Remember Watch With Mother: The Next Generation? It was next in the Watch With Mother line of videos, except with new characters like The Herbs and Mary, Mungo & Midge. Well, for I.B.F.Fs, since Strange Hill High is taken off the air and I'm focusing on other things on CBeebies (except that acid trip Tik Tak) I present to you an idea I thought up while on the way to the hospital, based on my love for the five shows I took a liking to this year: I.B.F.Fs: A New Generation.
The 'New Generation' stories take a different turn from the original and follow the adventures of a young Sybil - that's me - and my friends Luke, Resus, Cleo, Luella, Six, Love Monster, Tiniest Fluffiest Bunny, Dog, Pug, Bluey, Bingo, Nothing, Hover and Feather as we live together in a friendly neighbourhood which is 'just near where you live'. We have adventures both in the town and in the rainforest where Nothing and her pride live, learning about accepting culture, friendship and diversity all while navigating the joys, fun and softness life can bring. Each of these stories is based on a Bluey episode and the alternate name I've given them, and some stories focus on African and Australian culture and homelands, as shown through the eyes of my friends Nothing and Bluey. Some stories had us playing tricks on the adults or following old folklore, mainly Sharptongue's folk tales. This'll replace The 'Hood for now because since we've entered the 2020's, it's a new generation for CBBC, CBeebies, ABC in Australia, Disney Junior and TribbleOfDoom, and since Scream Street, My Pride, Bluey, Love Monster and Dog Loves Books are my favourite series, I'll make them with my own perfect hands. Don't worry if I can't do the old I.B.F.Fs stories, I'll still do them as if Mitchell, Becky and Templeton are still with me - and I still have things to remember them by!
Look out for I.B.F.Fs: A New Generation stories next year!
