I appreciate the referral, however that article is not about Teletubbies per se; it is about toddlers watching TV in general. I routinely advocate against watching TV (especially news and violence) on my own program, however I also understand that for something as little understood as happiness, TV can be a very effective vehicle for education. We're not going to change viewer habits overnight; as long as children are still watching TV, its a step in the right direction that they watch programs genuinely designed to help them become happier.
Happiness,

Happiness? Or adverse behaviour, warped brains, slowed metabolism, educational hindrance, increased
ADHD, and depression?
This programme is made by the same people who make teletubbies. See this for what top Brit &
Harvard psychologists think about teletubbies:
