Top 10 Times My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Tackled Serious Issues
When i was 14 years old i had lost my mom due to stage 4 lung cancer and it was hard for me to deal with and i always and still do think its my fault i don't know why :(
@@foxfanAly2005 sorry for your loss
This show could single-handedly fix the mistakes of our past generations and grow children into mentally healthy adults
Hollywood media need to take a few notes especially since most nowdays include political ideologies instead of teaching kids important life lessons in order to be better prepared for a happy fullfilling adult life.
Unlike peppa pig
it sucks disney censored it so much
I discovered Bluey and TAWOG yesterday, do not regret anything.
Ikr, like I know Bluey is a kids show but I really relate to it and it’s hilarious
There’s a moment in the episode “The Show” that really smacks you in the face.
Bluey and Bingo are putting on a play for Chili as a Mother’s Day present, and the show is about how Chili and Bandit met and started their family. When the play comes to Chili getting pregnant with Bluey, the kids represent it with Bingo as Chili wearing a shirt with a blue balloon stuffed under it. However, due to the kids getting carried away with the “kicking” of the baby making them bounce off each other, the balloon pops. Cut to the parents: Chili’s smile fades and turns to a stony sort of expression, and Bandit reaches over and takes her hand.
A lot of the more grown-up viewers take this to mean that either Chili had a miscarriage before having Bluey (thus making her a rainbow baby), or it reminds Chili of/foreshadows Brandy’s infertility.
Wow! Talk about amazing foreshadowing! I always wondered why Chili got upset during that scene and Bandit took her hand. I have to say though that a friend told me and I loved it! :)
Omg I never noticed that
Okay so I literally started watching this video with saying "If they don't talk about 'The Show' and Chili's miscarriage then ima riot" and sure enough it wasn't even an honorable mention. I guess maybe because everything on this list is more straight forward and/or not as subtle about whatever subject it's tackling in the episode and idk if it's confirmed that that scene in 'The Show' us what we think it is, but I also think that it was meant for the right people to see and understand it. If others understand it, great. But if the people who have gone thru that awful experience get what that scene represents for them, then that's what really matters 💗
The bedroom episode also hint to miscarriage as Chili is seen trying not to cry and Bluey holds her hand.
I think the miscarriage theory happened when after Bingo was born. There probably was plan for a their baby but it didn’t happen
Oh mercy, I was seeing if anyone mentioned this. The first time I ever saw this episode, I was sitting on the couch, watching with my little one, and that moment unexpectedly popped up. The hand grab and look in their (well animated) eyes probably only last 1-2 seconds but is so instantly recognizable and powerful if you know. I had tears streaming down my face and had to explain to a confused youngster that Bluey is a wonderful show for both kids and adults, and there are some things that she might not understand until she's older.
I'd like to point out that this show has such a unique way of portraying parents. Especially Chili. Chili has shown numerous times during the series that she likes to be by herself. She takes time for herself, takes walks by herself. And the show never portrays it as strange. Chili's allowed to be alone and not have it framed as though she's not motherly for it. Gives her such a nice and unique personality.
Agreed. There’s even an episode, I forget which one it is, that has Bluey asking if her mom doesn’t love her or is mad at her because she needs time to herself and it’s explained that sometimes moms need time to themselves and that doesn’t mean that they don’t love you
@@awaterwitch Sheepdog. Season 3, Episode 11. I love that episode. I like how it also explores the idea of the community when the neighbour, Wendy has to get involved and sort out Bandit’s mullet while Bingo and Bluey play with Judo.
Those rats are Sooo kickable
@@thefastcommenter7774 So are you honestly
@@Elo_28420 Lol
When cocos mom said “you’re doing great” it looks and feels like she talking directly to the parents. My mom and I watched it many times with my baby sister and it never fails to make my mom tear up
To everyone out there you really are doing great just keep going at your own pace
Baby Race is probably my favorite episode. Fairytale and Rain are tied for close second.
"Baby Race" is a real contender for my favourite episode. I see so much of my wife in Chilli: with our first child she was tracking progress and almost competing with other mums in group. With our second, eleven years later, older and wiser, she's now Bella, CoCo's mum, the experienced hand at group and much more about letting our second child "run his own race".
Alright, who is cutting onions?!
i remember crying to that episode
I have a 6 month old son and I sob everytime I see that episode. The end when Bluey walks and Bingo says "I think she saw something she wanted" gets me crying even harder!
These dogs are the cutest. The way they bond and connect with one another is just unbelievably wholesome. This show tackles serious issues, and that’s one way to tell animators, storyboard artists, etc, all did their assignment.
I'm 16 and I love this show!
@@BlueMoonRaccoon016 I'm 21 and I love this show!
and its australian
Bluey is way better then Peppa in my opinion
Among us
They also discipline their kids without punishment. It shows gentle parenting and easier solutions. In some shoes they will laugh and let the kids go crazy and it's all fun and games. While if discipline is represented on tv, kids will understand that their parents aren't being mean, and things have to be learned in a gentle way.
Or private time. They go stay with grandma in some episode. Implying the mom and dad want some personal time together
Those rats are very kickabale
@@thefastcommenter7774 ?
