Parents issued warning as ‘best kids show’ due to leave Amazon Prime Video

Parents have been issued a warning as one of the best children’s TV programmes is set to leave Amazon Prime Video in less than 30 days.

Peppa Pig quickly became a phenomenon when it first hit screens in 2004, and has even gone on to spark breaking news announcements on the likes of Good Morning Britain.

The animated cartoon follows Peppa, a young piglet, her brother George, Daddy Pig, Mummy Pig and lots of her anthropomorphic friends.

Since it began, Peppa has taken the world by storm and is being broadcast in more than 180 countries.

With each episode lasting for around five minutes, it follows Peppa learning new skills, making friends and playing, with most installments ending with Peppa and her friends falling over laughing.

As well as teaching children about friends and manners, the long-running series has captivated toddlers, keeping them entertained for hours.

But it’s not only parents who have raved about the beloved kid’s programme, but those taking a look back at their own childhood.

One person said: “This show is astonishing. I have grew up watching this show and all I can think of when I hear those two words “peppa pig” is MEMORIES of me loving there admiration for jumping up and down in muddy puddles.”

Another passionate reviewer wrote: “This show, no, this masterpiece, has flooded my mind with thought and astonishment. Countless hours I have spent pondering the fabric and creation of this program. Peppa Pig may be the greatest sight I have ever laid eyes on.”

One said: “Lovely lessons, gentle stories. My granddaughter has enjoyed Peppa from very tiny toddler and still watches them at 7 yrs old. The lessons on friendship are so important. It is so creative the way they use all the different animal characters.”

“I genuinely enjoy this show. I love that the characters and story lines are very family oriented and that they deal with real life situations. To me, it teaches my almost 3 yr old how people should react in what could be potentially high stress situations. Everyone is always calm and talks things through with each other. As a Mom, I love that she sees a family relating to each other that way,” a fourth said.

Despite its roaring success these days, one of the stars of the show, Daddy Pig, previously revealed bosses were once concerned about people “getting on board with it”.

Celebrating 20 years of the show in 2004, voice actor Richard Ridings told Metro that he had no idea of the phenomenon the show would become.

“At the time I thought a family of pigs was a bit weird,” he began. “But as soon as you see it, you get it, and hear the script and how witted they are, it does make sense.”

He added: “I thought, I wanted to be involved even if it was tiny, but who could imagine it being so big across the world.”

Peppa Pig is available to watch on Amazon Prime Video.
