Hey all. noob-ish pirate here. Skipping long winded post. I'm struggling to find sources to download/torrent kids cartoons. Some are easy, but I'm looking for paw patrol and it's scarce on 1337. The more modern stuff and the super popular stuff are a little easier though. Not really any information on the Wiki about this stuff.

I see plenty of streaming resources. I guess if it comes down to it I can record it? I don't know the best way to do that, certainly doesn't seem ideal..

I'll update my post to reflect my levels of success :)

Snowfl has some pretty good results (note the addition of the keyword complete). But you can do a lot better than Paw Patrol! "Bluey", "The Owl House", "Hilda", and "Kipo and the age of the Wonderbeasts" are all far better choices for kids and your own sanity ;-)

Parents know those other shows are better, but I am more likely to be asked to put on Paw Patrol than Bluey and my toddler doesn't ever ask for Hilda. Kids have their own tastes, and it is impossible to shield them from everything you don't want them to watch. Thankfully, everyone I know agrees Cocomelon is harmful garbage and off limits, so I've been able to avoid that completely.

Heh. We've convinced our kids that Paw Patrol and Cocomelon "don't work on our TV". All I had to do was let her select it a few times and then kill the network connection when she wasn't looking. After that, we marked them as "disliked" in Netflix and now they never appear.

It may not last, but I'm doing what I can :-)

His grandparents let him watch whatever is on nick jr or Disney jr, so he already has paw patrol shoes, toys, and books. I figure it's a losing battle at this point. I should let him have fun. Paw Patrol isn't the worst thing in the world for him and if he's happy I am happy.