I agree so much
Rusty: "Why did you come to this school?"
Me: Oh, here's the part where ADHD shaming comes in
Rusty: "Was there something wrong with your old school?"
Me: *tearing up* Good job, Rusty
Yeah. He's my favorite.
I have ADHD, I used to get bullied by almost everyone in school for it
@@Frieowksf1293 when ever you get laughed at, maybe read stuff about Dav(e) Pilkey, he has ADHD and his story is quite inspirational.
I have ADHD too me and my mom do so it’s nice to see a kids show talk about something like this this is my favorite episode
@꧁ᗩᗩᗩ꧂ to anyone seeing this comment, Dav is the author of the captain underpants/ Dogman books. I work in elementary schools and have read all the Dogman books, they are surprisingly good
Infertility was just such an amazing episode it messed me. The way this show tackles big issues in subtle ways is something missing in adult shows let alone kids
I am infertile, but I raised one of my nieces from the time she was 10 until now. My niece absolutely loves Bluey. It's a place for her to mentally unwind after a hard day. A little while ago she sent me the episode "Onesies" because she thought I'd appreciate it. I did, and I told her so. I didn't tell her how much I cried over it. She's a good kid.
Grow up
@@bubblybeluga1178………
Education not indoctrination
There is still hope
@@adrenalinbemyride Wtf do you mean
I love the episode with jean-luc
That episode really pulled no punches... the premise of the episode is the heelers are on holiday and bluey meets a French speaking labrador named jean-luc...bluey cannot understand a word he says but that doesnt stop them from having fun every day until Jean and his family pack up and leave the camp ground..bluey searched for him until mom said she saw him leave..that made bluey upset and not understand why he had to suddenly leave...in a way the message of this episode ties in with death but it more focused on friends and how special they are
"Special people come into our lives and stay for a bit and then leave but you can always look forward to seeing them again one day as the universe is very mysterious"
And when bluey saw Jean-luc some years later was the cherry on top cause they rekindle their friendship
I tear up every time that episode plays
I love jean-luc
I love that episodeee
Really same im still in school and am very worried about graduating. I always get anxiety when good things end. Idk if its a truma thing but im sure ill work out the reasoning it will just take time. I remember sitting on my bed lissening to memories by maroon five and rembering a memory. Ironic right
It was the end of primary school and we had just had our fun day and was on the bus back. Me and my bestie were resigning the lyrics and putting them into our lives. It hits me now that i was crying all night about that day ending. Our last this, our last that. Its only this year where i have started feeling sadness for everything ending.
This year grade 9 was the best year of my life so far. Sure i had days where i was sitting in the car perents screaming at each other about money and me keeping my head strait and not crying. Holding it in. Its gotten to the point that its just me and myself. Laughing at each other. Forcing myself to get up and work through my own feelings. I feel as though everyone around me knows whats going on its become so normal. But i never told a soul whats going on deep down. Its hard when the only person you can share to. My mum . Will get upset if i talk about how i feel.
My mother is not a mean soul never seen her lash out any me or my brother. Adults yes. But i remember a point in my life when the world went slient. I remember feeling so upset i had to run outside and gag. The day she told me the truth… will continue when im not crying lov u bluey!
Watch the episode in French.
Hey who’s chopping onions
Trampoline hits me hard. The girls trying to keep their dad around, only for Bandit to eventually leave for work after giving Bluey some parting advice. I first saw the episode the day after my dad passed away, so the scene where Bluey says goodbye to her dad as he disappears down the street brought tears to my eyes.
I'm so sorry :( I hope you and your family are alright
I am so sorry for your loss! My prayers are with you at this difficult time.
Haven't watched te episode yet, but by the synopsis of the episode it already hit me, my dad also passed away. Strentght boy, we are with you
It's not that deep. You're just in your feelings
@@williammccormick984 If you have never experienced loosing a close friend or family member, you have absolutely no right to say that. If you have, you have downright messed up feelings. Either way, you should not say that and I hope you don’t actually mean that. If you actually mean that, wow. Just wow.
It’s time Bluey gets the recognition it deserves. 💙
call me crazy i think Bluey could actually this generations Bear in the Big Blue House
@@knottyorchid1212 make that dogs in the big wide world!
There’s also Big City Greens where despite the comedy it has, it too also has some slices of life moments
Heelers = healers ❤️
I’m constantly amazed at the emotional depth the show manages to pack in in only 5-8 minutes
this is the power of good story boarding, writer , directions and such.
My child is 8 and has ADHD. So them getting to see Jack really helped them with school and friends. It also felt more personal because my child's name is Jack.
I have ADHD as well and I was born with it and I'm 22 and I like this show my friend was showing me this show and it's so adorable!
@@Lumithegoat209 feels relatable right? My friend has it and me and our other friend all have similar things, we all like the show and the way the characters handle and explain the situation really makes me realize that the people who make the show are regular people just like us
When I saw Jack, I smiled, and nearly cried. My first thought in my head was "Look! He's like me!"
Even though I'm watching with my little sister, who adores the show, I think this representation is amazing.
So sweet.
