TIL there are multiple episodes of Caillou where his behavior was so awful that PBS Kids banned them from being re-aired. - eviltoast

And yes, I’m also shocked and saddened that there is a Caillou fandom site.

    Why are you saddened? (Other than the fact that it’s a fandom site)

        Why? Is it so bad to care about something just because it’s made for kids? Something the editors very likely were at some point?

        Or is it literally just the word “fan” in “fandom” that bothers you? Since the show is old and has been around for a long time, the wiki was probably created when the site was called wikia. Is that better?

        If it’s so bad that someone made a collection of facts about a series, maybe don’t share their work.

                I think doubling down signaled toxicity, rather than a light tone.

                  You really want to make this into some big awful thing I did when I was just joking around, something apparently everyone but you was aware of.

                  I’m not going to indulge you further, but I hope one day the concept of humor comes to your planet.
