBC's live action dramas now have the tones and hyperactivity of a Disney Channel or Nickelodeon sitcom, and almost their entire lineup is dominated by international cartoons, some of which are either CGI or Japanese anime, which some nostalgic parents believe were better on channels like Cartoon Network or Sky One rather than this channel.

So, if we all join hands and sign this petition, we can all encourage the BBC to de-Americanise CBBC and restore all their programmes, both animated and live action, to a slow-paced, calm, low stimulating, localised state.

Do it for all of our country's children!
