It Was the 80s! Bluey 3x25-3x27 Reaction!

[@the_nikster1]

I also choose to believe that the story told in "Fairytale" is actually how Bandit and Chili first met. 🥰

[@BUGFlower413]

Ragdoll has to be my favorite Wendy episode. gotta love when she's an actual character instead of just a running gag also i do believe in Bandit's story as well despite Chili not remembering. maybe some details happened different and that's why their memories are different, but it's a story way too sweet to just ignore ^u^ also also i love so much the wholesomeness of Musical Statues, the entire final scene always makes me emotional ^u^

[@kateorgera5907]

I feel like "Fairytale" explains some of Bandit's reactions to Bluey and Bingo's sisterly bond (for example in "Bedroom") in that he can't really understand it. Even accounting for them being significantly older in the flashback, the Heeler brothers were clearly NOT touchy feely like Bingo and Bluey are. It also makes sense with Stripe and Bandit's competitiveness, as seen in "Squash". Bandit has improved over the years, but he still feels this need to best his little brother in a way that Bluey does not.

There's an episode of Regular Show that includes Mordecai jinxing Rigby. According to the rules in their universe, anytime Rigby talked, Mordecai punched him. The only way to break the jinx was someone needed to say his name 3 times.

[@VioletFeatherWind]

When I watched this episode for the first time, that's what reminded me of it. I never knew that people even did the jinx thing that way

[@brucewayne33497]

Oh yeah i remember that episode and i also remember Rigby trying to unjinx himself and it went horribly wrong

[@kateorgera5907]

Also I like to think it was Chilli in the flashback. My mom and dad grew up going to a lot of the same parks when they were kids, but didn't meet properly until their 20s, so we often think they must have crossed paths at some point before that.

[@paulhewes7333]

Born in 1975 so i spent my formative years in the 80s...the whole 80s episode was spot on...Especially the dad...

[@WeCanCos]

When I was a kid the consequences was an Indian burn. Let's just assume it's some form of kids rough housing.

[@rafaelmatos5851]

If we consider the age difference between Joe Brumm and his brothers, then Rad is two years older than Bandit and Bandit is three years older than Stripe. That means that, in the 80s flashback, Rad was 12 and Stripe was 7.

[@Catherinewelter-z6d]

This was the 80's the punishment for talking when jinxed was a punch in the arm, this is coming from someone who was a kid then.

[@ZukoHalliwell]

Yes, the Netflix show is a remake. The original She-Ra was a spinoff of He-Man.

[@fortinjack77]

What I find interesting, in Fairy tales, is that, 1- Paraphrasing Red in Osp: (Overly Sarcastic Productions ) Folktales and fairytales are the myths in a newer style, while you cannot write " New myths", you can write new fairytales, so in a way, true things are in the core, with a fantastic coat around it and 2- keeping it open-ended, to me, makes it, that much more memorable and engaging. :D

[@alamutjones4922]

That ice cream is a very specific real one. Pine-lime Splice 4 lyfe

[@cpcoultertweedles7216]

I think you might have misheard in the flashback episode. I think Rad called ‘skids’, not ‘skint’. I could be wrong though. I’m not familiar with that version of Jinx either, so it might be an 80s thing or a Queensland thing (I live in New South Wales). She-Ra is definitely an 80s show. It was a He-Man spin off targeting girls.

[@angelinacamacho8575]

when i first saw the intro to bluey i caught on to what they were doing since in preschool i played a similar game called freeze dance.

[@kirraleethomas5629]

Musical statues was my first ever bluey episode I ever watched and then I became a bluey fan and I love it .

[@Nkanyiso_K]

HE-MAN, SHE-RA, XENA Warrior Princess - all those were popular in the 90s

[@manic8213]

I'm the youngest of 6, it's just natural for your dad to call you everyone else's name first 😂

[@Zale__]

I think the 'forever weekend' in the 'Musical Statues' episode is an allusion to heaven. That's why Bandit is confused about answering: he doesn't know his own answer yet It's possibly a neat tidbit in there for parents like the showrunners like to do. Thanks for the reaction, btw

[@Tom-sq2nt]

i dont think that's the case here, i think it's an attitude to life that enjoy everyday of your life instead of just waiting for that weekend/retirement

[@3ghostsinatrenchcoat]

I feel like it gets overlooked a lot because it follows Fairytale but I LOVE Musical Statues, such a feel good ep.

[@Catherinewelter-z6d]

Yes that is a reboot the original was in the 80's

[@danisetsuko]

“Chook” is another name for chicken. Back when I lived in Australia, My mum’s friends sometimes would offer us fresh eggs if they kept chooks.

[@Coastal603]

In the first minute of musical statues, Bluey is being relatable 😂

[@morganghostbusters-egonfan]

Bingo is so adorable!

[@wolfdreamer8113]

BEFORE I WATCH THIS THIS IS THE EPISODE IVE BEEN DYING FOR HIM TO REVIEW FAIRYTALE. I HOPE HE LIKED IT.

[@NububuChan]

On some forums I saw fans say that breaking the rules of the jinx would earn you a punch lol

[@VioletFeatherWind]

I think that Fairytale kinda foreshadows The Quiet Game. This basically teaches that people shouldn't "keep their mouths shut" to "learn" something.

[@ming454]

Would be so much cooler if they recreated the opening in the Musical Statues

[@Catherinewelter-z6d]

Sheepdog, Ragdoll,and Dirt are Wendy's Redemption episodes my favorite is Dirt

[@nickthedreamer4434]

"Ragdoll" is just Bluey's version of the game "Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy"

[@chaoking3119]

You should also react to My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic! It has a similar feel to Bluey.

[@maricoze]

we find out later, but because of something that happened to Chilli my theory is that it caused her memory to fail her slightly so Fairytale was how they met. she just forgot :(

[@zoesumra9152]

I love Ragdoll. Bandit's trying to teach the girls about hard work through platitudes, and Wendy just comes along and demonstrates the value of hard (physical) work 😂

[@Giselle.829]

As if we needed another example of Bingo looking like Chilli ❤

[@squeebers]

14:37 You didn't realize til just now? Wow! It took me until season 2 but still. Don't feel too bad about it though. Lol

[@ming454]

I think they understand where money comes from, they were just making up excuses to keep the money

[@Tom-sq2nt]

they 5 and 7 bruh, not everyone learned money come from at the same age

[@ulisestorres1122]

This is where Bandit and Chili meets in the 80s

[@CaptainC319]

Onesie is soon

[@Tom-sq2nt]

The intro theme is a musical statue game aswell

[@ghostspider2056]

The rules for Jinx vary a lot, I heard you need to say the name 3 times. If you speak, you get bad luck.

[@shaneelliott6133]

If bandit was a kid 80s then bluey takes place 90s yes the she-ra an the princess of power is a remake of a 80s cartoon

[@moltendoesstuff]

just reached the end of the playlist today! can’t wait for you to finish the season off!

[@lukedavis3703]

Young Chris is like a female version of Homer

[@squeebers]

7:18 I love this episode!

[@tashaem1]

That's probably her sister.

[@cpcoultertweedles7216]

It’s the wrong fur markings for her sister

[@Ieatthingsyum]

I am so ready to get into the later episodes in these series, the emotions are about to go wild
