Something you pointed out a couple times is how the kids in Bluey are "unrealistic", and the ones in Chip Chilla are moreso because they're more... chaotic, I suppose. I think that is mainly a product of childrearing practices over the past few generations - the values which the producers of Chip Chilla want to promote are the very ones which lead to people acting selfishly and unempathetically, leading to kids who are equally unempathetic and selfish. Bluey is idyllic, but I would say it is still realistic: treat kids right, raise them to be caring and considerate, and they will be sweet and considerate. I assume this is unintentional in both shows, just a product of the creators' views of children, and their care (or lack thereof) towards making sure kids care about other people.
yeah i like i relate specifically to the way the kids in bluey act, i feel chip chilla instead shows general selfishness is “normal” and not a problem that should be corrected. obviously i dont think it’s on purpose but that shouldn’t be the message you’re sending to kids anyway☠️
@@saagabragi6938 Yeah, conservativism views selfishness and screwing others over as some kind of virtue, despite pretending to care about community and the society as a whole.
Another problem with todays society is pride, people can't just humble themselves and their kids see it and act that way too.. as well as involvement in social media at an early age leading children to be parented by possibly bad influences online.. and the fact that a lot of parents seem to shut their children out rather than allowing kids to be curious and allowing them to ask questions, adults forget that kids are innocent and that it's what other people and their parents say to them that makes them out to be the way they are, if you tell a kid to stop asking why then chances are they will go to outside sources (that are typically not good like porn) and learn through more.. inappropriate ways...
The fact that they made not just not-Bluey but all three of the male characters blue and both of the girl characters pink/purple really says a lot about their “apoliticism”.
@@QuillStroke It's not that, it's that they purposefully made it as a gender differentiation design since "pink = girl and blue = boy" in chip chilla. in bluey you never see blatant gendering of boy and girl, some people even confuse bluey for a boy or bingo for a boy and that's good design since you aren't visually told they're girls because they have eyelashes and skirts or they're boys because they wear jackets/shirts Says a lot for a channel that promised no politics in their content whatsoever
Not gonna lie, the first half of this video made me forget it was about Chip Chilla in the first place. Bluey has so much heart to it, and seeing a ripoff like this just kinda proves how powerful the OG is culturally. Good vid. :3
@gdat5838 Did you know that teenagers and young adults are also humans. Humans capable of understanding and reasoning. If being old naturally made you wiser or smarter, we'd be living in a goddamn utopia already. Our world is already ruled by rich old men anyway.
To quote the Bluey episode 'Chest,' "Work on their heads later, for now, just hearts." This quote truly encapsulates what makes Bluey special, to me personally. For context, that specific episode is about Bandit trying to teach the kids Chess, because he believes that helping them grow up to be smart, will help them in the long-run - whenever he is no longer able to be there, for them. Throughout the episode, the kids break the rules but show moments of sharing, empathy, and creativity -- all of which, Chili praises them for. The point of Bluey isn't to teach kids math, or language, or what-have-you; it is about teaching kids to consider their surroundings & others, under the scope of empathy and consideration; all the while, it encourages adults to also understand children's perspectives and personal nuisances and just why they may do something, that our more 'logical' adult brains would not consider. And as someone who grew up in an American, conservative community, conservatives consider empathy for those we don't immediately understand to be 'woke,' despite the cartoon being otherwise more 'apolitical,' compared to the slop BentKey has been pushing out.
Im so tired of the argument that children can't have any sense of complex thought, yes they are simple but i like this show because it can still allow the kids to have thoughts and emotions that do seem more complex
Wow these chinchillas parents are so neglectful they make Caillou’s parents look like the Mona Lisa I know caillou is an annoying show but seriously telling your child to go by themselves to buy some items in garage sells until they encounter a stranger and never notice what this stranger will do to them (Edit: 98 LIKES YO)
Bluey: Let's take time to appreciate life, relationships, and all sorts of children and families. D Wire: Follow this sketchy old man to his house to own the libs.
