Editing Peppa Pig (section)

==Reception==
Back when ''Peppa Pig'' was first released, it initially received good reviews. However, people started to point out flaws with the show later in its run, and it has started to receive more of a mixed reception from parents, critics and audiences, while cartoon reviewers on YouTube mostly gave it a negative feedback, including PhantomStrider and Caddicarus. Both have criticized the show for its characters, lack of common sense, nonexistent and/or rancid morals, Daddy Pig being fat-shamed by Peppa and the family, the narrator constantly pointing out the obvious, and so much more. Caddicarus has always hated ''Peppa Pig'' so much that he made a couple of reviews on the show a few times. He even reviewed the ''Peppa Pig: My First Album'' CD as well as the 2009 Nintendo DS Peppa Pig video game that was made for the United Kingdom. The show currently sits at a 6.3/10 rating on IMDB, and 65% of Google users liked it.

Despite the mixed reception from audiences and critics, ''Peppa Pig'' is a very popular preschool show from the United Kingdom and much like ''[[Bob the Builder (1998)|Bob the Builder]]'' and ''[[Thomas & Friends (Classic era, seasons 1-8)|Tho]][[Thomas & Friends (HiT model and Sharon Miller eras; seasons 9-16)|mas]] [[Thomas & Friends (Andrew Brenner era, seasons 17-21)|& Fri]][[Thomas & Friends (Big World! Big Adventures! era, seasons 22-24)|ends]]'', the show is not only popular in the United Kingdom, but is also popular all around the world. Peppa Pig herself was a Top 10 UK best-selling character toy according to NPD Group in April 2011,<ref>https://www.theguardian.com/media/2011/apr/18/hit-entertainment-thomas-the-tank-engine</ref> and the show was second only to ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants (seasons 1-5, 9-present)|SpongeBob]] [[SpongeBob SquarePants (seasons 6-8)|SquarePants]]'' as the world's most-watched children's cartoon in the 12 months to March 2021, according to the ''Wall Street Journal''. For the year, it jumped from 103rd to 50th most in-demand show overall. These all stem from the '''exceptionally heavy airtime''' that Nick Jr. UK gives the show - it often fills up more than half the schedule and the second Nick Jr. channel in the United Kingdom is often turned into a channel showing only ''Peppa Pig'' for a month each time; same for Discovery Kids, Peppa Pig fills almost the entire schedule, not giving any chance for other shows to shine.

The show would also gain a cult following under a "so bad, it's good" charm.
