The Teletubbies

The Teletubbies are a group of 4 creatures (Tinky Winky (Purple), Dipsy (Green), Laa-Laa (Yellow), and Po (Red)) who originate from their own show, and they have been utilized in the Barney Bunch and Speakonia Community since the Newgrounds era, and despite not being forgotten, their roles have decreased over the years and are nowadays rarely used.

Description

The Teletubbies made their premier in 1997 when their show first aired in the UK, and it would later broadcast in the US on the PBS network in 1998. Their show would last from 1997 to 2001, and reruns would later air up until 2008 on the PBS network. In 2015, a revival series premiered on the both BBC and Nick Jr, and it is still airing today.

During the early days of the Barney Bunch, the group would adopt them as one of their staple characters, and become members of the fictional Barney Bunch, and after the move to YouTube, their roles began to slowly decline and they eventually found themselves in obscurity, but despite this, they still get used today in Blood-style videos, as well as "Goes To" Videos.

Since Laa-Laa and Po are females in the original show, some users turn them into males just so they can fit right in with the rest of the Barney Bunch, though some users decided to make them members of the Betty Bunch while Tinky Winky and Dipsy stay Barney Bunch members, which resulted in their lore/roles to be infamously inconsistent and messy.

They're voiced by so many Speakonia voices, ranging from Sam, Mike, Mary, The Adult Male voices, and Adult Female voices, holding the record for having the most voices used for a character in Speakonia videos. The Microsoft Sam voice is primarily used for Tinky Winky, using different pitches, while Dipsy uses the Adult Male #2 voice.