Are we sure there’s nothing shady about the daily wire ? The way that clip showed..there’s something really ominous and very creepy about it..mostly Ben Shapiro for instance..I don’t really trust that dude.
People running this company: Men wearing dresses is DANGEROUS!! It’s insanely harmful to children! /:| Also the people running this company: It’s totally okay and safe for children to go with elderly strangers to their house :D
Ngl the camping episode reminds me exactly of what happened a couple times in my childhood. My dad, brothers and I went out camping every summer on a camping where the majority of people were German. We're Dutch, and as a child I never even really realized they spoke a different language. Our languages are somewhat similar and through gestures and whatever it was super easy to build friendships and to keep each other busy despite the language barrier. My dad would often take them out as well to go do fun activities, so did their parents. Sadly the days ended due to the camping turning into more of a holiday resort, but I really wish I could relive one of those holidays
I love Bluey so much. I work with children and if we have some spare time, I tend to put a few Bluey episodes on to watch with them. So much love and care has been out into the show. It doesn’t treat kids as stupid or as a demographic that needs any form of quality. The art, the colours, music and animation is just gorgeous. I always recommend this show to both kids and adults alike. It’s just that good and I think it’s one of the best children’s show this century.
No they were just in the same episode. Matt talks about his only line which is one of the toys that not-bluey found. According to IMDB Buck Rabbit is voiced by John Bentley who has no other credits.
I'm 33 with no kids, and I love Bluey. I feel more prepared when I do have children because of this show. My parents were very reactive or just neglectful even if they didn't mean it... "Sleepy Time" hits me hard every time I watch it. My mom passed recently so rewatching "Sleepy Time" makes me think of her.
I feel sorry for her listening to Chip Chilla the misogynistic undertones are so blatant. I hope she finds a show portraying equality in family life - like for example - Bluey!
@@phoebevaughan5095 I'm sure his children are forced to watch that boring and terrible show. Just the backrounds alone remind me of a blue dog show (Bluey, of course) with a billion characters that are funnier than the whole Chip Chilla family.
also…the creator of bluey occasionally sneaks in references to people they like such as vargskelethor, even had mock ups of cut references done too. The same cannot be said about that bootleg
American parent here and I love Bluey. It is by far the best show for families. I watch it with my young son, and we both lear from it. It makes me sick that someone copied it to try to sell its BS. I refuse to watch Chip Chilla. I will never let my kid watch it either. Thank you for your sacrifice watching it so I didn't have to. 😅
Chip Chilla has nothing to learn and tries to sell some bs: Chip stops some bullies, learns about fairness, makes cupcakes, learns about teamwork and learns to put a mile in someone else's shoes. The "leftist furry" who reviewed the show is dumb.
I have never seen Bluey, just know alot of my fellow furries have been talking about it/drawing their sonas in the Bluey style. Might have to watch it after this.
I think this just goes to show that the existence of Bluey is why I'll never be able to make a show made for kindergarteners. I simply cannot outdo Bluey. In fact, the one kids show I'm working on at the moment is more aimed towards middle schoolers, and the main character is a superhero who has a crush on a certain gentleman thief, so neither of them exactly have the best moral high ground. Although, now that I think about it, I could create a show that involves [CENSORED TO NOT SPOIL THE CONCEPT].
I don't think the take away should be that you can't outdo it, but more how creative and outside the norm it is much like alot of kids cartoons that go the extra mile in telling a story for kids.
For context I am 30, and recently life has been a bit shit with quite a few shitty and stressful things all coming along at once, so I decided to give bluey a try cos I wanted something soft. I binged it for days, I have laughed and cried. It was the gentle low impact little thing I needed, but still kept me entertained.
