The loudness, the obnoxious voices, sounds, and music, the lousy CGI, the cheesy storylines – there's nothing about these shows that aren't completely vomit-inducing. The shows on this list exemplify the absolute worst of the worst. 

Which kids' shows are the most annoying? That's up for you to decide. Vote up all the TV shows you think are the most annoying, and vote down the ones you find more tolerable. Either way, kids will still probably watch them!
