This is fucked up. Is this because of Halloween?

 

[Nvzman]

Holy shit I'm dying.

 

[epmode]

Someone give him the eyes from the trucks pls.

 

[strobogo]

All these remasters of my childhood. This is the most depressing thing I've heard today.

How old are you that you watched BTB as a kid?

 

[Face it Tiger..]

everything gets a shitty CG art form.

from Bob to Peabody

 

[Lakershead22]

He looks even creepier than before

 

[MBR]

"Say that to my face fucker not online and see what happens"

 

[Guerrillas in the Mist]

From the company that brought you

Setting my childhood on fire and then pissing on it's corpse.

 

[Five]

Someone give him the eyes from the trucks pls.

Be careful what you wish for.

 

[thesuperfunk]

Setting my childhood on fire and then pissing on it's corpse.

The worst thing [atleast from one Fireman Sam episode I witnessed the other day] is that the new CGI treatment appears to be a shot-for-shot recreation of the old stop-motion series.

 

[……forgetit]

Holy shit, Bob the builder premiered when I was six?

 

[SJRB]

Be careful what you wish for.

Bob "16-hour-shift" the Builder.

 

[Bgamer90]

Terrible.

 

[temp]

Be careful what you wish for.

Beautiful work here.

 

[The Last Wizard]

Wait, they modernized Thomas the Engine too?

Yup been about 3-4 years now, it's really lost its charm.

 

[snoopeasystreet]

I never knew Bob was a child. Who'd hire a kid to build anything?

 

[Lemonte]

Kids shows nowadays look awful compared to what there were 20 years ago.

 

[Skilotonn]

Never watched this show, but that change wasn't necessary at all.

 

[MatrixMan.EXE]

NOPE.

 

[Skeyser]

eww

 

[Five]

Bob "16-hour-shift" the Builder.

Lucky he has the Red Bulldozer and the Red Bull Bulldozer to help him out.

Spoiler

I need a job

 

[Mr. Doop]

Can we fix it?

Spoiler

No, I don't think we can.

 

[7aged]

If they really want to make it modern, turn him into a polish builder.

 

[kulapik]

The trucks faces remind me of the trains ones of Chuggington, and Bob's face is exactly like the fat kid in Lazy Town.

 

[Horse Detective]

I am really sick of feeling like I hate everything made by creative workers in animation.

I can't believe a professional worked on this.

 

[CrazyDogg77]

I never knew Bob was a child. Who'd hire a kid to build anything?

He's not a child lol

 

[DoubleYou]

Why would anyone mess with an iconic character like that?
Kids will notice and it will be off-putting.

 

[Leunam]

Conservative Facebook told me he got replaced by Handy Manny.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

For some reason, the blue truck reminds me of blamespace.

 

[Koppai]

He actually looked like an adult in his old form now he looks like a creepy child.

He can fix me anytime

 

[Volotaire]

Conservative Facebook told me he got replaced by Handy Manny.

Handy Manny is terrible, but less so than this new 'look' of Bob. I am just disappointed. Hopefully it looks better in animation.

 

[BlackGhost]

Nightmares.

 

[Tesseract]

heuhaermph daz 1 fine builder u know look @ da fukn rest watch balling ass fuck

 

[Adzin]

For some reason, the blue truck reminds me of blamespace.

 

[alfredofroylan]

So, finally we can see Wendy and new character Leo

Leo's description:

Leo is an enthusiastic, messy and impulsive apprentice builder. He is young, streetwise, eager to learn about the world of building and desperate to become a builder in his own right. But he has a short attention span and is easily distracted, which can often lead to problems that range from minor mishaps to complete and total chaos.

 

[KissVibes]

So, finally we can see Wendy and new character Leo

Leo's description:

Of fucking course Leo is "streetwise."

 

[SKINNER!]

But he has a short attention span and is easily distracted, which can often lead to problems that range from minor mishaps to complete and total chaos.

...sigh.

 

[Catdaddy]

So now with Leo in the mix he can be "Bob the Subcontractor"..

 

[The Technomancer]

Streetwise? Really? Streetwise?

Really?

 

[Timedog]

I WANT TO DO MANUAL LABOR WHEN I GROW UP

 

[DrM]

That is terrifying.

Showed this picture to my 6 year old nephews. They thought that I am joking and then ran away

I wonder how will they 'upgrade' that cat character

 

[Nebula]

Leo to tear up Wendy confirmed.

 

[Blood Red Sky]

In this week's episode, Bob is forced out of business by Bożimir - a Polish builder who turns up on time, doesn't slack off, and doesn't dick about talking to concrete mixers.

 

[Ithil]

So, finally we can see Wendy and new character Leo

Leo's description:

I see he's black, then look at the description. Yeah. "Young and streetwise".

 

[Cuphead]

Incredibly gross

 

[MattyG]

Wait... they redesigned Thomas too? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

 

[Blood Red Sky]

I'm still waiting for a sexed-up new version of Bodger and Badger.

 

[Marvel]

I'm still waiting for a sexed-up new version of Bodger and Badger.

Would totally watch that.

 

[Alienous]

All I see now when I look at old Bob is Karl Pilkington.

 

[Kid Ska]

lol fucking streetwise... what does that even mean in the context of construction
