DEEP DIVE: "Bear In The Big Blue House" | Revisiting 90s Television | aidan elizabeth 

A quick update! As of 10/19/2022, Bear In The Big Blue House is officially available for streaming on Disney+ There are still 9 episodes missing from its catalog, but this is still the biggest release of Bear In The Big Blue House episodes for streaming in HISTORY! Very exciting : )

For being someone who doesn't know much about this show, you explain things so well I could easily follow. I also love how much energy you have in your voice! It's nice to find people who have genuine interest in the topics they talk about and show it. You really deserve more recognition!

My sister and I are both neurodivergent and this was one of our favorite shows growing up even when it was too young for us. We’ve been introducing this to my nephew and he loves the songs 🥰. So happy to see this video!

Now that your analysis has made me remember that show, I find myself trying to be as warm as Bear when I'm in front of my class. Who would have known that Bear was going to unconsciously inspire me to be that kind of teacher?

I feel like the closest thing we have to Bear in the Big Blue House in 2021 is Bluey. Super healthy family dynamics with characters you love to love 💜🌸😊

Love the analysis. As someone on the spectrum, Bear in the Big Blue House was a huge comfort show for me growing up alongside Blues Clues and Little Bear. Heck, I still watch these shows from time to time even as an adult in their late 20’s. Looking forward to seeing more of your content c:

despite having grown up in the playhouse disney generation, i do have very few memories regarding bear in the big blue house, but hearing the clips of his voice made me realize i did still have that little part of my childhood with me. the show sort of reminds me of sprout which i just remember as being very calming especially around bed time because there was the star with nina. however, once you brought up the stage show i totally remembered seeing the show in the parks at a very VERY young age (around when my baby sis was an infant) and recently we found videos of the performances when we converted our home videos to digital files. i definitely do want to go back and revisit them now.

I grew up with the French version of this, its so weird to hear the songs in English! As a neurodivergent child I absolutely adored it. My favourite character was Pistache (Treelo).

I didn't realize how happy I'd be to find someone else who grew up in the big blue house. I watched the dvds and vhs tapes on loop for far longer than any other show I remember keeping up with. And I'm so happy that someone else had great memories with bear like I did. Thank you so much for making my day a little brighter

i watched BITBBH on dvds my mom got me when i was young and the show is such a comforting sight for me and i tear up watching it now. it was a major highlight of my childhood. i will never forget it.

Love this show so much, I have a very special connection to the goodbye song as when I was in high school my theatre friends and I would blast the song on our way home from cast parties. Still makes me teary eyed to this day. Awesome video!

I really really love this video.As a muppet fan i love all the information you put into it

I was born on July 5th 2008 in Exeter Devon UK and I remember watching Bear in the Blue House as a baby in 2008, which means Bear aired for a little longer here in the UK! And I'm 13.

Gosh, me and my brother were really into this show. We had episodes on VHS and even cassettes that we would listen to when we were far away from home (like visiting relatives) as a way of comfort. Your beautiful essay on it made me want to revisit it for nostalgia, I think it'll be a good time

my absolute favorite show as a child. i hadn’t ever thought about how my growing up with an anxiety disorder might have been aided by this show! my dream job would be to make something like this for kids now, so they could feel the same way i did when i saw these kinds of shows at their age. safe and understood :)

This video was absolutely lovely. This show has always meant so much to me. *HOWEVER* this show is also responsible for the first recurring nightmare I ever had because I did not overcome the fear of the dark I had because of THE DOG IN THE SHADOW PROJECTS LOGO until I WAS *SEVEN*

also the joy you get from revisiting this is something i would say is very similar to when i revisited little einsteins recently after i got my wisdom teeth out (my little sister even took a video of me being very excited during the theme song while being on so much pain medicine so good times)

you just have such a wonderful and natural talent for narrating these deep dive/analysis/story telling videos and it just makes me so happy

LOVED this video! I have only a few memories of watching this show as a kid but it was nice to revisit it. As always, super interesting topic done more than justice by your super interesting summary and take on it!

I loved Bear and the Big Blue House growing up that I went in my backyard and sang the Goodbye song looking up at the moon. I don't remember when I did this per se. If I ever had kids in the future, I might show them this program.

Bless the algorithm for leading me to this nostalgia magic ❤️

I still feel the desperate need to snuggle Bear. So warm and fluffy!

I love Bear he is my childhood hero I still have some DVDs I even wrote a story that had me living with bear and hanged out with the gang I used To Watch Bear heaps at my nans house as a kid and when she sadly passed of cancer in 2018 and Bear helped me heaps with her passing And he even had liked some of my TikToks and had posted two on his Instagram story and one on his Twitter and that really Ment the world to me I’ve always wanted to meet him and interview him and tell him how much he helped me And I love visiting the big blue house still to this day And I agree it should be on Disney + I also had a toy big blue house a plush of the characters and a bear in the big blue house plate that had everyone outside the house and ray and Luna where next to a rainbow I thank you for this video

would you ever consider doing a video on Between the Lions? because that show was my absolute jam as a kid also you should do a video explaining why Netflix's Dark Crystal deserves another season

Awesome! I also had a stuffed toy of bear, and I loved it. I used to chew the nose. I'm even tempted to buy a new one.

