Netflix dropped a shocking bombshell on subscribers when the streaming giant announced the decision to reboot The Teletubbies. For children of the 90s, Teletubbies was a popular choice of entertainment on television. The OG Teletubbies ran from 1997 to 2001 on BBC. Shockingly, the series was later brought back by CBeebies for three more years from 2015 to 2018.

The timing of the first Teletubbies reboot was somewhat nostalgic for children of the 90s who were now old enough to have children over their own watching the rebooted version of the children’s series. Fast forward another decade and Netflix has decided to pick Teletubbies up for a second reboot and give the series another spin. If the children’s series keeps to its normal pattern, fans could see another three to four years of Teletubbies via Netflix. Whether the series continues beyond a single season really hinges on how well the reboot does and whether Netflix determines it to be worth the money invested.
