* ValuesDissonance: A country-based example; this is why the two episodes related to Mister Skinnylegs were banned in Australia. While most parts of the world have spiders that are perfectly harmless, Australia is infamously home to some of the deadliest spiders in the world, so while teaching kids that spiders are nothing to be afraid of is a perfectly good [[AnAesop aesop]] elsewhere, teaching this lesson to kids in Australia is a disaster waiting to happen. In fact, this is why the episode got [[BannedInChina banned from airing on Australian TV]].

** Mr. Potato is this in the Piggy game on ''VideoGame/{{Roblox}}''. Mr. Potato is a FriendToAllChildren in canon, often encouraging them to eat their vegetables. But in Piggy, he is a BitchInSheepsClothing who caused the apocalypse that takes place in the game. [[spoiler:Though it was unintentional, as he was trying to save his dying wife from a disease.]]

* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: Peppa's family owns a CRT TV and a computer that resembles one from the early-mid 2000s (the series released in 2004) and even after time passed on in real life, they kept the old TV and computer. Another thing to point out is the lack of cell phones in the show, with all the phones either being rotary, touch tone, or flip phones. This has become somewhat subverted in recent episodes, with Mummy Pig having a cell phone in "Little Swift", and Mummy Sheep using a more modern laptop in the Castle episode. However, the Pig family still has their old TV and Computer.

* BrokenBase: Peppa and Mummy Pig joking about Daddy Pig having a "big tummy". Some see this as overly mean, hypocritical since all ''Peppa Pig'' characters have round tummies, or even "body shaming". Others, however, see the humour in it and think of it as just familial ribbing. One episode shows that if someone from outside the family mocks Daddy Pig's weight, it pushes Mummy Pig's BerserkButton.
** The show is this in Italy, while Italian kids don't mind the show (In fact, they even love it.) and is where the Peppa Pig YouTubePoop originated from, Italian parents dislike the show with the issues as mention above.

** The show is a gigantic phenomenon in Latin America, especially in Mexico, despite being almost completely unknown before 2013[[note]] the series had previously aired on the Latin American version of Boomerang, when the channel shifted from its original classic format to one oriented at all ages[[/note]]. There, it's so popular among small kids and even older people that Peppa cuddly toys are sold even by street vendors, and that in 2015, an official Peppa Pig live-show tour was sold out several months before it even began. Discovery Kids, the channel that airs the series in the region, runs about four daily hours of episodes.

* FandomRivalry: With ''WesternAnimation/{{Bluey}}''. Both use being part of the opposing fandom as an insult, and Peppa Pig fans are expected to be Bluey haters.

* FandomRivalry: With ''WesternAnimation/{{Bluey}}''. Both use being part of the opposing fandom as an insult, and Peppa Pig fans are expected to be Bluey haters. This mainly stems from ''Bluey'' fans claiming that the show was similar to ''Peppa Pig'', but a lot better, which rubbed the ''Peppa Pig'' fans up the wrong way and caused them to view them as snobs.

* UnintentionallySympathetic: Downplayed. Those who dislike Peppa (or the show itself) tend to feel sorry for Daddy Pig who is usually the ButtMonkey of the show, including whenever Peppa comments about his tummy. Granted, this is usually played for laughs and is in no way meant to be malicious, but viewers tend to take it as that.

* CommonKnowledge: It is assumed by the public that ''Peppa Pig'' was BannedInChina by the government for the popular "gangster" interpretation of her. Actually, Douyin (the Chinese version of Website/{{TikTok}}) was the one who did the banning, and only of adult content featuring her, not wanting WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids reactions.

** In the episode "Pedro's Cough", there's a RunningGag of Madame Gazelle [[MusicalisInteruptus getting her "Miss Polly Had a Dolly" song interrupted]] twice, but manages to sing it entirely during the end credits. Cut to thirteen years later, where [[WesternAnimation/GuillermoDelTorosPinocchio a cricket]] would experience the same problem.

* ArchivePanic: As of 2019, the show has suffered from this (aside from the following facts: being a CashCowFranchise and a LongRunner). It'll take more like ten to twenty barns to store its 300+ episodes and everything else in the franchise released so far. With the original programme confirmed to continue through at least 2027, the franchise is not going to stop producing episodes any time soon. Fortunately, there's Website/YouTube, as well as home video releases.

** Apparently, Italian parents are not pleased with the show, pointing out the titular character's bratty nature. What certainly doesn't help was the Italian Holiday arc having ''several'' TakeThat[=s=] against Italy.