@@Lumithegoat209 ur 2 times older then me
The one that got to me talked about FOMO. Bluey was invited to a party, and Bingo felt left out because she wasn't. So she found a feather and pretended it was a magic wand that made things heavy. She tells the family that she "made her own fun" to pass the time. As someone who deals with loneliness and FOMO myself, I appreciated how they discussed this concept to kids.
Just curious, what's FOMO?
Fear of Missing Out
@@precious_muse Oh, thanks!
Oof, Bingo was a mood in that one. When we were kids, my little brother was always invited to birthday parties. Outside of family, I was lucky to get invited to at least one a year. Had to keep passing the time trying to play with my dolls.
I’ve never heard of FOMO before so I looked it up and I just wanted to thank you for teaching me something new.
Bluey does what Peppa can’t do…teach children things and yet entertain adults along with it.
I made the comparison to Pepa too even as an American that barely watched the show. My kid sister loved Pepa pig, though I wish this had been airing instead. Kinda reminds me of the seamless way Sesame Street teaches kids things.
Bluey is the antidote to Peppa.
And it doesn’t teach kids to jump in muddy puddles and make fun of your parents for being ‘big’
@@METALUNICORNLTD and Caillou. All Caillou taught my cousin is that if she throws a big enough tantrum, she’ll get her way.
I do love the bit where Coco’s mom tells Chilli she’s doing great as a mom.
It reminded me to keep telling my wife that she is an awesome mom whenever she was feeling sad that she wasn’t doing well enough at raising our daughter.
Hope your wife's doing okay! ❤️
hope you also raise your daughter lol
@@MKulia_fan thanks, she’s doing much better now. Sometimes you just need to hear from someone that you’re a great job at raising your kid.
@@allaynavogel2467 of course, I wouldn’t be a good dad if I wasn’t. My wife actually came in to the kitchen a few days ago while I was feeding her to randomly tell me how lucky our daughter is to have such an awesome dad. Even though I already know I am, it’s still comforting to be told that sometimes.
I know this hyper-sentimental thing has become a modern norm, but comforting yourself with nice words won't solve anything on a large scale, just give you a superfluous comfort zone. There is nothing pragmatic there.
Another thing I notice is that you comfort her when she's irrationally sad, and she only praises you when you're doing the job.
I'm not interested in who you are or their life, I only think about the comment you gave, since its a social red.
Baby race hits me hard every time. A lot of mom's feel guilty and feel they aren't doing enough or great. But I love the message behind it 💙
"Maybe you saw something you wanted." *cue the waterworks*
I'm not even a mom and that just hits me.
I am in my thirties without kids, but I absolutely love Bluey. The writers know how to touch your core without over elaboration.
"I'm in my thirties with no children"
American white woman? Let me guess, you treat your dogs like your children to reflect that innate trait, not realizing that's also animal neglect.
Sometimes you just need to watch shows aimed at younger audiences. I love doc mcstuffins and I am way above the age range lol.
I seriously don't think Bluey was only made for children. It is also made for adults who need to honestly relax from everyday things. I have come to the daily habit to put one episode on every evening to fully watch without distractions. And when I browse tiktok in bed later I watch some snippets. But the full episode (without any surfer game underneath) is just for me.
@@tinas_hotdog_sophie >Tiktok
There is when you know something cringe is happening
@@fer_nanda4509 if you have the right mindset (and a good fyp) one can handle tik tok easily.
As someone who is unlikely to have biological children as the result of a medical condition, I felt truly touched by Onesie, because it touched on the subject with such sensitivity and compassion, with honesty but also tact and I hope that it showed at least one person that often painful and alienating reality of watching those around you begin their family when you cannot.
And seeing how badly Brandy wants kids of her own does make me hope in the future they make an episode where she decides to adopt a child of her own
Having gone through YEARS of anger, jealousy and an inability to deal with anyone else having children because I was facing failure after failure at getting pregnant myself - I absolutely get it. I absolutely understood why it was too painful for her to be around her sister who was able to have TWO perfect babies when she was not able to have any. I hope there's something good in store for her, even if it's adoption,surogacy or just finding peace with not ever having kids. It's heartbreakingly AWFUL to want a child so badly that it causes you physical pain..I was SO LUCKY to have had the money, the support and finally, the good fortune to have an amazing group helping me medically- I finally got my very own rainbow baby after SEVEN YEARS of trying, in March of 2021. He's already a toddler now, and I don't know where the time has gone. But I do know that we love to watch Bluey together every single day.
@@CraftyMagicDollz Oh my goodness your comment, I am teary eyed after reading. I truly feel so happy for you! My own Mother had so much trouble conceiving for years before my Brother and I eventually came along (both rainbow babies)💜Your son is very lucky to have you and if no one's told you lately; You're doing great! 💕
@@williampulfer-melville8536 That would make an amazing episode
This show consistently floors me; I'm not a parent, but as I study child psychology the show surprises me by reinforcing a lot of the developmental psychology and behaviors I learn about, but with astoundingly relatable writing and realism. My classes made me feel ready to teach parenting, but this show makes me feel ready to practice parenting.
That last sentence has very Peter B. Parker "I'm so proud of you! Do I want kids?" energy 😂
I loved how in Baby Race Cocoa’s mom looks at “Chilli” but really looks at the audience, and thus at the parents watching.
