Baby Shark

Go To

  • Broken Base: People either like Baby Shark and think it’s a cute nursery rhyme, song, and video, or they think it’s very annoying. Everyone has a different outlook on it.
  • Memetic Mutation:
    • There is memes to oblivion of it, being one of the most viewed videos on YouTube.
    • Being an extremely popular, extremely recognized, and having been milked as part of a franchise built around it. It has been poked fun at for this.
  • Older Than They Think: The “Baby Shark” dance and nursery rhyme actually existed since the late 20th century, albeit in complete obscurity. Pinkfong only popularized it with their version of it.
  • It's Popular, Now It Sucks!: Has this reaction due to its sheer cash-in nature and being one of the most popular children’s video to date.
  • Signature Song: Has become one for Pinkfong.
  • Sweetness Aversion: This generally has this reaction due to the video and song's ultra-saccharine nature.
