It's a weird idea. Somebody at the BBC has lost the plot.
Joking apart, what sort of monsters and aliens would we get
in a series aimed at under-fives?!

"under-fives"?? Ah!! Come on, now. Sans anything else, we'll
all be  watching it, won't we?? (Well, assuming it's on
Free-to-Air T.V.!)

I guess that depends on where you live, as well as whether
or not it is part of Disney+'s international distribution
agreement.

I can't believe grown adults who don't watch "Doctor Who" and
haven't done so for a few years would sit and watch a pre-school
animated children's series because it's a "Doctor Who" spin-off
and free-to-air... I mean, would they sit and watch "Bluey" &
"Pepa Pig" too? That's the sort of programme this will be, an
animated pre-school learning show with plenty of bright colours
and simple dialogue. Hardly the sort of thing to entertain the
masses and give them their "Doctor Who" fix whilst the main show
is locked behind a subscription service. It's not going to be
"The Clone Wars"!!!

 Closer to the "Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures", which is popular, even with some older fans. The Doctor Who animated show is probably going to be more like "Go Jetters", aimed at the older end of the CBeebies audience. Basically involving problems-solving, being kind, sharing, co-operation, asking for help, etc.

Too much colour and movement for me. I was hoping it was like 'The Jetsons'.
