“Peppa Pig,” the popular and long-running British animated children’s show that airs on Nick Jr. in the U.S., has introduced a same-sex couple as parents on the series.
Penny Polar Bear is Peppa Pig’s classmate. In a short scene during a recent episode entitled “Families,” which aired on Sept. 6 on Channel 5 in the U.K. Penny talked about her parents as she drew a picture of her family eating dinner.
“I’m Penny Polar Bear,” Penny said in the clip, which you can view in this TikTok video. “I live with my mommy and my other mommy. One mommy is a doctor, and one mommy cooks spaghetti. I love spaghetti.”
“Peppa Pig,” which debuted in 2004, is broadcast in 180 countries and translated into 40 languages. It airs in the U.S. in blocks that place a number of the short, 5-minute episodes together and is available streaming online at Paramount+ as well as on Amazon Prime and Roku. The show’s run in the U.S. lags a bit behind the British broadcasts.
The first “Peppa Pig” theme park opened in February next to Legoland, located near Orlando, Florida.
