In October 13, 2022, Moonbug Entertainment partnered with Virgin Media to bring Blippi and other Moonbug programs to the United Kingdom. [15] The show expanded to Southeast Asia in March 2021 when Moonbug partnered with POPS Worldwide to bring children's content to the POPS Kids app. [16] Netflix acquired the streaming license to Blippi in January 2022. [17] Licensing and merchandise [ edit ] Blippi is an American online based child entertainer for toddlers and children up to the age of about five years old. [2] [3] History [ edit ] In interviews, John has said that the idea for Blippi came from a love of entertaining his nephew, then discovering there was a void of live-action kids content on YouTube. This is where John — who lists “SEO Specialist” among his former jobs on LinkedIn — had an advantage. While the programming that many millennials grew up on — Reading Rainbow or Sesame Street — was distributed by highly regulated networks, Blippi succeeds because it’s rewarded by the algorithm. Weprin, Alex (2022-11-16). "Blippi Franchise Expands With Meekah Show at Netflix". hollywoodreporter.com . Retrieved 2023-08-30. Blippi’s real name is Stevin John, and before he began performing as a twee, 21st-century clown, he was a filmmaker in LA. He created comedy videos under the moniker “Steezy Grossman” (he changed his name legally from Stephen J. Grossman to Stevin John) including low-budget, low-brow comedy videos with titles like “Turdboy” and “Underwear Man.” And Blippi is hardly John's first brush with internet fame.

Steezy giggles and continues dancing, as does his friend — for a few seconds, until you can hear the unmistakable sound of gagging, though he never stops attempting to wiggle his legs in a dancing motion. While Blippi’s sordid past as the "Harlem Shake Poop" guy might be eyebrow-raising, parents said it’s not a deal breaker. The “ Harlem Shake” meme went viral in early 2013. One person dances to the softer part of the techno song “Harlem Shake” by Baauer; then when the beat drops, a jump cut reveals a whole crowd of people dancing wildly, maybe in costumes. WWE wrestlers did one, BuzzFeed staffers did one, the hosts of the Today show did one, FCC Chair Ajit Pai did one to promote the end of net neutrality.Learn numbers, colours and more with Blippi! The popular YouTube entertainer now has an exciting range of educational toys to introduce ABCs, 1-2-3s and more.
Moonbug Acquires YouTube's 'Blippi' and 'CoComelon' ". Animation World Network . Retrieved 2021-06-20.The beat drops, and suddenly the video cuts to Steezy standing sideways on top of the toilet seat, fully nude now except for the helmet and sunglasses. In a typical video, Blippi — speaking directly to the camera, straining to project childlike wonder — explores things like buses, excavators, and jungle animals. Each episode ends with Blippi encouraging young viewers to ask an adult to follow him on social media; ever helpful, he spells out his name (“B-L-I-P-P-I!”). Clearly, he knows how to build a following. The videos end with Blippi’s theme song: “So much to learn about / It’ll make you want to shout: Blippi!” The result is a uniquely millennial hybrid of Mister Rogers and Jake Paul.

After a few seconds of dancing on the toilet, it happens. Steezy emits an explosive stream of shit, a cacophonous eruption that sends feces splattering across the room in a shotgun-like spray of poo pellets. Shit hits the wall, the glass shower door, the floor. And a sizable chunk hits its intended target: the spread-cheeked ass of his friend. It’s neither great nor terrible; it’s what you can expect. It delivers the same thing over [and over], and that’s what parents want,” Polly Conway, a senior TV editor who also focuses on YouTube for Common Sense Media, an organization that educates parents on children’s media, told BuzzFeed News.