I watch this more than my son 😂 the episode that made me bawl was the grandpa episode when he tells Chili that the lake used to be her favorite spot. Chili: "that was a long time ago" "no it was only yesterday" and the image shifted into Chili and her dad being younger again. I tear up at almost every single episode
That and the camping episode really made me cry like f😭😭😭
@@brandoncastillo_05 omg me too. I at least tear up every time my son is watching it lol
I don't blame you when I have kids my kids will watch this show along with shows like paw patrol and others
@@Matrix15999 paw patrol gets old so fast so good luck 😂 I can't even say the name without my son screaming and running to the TV.
Yeah I know what you mean my sister has a young kid right now and every time she hears a show she watches she's runs to the TV
As someone who never had a dad in my life, Bandit is dad goals. I love this show.
Bandit is the dad, bingo is the youngest daughter. True though, I'm jealous of how into playing with his kids he gets, I really wish I had half his energy or imagination with my 2 kids
@@perrymoser3014 every father is different, no one needs to be an only idealistic standart
@@fer_nanda4509 true, the important part is to give your children the tools to deal with a lot of situations that happen in life, or at least, be supportive and understanding when they're passing through them.
Something most dads don't seem to understand
@@percydarkox7894 depends of the context
Sometime I wish I had a dad like him but then I realize I could be a dad like him someday
The episode about bingo separation anxiety hits me so hard in the feels. Whenever I watch it I don't necessarily see a child going through separation anxiety but rather, the process of a child growing up. The part that stung my heart the most was when bingo looked at the sun and said "I'm a big girl now, I've got to go." My one and only child is getting ready to leave for college, And while I'm so happy that she's grown up to be so wise and mature, It breaks my heart that she won't be in my home for too much longer. Then I remember that no matter how big she gets I'll always be her mother, And she'll always need my love and occasionally my advice.
Edit: wow I didn't realize so many people felt the same way about this. You guys are awesome!
When I first saw the show on the Disney Junior guide, I thought not much of it other than it being another charming and juvenile show for kids. Then I’m watching it with younger relatives of mine, realize that it’s not something Disney made, and found its messages to be very deep. In fact, I find them deep enough to wonder if kids were the SOLE demographic for this show. I have never watched every episode of Bluey, but I really commend how wholesome it is and the morals it teaches.
Originally the creater of the show wanted to do an adult version of something similar to pepper pig and one thing lead to another and now we have Bluey
Rather than "a kid's show" I've seen it described as "a family show" and I agree. The whole family can, and should, watch it.
I've also seen it described as "a parenting show".
The site is absolutely written with the parents in mind just as much as the children. It's why I don't get fatigued watching it with my 2 kids, when other more traditional kids shows I can hardly sit for more than one episode. Good shit stories with relatable characters rather than pure chaos or a catchphrase on repeat.
The thing that rang true to me about Army was that Jack, the kid who can't sit still, was most excited to be on sentry duty.
ADHD is, in my experience, a motivation game. So many things are demanded of you, and when your brain literally lacks the chemicals that allow you choose to sit still you upset a lot of parents and teachers who want you to sit still for their convenience.
But that's not the same thing as not being able to sit still.
Kids with ADHD don't goof off during fire drills, or when mom is sick, or when their friends are counting on them. And they pay attention when they're practicing soccer, and doing cool science experiments, and playing army.
People with ADHD aren't stupid. Being told to sit still in the car is stupid. They're just the only ones who don't put up with it.
Agreed. I've got the opinion that the name Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder doesn't actually fit what ADHD is. ADHD doesn't mean you can't pay attention; it's more accurate to say you can't regulate how much attention you're giving something. If it's something I'm not interested in, everything around me instantly becomes more appealing/more urgent/impossible to ignore. If I'm interested though, I'll start doing it and then all of a sudden it'll be eight hours later and I'll have forgotten to eat, drink or do anything but that one thing that's got my attention.
I felt so sorry for Jack when he was in the car and his sister and dad kept getting mad at him for not sitting still, like he's not bothering anyone, leave the kid alone.
Correction: Jack actually has a sister. And both her and his dad don’t expect much from him and make him feel obliged to do things he doesn’t want to just because they want him to and he’s not bothering anyone. It just seems a bit sad of them
@@Illogical_Tales Sorry, I'll change it. And yeah, it's pretty sad
@@cpcoultertweedles7216 oh wow, that explains what I've been feeling and doing. Could it be that I have ADHD? i'm 23 and I just connected the dots last year. Haven't had the chance to be diagnosed but if it is, that explains a whole LOT of my childhood/school memories
Oh my god, Onesies hit me right in the heart and showed me just how deep and amazingly written this show is. It truely is not just for kids 💖
There is a cure for infertility it's called utero transplant
I know that this is off topic, but your pfp made me smile, I love that show

Keep in mind that sometimes fertility issues can also result in miscarriage even pregnancy occurs earlier.
As someone who's neurodivergent and was a premie baby, those 2 episodes discussing it genuinely made me tear up.
