I’ve watched 150 episodes of Bluey and have learned that a cartoon can make a grown man cry.
I strive to be as good a parent as Bandit and Chili are.
The episode that Bingo is having that wild space dream was legitimately visually impressive.
Episode where it's inferred (at least, I don't remember them directly stating it) that Chili's sister can't have children and it bothers her is the one that got me watery-eyed.
On the other hand, the hand puppet unicorn had me pissing myself laughing. "What's your favorite thing to eat?!" "Children..." "Oh.." "Just kidding!"
The staff on Bluey really care about the program, and it shows.
Watch Bojack Horseman, you'll see what cartoons can do to grown humans
The one with Chili's sister who can't have kids is a rough one. I did not expect that from a children's cartoon.
I mean... from the scraps of it I've seen when spending time with my relatives, it seems like that's probably because it depicts healthy parenting, which is a somewhat scarce resource in this day and age.
as someone who finds nearly everything my niece watches while I'm babysitting unbearable, Bluey is SUCH a breath of fresh air
Fkin love Bluey. Hey Duggee is class too.
I still stand that bluey is actually a guide to good parenting, pretending to be a kids program.
I'm quite a well educated and trained parent (or thought I was). The number of little tricks we've picked up from bluey is almost embarrassing.
I wonder what teen titans go can teach. I would erase their creators if possible.