I can understand the issue with Disney, since I’ve even talked to members of the LGBTQ+ community who aren’t conservative at all agree that at this point, Disney’s just pandering in the cheapest ways possible. The representation doesn’t feel natural, it feels like they’re trying to grab any attention they can muster. I think The Owl House was able to break past that kind of corporate pandering, and their inclusion of LGBTQ+ felt much more natural imo, but there’s not a lot of other Disney properties with ‘representation’ that manages the same thing. But to call everything in our worldly society that’s even a little bit controversial ‘political’ drives me crazy.
It helps that Daily Wire's content is behind a paywall. Why they think it's worth 100 USD a month is beyond me, though I guess no one else will host it.
Does anyone remember in 2015 when that one Chinese goat milk company made a bunch of characters that ripped off The Amazing World of Gumball, which eventually led to the creators of Gumball making an episode of the show that ends with the family of Chinese counterparts getting killed in an explosion? I know Bluey is a wholesome family show and all and doesn’t contain violence, but I wish the show could somehow incorporate those ugly, bratty chinchillas into an episode and give them a worthy punishment for being a pathetic ripoff. I’m not a fan of Bluey, but I am deeply fond of the show’s brilliant voice acting, beautiful 2D animation, smart writing, and the realistic characterizations and chemistries of its bright cast of characters. I know more adults than I do children that love the show, and the college I go to even started a Bluey club that has 20+ members. The same group of people that called Sesame Street propaganda for encouraging children to practice healthy habits during the pandemic and treat everyone with kindness should not be allowed to make content for children, let alone be in contact with them. People like Ben Shapeehole and Matt Walsh are dangerous, ironic, and arrogant people who have their heads lodged up their asses.
I love Bluey not only because of how much it teaches you, but how I can connect every character to someone I know in real life or situations, also learning new ways to deal with problems I haven’t encountered yet in a correct way. This show has my heart, and I’m a teenager trying to make its way into adulthood and it has been a struggle honestly. Being able to relate to Bluey also helped me develop a much more closer relationship with my younger sister, who relates to bingo, and it makes me tear up thinking about all I missed as a young kid and how I could’ve made things better if I had seen this earlier. But I honestly believe that it came the right time in my life, and now it has become a very important part of me
As a musician, Bluey is single-handedly one of the best shows to incorporate music and being the punch to deliver the message and morale, even in its subtlety. And in case you're curious, the music in the "Sleepytime" episode is a creative and expertly crafted arrangement of Gustav Holst's The Planets, most notoriously Jupiter: The Bringer of Jolity.
Hey man! Just wanna say it’s nice to hear you talk about Bluey in the beginning, it’s obvious how much you love it and care for it. Would love to see you do more videos just talking about things you enjoy!
@@sjwsmasher4398 Oh no how dare I tell someone to talk about things they like not hate 🤣 is this your hobby? Maybe try watching a good tv show, like Bluey! It may help you feel better 💖
I’ve only recently gotten into Bluey this past year, but I Love It! I wish I had a show like this when I was a Kid! It tackles real issues and actually addresses them in a more Natural way. Also I Love that you put Scenes from Lackadaisy in the beginning here! I’m a huge fan and it’s great too see the Pilot popping up more here and there, so Thank You for that! Your videos are always a treat to watch! Keep up the fantastic work Seal hun! And have a Wonderful day/night and stay safe out there! 💛😻💛😻💛😻💛
Bluey is one of those shows that is not just for kids. Seriously, theodd1sout made a whole thing about it. There's episodes about dark stuff that was SO dark it was removed from streaming, like an episode about Chile having a miscarriage??? Scary stuff for a show presenting as intended for kids.
The miscarriage was so heavily implied that children wouldn’t understand it. Even adults can watch and not realize that’s what it’s about, more of an easter egg for those who are fans and deeply analyze the show.
Bluey isn’t even that great of a show, all the children do is scream, and holler when they don’t get their way, muffin is a spoiled brat and you bluey fans enable her and call her iconic and amazing, but if Peppa Pig threw at least 1 tantrum like muffin you guys would blow your stack
not everyone that thinks bluey is great thinks that peppa pig is bad?@@iStanGwenTDI(also to claim bluey fans "enable" muffin is a joke, viewers can't "enable" animated characters?)