Looool
While not exactly a "Serious Issue" I have to say my favorite episode is "Rug Island", the message is the importance of imagination and to never let go of your child-like wonder even after becoming an adult and specially if you have children; I remember hearing somewhere a phrase that goes something like: "You live childhood twice, once when you are a kid and the second when you have kids of your own" and I think this episode displays it perfectly.
Rug Island is my favorite episode
Same!
6:00
I have ADHD and that “I don’t know” really hurt me because we really don’t know why, it’s tough to even explain it even when you’re told you have ADHD, how is there a way to really explain it? I saw this episode and I wanted to cry because how much I’ve wanted to feel understood
And that’s why it’s amazing that adhd and other neurodivergent conditions are being represented in todays media! And personality I’m really happy that asia is also doing their part on the representation because it’s pretty strict in asia when it comes to “”””taboo subjects””””
Yeah
My older sister doesn’t understand something’s about it, so she kinda makes me feel bad about it.
Do you know mr jazs
A child isn’t meant to sit in a room for 8 hours a day with nothing but fluorescent lights and an overcredentialed, underf***ed authority figure talking at them with a skillset for killing their drive to learn.
Absolutely relatable. To be honest I might be undiagnosed ADHD or autism
in the episode ' army ' i noticed jacks dad wasn't angry with jack when he kept moving or got distracted and forgot his hat. jacks dad was very calm and gently refocused jack back to the question. i also understand how jack felt when he said ' there's something wrong with me ' (in the australian version jack says there's something wrong with him instead of somethings going on with him) at jacks age i thought my adhd was something that was going to hold me back forever. hopefully we get more episodes with jack, i love seeing adhd representation! i would love to see how they would handle trauma in a future episode.
Hopefully if bluey is renewed for more seasons, we might see an updated version of this list with the topic of adoption regarding brandy
And I hope they address just how hard, lonely and expensive that process is. It's not easy. And I'm so tired of everyone assuming it's the end goal if you can't have bio kids of your own... When people say "why don't you just adopt"- it makes me absolutely livid. I know several families who have gone through absolute hell trying to adopt even though they are well-off, hard working GREAT people. Adoption is not easy AT ALL.
@@CraftyMagicDollz Thank You!!! I can’t tell you how many people ask “why don’t you adopt” after finding out that my husband and I carry a fatal genetic neurological disorder (sadly after our daughter got diagnosed, Batten Disease CLN1). We still want kids but it’s hard and while it’s expensive as heck we still want to try in vitro (artificial insemination via sorting out affected embryos and sperm) if we can first. Not being able to have healthy kids normally creates a lot of difficult choices regardless of whether it’s in vitro, natural, fostering, or adoption and people love guilting the poor parents to be if it isn’t immediately “adoption”.
@@tarragoncake1556 Could you please explain further why adoption is not and option vs art. insemination? It seems to be that your issue goes beyond that the adoption agencies are more often than not corrupt. Do you fear the bond with your child is less when it has not grown within you? I genuinely would love to know as this is a topic I never been confronted with. (I always did consider adoption because the concept of pregnancy scares me.)
@@dundeecake my grandma adopted me i found out that sometimes people don't want to adopt because kids often come from bad homes where they can develop mental issues one of the most common is RAD which I have this is probably apart of why people don't want to adopt older kids
Aw that sounds like a really nice ep
That’s honestly my favorite thing about Bluey, that it’s not some Peppa pig rip off, or some fourth wall breaking type of education. It’s deep like stuff like this
The “Sleepytime” episode premiered just after my mother passed away. She was in a home while suffering from Alzheimer’s and she caught COVID while she was there. By that point, her memory was pretty much gone and I was still coming to grips with losing her that way. Then she was suddenly gone both mentally and physically and my emotions were all over the place. The end of that episode with Chilli saying that she will always be there for Bingo had me fully crying. It still rubs my emotions every time I see it, that scene at the end actually gives me an odd sense of comfort too.
I’m sorry for your loss 😔. R.I.P to your mom 😔. She is in a better place now.
I like how Jack is _aware_ of his condition. Lesser kid's shows would have the neurodivergent characters _completely blissful_ of their behaviors.
The best animation media are those that can tackle incredibly serious issues and do it very delicately balanced. Big kudos to the entire team that worked on the show, definatelly an example to follow.
I like when it looks rly cool with green colours
Like green ones
Such a great show (and I don’t even have kids)! The writers do a great job of weaving issues into episodes through Bluey and Bingo’s observation of adults too, like how they learn that romantic partners can become ‘enemies’ and make up again in the ‘Tradies’ episode.
One of the little things I love about the production of Bluey is that none of the kids who lend their voices to the characters are given public credit on the show or at places like IMDb. They want these young actors to have normal lives growing up, so they respect their privacy. I'm trying to imagine any show based in the United States doing that.
That's dumb.
My sister had an “early baby” 29 weeks. It was so hard for her to leave her 2 lb baby in the “fish tank”. Her baby girl had to stay there for 3 months and it broke my sisters heart. So it really hit home in the bluey episode when they say “you’ll have to be the bravest you’ve ever been.” Luckily now my niece is at home and doing well, growing big and strong.
This show is like when you go back to your childhood show and hate how poorly it’s written and executed, but I can imagine kids watching this show, and growing up and having kids of they’re own. Allowing their own kids to watch this show all over again, and still enjoy themselves.
