Unlike most animated series produced at Xilam, Mr. Baby is more adult-oriented, despite airing as part of France 3's Toowam block. The English dub featured more risqué words, not heard in most French animated series, such as "hell", "ass", and "testicles".

Synopsis

The series focuses on the everyday life of Mr. Baby, who thinks and even talks like a grown-up, but also has an incredibly, severely sharp tongue. He also has an older brother, Rudy, a skater-like rebel, and an oldest sister, Claire, who is a teenager.

Translations

Originally from France on the publicly funded channel France 3, Monsieur Bébé was translated into America (as Mr. Baby).
