The Teletubbies have babies called ‘Tiddlytubbies’ and people have so many questions

The Teletubbies features cute baby alien-looking characters: Tinky Winky, Dipsy, Laa-Laa, and Po, who turned out to be not cute-sized at all in real life. When the truth about the Teletubbies’ height went viral, some people couldn’t get over the horrific discovery that the Teletubbies characters we see in our TV screens are actually 6 to 10 ft. tall.

What’s even disturbing is that the costume weighs more than 30 lbs and actors inside it can be in danger of carbon-dioxide buildup.

 

And just when you thought that the Teletubbies couldn’t get any weirder, now there are babies featured in it called “Tiddlytubbies” and people are losing their minds. Like, how did the Teletubbies had babies when we all thought they were “kids” themselves?

 

For those, like us, haven’t catched up on the latest episodes of the show, the Teletubbies now have 8 Tiddlytubbies named Baa, Umby Pumby, Ping, Daa Daa, Nin, Mi-Mi, RuRu and Duggle Dee. They were first introduced in an episode of the series in 2015 and are back for the second season of Teletubbies showing on Nick Jr.

 

People have so many questions on how these babies were even conceived… or created.

 

Everyone is so confused.

 

Some are being creative with their theories on how the Teletubbies had “telebabies”.

 

Seeing the Tiddlytubbies’ colors, others are figuring out who’s the parent of each baby.

 

Some are even questioning the gender of the Teletubbies.

 

And are we forgetting that we thought they were siblings too?

 

We’ve been watching too much Game of Thrones to know this is possible.

 

Honestly, all of us right now:

 

WE. NEED. ANSWERS.
