Cocomelon is a YouTube channel created by Jay Jeon which is dedicated to a mix of Aesop's Fables, educational songs, and nursery rhymes. The brand started out as a channel named checkgate in 2006, and was dedicated to releasing songs based on the alphabet. They would later rename themselves as ABCKidTV, with a movement from being dedicated solely to alphabet songs to including a variety of song content and then again to their current-day moniker of Cocomelon. Later videos (and the ones that the public are likely to be most familiar with) focus on the adventures of a toddler named JJ, his older brother TomTom, his older sister YoYo, and their parents, plus some adventures in preschool.Perhaps thanks to the overwhelming power YouTube's algorithm has on the younger generation, the channel has slowly become a dominant force across the site. As of 2022, Cocomelon is the second most subscribed YouTube channel in history. And this is in addition to being readily available on streaming services like Netflix and creating a huge merchandising machine. You can access the channel here.In 2021, Netflix ordered a three-season cartoon based off the series, titled "Cocomelon Lane". The series is expected to premiere in 2023.

No Plot? No Problem!: As this show is music-centric, there doesn't seem to be any discernible plot.

Parents as People
 Cocomelon (Web Animation) / int_20989d05
comment
Parents as People: JJ's parents appear to be Happily Married, and have a few numbers devoted to their marriage ("Daisy Bell (Bicycle Built For Two)" and two different iterations of "Skidamarink"). These double as Parental Bonus, since they're the only ones who would appreciate the significance of two parents who, despite the troubles of child-rearing, are still deeply in love.

Early-Installment Weirdness: Early videos on the channel were dedicated solely to teaching the alphabet, were in 2D animation, and featured none of the regular cast whatsoever.

Token Minority: For example, Cody is African-American, Nina is Mexican-American, Cece is either Chinese or Asian, and Nico, despite not having a stereotypical accent or personality, is rather Scottish-looking (due to his reddish hair).

Toilet Training Plot

comment
Toilet Training Plot: The "Potty Training Song" is a song about using the potty. It references what to do when you get a “funny feeling way down low�. In this short episode, J.J. learns from his older brother how to use the potty and J.J. gets a pair of underwear at the end of the episode.

Medium Blending: There was a brief period in the channel's history where a mixture of CGI and 2D animation were used in the videos. A notable example is this rendition of "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star", which had a CGI star interacting with a 2D animated cast.

comment
Living Toys: zigzagged. There are a number of animal characters (Pepe the pig, Mochi the monkey, Wally the wolf, etc) who correspond to stuffed animals JJ owns. However, we never see them coming to life, and the episodes never particularly discuss how we, as an audience, are meant to perceive them — even when those characters interact with JJ's parents.

Art Evolution: The channel has gone from 2D animation to a blend of CGI and 2D animation to completely CGI animation. Within the same medium, the CGI work was somewhat choppy at first, but has improved immensely since then.
