CGI Fireman Sam is Absolute Garbage

Disclaimer: The following video and my channel are only for adults to watch and are unsuitable for children under the age of 13, I know I'm talking about a kids show like this, but this video is unsuitable for children due to it containing swearing, strong language, adult themes, and inappropriate content!
This is a rant I wanted to do in long time, CGI Fireman Sam (feels like a reboot), and good lord does this shit suck so hard, I should've gotten canceled after season 5, It should've never happened, and it should be canceled after season 13 and replaced with some new CGI show with the ultra cartoonish, semi-realistic character designs from season 1-4 or 5, RIGHT NOW

Considering what the recent comments said, This video is now outdated will be remade in the future, speaking of the comments, some of you guys have recently pointed out or noticed that Norman started to improve in Season 13 as his personality traits have been toned down to the point where he is much more well-behaved and no longer causes emergencies as often as in S6-12, I actually didn't watch much of Season 13 at the time making this video, until 2 years later along with forcing myself to watch Seasons 14 and 15 last month and I have quite a lot to say about those last two seasons. So yeah. This video will be remade like I said with added things I truly missed.

[@Itz_Twistyy]

Ever since the new animation company took over, I’ve noticed the quality of the show in general just got way better and entertaining

[@CadenTheGreatWesternEngine]

I agree, But it's still not as good as S17-21 of Thomas and Friends, I hope it redeems it self further more, but given it's Mattel, I'm not sure about that

[@natanek2206]

Mattel likes to change every single bit of fireman Sam, one thing that really pushed my buttons is them changing Jupiter in season 15 I’ve also noticed that some characters like Mandy have been becoming a bit spoiled and entitled

[@CadenTheGreatWesternEngine]

Yes I noticed it while still hate-watching it (which has gotten me more PTSD) and those changes were so dumb

[@user-ue2zi1kr3f]

Since cgi Fireman Sam has ended now I hope that the company BBC will buy the franchise from Mattel and wipe all the cgi episodes from series 6-15. Now for those of you who don't know what wiped means well let me explain. Back in the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s the BBC and nearly every other company had to wipe many of there old programs hence to try and save up on money and storage in there archives. For example many of the old Doctor Who episodes got put in an incinerator, burnt up and wiped from the archive. Like I said before I hope the BBC will buy Fireman Sam from Mattel and take all the cgi episodes from series 6-15 and put them into an incinerator and wipe them then we can all pretend that Fireman Sam ended after series 5.

(I have no idea if this opinion sounds controversial or not) Season 11-12 did somewhat good in someways, such as hiring a better animation team, along with adding the police (Yeah, the ones that didn't arrest Norman Price for his irresponsible actions) on PontyPandy, and Season 13 (while animation is massively improved) sped up the series downfall(like Season 6 and 10) with it being infamous for having it pander toward political correctness by having black people voice the black characters