One episode that got to me is when Bandit is trying to make Bingo's ducky birthday cake and gets upset when it doesn't turn out perfect. Bluey sees this and helps him clean up the mess without being asked and encourages him. When Bluey sees how much her dad appreciates her efforts, her tail starts to wag, and she continues to help clean. It was such a great showing of not only how kids pay attention to their parents emotions and learn from them, but also how it's ok for parents to express those emotions in front of their children.
I really started loving Bluey ever since I was introduced to Aunty Brandy
She really reminds me of my Godmother, she's a really heart-warming person, really awesome with kids, but can't have them as well. It was heartbreaking for me to learn this when I grew up, and seeing that one episode really got me thinking about her.
Love this cartoon so much
This series are really good, but what most impress me is the fact that they’re not only directed for children, but also to an adult audience.
And also with the fact that they are fun and cute!!
I watched the ADHD episode and I have ADHD and it so reminds me about my youth with the struggles and who I truthfully had as my friends to help me become stronger. I still struggle as an adult with it, but I’m very proud of Bluey showing a perfect example of the mental disability and helping kids know how to be friends with them and not bully them. ❤
I was a premature baby by two months and I had to be in incubation for a couple days. I recently watched the episode and it melted me
Dang, sure is interesting how a show like this can bring so many people together, and man are they good at tackling
I got mad at his dad when he said sit still. It’s something we adhd ppl can’t do! At least I can’t!
@@HimeNoKuri yeah, my friend has a hard time with that aswell, they also have adhd, it honestly felt like the dad didn’t know what was up or anything, I really hope Jack gets to see a therapist and has his parents get resources to help understand him
@@HimeNoKuri I’m actually the opposite really. Once I get comfortable, I stay.
The thing I love the most about Bluey is that it doesn't insult your intelligence. Like yes, the show is made for children, but it's also directed at the parents and shows some adult-oriented moments [i.e. adults drinking alcohol + being hungover, discussion of vasectomies, etc]. The show is realistic, which is arguably the best thing about it
"Copycat" is by far my favourite episode. No other kids show I've seen ever dared to touch the topic of death [excluding anime, but that's a tangent for another day] so to see it be addressed directly and not sugarcoating it made me truly appreciate what this show does and it actually made me cry the first time I saw it
I feel like the inclusion of these serious topics is amazing because not only is it teaching kids about these types of things, but it’s also making it enjoyable for parents to also watch while their kids watch it. Most shows/movies only tend to do dirty jokes that’d fly over the kids heads, but these genuinely is meant for both parent and child audience
I was diagnosed with ADHD very early on when I was a kid. When I watched "Army" and saw Jack with the struggles he was going through, I teared up a bit. Seeing the struggles I went through myself as a kid in a cartoon, it was humanizing. Validating.
The episode that really got me was when Bluey came across a bird that she later found out that it died
And then later used creative play to try to further understand the situation. Even when Chilli tried to change the results, Bluey said she wanted it to play out the same way. It’s a good way to show how children use play to understand and cope even in difficult situations.
That same thing happened to me as an adult once. I was living with a friend at the time and somehow an injured bird got in the apartment. I was going to just bring the bird back outside but, my heart just wouldn't let me do it. I did a lot of searching on line about how to get the help of some wild life people to come help out. From the way I described the bird, the person I contacted told me it was still young and showing signs of being thirsty. They instructed me to go to the store and buy grapes and squeeze them, dripping little grape bits into the bird's mouth. We made an arrangement that I could put the little bird in a backpack with a small hand towel opened slightly to get the air in and leave the backpack outside my work and the person would come and get it. I did all that only to find a text after work that the bird had died in my backpack. It was just a common robbin, nothing exotic or extra beautiful. But it meant something to me. I know in my heart that I am not a perfect person but, I tried to save that baby bird and at least it's last hours were not spent hungry, thirsty or out in the wild. It's like Bluey said "Sometimes it's just out of our hands." I know one thing though, I won't forget that little robbin and that even as an adult taking care of even the smallest or possibly insignificant creatures still matters. I am glad I got to take care of that hurt little bird for a night because it shows compassion.
As a young parent I LOVE this show. It has jerked a few tears out of me a few times even. I was more excited for the new season than my daughter haha
Bluey is one of the small shows that are intriguing to children and adults. They sprinkle adult jokes throughout the series, they have a pleasant animation style, and provide good content for children. Bluey is one of the best shows ever.
The last one hurt the most for me, as just in October I was to take care of this little injured baby bunny. I had named him/her Rini as it means Little Bunny in Japanese. She had a head injury that i did all i could to help him recover from but by the next morning she was gone. There was nothing i could’ve done to save her, the little guy was too small and too hurt to heal as fast as the injury was killing him. I had lost pets before, of course i have at my age but that little bunny broke me more than i could’ve possibly been ready for. He was so so young and hardly got to live the life she should’ve, which hurt more than losing pets who knew how much they were loved.