YES MY CHILDHOOD i remember watching this and jumping on the bed like crazy during the intro every time i loved this show

i wish i'd watched this more as a kid. it was magical. instead i decided to get traumatized by the hundred acre wood and all the bees in it. I really cannot understand how Bear is not on Disney Plus. especially considering that Disney purchased the rights to it. Thank you for making this love letter to an iconic part of any child of the 90s/early thousands. i loved Bear, the moon and the big blue house. i find it interesting that i have aspergers, but didn't get obsessed with the show in the same way. however if they did a big DVD release or disney plus release, i would now.

Thank you so much for this video! I love it! I ordered two bear in the Big Blue House DVDs off of Amazon I also wish Disney+ would stream it too.

I absolutely love this video- and I’m excited for more deep dives! Can’t wait for more! ALSo Could you make something on Between The Lions?? For me…that was my bear in the big blue house, everyday or even in the mornings before or after school my whole family would watch it. It was special for us.

Bear and the big blue house is coming to Disney plus October 19th

We couldn't afford cable growing up so I'd watch this show on VHS over and over. What a nostalgia bomb. Great video !

as a kid, I loved bear. he was a stable, emotionally intelligent caretaker, as opposed to on other shows, where the protagonist would be a “child like you” who needed to be taught life lessons. Bear was silly, but he could also be trusted to keep you safe and I loved that

4:05 Since you mentioned it, in one episode, Bear puts on a sweater and said It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood.

My childhood Disney show. My family & I even saw Bear when we went to Walt Disney World back in 2005.

petition to get this bad boy SOMEWHERE online to be streamed

I loved Bear in the big blue house as a kid. I still have a Trilo plushie. The show aired alot longer in my country ( I think I catched an episode by chance just three years ago).

Omg he still plays bear puppet style now 💖💖💖😭🐻

Ironically speaking, the show is now finally coming to Disney Plus! It will be coming next month on October 19th!

This was definitely a favorite show for me as a kid. So much so that my mom made not one but 2 cakes for me based on it. I was only diagnosed as autistic when I was 19 but I did love it's calming atmosphere. Nowadays Noel Macneal is my icon, he is the reason why I have set out on the path that I have. I wanted to make sure kids of today had that same sort of understanding and genuine media and that's why I started writing children's picture books. I wish I could tell him that I am a published author now. also: I had toys and plushies of all the characters but they are in storage somewhere I think my birth father has them and I'm never gonna get them back sadly.

I love bear and the big blue house too, the one thing about that show and that Sesame Street also does and many of today’s children shows don’t do is that they respected their audience, most if not all of these kids shows today don’t respect their audience at all.

Bear in the Big Blue House is now available on Disney Plus

Fantastic video!!! Honestly all of your muppet videos have been just outstanding! The muppets have been my special interest for my whole life and to see someone do them justice with the same amount of heart and care means the world. 💕

My parents took me to the Bear & The big house live show!! Seeing those clips is so nostalgic and unreal :’) I mostly remember it from family photo albums so it’s so weird to actually see them moving around - feels like I’m there. 💓💓💓 thank you for this video

this was one of my favorite shows as a kid i watched it everyday 😭 bear always reminded me of my dad bc he’s a big guy but so gentle and a sweetheart and i just loved it sm

the best kids show of all time a wonderful explanation as well i love this show and hate being 23

i saw the live concert of bear in the big blue house right around my second birthday and honestly the entire program shaped my childhood

Just watching this after dancing to my bear in the big blue house get up and dance DVD! Xx a great video as always xx

Nice vid, thanks for making and sharing. I loved that show as a kid because I was unfortunaly a lot like Tutter, the calmer ways of it was very appreciated by me.

2006 and 2007 is when basically any cartoon from the 60s through the 90s an even early thousands all suddenly departed the air in mass.

Nice ring! I wonder who got you it😏 BUT SERIOUSLY THIS VIDEO IS SO COOL! AND ELIANAS CAMEO AKCKKSKFKS

FINALLY SOME LOVE FOR THIS SHOW‼️ i never shut up about bitbbh. i hope this video gets mad views, ur essays are very genuine and delightful :)

Loved this video and am looking forward to the rest of the series! :D I never actually watched any of Bear in the Big Blue house as a kid, but grew up seeing it around! This video was a great dive into what the series was about and makes me kinda want to go back and visit this older series if it ever becomes accessible :')

You missed that Bear’s voice actor and puppeteer was also the voice and puppeteer for Kako from “Oobi”.

