Cocomelon’s main target is to shorten the attention span, which explains the addiction as well as tantrums. It’s scary n crazy because even as an adult, feeling overstimulating feels so intense and overwhelming, I can’t imagine how badly it defects a young brain!
3:16. That’s actually EXACTLY what they do bro. They have a bunch of kids sit in a room in front of two screens, one with cocomelon on it. People legit STUDY HOW LONG IT TAKES FOR THE KIDS TO TAKE THEIR EYES OFF IT AND WHY, AND MODIFY THE EPISODE UNTIL 100% ATTENTION SPAN IS GRABBED. Look up Cocomelon Distractatron. I’m not even kidding.
I have ADD, and I can typically pull up a UA-cam video and do something else like drawing or knitting, but when it comes to these kid's shows (I have two nieces under the age of 5), I can't do anything other than watch them. It's scary even to adults.
I am gen alpha (11, nearly 12) and I absolutely detest this media. I want to talk to my cousin about it because they have cocomelon addicts for children but they live like 10 hours away and I don't have her number, so I can't for the time being.Also, their eldest child is going to start kindergarten this year. he was born in 2020.
0:42 if we are going to be fair I’ve heard that the Cocomelon team actually intended on this because they are trying to make their corporation as addicting as possible
Cocomelon makes the animations bright so kids focus it over a lot of activities. It's actually worrying how kids get so stimulated agaist their will...
I may be just a random high schooler but…Savantics made a video on this a while back. The summary of why it does this shit is a combination of the fast pacing of the shots, the overstimulation (such as the movement of objects and events) in said shots, the rhythm of the music, and the absurdly oversaturared and vibrant colors that draws children. Once they receive that much stimulation, it’s like a drug, they want more. It’s like going into a bar, getting a Sam Adams for your first time, and wanting more, and you throw a fit (metaphorically) because you didn’t get more. The kids take in the stimulation and it’s like a drug to them, and they don’t realize it, it’s like being sober for 6 months, you’re completely fine, but you see your buddy drinking a Sam Adams, and it’s right back to how it was before, because your brain remembers and now craves the stimulant. It is literally, I hate to say this but, “Baby’s First Bottle” or “Baby’s First Smoke”.
Yo I saw that video and honestly it was so insanely well researched, more potential parents need to see that video before they have kids, the more we spread the awareness the better chance we have of freeing the next generation from Cocomelon addiction
yeah maybe it's time to actually start raising kids, gen alpha was only bad because of how they were raised, y'all are prob gonna bully that gen as soon as they gain consciousness
Can we stop gen alpha hate I’m gen alpha and 14 chill plus cocomelon is a meme to me I never watched cocomelon it is just a joke no one in our generation who is not a toddler actually likes it
7:03 Robocar Poli is the GOAT! I used to watch that crap on Astro Ceria (Malaysian cable television) when the internet goes out before they nuked their line of imported shows. Shout-out to my South Korean homies who made this show!
Gotta love how often ya post, this is why you are one of the only people I’m subbed to, unlike most now a days you actually know how to make great content
How are there people in my generation (I was born in the 2000s) that say they grew up with Cocomelon?! This was a thing when I was a kid like what????? I grew up with Mr Rodger's/Daniel Tiger's Neightborhood, PBS and Yo Gabba Gabba 😭
Savantics made a pretty solid analysis video on cocomelon and turns out it's overstimulating because of very quick camera shots. like the shots in cocomelon's baby shark are as fast as in a fight scene in Arcane. this causes children to be constantly overstimulated and when cocomelon is off, everything is too slow for them, hence throwing tantrums and turning into a zombie once it's back on i recommend watching their whole video tho, my comment is just a long-story-short of it
It is said that the reason the little kids would be transported into a trans like state when watching cocomelon, is because cocomelon apparently would have young kids watch an episode, and have people in the back doing stuff kids parents would do, and whenever the kid would look away, they would take that part of the episode, and change it, untill the kid would watch the episode without ever looking away.
its crazy how cocomelon puts so much time to make it as addictive and attention holding as possible for kids. they have rooms with 2 tvs and they find the parts when kids look away even for a second to maximize the money they can make
This family friend (who is a mother of a toddler) said that she hates cocomelon because it is so overstimulating and instead shows her toddler stuff like peppa pig because it is more slow paced and I felt so glad.
The reason why Thomas the tank engine stood the test of time was of how slow paced it was and told a story, George Carlin himself said it was a very smart show that didn't talk down to it's audience and let them took in what they saw it's a real shame no show in 2025 can ever be like that
i remember someone making a tik tok explaining why its so bad for kids. You mention the bright ass colours and that's a part of it. Higher saturation means more bright lights for children to try process. Another thing to note is the quick rate of how they go from one scene to another. They are constantly changing camera angle and at a much much higher rate than normal kid shows. The reason they act this way is because it is literally overwhelming kids brains with all the bright colours and noise so they have trouble processing it. It's not pre brain rot its the ORIGINAL brain rot. You can point at MLG or other forms of shitposting but annoying orange at least didn't change camera angles multiple times a second. And MLG wasn't meant for kids
We can’t escape the melon. Everywhere. You can’t escape the melon’s reign. I once walked through a toy isle in Target and practically half of all the toys in that isle were Cocomelon (Cocomelon? more like Crackomelon)
You’re late. It is now generation beta that is entering the world. But we are all people so why need generations to qualify people into different groups?
Remember when the songs from Hannah Montana and Victorious dominated a whole generation? Yeah, those were the times. Nowadays, its just Cocomelon and BenjixScarlett...

