10 Things I'll Talk About With The Pool Group If I Visited The 147 Club Today

10.Me & Winnie The Pooh.
It's a delightful new slow paced CGI series introducing you to a new world of Pooh and his friends Tigger and Piglet. Most of the CGI series on Disney Junior is really fast paced, but not with this and Playdate With Winnie The Pooh.
9.Caring Comfort: Fishing By The River.
In Caring Comfort, Furaha and her foster family live a life both wild and royal. The other people at the Pool Group would love to live a life like Furaha, running around the river, splashing their friends and fishing with their mouths and sharp lion teeth! Rawr.
8.Arctic Wonderland.
This is a new idea I thought up, featuring Furaha, Orko and Optimus Prime living in the wilderness of the Arctic. They don't mind the cold one bit, and enjoy playing in the snow and exploring their surroundings every day, from doing what you do on snowy days like making snow angels and having snowball fights, to sliding in the snow and interacting with the other wild residents of the Arctic - not that I'm saying they're into wild parties, but I meant the wild animals like polar bears, seals, walruses. Everyone at The 147 Club will love hearing my tales of Arctic freedom.
7.Teletubbies - Po's Fall Down Day.
This happens to be my favourite segment in Here Come The Teletubbies, where Po spends a day falling over and saying "Oh dear," afterwards, worrying the other Teletubbies. Whatever part of the day she experiences, such as eating breakfast, playing on the control panel or playing catch with La-La's ball, she falls over. The first half of the segment includes simple fade in transitions, which might be better if accompanied by the narrator saying things like 'Later, at breakfast...' or '10 minutes later...'. In the second half, Tinky Winky witnesses Po falling over and decides to join her. Soon, the other Teletubbies join, and everyone's enjoying a falling down day. Sometimes I want to fall down from lack of sleep!
6.Toonami's December 2002 Lineup.
When I was 2 years old, overseas the new He Man and Transformers Armada series premiered on Toonami. You know, the block on Cartoon Network with the robotic host TOM and his artificially intelligent British-accented computer program sidekick SARA, before it moved to Adult Swim and started lazily repeating reruns of My Hero Academia. Oh my god, Turner, will you ever learn to control your kids' shows?! Anyway, everyone in the Pool Group will love hearing about Toonami's December 2002 lineup - both halves and the Transformers Armada marathon - especially when Toonami got disrupted that Christmas by CN's 24 Hour Christmas Party, which was good because Adult Swim was disgusting and horrible. Let's all give the finger to Adult Swim, please!
5.CBeebies 'You've Got This' posters.
Sure, CBeebies has grown up, and Bluey doesn't fit, but of course these lift posters will brighten anyone's mood. Featuring Bluey and Hey Duggee, they will brighten any parent's day - and maybe even stop tantrums whenever the kids spy a bright pink unicorn cookie in the shopping centre! Everyone in the Pool Group would think this is a super idea, but I STILL DON'T LIKE CBEEBIES FOR WHAT THEY DID TO MY FAVOURITE BEDTIME LINEUP!!! Still, this publicity thing is a good idea.
4.Pipp's Best Livestream Ever.
This fun story featuring me and my friends tells of Pipp from MLP: Make Your Mark, who livestreams a whole best day ever with me and my friends. We head to the ice cream parlour, get treated with a makeover at the beauty salon and visit Rex The Runt and his roommates. My friends coming with me include Luke, Resus, Cleo, Bluey and Bingo. Imagine the looks on the Pool Group's faces when I tell them about a pegasus pony spending the whole day livestreaming in the pool club with them!
3.Asleep In The Car.
This gentle story may or may not be inspired by those Angry Kid shorts where Angry Kid and his dad are in the car engaging in gross, sick, bratty antics - a sort of problem every parent goes through on car journeys in the UK. One of the shorts was called 'Headlights', which is about as nightmarish as any of the shorts, or even the animation style. Well, in Asleep In The Car, which is a Me, You, And...vignette, the family car runs out of oil and Kiburi and Ua have to make do with waiting in the car on the curb for a whole night to be rescued. Furaha and Orko are asleep in the back of the car, and Kiburi and Ua are feeling really happy their two children are fast asleep, and quietly engage in a conversation about how happy they are to have such peaceful, angelic children.
2.Barbie: Epic Road Trip.
I'm going to play this as part of watching Not Quite Narwhal and other girly Netflix favourites. There are many, many, MANY Barbie series that came before it, included Barbie Life In The Dreamhouse, which I've yet to try if I watch Netflix. The best thing about CGI kids' series on Netflix is that every single one has slow paced animation, much like the new MLP movie, A New Generation, where the animation is at a reasonable pace so kids can get their eyes glued to the ponies on the screen. In Barbie: Epic Road Trip, you get to be in the driver's seat as you lead Barbie and her friends on the best road trip ever! Which path will you choose? It's almost like being Barbie's movie star chauffeur! I can't wait to try it out.
1.2 Entertain Releasing Thomas & Friends, Walking With Monsters & Aardman's Darkside.
WOAH! Imagine - one company, who merged with VCI and BBC Video, releasing all these different titles on DVD and VHS in the decade I was born! Walking With Monsters is for those who are curious about what happened before the dinosaurs were around and featured the most gruesome creatures ever seen by the human eye, including the giant spider that appears in episode 2. Thomas & Friends is well known by fans of trains and model trains, and each episode from the time 2 Entertain released the series is an easy going, chilled out story of one tank engine and his friends' adventures discovering Sodor. Much better than the CGI series, eh? And finally, in Aardman's Darkside, we see a whole host of adult animations from the creators of Wallace & Gromit, such as Rex The Runt and A Town Called Panic. Okay, I won't call Rex The Runt and A Town Called Panic harmless, but Angry Kid is creepy and Big Jeff is disgusting and rude, especially if you're offended by this as an Australian who recently moved to Britain. If I were you, I'd watch Rex and Panic and nothing else, not even the shorts, including the one where a rambler takes sick, twisted substances during his nature walk. Never, ever EVER will you trust Britain's best loved animation studio again, or Angry Kid will shoot you with his catapult!
