Newish Dad Watches Bluey S3E Pass the Parcel, Explorers, Perfect, Phones For the First Time

[@amvanderveen5189]

Fun fact: In this version of Perfect, Bandit and Fido are discussing getting teeth pulled. In the original Aussie version, they were discussing getting a vasectomy. (Apparently, Chilli wasn't sure yet but Bandit was all in favour)

[@taycg09]

Fido: “I even got to keep them!” WHAT?!

[@amvanderveen5189]

@taycg09 LOL, yeah that wasn't in the original. Basically he just told Bandit that it was a quick and easy procedure if I remember correctly.

[@slackerlitgeek]

I have the DVD version instead of streaming (original episode versions for the WIN!) and the first time I heard that I was slack-jawed.

[@aussiejed1]

And in "Bedroom" (which airs later originally), they are cleaning out the spare room/old nursery and giving away their old baby stuff, so obviously she reached a decision.

[@bugdomrulez]

i love that pass the parcel is a sort of duel lesson. kids should be acclimated to not winning every time (i cant count the number of tantrums from kids id babysit who would LOSE it after losing in smash bros) and also its not a big deal if they get a little treat every once in a while, like let em have fun!

[@notoriouslybratty]

Agreed! We are working in this with our kids. It is hard for me as I love seeing their faces light up when they win but it is also good they know how to be a good sport. My partner on the other hand is an ‘Adam’ and enjoys giving them goals to work towards by crushing them in everything 😅

[@kvoltti]

in all things ballance. you don't need a prize every layer. Heck throw in gag prizes. and a slightly better one in the middle.

[@3MolesInATrenchCoat]

I just can't get over Pat's "we're raising a nation of Squibs(fruits/pansies/f***)" line. So very subtle to those who've heard the origin of that statement.

[@jazzycat8917]

I maintain the CORRECT way to play is to have one big prize in the middle, and then like a single small lolly or joke trinket in the layers. None of this bullshit where every layer is a whole prize, but none of the grumpy boomer shit Pat is on. Only one person wins the actual cool prize, but everyone gets some small joy.

[@3MolesInATrenchCoat]

@@jazzycat8917 He really did have grumpy boomer energy in this episode. Participation award BS was never as big a thing as people have made it out to be, but boy did people become toxic about it.

[@CalliopePony]

Perfect was censored by Disney. They inserted a completely different conversation during the boomerang flashback. The original version went as follows: Fido: It was all pretty quick, really. I was just in and out, and I even got to keep them. Bandit: Look, I'm keen to get it done, but Chilli, she wants to keep her options open. But I don't know. Do we want any more of these things running around? (Bluey crashes into him) The international version replaces it with: Fido: It was all pretty quick, really. I was just in and out, and I even got to keep them. Bandit: Yeah, I know I probably should get it done, but I love my dog teeth. I don't know. What if one day I just want to bite someone? In the original they were discussing getting a vasectomy/neutered, but that was considered inappropriate. (I'm not sure why Bandit wanting to bite someone is considered more appropriate, but censoring rarely makes sense.) Also, in the original broadcast Perfect aired before Bedroom. So it implies that they were cleaning out the nursery because Chilli gave up on having another baby and Bandit got a vasectomy.

[@EMLtheViewer]

A realistic allusion to anatomy that kids are unlikely to understand is FAR worse than explicitly suggesting a violent act against someone /s

14:55 "No ticket." Bandit is an Archeologist, and he's played several games similar to "Indiana Jones" movies. I get a feeling that as a child of the 80s, Bandit watched a lot of Indiana Jones movies.

[@slackerlitgeek]

10 points to RavenLash for noticing the Wiggles nod during "Phones"! I've seen this one several times and NEVER picked up on that.

[@AstraRune]

When I was a kid the pass the parcel we played was a combination of both sets of rules. There would be one big present in the middle and a small chocolate or sweet in each layer. That way you still got a little excited to unwrap the early layers.

[@caseyh8386]

Ours was always a random sweet every few layers. So you might get nothing, might get a sweet, might win.

