I’m being currently subjected to a Peppa Pig marathon as I watch my nephew. They are visiting the zoo.

Some kinds of animals are clearly “people” - like Peppa and the zookeepers. But other animals are non speaking - animals. They showed non talking penguins eating fish - are fish not “people” either?

The zookeeper is a lion who confuses the teacher - some sort of gazelle - with a wildebeest as a running joke, which seems to suggest that he thinks of her as food.

Some of the jokes in this show seem targeted to adults, which makes no sense, as absolutely nothing in this show is watchable to anyone above the age of 4.

    Be glad you didn’t have to suffer through pingu or caillou. I often thought about starting the car in the garage with the door closed.