Exact same situation for me.. it was sad
I’m still mad that people call this show “okay” and Peppa “A GREAT MASTERPIECE”
the camping episode with jean-luc hit so hard for me, especially the ending scene where bluey and him reunite. one of my classmates moved back to her country and i wondered if i'd ever see her again. all of a sudden years later, she messages me on social media
sometimes people add valuable moments to your life and never come back, but other times you're lucky enough to meet them again :)
For right now, my number 1 most affecting episodes are "Baby Race" and "Sleepytime" - I only have one kid right now, but I have definitely had those concerns of "Well, shit, am I doing enough to make sure my kid develops properly?"
My sister sometimes worries about how she’s going with raising her kids. I made sure to send her that clip of Coco’s mum reassuring Chilli.
Same, I love my kids but I don't make enough time for them most days, between work and trying to secure a future for my family. I'm exhausted and don't have the energy to play as hard as I'd like. I feel like a failure some days, but when my daughter tells me I'm the best, and how much she loves me it always make me ugly cry once I have a minute to myself. They understand so much more than we realize, I'm just happy they both know I'll always be there whenever they need me.
I have always said Bluey is my favorite show since I first ever saw it. I have noticed in the past couple of weeks that a wide range of people from various ages enjoy this show, and I can see why. It not only can help younger viewers, but it can help parents as well. Even teens, saying this as one myself, it can help us learn or remember things that could help us through life. It’s truly an amazing show, and I love it.
Brandy is relatable if you are single, gay, or if you can't have kids. There was a lot to unpack from that episode.
My grandchildren love this show and so do I. We've all learned a great deal from watching it. I'm sad to say, the kids often say that they wish their daddy was more like Bluey's dad and didn't yell at their mom so much.
My favorite episode was the one where dad takes the kids to the pool because mom is taking too long to get ready. They have fun but keep realizing they forgot something at home like towels, sun screen and even snacks. When mom shows up later with everything they needed they realized how much she does and how hard she works to make sure they have everything they need wherever they go. That's every mom I've ever known, the unknown hero of the packed bag!
That’s honest sad though.. all kids deserve to have a dad like bandit as the bare minimum
@@BobaDailyForever hah, yeah, as a person without a dad really, that’s sooo true
@@BobaDailyForever Bandit is a liberal dad, just the clown of the family. Not everyone needs someone like that.
And what the inicial comment say is just feminism
Regarding Brandy's troubles conceiving, red heelers have a relatively high instance of infertility as a breed. Bluey's writers are working on so many levels
Me and my sister are grown up but when we saw the bird episode we both turned and both looked distraught. We exclaimed that we thought this was a happy kid show. The reasons why I adore this show so much now is because it adds a beautiful layer of realism to it, giving the audience touching and moving moments. I bawl my eyes out at a few that hit closer to home and I hope they continue making this show. ❤
I love this show so much its not only entertaining and educational it's really adorable
This show is the epidemy of a good children show.
"neurodiverse kids don't often see themselves represented on screen." As someone who was born with mild aspenger's, this hits home 😔😔
Love how litteraly every age group enjoys Bluey
Yep, any age, young kid, kid, teen, adult, parents, grandparents, anyone really, it truly is interesting
It's like The Little Prince of animated shows
As a kid I had really bad separation anxiety....I couldn't go to sleep overs, full school days, or even when my parents went to work....some days I even went to work with my mom..other kids knew about this and would say I was a crybaby and that made me sad...cause it was something I really couldn't control or understood myself..it's nice to see kid shows talking about stuff like this so kids like me wouldn't have felt so broken or different
I think the episode "Camping" can also be really significant to kids because it showcases the language gap, and even though you don't speak the same language as someone, you can still have a bond. The ending is also the most adorable thing ever.
Bluey's got to be one of the best modern cartoons ever. It doesn't just serve to keep kids distracted with brain-melting colors and really stupid humor, it actually seems to help teach very positive things without going overboard, and it also helps teach some things to parents too. I'm shocked to even see a show this good and mindful existing today.
The scene of Brandy reaching out to Bingo as she runs off to play immediately reminded me of the scene with baby Bluey taking her first steps in the kitchen and reaching out for Chili and Bingo’s comment of “Maybe you just saw something you wanted.”
It’s a swift kick in the gut to put the two together but gosh the shows writers and artists know how to make people cry.
What makes extra sad about Copycat is how it is the only moment that shows representation of a budgerigar in Bluey. I just really wish that at some point, Bluey have more budgies appearing, ones that are alive and completely healthy. Considering that it takes place in Australia, it's made in Australia, and budgerigars are native to Australia. But still, Kudos for Bluey for discussing about death, albeit the creature that dies had to be one of my favorite birds. Bluey isn't the first show aimed at preschoolers that I saw that had an episode about death that had to be a budgie. That reward has to go to Arthur.
They depicted a live healthy "bin chicken"
Bluey is such a good show. My younger siblings watch it all the time.
The frustrating thing dealing with bullies is that usually you can’t do shit because school staff either can’t or won’t do anything about it
I highly agree! And it also hurt that growing up, my schools often blamed the victim instead of the bully!
My bully was abused by his father, so of course school staff cannot do shit because it meant he would get beaten. But what about me? "oh kids are kids, let him be" or "you're doing stuff to make him angry" or "or he probably likes you!". I'm glad I could get into another high school, I wouldn't have survived other three years in that shitty school.
