Kids' Show Mascot Parody for the general premise of parodying a show like that.
Stylistic Suck for the makers of the top-level show making their Show Within a Show deliberately annoying, repetitive, terrible, and unbearable.

Sugar Bowl for the setting these shows tend to take place in. Sickeningly Sweet for the reaction from people who dislike this kind of thing.

Is there a trope for in-universe media that's loved by small children (especially Barney-esque stuff with annoying songs, repetitive catchphrases, terrible production values), but unbearable for adults?
