The Bluey Controversy

Bluey isn't just a hit series on Disney Plus that won over the hearts of millions, it's also apparently the center of some cartoon controversy after a recent special episode, The Sign, generated some discourse on Twitter. On one side, people are mad the episode didn't have Bluey, Bingo, Chili and Bandit move out from their home as they think it might send a bad message to kids. On the other side, people are just mad that a wholesome kids show is getting praise and attention. Both of these seem pretty silly, so as someone who isn't super invested in Bluey, I wanna throw my two cents in!

Agreed. Not all Bluey fans are bad. Just because adults love something that's for kids doesn't mean that they're a weirdo. The show is made for all ages and most people who are non-Bluey fans just don't understand.

[@metis7534]

My dog watches bluey and I love the show when I step in and listen to it. For a kids show it tackles some mature subjects and the characters even the kids seem so fleshed out and there’s this depth to them. Like for example the episode where Bluey’s aunt visited and she couldn’t have children so seeing Bluey and Bingo would hurt her heart because it reminds her of what could have been. So Mom and the girls try to cheer her up it was so heartwarming and felt authentic

[@Sami-cv5je]

Of all the shows to receive toxicity for stupid reasons, Bluey was not on my Bingo card (no pun intended btw)… and it’s messed up. First off, Vox is right, y’all need fucking hobbies if you’re giving grief to people watching these shows WITH THEIR KIDS! Secondly, do you understand the nostalgia people have to rewatch kids shows from the 2000s and 2010s?! PAW Patrol and MLP:FiM took the world over, kids and adults love them, and I don’t see them losing steam for a while. It’s drives me batshit crazy to find people trying to slander some of the most harmless things, especially most kids shows that are (A) not meant to be taken all that seriously and/or (B) have genuine care for the demographic and the parents interested…

The main problem is that people forget the main theme of this special episode. It's not about having to deal with moving to a new place, it's about how family is more important than money.

[@Magulousmous]

“Everything will work out like it’s supposed to” What was meant to be was for this family to stay in this home. Signs were given to show that. Also remember Chili was in on it too believing it’d be good for the family but it’s so good both of them realized this was a mistake and backed out of it last second.

[@theGreenGoblin]

It’s a wholesome show for young children, that parents enjoy and find the characters compelling as the dynamics correlate to the audience. Who’s honestly beefing with Bluey? That just seems mean and petty. 🤷🏽‍♂️🤨

[@DeleteMyas]

The noisy 1%ers who have nothing better to do are the ones beefing with Bluey, all for attention and likes. The Roundtable just gave them the microphone to broadcast it, which is what these whineheads rely on.

@@AngelWingsYT The death one is dumb to me because I am old enough that I can say, I had things like Land Before Time and several other movies and shows that dealt with issues for kids well. Seriously Little Foot's my dying still chokes me up to this day, but it also was an introduction to death in a way that didn't sugarcoat it but wasn't absolutely brutal about it either.

[@AngelWingsYT]

Exactly. Most kids shows/movies were rough about it (littlefoot simba bambi) or glossed over it. Some (seasme street) did it right but modern lately doesnt do well looking at mature topics if at all Bluey did so well with it.

As a 15yr old who loves Bluey, imma just say I don’t understand why there is so much backlash on the show on people that are older watching it.

I walk around high school with a Bluey backpack for goodness sake and im not gettin picked on for it. If an adult wants to watch a kids show for just the general comfort or joy it brings them THEN LET THEM!! Like he said no one is comparing Bluey to a show like breaking bad, they’re both good on different mediums. If it makes you upset to see a person happy over a children’s show, literally seek therapy and get ur owl childhood figured out.