#5 definitely hit me in some feels.
Some of us did not grow up with good friends like Rusty...
For me, "Curry Quest" was the episode that hit me the most. Since I felt the same way as Bingo with her dad, because mine always worked far away from home and has the same personality as Bandit. Always makes me cry.
A clip from “onesies” randomly showed up in my feed yesterday so I went to look it up and it took me a lot to not get emotional. I was faced with a high possibility of not being able to have kids when I was younger so I never really thought about it. Now that I’m a young adult it sometimes eats away at me, especially with people who think it’s just a minor inconvenience or even a “perk”. Very sweet episode
I'm from Australia 🇦🇺 this show is one of the best out there yep it shows issues and how it's OK because u get through them. And the love u can have for Ur kids. Plus it's a typical Aussie family
The infertility episode always makes me cry. As someone whos infertile this episode was very well made.
I am 21 and still extremely far away from having kids of my own, but Bluey reminds me of my younger sister and I, it makes me miss the days when life was simple and didn't revolve around money, or other adult situations. It is just sweet and wholesome with the cutest dogs!!
I'm an American Grandma, 4 granddaughters , the 3 and 6 year olds live with me and their parents, there are so many charming aspects to this beautiful show. My baby girls use alot of the slang words too, it's too adorable 😁
During separation anxiety my sister had a full on melt down crying about how sorry she felt for bingo, it was beautiful
So for Army, we had suspicion that our kiddo had ADHD. We started watching Bluey and going through it again, she tells me that Army is her favorite episode. I ask her why and she couldn't quite put her finger on it. Around the same time she was officially diagnosed.
I know it was brief, but the moment that implied a miscarriage between chili and bandit was a tough spot too
In the episode Yoga Ball, Bandit bounces Bluey and Bingo on his yoga ball, and rough houses with them. He roughs around a little too hard with bingo, and she kind dissociates and eventually is overwhelmed so goes to hide. I have autism, and I have done the exact same thing she went through without EVER knowing why or what it was. It literally felt like I was looking in a mirror. I love that episode with all my heart.
I swear this is one of the most thoughtful & well written shows ever. Sleepy time and the image of Chillie + her dad on the dock gets me every time !
The infertility one actually made me tear up a lil there. And I don’t even watch bluey I’m just going offa this 😭
So much thought and love goes into this show, the storylines, the emotion, the humour, and even the animation it self. The show is just all around stunning.
as a kid I had terrible separation anxiety, I couldn’t even be in the back of the car without my mom. I love how they represented everything
I learned about prematurity very early about five years ago because every year on my birthday my mother tells me stories of when I was born and being in the hospital for 3 months after.
Hope you feel better the hospital is not a good place to be
@@darmanitansdad1470 I know it’s been 20 years and we are fine.
Shows like Bluey, Arthur, Wordgirl, and others are surprisingly really good at bringing up more serious topics without making it too dark, and I just find that amazing. It shows that “family friendly” doesn’t really mean “just for kids,” and I wish there were more shows like them. 💖
This show is so inclusive, I can’t wait for more shows like this to come out, the world is coming around great in 2022
I was babysitting my neighbors kids and we ended up watching Bluey and a show called Tumbleleaf. Honestly both shows are so beautifully animated with unique styles. I think those shows are even better than some of the ones I grew up watching.
As a 22 year old, I have grown up with amazing shows teaching kids life lessons whether it's Sesame Street Bear in the Big Blue House or even Arthur
And I'm very happy to see Bluey be a member of those types of shows
We need more educational shows that give life lessons to think about
I’m a teen as of right now, and I love Bluey. It’s so wholesome and puts serious issues in a family friendly manner. I wish this show was on when I was younger.
I'm a grown ass man and the Run your own race episode hit home. When she said your doing great I teared up. Felt like a weight lifted off me as a dad
I watch Bluey more than my younger siblings, I’m technically a “legal adult”😂. And I always tell my (also adult) friends about Bluey and how it teaches so many lessons and life scenarios in such a beautiful natural way. Unlike other shows that shoves it in the audience’s faces making it too obvious that they are trying to pull the “inclusion/life lesson” card. To the point where it just doesn’t feel natural.
You’re a man baby. Grow up
Bluey is one of the only shows which tackle serious issues with respect every time.
I like to think that kids 20 years from now will find this nostalgic and I'm all in for it
"early baby" is one of my favorites cause i kinda connect with it the most. i was born premature, and was incredibly small as a baby. weighed 1 pound and 10 ounces according to my parents.
i'm so thankful i'm still alive to this day
I watch this with my niece and nephew a lot and it is a unique show. The messages are prominent but never preachy. The parents are believable which is something I never thought I would say about animated dogs. Some of the episodes hit harder after my dad passed and sometimes even the adult in the room needs to hear what they have to say on this show.
I loved the little conversation between Bandit and Fido in Perfect where Bandit is talking about having a vasectomy. Apparently it's been censored for the Disney version and they're talking about teeth now, which is a real shame.
I think that on of the biggest reasons behind Bluey's success is that it doesn't talk down too its intend audiences or make them feel stupid for not understanding what they are talking about.
