[@ScoopaCoop]

Bluey smiling up at her parents being affectionate is one of those “oh this show is special” moments for me 🥹💚

[@eglol]

And not always being like "eWwWWWww" and hating affection all the time. I always wondered if other kids eww-ed at their parents kissing in real life, because I never had any problems with it. Also just... The moment is beautiful

[@RailwayRonny]

The dog collar thing was likely just a recording of a real dog shaking that happened to be wearing a collar. Best not to look too deep into it.

[@Jynxxx5]

That’s what I’m thinking

[@alexjewett7455]

Probably. But in universe, I say it's his car keys in... what I've decided to call a pouch.

Pretty sure that shaking sound is a very common stock sound effect too. Pretty sure ive heard it in tons of cartoons and movies before

[@richardperks7776]

I’m not sure but one thing that comes to mind with the “talking underwater” scene being censored is that it might scare young kids or that parents might think ( as in they just walked into the room at that moment) that Bluey is drowning.

Hawaiians say thongs, so it’s pet of a regional dialect here too. Probably why they didn’t censor.

[@notyouroppar4406]

On a other note: I love how young the girls sound in the earlier episodes. We basically hear them growing!

[@DarkMasterofCupcakes]

As someone who's grown up in America their whole life, I kind of wonder if the "thongs = flipflops" thing is kept in the American version because of how many words have different names depending on where exactly you live in the States, so it's kind of second nature to just be like "Oh, this must just be another word for this other thing", and when you have the added context of Bandit clearly wearing the thongs/flipflops, it makes the connection even easier to make.

[@Jacqueline_Oat]

Pretty sure it is, i watched it on disney plus and im pretry sure it was the same.

[@ambermillerrr]

[@LadyKattrina84]

From the UK here, and you are probably spot on with why the talking underwater scene was cut. the fear kids would try it out and accidents (or worse) may happen.

[@skootergirl22]

The bathroom scene was cut as well because the BBC worried that kids would copy the behaviour since swimming pools aren't common here

[@birdbrain106ally]

What bathroom scene?

[@Potatolover1775]

In one episode bluey splashes water on the ground of her bathroom then slides on the floor then turns nearly hitting the wall so it was cut

[@axelotl5827]

It could be that the reason why Bandit didn’t use anything from Stripe’s house is because he didn’t have a key. Bandit could have asked while Stripe was already gone to use the pool, thus never being left with the keys. That, or he didn’t think to go into Stripe’s house to grab the necessary items. He was probably too focused on the kids and the fact that he left their stuff at home to even consider it.

[@fangirl8891]

one of the things I like about this show is that with Bluey smiling at her parents being happy and showing affection, they are also showing her and Bingo what a healthy relationship looks like. This happens again in "Smoochy Kiss" when they not only tell but show that you have to take the good with the bad if you really love someone. (They said if you belong to someone but my point still stands) Even in the episode where Bandit and Chili are romancing each other and having a nice dinner, Chili shows the girls that kisses are special and deserve romance.

[@drawingdandy]

When Bandit says, “Tough crowd”, and grabs his neck, he’s pantomiming grabbing a tie, which is a nod to comedian Rodney Dangerfield, as that was his shtick. I recognized it immediately. :-)

Hey Marge! Jo here, Another Aussie in the USA (Boston)! I just found you, I’m so glad I did because you’ve given me the Bluey lessons I needed. I have to be honest and say I’m late to the Bluey party! I’ve just started watching it and I love it! It’s so Aussie and gives me a lovely taste of home. I just watched all your family tree videos and now feel a bit more up to speed. I was delighted to recognised Myf Warhurst as Auntie Trixie!! Oh the JJJ memories; the another nice musical bonus- I was a huge Custard fan!! It’s awesome to hear Dave being Dave, but as a dog! PS I have an Auntie Margie! I’m sure the Americans struggle with that one. I hope you have a ripper day!

[@ITZDARKXWOLF17XP]

I think that the jingle was perhaps a mistake where perhaps one of the people working on bluey had their cat or dog accidentally interrupt and they forgot to cut it out of the final product. Or they just used a stock recording of a dog shaking who knows?

[@ironpea4748]

I think it sounds like dog collar tag or keys, incredibly awesome work with the video

[@Qwer-teaBinch]

I think maybe they kept the whole "thong" thing here in America because Americans actually had a cultural crush on Australia about ten to twenty years ago. Theres actually a LOT of leftover memories and stuff, so a lot of kids and kids shows automatically understand that "thong"+shoe=flip flop. Kinda like a habit you get from an old fling that your kids pick up on out of context. At least thats how i perceived it.