I used the episode camping to help my daughter get over missing a teacher of hers that moved to a different school. I find myself constantly quoting the episodes to help explain concepts about emotions to my daughter and since she's watched the episode she understands.
A few take-aways: 1. Never watched Bluey but I know it's huge with us Furries. 2. Hearing you describe episodes of Bluey, and the topics discussed, paired with the scenes from them made me tear up a few times. 3. Chip Chilla is just pathetic and made out of spite, and it shows. 4. For a 17 year old you definitely have an excellent command of thought and are wise beyond your years. Makes this old (40 years old) Furry hopeful for the future. Great content!
I wouldn't say out of spite... it's made because most content like what Chip Chilla is doing is made to rip off popular shows. Like, Chip Chilla is just a rip-off of Bluey, but conservative... another offering from The Daily Wire, Run Hide Fight, can quite literally just be described as Die Hard but with school shootings.
I mean, not every conservative family is like that, I understand that you might have some bad experiences with conservatives, but there are a lot of normal ones out there, not every one is a bad person
My only issue with the "representation" that Disney and other companies are putting into their media, is that more often than not it feels like they are just checking a box by adding a LGBT or other character, which makes them feel more like just a token or just pointless and one note. Like they are so focused on having to add "representation" instead of making compelling likeable characters. best way i can explain it for example is they are more interested in having a gay character instead of having an actual character that happens to be gay.
Hi 21 yr old here and I’ll say it’s not just nostalgia. Bluey is a series I continuously rewatch because of everything from the visuals and characters to the messaging. I was verbally abused as a child, couldn’t talk to my parents and ran away once I turned 18 when they essentially disowned me. My sibs recommended I watch this show and at first I was skeptical, like it couldn’t be as good as friendship is magic. But I was wrong. No it’s not as adventurous or larger than life but it is an amazing show and really helped to heal my inner child. Growing up with bad parents kinda warps your sense of how adults should be and what’s normal. But Bluey has helped show good examples of parent child relationships and family struggles. I don’t think anyone should be ashamed for watching this show and it really lives up to the hype.
About homeschooling, my experience goes like this. First of all my mom is a "medium" conservative. I was put into homeschooling after having bad (Terrible) experiences with public school. I wont give all of the info though. I still might not have all of the info on what my mother was thinking so take it with some pink, Himalayan salt.
Are you seriously only 17? I'm 31 and I have never made a video this good. It's well-written, well-structured, and the audio is crisp! What also stands out to me is how open you are about being lgbt and watching a show made for pre-school age children. Had I been open about any of those things at 17 (I was questioning at that age and I had a passion for animation regardless of demographic), I would have been torn apart by my peers. Kids today are so much braver and secure than I was... Keep up the positivity and you're already off to a better start than my generation. I'm just sorry you have to live with the pieces we couldn't pick up.
even a video essay about Bluey makes me tear up, i hold this show in a special place in my heart even as an adult. So many episodes have made me ugly cry and realize stuff i never got as a child or needed, EVERYONE could take at least 1 personal thing away from this show!
The criticism directed at children's entertainment is something that is often directed at furry entertainment on this site. I know that furry entertainment is something that is just opening a box or a skit based around a fart / gross joke. There's some videos on this site that are based on queries that people are searching for but really the videos are filled with the content creator's opinion and it's very light on research or learning. It disappoints anyone trying to learn something but it convinced that person to click the video. It seems pretty sneaky all the time and that's why I avoided furry entertainment. There are channels I find are exceptions to this. Clappedseal puts some actual learned information on scripted videos. I knew that before watching this video. I knew Clappedseal would tell me what's going on with the difference between the children's entertainment Bluey vs Chip Chilla. Being around furries I had gotten a very clear message that furries are really into the show because of Bluey's dad. What was really mindblowing is that Bluey was revealed to be actually awesome. I'm interested in checking it out and it's not by the reason of one of the characters but that the show is probably something I can enjoy for the writing. I do like content on this site whether it's someone winging their video on camera without script or it's someone who makes a crafted script in advance. I've gained extra appreciation for how well Clappedseal does scripted videos. It's not easier or more difficult but it's just different style that different content creators tend to do better at. I believe some furry entertainment can be awesome when it's from a clip of working without a script. It only takes an idea and a few notes in advance and is really possible. But Clappedseal makes a case for how awesome scripted videos can be in furry entertainment. Thank you and I hope you channel impresses others as much as it did for me.