Twitter needs to be shut down! Back on topic, I didn't see the episode's ending as a cop out. If people watched closely, they could see that Bandit (Bluey's dad) wasn't entirely on board with moving away either. He just kept trying to convince himself that his new job in the city would make things better for him and the family. But when he saw how upset that both the children AND his wife were about it all, Bandit went with his gut and decided to stay in their current home. I saw something near similar to this on Loud House; specifically Relative Chaos (which served as a backdoor pilot for the Casagrandes spinoff.) Maria Santiago, mother of Bobby and Ronnie Anne, brought them up to Great Lakes City for a what seemed like a weekend family reunion with Maria's extended family. But by the end of the visit, she drops the bomb and suggests they stay there, thus moving in to the city. To make a long story short, Maria didn't make this definite unless BOTH her kids were fully on board. Bobby loved the idea but Ronnie Anne was beyond distressed. It took the family clearing out the hall closet and making it Ronnie Anne's new room for her to understand just how much her family cared and wanted her to stay. In the end, she ultimately agreed with moving in. So, it's always best to make sure EVERY member of the family is on board with moving and if they're not; find a way to gingerly help them understand it will be okay

One big theme of the episode you didn’t mention was the whole “we’ll see” thing through the farmer story and ultimately what happens to blueys family. It teaches kids how to deal with something wrong happening by showing them to look at the bigger picture. Constantly in the episode we see something bad happen, then something good, then something bad, ect. Ultimately it causes a chain reaction which allows the family to get their house back. It doesn’t teach kids that they’ll be able to prevent moving in their life, it teaches kids to not get discouraged when something bad happens because “we’ll see” what good things come out of it in the end. Wow that’s a perfect way to think about moving away isn’t it (:

It shows how adults in this day and age haven't grown up and are still being incredibly shallow in how they act it's childish.

[@spyroja123thedragongamer]

You know, out of all kids shows that were made to entertain children and don't get much love, Bluey is the one beautiful masterpiece that got so much love and appreciation from kids and adults because of the many amazing things it was able to do that other kids shows couldn't. It's quite upsetting that there are some people out there who are being toxic to adults who love the show. Like those people need to get a hobby or just try watching the show to know why adults love it too. I'm glad you were able to make this video to not only talk about the beautiful ending to "The Sign," but also to spit facts out about the many people who judge adults who love the show and tell them to knock it off!

I remember that Peppa Pig did a similar thing. In the episode “Suzy Moves Away”, Peppa and her best friend Suzy Sheep find out that Suzy’s mom was offered a new job, but in order to get it, she and Suzy have to move to the other side of the world, meaning Suzy would have to transfer to a new school and Peppa would never see her best friend again. By the ending, it was getting emotional when Peppa and Suzy bid heartfelt goodbyes to each other, even with Peppa giving her a drawing of the two of them together as well as her favorite toy crown. I could even hear in their voices that the two of them were about to cry. But then suddenly Suzy’s mom got a phone call informing her she didn’t get the job after all. Meaning that they don’t need to move after all and Peppa and Suzy don’t have to say goodbye forever. It seems like a pretty routine plot element at this point.

Except PP is low effort garbage and Bluey has effort put into it

I am a 22 year old who doesn’t pan on having children, and I love Bluey so much. It’s just a wonderful dose of serotonin compared to the “dark and complicated” stories I’m “supposed” to watch.

How and why would there be controversy for a preschool show?

No joke even paw patrol has had a couple of controversies like in season one Skye was the only girl pup and people got mad about the lack of girl power and now Skye is in every episode and second Chase got in a one as well for well being a cop and people need to realize Chase is the definition of what a cop should be doing caring for the community helping citizens when they need it and honestly not all cops are bad Edit and there’s even 3 banned episodes of paw patrol as well

[@HazbinCovenWitch]

I'm 23 and I like it. I mean, I'm not a _huge_ fan of it. But compared to other kids shows like Peppa Pig for example, I rather hear Bluey on TV then that. My sister watches it.

