Teletubbies reboot set to premiere on Netflix in November #IndiaNEWS #Entertainment
Washington: A reboot of the British childrens television series Teletubbies, which was created by Anne Wood and Andrew Davenport, has been set by Netflix.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the show will feature the four Teletubbies interacting and discovering their world and will be narrated by Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt star Tituss Burgess.
Set to debut in November, this reboot is a part of a slate of Netflix shows aimed at young kids debuting in the coming months.
The Teletubbies reboot is one of a handful of new versions of kids shows from the 1990s and early 2000s that delighted kids and were sometimes the scourge of their parents.
In June, Peacock announced a CGI redo of Caillou, which in turn follows new versions of DuckTales, Blues Clues, Carmen Sandiego and Animaniacs, among others.
Teletubbies originated on the BBC in 1997 and first aired in the United States on PBS, a year later. In 1999, right-wing televangelist Jerry Falwell accused the show of pushing LGBTQ propaganda on children because Tinky Winky carries a bag and because he is purple the gay-pride colour, and his antenna is shaped like a triangle the gay-pride symbol.
As per The Hollywood Reporter, the ensuing controversy had a Streisand Effect, only serving to raise the shows profile; the head of the shows production company, Ken Viselman, responded that Tinky Winky is not gay. Hes not straight. Hes just a character in a childrens series. I think that we should just let the Teletubbies go and play in Teletubbyland and not try to define them.