I had odd squad, super why, word world, and wild Kratts.
@Xx0_Espresso_0xX all those too
yeah i watched all 3 of those as a kid
I had Masha and the bear
The fact Engween had to make a full video on cocomelon just shows what a juggernaut it’s become. It’s infecting the commentary community

Wha :O
who remembers when it was called ABC Kid TV?
Or even That's me on TV?
“ABC kids tv”

Why would we?

same (12 in a few days)

The worse thing than the wheels on the bus? It’s like tiktokers showing their kids this brainrot chain. And brainrot chains should be stopped.
How to make a youtube shorts comment: "Random quote said in the video"
Now say "Got me"
And now for the emojis say "💀😭🙏"
As a TV Broadcast member, I can confirm we sometimes use live pans and zooms to keep our audience engaged, but far from the level Cocomelon does.
If I had 10 cents everytime coco melon has a cut, I’ll get enough to buy Undertale
so 1500 cents?

Brainrot before brainrot-
brainrot existed since the beginning of the internet
@ but before the term was created
Imagine if in the future there will be a robot uprise but instead of evil robots and stuff it’s robots forcing us to watch cocomelon
cocomelon is babys brainrot, BRAINROT FOR 1 YEAR OLDS?!!?!?
1 years olds are technically Toddlers
I don’t watch it because the over saturated colours burn my sensitive eyes, and how stupid the show is.

Welp, Gen Beta will be hypnotised by it more then Gen Alpha
Or not, there’s a chance that gen beta kids will be raised better than gen alpha

as a person that watched cocomelon ever since i was 1, this is VERY dissapointing.
Cocomelon was the last thing I thought you’d post.
Its really shit for kids brains because it has so many camera changes every like 0.9 seconds
and the colors are cranked to max luminosity, wich stimulates their mind too much, and makes them addicted.
This family friend (who is a mother of a toddler) said that she hates cocomelon because it is so overstimulating and instead shows her toddler stuff like peppa pig because it is more slow paced and I felt so glad.
Mickey Mouse, Elmo, abc kids, Mr Rodger’s, Thomas the tank engine, bob the builder, curious George is what I grew up watching
This feels like a kids equivalent of a drug
Nah wheels on the bus hits different
Gen Alphas cocomelon addiction scares me
I’m not addicted tho

i gotta give it to cocomelon for actually making it work lol
I remember one of the kids on my bus last year watched a cocomelon video for a JOKE
Honestly, back when I was little, I would watch those nostalgic Phonics Songs
So remember parents, don't give any electronic devices to your kid until they become an adult, or they'll end up like them...
As a person who grew up watching Tom and Jerry I can tell that this is a braintot..
Same here
0:31 giving edp ideas XD
This shit is why if I have a kid, I will not let them even see any type of tech until they are at least 15.

5:16 i agree, Bluey is better show for toddlers than cocomelon because cocomelon isn't as good as Bluey
Even thought the fanbase is weird your not wrong
Well it’s not alphas fault, it’s Gen Z and millennials.
Wait, so there are so much problems on UA-cam that appear a lot. But there are lots of real problems too. So uhh, are we cooked by this?
I think so
