I think the classic answers are likely to be Bluee and Duggee, with maybe a special shout-out to an old classic like Ballamory. However, for my money I don't think you can top the masterpiece that Is.....

Waffle the Wonder Dog. Great theme tune, adorable kids, occasionally funny neighbour and parents who don't have it so together that you feel bad about yourself, perfect.

What about you?

*The theme tune to Charlie and Lola is also top-tier

Bluey is excellent and deserves the praise.

Duggee is terrible and I don't get it at all.

My lad has had absurd mileage out of Numberblocks. For my tastes it's a bit uneven, but there are some good episodes in there with some genuine humour and wit. Never had much joy with Alphablocks or Colourblocks though.

JoJo & Gran Gran has its moments, but can be a little plodding.

Apple Tree House is a little preachy, but very even quality (and one of the very few fully live-action things on there these days, which makes a nice change).

Peppa Pig can get in the sea.

Genuinely really enjoy the vibe of JoJo and Gran-Gran. And the theme tune is great.

Not sure if this is accurate but I believe it aired during COVID, and whenever I hear it I get transported back to that time.