[@Karoline_g]

I’m so used to these Bluey episodes being Real Time Therapy with Jay that it’s funny to see one that’s Adam doing that instead. 😂 BEHOLD THE POWER OF BLUEY.

[@caseyh8386]

33:58 and that my friends is why this generation of the elderly are the loneliest generation. Remember when a random oldie talks to you in the shop, you might be the only person they speak to that day. Maybe even that week. Give them 10 minutes of your time, could be you one day

[@morethannever]

"I just want to carry around a baby kangaroo in a bag" Was a sentence I never thought I'd hear. And one I couldn't agree more with.

[@rosenrot234]

13:30 Reminds me of my Grandpa. I made him a lil mug in art class for fathers day. He couldn't drink out of it because of what it was made of. ( teacher wanted it to be for looks not practicality ) But he kept that thing for the remainder of his life. It was his favorite pencil holder, even took it to work.

[@alyssabullock6421]

I love pass the parcel, it doesnt baby the children. It teaches them to accept losing

[@mariovsluigi9000]

I like that Lucky's Dad gets a happy ending instead of being tormented by the Heelers. Also, it seems he is in some sort of trade position.

[@LDk4816]

Some waited for Baby Race (and I did, as well) but Pass the Parcel is THE episode I wanted to see you guys react to.

[@annekeener4119]

Oh. You need to watch the uncensored conversation in Perfect.

[@taycg09]

“I even got to keep them!” 🫥

[@kirstengilroy302]

We did pass the parcel at my parties and it was Pat’s dad rules too, I live in the UK. That would be 80’ also

[@tamishar3631]

One of my favorite nods in this show is in Explorers. When they stop at the strawberry farm and the Pincher breed says they are from Argentina. Pinchers being a German breed.

[@wtimmins]

One of the big problems with 'don't let perfect be the enemy of the good' is that stress and dissatisfaction is NEEDED to make progress and get stuff done. You need the push. The incredibly hard thing is trying to find the window between push and self-sabotage.

[@SilverTwistVI]

Pass the parcel is one of my favorite episodes simply cause I agree with Pat and I'm so glad that the episode took the turn it did

[@kioku119]

Perfect was the one that got censored because Bandit was definitely talking to his park dad friend about the fact that he's deciding if he should get clipped or they should keep trying (he didn't use the term directly but it was clear). They changed it here to be about keeping his canine teeth which was just odd.

[@swingardium706]

I've always played Pass the Parcel with a blend of both styles: some layers have nothing, some have a tiny prize e.g. some sort of sweet or a sticker or a stencil, and there's a nicer prize in the middle. Sometimes one of the layers will have lots of sweets in it just to mix things up a little - it pays for the person who wrapped it to know when that one's coming up so it can go to a kid who deserves it! If you're worried about fairness, you can make little goodie bags that go to the kids who didn't win - it's not as good as the big prize, but it's better than nothing.

[@notoriouslybratty]

Lucky’s dad is the best of sports. He plays along with Bandit (they have to the best friends). I love pass the parcel as a reminder for parents it is a virtue to be able to lose gracefully.

[@destinycraft00]

We always played “pass the parcel” with little cheap gifts throughout and a big gift in the middle. We also used Saran Wrap instead of wrapping paper, it was like a big ball that you’d unwrap until the music stopped then you’d pass to the next person

[@pompe221]

Bandit having 2 games based on Indiana Jones is pretty fitting since he is an archaeologist. 26:56 Adam, honey, you good? 30:33 Huh, so Adam is secretly a vampire. The lore just gets more and more detailed with every episode!

[@Caittiecat]

[@JonathanMartinez-ei4up]

Learning how to lose with grace, and celebrate others when they win or achieve something is one of the most important lessons to teach kids. Kids Need to know how to use a loss as fuel. It’s as important as learning not to be an abysmal winner.