ive never seen a video of yours, but when u said your 17- im 17, we're both 17 but you are doing so well with life and im just watching your life (or opinions that i agree with). damn thats crazy fr. ur lucky :)
I was so engrossed in listening about how great bluey is how amazing the writing and characters are that I almost forgot the main topic of the video until you finally brought it up in 16:13
Clappedseal, this analysis is bittersweet. As you are younger then myself. I lost my mother at 18. It fucked me up, a lot. Really cherish them, even if they aren't the best. You can't fix your relationship if they're gone. Obviously within reason, lol. Just don't be distant to loving parents. They won't be there forever and when they're gone, you can't hear their advice for your struggles
Can I just say: as an animator I deeply appreciate that when you said something about "The animation" you ACTUALLY talked about the animation. And then went on to talk about the color palettes, etc as a separate thing. I listen to a lot of video reviewers on RU-vid and they ALWAYS lump them together and it drives me batty. So congrats to you! I know it's a minor thing but I deeply appreciate it! The rest of your video is deeply thought out as well and I am very much enjoying it!
The first part, the one praising Bluey for its beauty, actually went into such depth that I COMPLETELY FORGOT the video I was watching. I got jumpscared by Chip Chilla
New subscriber here and first of all, thank you for sharing your thoughts on Bluey and the worst ripoff that we don’t talk about lol. Secondly your character is so cute and charming that it just makes me want to hug him! And three Bluey is also my favorite show and Flat Packs was the one that made me think and go: “Huh, well look at that! This show is more than a boring bland kids show! It’s its own breed!” Now I enjoy watching episodes of Bluey even if I’ve watched the same episodes more than once! It’s amazing how this show cannot only teach kids but also adults with easy to follow lessons that also has hidden meanings behind them!
i don't like anything or anybody that tries to push their political views in cartoons, whether it be democrat or republican. quit pushing your political views down people's throats, let them enjoy their cartoons for entertainment.
I forgot this was also about the bent key ripoff... It's hilarious how they say their version is apolitical when really its extremely politically biased and classiest too despite those same people saying social class doesn't exist due to neoliberalism giving some elusive "equal opportunity" because damn the privilege this ripoff has backing it is massive.
Yes, because stopping bullies, learning you can be multiple things, making cupcakes and learning about bravery is politically biased and classist. This "leftist furry" is a dummy.
TBH, this wouldn't be the first time rip-offs have been made, but from what has happened in the past, the production studios just got on with their work and thrived on the competition. However, if the producers of Bluey and the audience are so concerned that Chip Chilla maybe ripping them off, then they should take it through the civil court system as well as make copyright charges. That way justice can be done if there is indeed justice to be served - whilst if this just remains in the sphere of public opinion, then it will just escalate a situation that was unnecessary.
Dude you did a fantastic job with this video 👏 dam also I think the Buley has been a hit do to the way it can be relatable to both parents and kids along with the beautiful backgrounds and music while also having a good story/lesson is just wow this show is a freaking masterpiece and if I ever have kids I'm so showing them this show ❤️
As someone who lives in Brisbane, its so cool seeing parts of bluey and recognising those areas. Bluey is just generally a great show that kids and grownups alike can sit down and enjoy.