[@Caittiecat]

I’m a 33 year old female without kids, but who loves kids and has godkids, and I watch Bluey because it is so wholesome and fun. It sometimes teaches me how to parent when I eventually have kids of my own, but it reminds me of when I was a kid and me and my nephew would play around. I was older but I was more of a bingo than a Bluey. My nephew was the one who was Bluey. Also the heeler family reminds me of my own family, my dad is as silly as bandit and my mom was as kind as Chili is now. (My mom passed last year) but bluey’s family is kind of like mine, that’s one of the reasons why I like it, because I can relate to it.

[@skyenight-by8yh]

Honestly, despite me being a recent new fan of the show thanks to “The Sign” special, I actually (ashamedly) was wrapped into the whole “animation’s for kids” thing, but after giving this show a chance after a while I can say I’m glad that I did. Really in the Top 10 of my favorite shows/movies out there. Also, cmon, you’ve seen similar results with other shows like PAW Patrol and MLP. Why go after Bluey of all shows?

[@frozenolafnick5813]

The reason I’m solely mad about people dunking on Bluey is not just because they should let people live their lives and watch what they want. But rather, the media and Famous Actors, higher ups etc. are saying that animation should only be for kids. However, not only did animation start for all audiences, it hurts when someone you think would like a show, someone who would appreciate animation dunking on it as well. It’s a big slap to the face, and with the way things go with this type of stuff on Twitter and such, it’s no wonder why people in the industry are usually trying to play it safe at this point. And because of the complainers on Twitter, shows that would’ve seen the light of day, or gotten a good spin off, etc. have been cancelled, or worse. So yeah, to say I’m mad about this is an understatement.

[@hikimi18]

The special did made me and my best friend teary eyed, so yeah I did enjoyed it and I was happy that the heeler’s weren’t moving.

[@MarioSonicPhillyFan700]

This new generation sucks, people would argue over stupid and nonsensical things and now they're thinking cartoons are just for little kids how rediculous! I'm grown up and I watch Bluey and I think it's a great show for mental health.

I've done that three times. That said I understand why this message came out that way it is extremely rare for television characters to actually move especially when it's cartoons

[@meganmcdonald3333]

Bluey is made for BOTH Kids AND Adults! I watch episodes that actually highlighted on some that really got to me and that I experienced as a child. The Sign being the episode that brought me back to my memory of my father getting a promotion and us moving out to a new state and this was the episode where I honestly relate to Bluey. It brought back so many emotions in me and I recommended my cousins to have their young children watch Bluey especially to my older cousin who is practically an Older Sister to me because there are episodes that really hit home for all of us.

[@The_Broke_Gamer]

I LOVE that you cuss in your videos now. I get so hype every time, too. As a fan from Crystal Clear days, it's great to see that the channel grew up as time passed.

The bluey hate is nothing new in fact I would say it’s similar if not the same as what the mlp fandom faced 10 years ago.

[@NessaTheBat1]

Bluey is comfortable and healing for a lot of us. It's also nice they aim at happy endings. Bluey doesn't play by the rules of real life, she plays by her own rules. And wouldn't it be nice if people young and old learn from Bluey to create more happy endings in real life?

Yes I watch cartoons and yes, I am an animation student. Guess what inspired me to be an animator in the first place? That’s right, ANIMATION. Also- guess who are the people that work on bluey, that’s right. ADULTS. I really don’t get those people

For the record, the rumors about Bluey ending have been proven false multiple times, there’s going to be a fourth season and the people working on the show are just taking a well earned break and hiatus. Also leave it to some twitter brained idiot to make some unnecessary drama about the show.

[@MariMotherofGoblins]

If you haven't watched bluey, the entire show is so beautiful.

[@JamesJimmaHarding]

I think people are always going to compare modern cartoons (both mainstream and indie animation) to things like the DCAU and Gargoyles, as those things have a nostalgic connection AND get looked up to as the model for mature and well-written animation, and thus people have high expectations when it comes to animation.

[@JordiCalcos]

I think the whole discourse over the episode is dumb because not only did they have the part about happy ending in the episode we have had multiple moments in previous episodes where we saw glimpses of Bluey’s future and they showed them growing up with the people around them aka they were never gonna move….
