There's more Bluey on the way in the form of Bluey Minisodes! A new batch of 20 shorts will be released on Disney Jr. and Disney+ this July.

With Bluey fever still running hot, it makes sense to have shorts available until any official announcements of where the beloved animated series is going next. Bluey creator Joe Brumm wrote all the upcoming minisodes, which are produced by Ludo Studio, to hold fans over. A press release from Disney+ revealed the "Bluey Minisodes highlight funny and sweet moments featuring Bluey and Bingo, leaning into playful interactions and games that further explore the characters and world of Bluey."

I don't have kids of my own, but I'd like to thank this show for destroying Frozen (x200 watches of 1st half hour) and Paw Patrol from my niece's memory.

I didn't see it posted, but Ludo posted the full episode "Dad Baby" to YouTube a few days ago in the official Bluey channel bc Disney decided to not air the episode nor stream it.

After watching it with my kid I'm trying to figure out what the controversy was. I thought it was fantastic and hilarious

I read the far right was up in arms about the dad "giving birth" thing and that Disney definitely doesn't need or want any more controversy in that area.

Did you see that from any official Disney source? Frankly that sounds like something from a message board. After watching the episode I assumed it was due to how to rate it, kind of like when they rated Aristocats higher and people were saying it was banned. Instead of giving it a higher rating and splitting it off, they just didn't show it.

That sounds pretty typical of Disney. Meanwhile in "The Rescuers", the main villain shoots at kids with a machine gun.

Disney has refused to air a couple episodes as they were originally created over the seasons. Some because they contained simple bathroom humor.

Realized last night that song when everyone is dancing at the wedding is the techno version of the song at the end of Dance Mode, also the same musician/DJ playing on the street in Dance Mode, playing guitar on stage in Markets, and DJing the wedding in The Sign.

Nah. And it's not that it was "banned", it just didn't adhere to their Y7 rating they tag Bluey with over here because it could prompt some unwanted conversations about where babies come from.

It's an all time episode though.

Anyone else think that in about 15-20 years, US Cricket will be a power all thanks to Bluey?

My 4 year old has asked me to play cricket with him everyday this week when I get home. All because of the Rusty episode introducing him to it.

Yeah. It's hilarious and probably some of the best TV made for any age group in the last 20 years.

Genuinely pretty shocked to see someone who spends a lot of time online that hasn't heard of Bluey at this point.

Grown man with 3 boys….

I haven't seen all the episodes (probably less than 30% of them)

But what I've seen has made me laugh histerically….and others where I've cried with just how touching and heartfelt they are….

If you think that's trolling, then i have bridge to Terabithia for sale.

I just wanted to know what it was and if it was worth watching as someone with almost grown kids.

I'm going to give it a go.

Best way to describe it is each episode has an upper story and a lower story. The lower story will appeal to the kids basic sense of humor (while also being funny to adults) while the upper story usually has a deeper meaning that kids won't get but you'll either get a chuckle out of or downright lead you to some tears in some cases.

There's a great video making fun of the creators "pitching" the show to a studio that sums it up perfectly. Something like:

Producer: "Oh, I see one episode is titled "Grandad", is that about a fun visit to Grandad's, right?"

Creator: "That's about an adult struggling to talk to their own parent trying to communicate that they need to take care of themselves because frankly they still need them but the parent is unwilling to listen or take it seriously."

Producer: "Oh, what about "Onesies"?"

Creator: "That's about infertility."

I'm mainly busting your balls. But also asking "what the **** is this thing? And no, I'm not going to look it up" is absolutely trolling for a response.

To answer you're question though, it's a show for everyone masquerading as a cartoon for little kids. It's wonderfully written to connect with little kids, older kids, and adults (whether they're parents or not, I'd argue). Features humor and universal experiences in nice, tight, six-minute packages. Won a ton of awards for design and music and story too. I know you like sports, so I'd start with Cricket.



Also Unicorse is the first episode in this longer video. He's my favorite minor recurring bit.

Well, it's a good way of getting an answer without having to look it up.

Random Bluey deep cut that we noticed, maybe someone else picked up on this but we didn't...

At the end of The Sign, the dogs who couldn't see are at the lookout and are looking through the binoculars for their new house. Instead, they find a house with a pool and we know what happens from there.

If you recall Helicopter in S2, Winton talks about his dad's house with the pool with the deep end and the shallow end. When the dogs who couldn't see are looking at the house with the pool my wife asked if that was Winton's dad's house. So we rewound.

There's an SUV parked in front of the house and sitting in it are Winton and the Terriers, and in front of the house are Winton's dad and the Terriers' mom. A few episodes back he was chatting her up in the pharmacy in TV Shop and that was her car parked out front (with a big dog and 3 little dog stickers on the back window). There's another car parked at the pharmacy with two big dog and one little dog stickers with one of the big dogs scratched out (presumably Winton's dad's car).

So everyone gets a happy ending.