[@CalliopePony]

Pass the Parcel exists in America; I remember playing it at birthday parties when I was a kid. It was the 90s, and we played the old-school way with just one prize in the middle. I really love this episode. It does teach the skill of losing gracefully, but it also makes the point that it's better to have the patience and fortitude to hold out for something worthwhile, rather than getting instant gratification from something that's cheap and easy. Also, the final birthday party was Bluey's, so she's seven years old now.

Love Jay's love of baby kangaroos. It's amazing feeding them with a bottle to. I visited a wildlife rescue centre and they brought out a mob of joeys and passed us a bottle asking if we wanted to help! It was amazing!

[@QVESTMusic]

26:35 The statement of "so many things will kill you" is misleading. Yes, Australia has some of the deadliest animals in the world, but most are away from where 90% of the population live; the coast. And most animals will just leave you alone if you leave them alone, so you don't have to worry about the fauna dangers if you're just visiting for a short time. If anything, the only spiders you'll probably see are a daddy long legs, which is venomous, but it's fangs are so small it can't actually bite you; or a huntsman spider, which are incredibly tame and are not poisonous.

[@SarahRichardsGraba]

Tbh as a US American, I think the lack of gun control here is way more deadly than any animal Australia can offer 😅

[@QVESTMusic]

@SarahRichardsGraba yup, exactly. The only time ive seen guns in my life is out on a farm and at a gun range, never in public (excluding cops).

[@caylem00]

Yep. Tho wolf and funnel webs may be also the common ones, location depending. As long as you know area-specific general avoidance/ safe interaction/ identification methods, they're really not a major part of life in the major cities, assuming youre not an arachnaphobe. Going bush/ outback needs far more serious knowledge. I say that having had the crap scared out of me this morning by a young huntsman sprinting across the floor and hiding behind my mattress .. im considering fumigating my bedroom lol.

[@MonakalizasArt]

Actually the daddy long legs factoid Is false, they don't have deadly poison. And there's spiders sure, but if you're even on the outskirts of the cities there's still snakes to watch for. You also have redback spiders, and the beaches need to be watched too. There's jellyfish, stonefish, sharks (still rare) and riptides. Australia is a harsh country and that needs to be respected, but cities are still cities

[@laurashepherd2479]

OMG the way you guys say "pass the parcel" 🤣 The way we say it in Aus they both have a long "par" sound so they like rhyme together. We always played it at parties in the 90s when I was a kid and lots of kids parties now still do it! We'd do a small chocolate or lolly in each layer (usually a Freddo Frog) and then a bigger toy in the middle. When I did it at my daughter's party we put a Bluey sticker in each layer 😊

[@theogrebert4610]

Yes ! Another Bluey video. Hooray ! I knew Adam would be on Pat's side about Pass the parcel 😂 (and so am I obviously). Also Jay, I love your nails 🤩

[@mattmaclagan7752]

What I like about pass the parcel is the kids just needed to know ahead of time what the deal was

[@LadyNekoshema]

Pass the Parcel was the first episode I saw. My sister insisted I watched Bluey and I was all "A show for preschoolers?" One day, I was over at her place and I agreed to watch a single episode and this was the one she chose. I was actually just visiting her when your reaction dropped so we watched it together. So happy you both enjoyed the episode. Just watching Pats plan go horribly awry is still hilarious. But it's a great lesson for both the kids and parents. The parents are pissed that Pat isn't giving each kid a gift and the kids are sad only one person gets something, but by the end, the kids are fine. It's a low stakes way to teach kids you might not always win, but you can still have fun and be happy for someone else. The parents learned their kids can handle a little disappointment. I love how we grew up playing pass the parcel where there was one prize at the end, but somehow it would traumatize this generation. It only traumatized the kids because they were taught you get a prize every layer.

[@arubinojr5670]

Having taught Kindergarten different kids need different messages. The perfectionists need to learn good enough is great. The ones who want to phone it is need to learn to give it their best try every time. All need to know that your authentic best try is always good enough and that it will vary every day based on things like how well you slept and if you fought with a sibling before school. Praise the effort, not the result.