Joy, yet another reason to be unhappy about living in America (in all seriousness, if I ever have kids, I should show them Bluey, the mere description of that one episode is enough to make my eyes water).
blue covers such serious topics in fun ways, encourages many good things, has impeccable storylines and writing, represents things like ADHD and deafness, and more all in such a beautiful art style! then things like chip chilla exist
Yeah lol, then it will make you appreciate the quality time spent with family and show you how important and fulfilling this time is, it will make you want to create a family of your own and it will show you how. Bluey is on another level
Can we just not make everything political anymore? Seriously, kids don’t care about politics, they just want a fun show with fun characters and adventures, there doesn’t need to be any kind of politics in these shows, cus guess what? Politics suck.
Most shows I grew up watching as a child would be considered highly political nowadays, politics aren't the problem, bad messages are, and only one political side consistently has bad messaging.
Politics are everywhere. The thing is stopping the stigma of politics. Kids should be TAUGHT politics because they will literally define their future. Not go "i don't do politics" anytime something is brought up. I've seen people say "i don't talk about Ukraine, too political" or "idk the LGBTQ are too political" We are reaching a point where defending human rights is swept under the rug under the pretense of politics. This is not sustainable for any society.
Okay to be fair there is a lot of "indoctrination" going on in schools right now, all over my youtube shorts page are videos of children who are in 4th grade saying they are a "lesbian aunt" and even as someone who graduated in 2023 I have my own cousins and have seen the bullying that goes on when kids don't agree with one another on such political topics... For example: my cousin is christian, she isn't a bad kid, she is firm in her beliefs and that's okay she isn't hurting anyone but she also doesn't bend over backwards and let people walk on her beliefs and force her to think a certain way. She recently started showing up at home with bruises and rashes because apparently after explaining to a few lgbt students who were asking her questions about her being christian, she explained she just doesn't "believe in it" but doesn't hate them or mind them doing what they want, they then began violently punching, slapping, pushing her into lockers and doing things to her hair for aweeks and the school did NOTHING because it was an lgbt matter and they were scared that they would be considered homophobic (Or whatever other wider range term you want to put there). Which is clearly a sign of poor parenting on the girls behalf. Even then I don't think these 4th graders should have even been worried about labeling themselves I mean I've come to notice that a lot of "far leftists/lgbt" ADULTS are trying to push the idea of gender surgeries on these kids when they can't even consent to sex or even be held responsible for legal documents... they go to pediatricians for Christ's sake- Another issue with this is the fact that every time I have seen a video trying to educate these pre-k and elementary school kids on lgbt and sexual things it's always them making it bright, colorful, and simple because they know that kids are incapable of fully understanding something that's actually complex.. and people forget that brands don't target one gender when it comes to selling clothes, they just care about money.. to little boys and girls, it's no different than joining the girl scouts or boy scouts it's fun colorful and simple for them to understand. I mean if you have to use a banana and twizzler to explain to pre-k kids how a sexual surgery works then you know you have taken things too far. Also why are they trying to involve these kids anyway? wouldn't they want to target the current people running the world and voting? like these kids are the future yes but not for a LONG TIME and if you are looking for quick results then it just shows that overall it's them being insecure.
in all honesty your points do make sense. most lgbtq people just want to not be discriminated against for dating who they wanna date i do understand your points though!! i hear you. people shouldn’t be allowed to get away with bad acts because they’re in the lgbt community.
I can't remember which video it was, but someone talked about how conservatives have really poor media literacy, and so when they like something that's blatantly progresive it simply means it's somehow "apolitical", or somehow agrees with their narrowed world view. Which would also explain why their non-political cartoons are so dull and soulles, because the people who wrote it don't understand what makes for a good story or characters.