[@TheBirthHistorian]

The thong thing is interesting. The BBC also cut the thong bit from the sleepover episode. However, in series 2 they didn’t cut it out during dance mode. The talking underwater must be a safety thing. They cut out the penguin game as well, but I think that’s back in now.

[@RealLilJennie]

I grew up on the East Coast (of the US) until about age 9. We called those things "flip-flops." At the time I didn't think they were called anything else. Except then (I don't remember where or when exactly, maybe on vacation) I met some other kids who called them "thongs." I was like, "You mean, flip-flops?" "Yeah, those." Years later, when I learned about underwear called a thong, I was very confused, because I was sure that thongs were footwear. And even then, it's pretty easy to tell the difference between "he was wearing a thong" (ummmmmm ok) and "he was wearing thongs" (oh, he must be at the beach/pool). So I've never been outside the US in my life except for a few visits to Canada, and yet as a kid I wouldn't have been confused by "thongs" at all.

Clearly in the bluey universe they all have pockets like how otters do. Bluey theory: they are secretly otters not dogs

[@RosieStillEditzx]

Video idea: maybe there could be a theory for Winton. In the episode helicopter. He says to bluey to drop him off at his, “DADS house” bluey asks were his dads house is and winton says, “he doesn’t live with my mom anymore” which could mean his parents could have had a breakup. 2nd video idea: the red dog that was seen with aunt trixie in the episode, “bob bilby” that could be bosco. The one that aunt frisky used to be friends with.

[@rosered5485]

The thong/flip-flops thing is funny. I guess Canadians call them thongs. I learned this when one of my Dad's friends complimented my thongs. I was only in middle school at the time and had only ever heard that word refer to a specific kind of underwear. I was SO confused and his friend apologized when the difference was explained to her. It was funny! Honestly, I'm guessing it was left uncensored since bandit was gesturing to his thongs/flipflops when he said it.

[@meadowchanyukikosangacha2643]

Theory : the collar acts like an ID tag/license. The reason we don’t here a jingle noise from Bluey is because she isn’t old enough for a license.

[@botha236]

I would probably give this episode a 3/4 long dogs. So where i live we call the heliconias lobster claws, it just so iteresting how different countrys use different words for different things ( sorry for useing diffrent so much XD ) and i think that Chilie used a bus or uber. In my country they didnt cut the thong part, but i think i know why they cut it in the uk its bc in the uk thongs mean under wear.

When i was a kid, we referred to those shoes as Slaps- referring to the sound they make when you walk.

[@sohanarahaman8070]

Honestly, this feels like a pretty interesting episode of Bluey is real kind of a fun, relaxing pool day episode .😊

[@LissaxKristine]

Another thing to keep in mind is that even if Bandit had a key, and could get into the house to get snacks, etc. Bingo and Bluey are both older than Muffin and Socks, so what are the chances there would be rashies that fit? In fact, I feel it's likely that Muffin and Socks have some of Bluey and Bingo's old, outgrown rashies.

[@lizzalkula376]

I don't know if it's a regional thing but for me (born and raised in the South - Geogia, Florida and NC) I always seperate the different footwear. Slippers = house shoes , the kind that the dog brings the dad after a hard day of work or the fuzzy kind you wear during the winter sandals = front over the foot and sometimes with a heel strap. flip-flops = the kind Aussies and other European nations call thongs (the ones with that thing between the toe - and literally make a 'flip - flop' sound hence the name. I loved these as a kid because I would walk around and say 'flip. flop. flip. flop.' as I walked. lol. Once I got older - teens-ish I hated them because of the thing between your toes). the collar sound thing I think was a mistake (like that one episode where Bandit's voice actor accidentally says: "dad enters the room') but like that they thought it was funny / we wouldn't notice / wouldn't care or we'd simply assume it was his hidden keys. I never really thought about Chili coming with the stuff but my thought is she either borrowed a neighbor's car or she uberred (that's a lot of stuff to take on the bus). also. Since when is 400+ dollars *CHEAP*?? lol and then have to pay for a hotel too??? Then again apparently Stripe as a pretty good job so... relative I guess.

[@c0ronariu5]

Anything under $1200 return is cheap for an international flight. Our air travel prices are insane in the Southern Hemisphere. $400 for even a one-way ticket is a bargain.
