Germany has a number of iconic characters, including Bernd the bread, a depressed loaf of bread. Bernd is essentially the most depressing character from any children’s show ever written - however, he is a fan favorite. From his looks to his signature catchphrase… Everything about him is simply miserable. One of his most iconic catchphrases is ‘My life is hell’. We have to admit that it’s rather strange to see such a depressing character in a children’s show.
Even so, there are a number of Bernd the bread statues plastered around the country, showing off just how popular he actually is.
