Peppa Pig
My son became a fan of Peppa Pig after he found a soft toy of the pink talkative pig. He took an instant liking that transformed into fan-following watching all the episodes on YouTube. There have been moments when Advait and I have had ‘snorting’ or ‘grunting’ matches. You need to know the 3 different lengths of snorts. And the little squeak for George.
I do love the series, I must say. I feel the makers have done a fine job specially in the voice-acting department. The dubs are perfect, excellent intonation and conveys every little emotion very beautifully. To the extent that my cub has started speaking in the same tonality. Lovely win-win for the makers.
But a strange thought entered my mind. There are a few things, you will never see in Peppa Pig. And a few things that are a complete no-no to say to them. *Don’t read ahead, meanness ahead.
Here are a few:
“Can I please have a few rashes of bacon for breakfast please?”
“For Sunday Roast, Mummy Pig just made some roast pork.”
“When Papa Pig sits down to eat, he always pigs out.”
“I love food trucks. Specially the ones that make pulled-pork sandwiches.”
“Mummy, where does ham come from?”

Sorry son. Maybe you will see the humorous side when you grow up or outgrow P-e-e-e-e-ppa Pig.