As a conservative, I love Undertale despite my disdain for its progressivism. The concepts it introduces are simply too good to overlook. However, i will die on the hill that Mad Dummy is a detransitioner, the dummy body is the only one he ever manages to fuse with
The "conservatives have poor media literacy" is a stupid cope by liberals who claim they're the only ones allowed to make art. It's a garbage take that they pass around to each other like a hive mind.
being born in Brisbane and grown up in Melbourne the show feels kinda familiar but different enough that there was some wonder to it, its charm comes from being relatable but distant enough in a way shown through a kid's mind
I should have watched bluey sooner tbh. My cousin just had a baby, and now he’s almost a year old, she’s started to put on bluey for him. She’s honestly scared to do so, because she knows the impact on things like iPads and shit, but she lets him watch cartoons from the 90’s, early 2000’s and maybe the early 2010’s in the future. Anyway-she put on bluey while I was over at her house helping her with some furniture, and after I was done, I sat on the couch and watched with her kid, and they played the camping episode, I actually fucking cried lmao- it was great, and it reminded me a lot about when I was younger and would meet people at the water park before having to leave and never seeing them ever again. Anyway love your videos man ❤️
The first time I saw Mr. Boreing, I instantly thought of him as that boring teacher/professor who only taught by speaking and punished his students for struggling because that's not a method they can learn with easily. Also, unironically, I forgot his first name; the thing that stuck to me was his last name. Take that as you will.
I don't even really like children but Bluey made me appreciate them and make me wish I grew up like Bluey and Bingo, childhood innocence and treating children like people is so taken for granted
On the note of representation, as an american who grew up with mostly American media I think it is fantastic that so many kids will be shown a different place with different sports and different animals and different weather and different culture. My only exposure to the green parts of not America was Animal planet, and while that is a great thing it's also nice to see how the people in other countries live as well.
Bluey is not just like comfort food, but like healthy comfort food. It's the kind of show that can make you feel good both while watching it and also teaches you things that can make your life better in the long run by giving you skills and understanding. That's what makes it special.
2:15 Knowing that the youtuber is minor of 16 years old, makes it really uncomfortable hearing about how they’re attracted to adult furry characters in media
Bluey is a wonderful show. I've cried a lot watching it. It's very nostalgic to childhood, it shows me things I miss, and things that I actively missed due to issues in my family that I wish I had growing up. It covers the ugly, the good, the wonderful and the heartbreaking. It shows real deep struggles between children and growing up, it shows how kids see the magic in the world and don't always understand things and it tries to explain complicated concepts in a way a child can understand. It shows healthy family, a healthy upbringing. It's one of the most beautiful shows and it's very dear to my heart despite my age.
You know it’s bad when your kids are talking over the show you made. Kids don’t give 2 bits who the voice actors are. But if the characters are engaging and entertaining than ya they will take interest in the making of the show.
I had no idea that the garage sale episode was that bad - I knew about the rabbit character in it, but no one talked about the implications of this episode. It kind of makes me wonder what other things people might have left out. Not because I want to accuse everyone else of being too easy on the show, but it just goes to show how easy it is to overlook things like this. Especially when everyone talks about how "boring" and "uninteresting" the show is. When the show doesn't have the kind of content that is interesting enough to give your full attention to it, it's wild the kinds of things that can slip past you. Also, from the synopsis of the episode about journalism, it feels like a child-level criticism of cancel culture. Where the things that people get mad about with conservatives is "tattling" and the rest is real news. Maybe it's different in the show (because I'm not giving the Daily Wire a dime to see their supposed "anti-woke" show for toddlers) but if you just give me the bullet points for the episode, that's what it sounds like they're doing.
Bluey is my favorite show, and nothing encapsulates that more than Camping. It is a gorgeous episode, the music is stellar, the writing and the story is superb, feeling so grandiose while also being a very simple narrative when you stop to think about it. It makes me cry every single time I watch it (which the only other episode I can say is as emotional is Baby Race) Add in a dash of humor and some Français, and it’s something I feel like I could watch every day for my entire life Also, another beautiful detail about Camping: Bluey and Jean-Luc are saying the same things, just in different languages! It shows, without need of explanation, that children from across the world are truly not different
