Bluey

My 6 year old is obsessed and so am I. So good to have a kids show from Australia with aussie themes and humour. Congratulations to all involved with this show, you deserves to "sit and watch the cricket"

I created an IMDB account just so I could say how fabulous this show is.

Simply impossible to explain this show. Nothing I write will do it justice. I've been around since The Magic Roundabout, The Flumps, Captain Pugwash, Tom and Jerry, Scooby Doo... Nothing from that era, or today's attempts like Peppa Pig, or anything in-between, come anywhere near to the standards of Bluey.

I sit with my young daughter (not that you need a young one to watch this,) and I'm laughing hard one minute, and fighting off the tears the next.

The creators, in fact the whole team from the story writer, to the animators, to the sound and music team, and especially to the actors... And every single other person involved... Are purely fantastic human beings.

If you listen from a distance it doesn't sound scripted half the time, it just sounds like an amazing family having fun. Most of the stories hit home, hard. Every character has amazing depth and are so loveable. Every single episode has something unique and amazing in it.

What did I learn from this? These kids are awesome.

Is what I hear regularly from my three year old. He see the show being about Bingo! :)

The whole family loves it. Plenty of great jokes for parents and the kids love it.

I'm one of the few Americans in this review section, since this particular cartoon, which originates from Australia, didn't premiere in the USA until 9 September 2019 on the Disney Junior. I've been hearing rave reviews for the series, so I was excited for it to premiere. It went way beyond my expectations.

The series is the perfect show about families. There are no stereotypes or cliches; for example, Bandit (Blue's father) isn't a bumbling buffoon, Chili (Blue's mother) isn't a subservient weakling, Bingo (Bluey's sister) isn't a bratty half-pint, and Bluey isn't a girly-girl, for once. THANK GOD. We need more tomboy characters in mainstream preschool shows.

The family is realistic. They aren't an abusive, dysfunctional family, or an overly perfect family, but they reflect real families. Sometimes they don't get along, but they always love each other.

My most favorite thing about the series is that it depicts play in a positive light. Young kids should go outside, play and just let their imaginations run wild instead of staying inside and watching crappy Elsagate channels on YouTube. Almost every episode emphasizes playtime in a grand manner. For example, a game of keeping the balloon in the air later becomes a matter of life and death. It's really fun and exciting. It reminds me of shows like Recess, Codename: Kids Next Door, Hey Arnold, Craig of the Creek and Clarence.

Since Elena of Avalor and The Lion Guard are sadly both ending after season 3 (check the MooseZeeOnNickJr Facebook page), this show and TOTS are the current best Disney Junior shows, even though this show is an acquired property and not a Disney original. The show already has a wide Australian fanbase, and hopefully this will become a huge hit in the United States of America, hopefully it will beat out Peppa Pig and dethrone that wicked tyrant once and for all.
