    It was rather common when Peppa Pig was big where American children would get slightly British accents because they would pick it up from the show.

      I did something similar to myself when i was preteen because i got bullied for my incredibly particular regional merkin accent. At the time I got really into westerns. I still talk like a stereotypical movie cowboy.

      I hear a similar thing has been happening with the Australian accent due to the popularity of Bluey

        And ironically, this is happening as the Australian accent vanishes thanks to American cultural influences.

        Take that Americans. Now your kids say "bins"
