BREAKING. Why is Sonic the Hedgehog on KidsCo suddenly being broadcast in Chinese?


You're reading it here first.

''Mommy, what language is Sonic the Hedgehog speaking?''

Confused parents are alerting me that this is what their children are asking them today since it appears that Sonic the Hedgehog is broadcast on KidsCo (DStv 308 / TopTV 255) in. . . Chinese.

''My son was confused and he kept asking me, Pappie, what language is Sonic talking in?''

Well. We are living in the Chinese century. Kidding aside, I've asked and MultiChoice was super speedy with a response. MultiChoice tells me that its command centre are aware of the problem and are sorting it out. ''Current shows are in English now,'' MultiChoice tells me.
