Netflix Cancels Children Present That includes Non-Binary Bison Who Makes use of They/Them Pronouns

Netflix not too long ago canceled a kids’s animated present that includes a non-binary bison who insists on utilizing they/them pronouns. 

“Ridley Jones” premiered in 2021 and simply launched its fifth and ultimate season. The present is rated TV-Y, which means it’s aimed toward a really younger viewers, together with kids from ages 2-6. The collection follows a woman named Ridley who lives in a magical museum together with her mom and grandmother. She’s accompanied by her non-binary bison Fred who has two “dad mummies.”

Creator Chris Nee, a lesbian and mother, said of the collection launch in 2021: “I am here to change the world. Or retire trying. I know what it is to be ‘othered’. My job is to show the world as I want it to be.”

Individuals strongly reacted to episode 8 of season 5, “Herd Day.” This episode focuses on the non-binary bison discussing pronoun utilization. Cyndi Lauper voices Fred’s grandmother. 

Fred says, “My heart says that the way I feel most myself is to go by the name Fred. That’s because I’m nonbinary and Fred is the name that fits me best. And I also use ‘they’ and ‘them,’ because calling me a she or a he doesn’t feel right to me.” This evokes the little bison’s Grandma Dottie to apologize to Fred for utilizing a earlier title and pronouns.

Twitter erupted with reactions from accounts that accused the present of making an attempt to foist radical left-wing gender principle on preschoolers. 

“Don’t tell me there is not an agenda. Netflix has done it again. This show is for preschoolers,” one person posted. “Bye Netflix.”

“An actual kid’s show on Netflix. They’re coming for your kids,” Libs of TikTok shared.

Nee addressed the present’s cancellation final week.

“Doesn’t surprise me that Netflix has quietly dumped the first preschool show that has a non-binary character coming out,” Nee shared in a tweet on March 8.

“Oh and yes, this is the end of the series. They cancelled us after what they just put out. They threw all the specials, the xmas special (now?), the feature length special, the CYNDI LAUPER episode and just quietly slipped it onto the service. So this is it,” she continued. 

In one other tweet, Nee wrote, “…Show your kids. It’s on Netflix. It’s important. It’s a … roadmap for coming out but also for having someone else tell you they’ve changed their pronouns and/or name.”