I love your enthusiasm for puppets and puppetry!

I’ve been requesting Bear In The Big Blue House since I found out you could request for movies and shows to be added

I remember this show! And until you mentioned it, I don't think I realized the characters were puppets when I was a kid. Which is silly in hindsight, but I guess that's how immersed in the show I was. Also, goodness, I haven't heard of Between the Lions

I loved this show when I was little

Bear in the Big Blue House used to air on Treehouse in Canada, along with the following shows: 1. Franklin 2. Caillou 3. The Wiggles 4. Sesame Street 5. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic 6. The Land Before Time: The Series 7. programs from Nick Jr. (Dora, Blue's Clues, Paw Patrol, etc.) 8. programs from Hit Entertainment (Bob the Builder, Angelina Ballerina, Rubbadubbers, Thomas and Friends etc.)

Tutter lives in my dreams… i love Tutter 💕💕

Did anywhere outside of ireland have bear in the big blue house crisps? Goated things right there

Do you know that Treelo has Elmo’s voice?

I loved this show as well! My favourite was Treelo.

Bear In The Big Blue House is such a wonderful show. I hold that show very dear to my heart forever because of its calm soothing nature. I loved it. And it does make me so upset and so frustrated and mad that the show is not available on Disney Plus. I have been requesting that show to Disney since launch. Other shows from that era like Out Of The Box and The Book Of Pooh, have made it onto the service since launch, and later, Rolie Polie Olie which came out a few months ago. I do believe that it might be the music rights that keeps it off of there, but the reasons just remain unknown, and Disney is just not acknowledging the show anytime soon. Another thing is that with Out Of The Box, The Book Of Pooh, and Rolie Polie Olie on the service, I find it unfair that those shows are getting attention and not Bear. Nowadays, this wonderful show is constantly ignored, even by the company that owns it, leaving it to be forgotten. It’s also the fact that every person I talk to, I barely hear people say, “Oh yeah, I know that show”. Instead, I hear, “I don’t know that show, doesn’t ring a bell, never heard of it”. Even my friends don’t know it, and know how much the show means to me, and the impact of it too. Disney has never said a word about the show ever since it went off the air, which was 2007. After Bear went off the air, it’s like the show completely disappeared from Disney’s mind, because they have never said a word about it ever since. Makes me sad how this awesome show is treated nowadays. Bear is just going to keep being ignored forever and just not come back to the glory days. The show will be added eventually, but the question is, “when?”. Idk what else to say. The show is a sweet heart to me.

Noel was told to use his own voice for Bear. But I recognize that voice from Magellan.

thanks for posting this i was a fan of the show but you forgot that some fans can buy the Dvd's off of Ebay or Amazon

Jeremiah Tortoise sounds like Mr. Train Conductor from Hanna Barbera's The Judy Show (are voiced by Jim Kroupa on The Judy Show cartoon series produced by Hanna Barbera)! They speak Canadian with an Canadian accents.

Both your Gonzo video and this have really made me feel seen, I really like your content and channel. Will be returning

Bear in the big blue house is a good show

I never really watched this show and when I did I felt like I was too old for it and definitely watched it "from a distance" but this video made me tear up.

I'd Love to see u do an episode on the wubbulous world of Dr Seuss i loved that show as a kid even though it also scared me a little lmao

absolutely love your videos! you deserve more subscribers ❤️ you should do a deep dive on the muppets christmas carol for the holiday season (the greatest holiday movie of ALL TIME)

Nickelodeon had Eureeka's Castle which is now streaming on Paramount+

I don't see bear as anti barney because I love barney too

I like to sings the goodbye song as a duet with myself. Cause I can.

Fun fact: my first word was "Bear" because of this show

I still watch it now even though I am 18

What is the matter with the Disney+ people? It’s called sharing, why can’t the Disney+ people put bear and the big blue house on there streaming services, and breakfast with bear and the lost episodes, they should also put the shows on Disney+ that I remember when I was a kid like welcome to Pooh corner, good morning Mickey, Dumbo circus and Mousercise.

Wait until you play Pico vs Bear

that show was unBEARbly good! get it? because it’s a pun…

I definitly need to dig up my bear in the big blue hose dvd

I miss shows like this. Kid shows are so loud and overstimulating nowadays, and the ones that aren’t are just really boring.

Cool

Was I the only one who found Luna the Moon "terrifying" as a kid?

Oh my god- I have finally found some culture- 😤💖

Now Treelo king of RU-vid :)

Real talk I credit this show for my obsession with the moon and if I ever have a daughter better believe her name will be Luna 😂

You might want to check Disney+ now

I sometimes still call it blig blue house

Why don’t you do a video on the puzzle place? That’s another show that cared about what the audience wanted.
