What children shows do you not allow your toddler to watch?

For example, I will not let my 2 year old watch Spongebob Squarepants or Teletubbies. Neither show promotes good values. Spongebob has nothing for children to learn from and Teletubbies in my opinion promotes speaking in gibberish because that is how the characters talk. So I am wondering what are no-no's for your toddlers?

When my kids were toddlers, I used to not allow SpongeBob too. But now that my kids are older, I don't mind as much. The only thing that is has changed is now they want SpongeBob bandaids and mac and cheese. I don't like Fairly Odd Parents or that Chumchum one. However at their ages, I don't really supervise what they watch b/c they only watch the Disney Channel and nickolodeon anyways and there's alot worse out there. Just remember, you're the bigger influence in your child's life--not the tv.

Thanks, I know I am the bigger influence, I was just wondering if there are other shows I should not let him watch just yet. Because he is in that stage where he does what he sees now. I do not like that Fanboy and Chum Chum show either.
