One user admitted being bothered by the news for more than one reason: “Not only was the show originally out six years before this date, but if this is their birthday, I’m only a day older than them and that makes me so very uncomfortable,” the tweet reads.
The cards conveyed that the Teletubbies had received two shots of “Noo-nson & Noo-nson,” one on July 1, 2021, and another on July 22.
Designed to help young children develop physical, emotional and cognitive skills, the popular series followed the Teletubbies as they interacted with others in their world, and spawned toys and other merchandise.
Whoever runs the @TeletubbiesHQ Twitter account was apparently unfazed by the storm of people overanalyzing the Tubbies’ announcement.
