hardcore_gamer Posted October 25, 2012 Ah! The Teletubbies. The Teletubbies are broadcasted in Icelandic TV like in so many other places, however because of a mistake the channel that broadcasted the show accidentally used the wrong subtitles, so instead of showing the subtitles for the Teletubbies it instead used subtitles from The Sopranos instead. And thus the Teletubbies spent their time in the show talking about drugs and murder while the kiddies at home watched. Here is an Icelandic news souce via Goggle Translate: http://translate.google.is/translate?sl=is&tl=en&js=n&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&layout=2&eotf=1&u=http%3A%2F%2Fvisir.is%2Fhardskeyttur-lala-segir-po-til-syndanna-%2Farticle%2F2012121029337&act=url I really love this shot that came with the news story: In English, the subtitles says: "I know that you were high during my mothers funeral". That combined with the red teletubbie just laying there like a stoner makes that image look hysterically funny to me. The subtitles from the other screenshots from the news story are pretty funny as well. They say (from the the top one to the last one): 1. You are no longer good as a man. 2. Last week you killed my dog. 3. You killed my dog? Why did you do that? 4. He sat on him while high. Thoughts? 0 Share this post Link to post

Phobus Posted October 25, 2012 Probably one of the better mistakes to make :P 0 Share this post Link to post
Dragonsbrethren Posted October 25, 2012 Those subtitles fit the scenes too well for this to have been an accident. 0 Share this post Link to post

printz Posted October 25, 2012 Are you telling me that in Iceland even children's (in this case babies') shows get subbed and not dubbed? I'm feeling jealous. 0 Share this post Link to post

The show doesn't need subtitles becasue the Teletubies don't actually talk. I think this was a prank gone right. 0 Share this post Link to post
Mr. T Posted October 26, 2012 Considering anyone old enough to both watch Teletubbies AND read the actual subtitles would be stoned out of their mind, I don't think that this is a bad thing. Lol 0 Share this post Link to post
Clonehunter Posted October 26, 2012 If the teletubbies always had subtitles like that, I'd consider watching it. 0 Share this post Link to post
