I've never seen Bluey, but I am aware that two different shows being high quality is not a paradox. What a weird hill to die on.

nobody is dying on hills here, this is a joke
For those out of the loop with Bluey, it's a fucking amazing kids show. I really can't compare it to anything that came before, the style, the music, topics that they cover (and even how they approach things). It's truly a once in a lifetime show kinda like the original LOTR trilogy. Lola Sebastian just recently did a video touching on it and comparing it to the MAGA copycat, "The Mundane Misery of MAGA's Bluey Copycat". A good 2 hour video to put on for entertainment and get the gist of the show.
Sleepytime makes me cry every time.
The symbolism surrounding concepts of growing up, facing the future (or current) death of one's mom / parent... the simple joys and quiet moments between parents and their kids and the orchestral arrangement and performance of Gustav Holst's masterpiece classic suite "The Planets" is a moment of devastatingly bittersweet television perfection captured in a 7-minute episode of a children's cartoon.
I'll be honest, almost every episode has me tearing up in one way or another.
I feel like Alan from Cinema Therapy lol.
The craziest thing about Bluey is it's all that in 7 minutes.
What the heck, MAGA needed to oppose Bluey? Maybe I haven’t watched enough but I don’t see it as particularly political. I guess it’s anti- “children should be seen and not heard” if that’s still a thing on the far right.
Anything that cares about people and doesn't raise you to be a selfish and uncaring asshole is "woke" to them and has to be fixed
I don't think oppose is the right word
I watched one episode of the copycat (tons of bluey though) and it's more that they thought they could take it, slap on a conservative veneer and call it a day. It felt very soulless compared to the original
slap on a conservative veneer … felt very soulless
Sounds like they nailed it.
Is that the one where Rob Schnider is the dad character? I think I saw a SaberSpark essay about it. It can't even be consistent in its own moral lessons and often contradicts itself.
Can't be consistent on its own messaging? Sounds like it's on brand for maga.
BUT ITS CHILLA TIME
I think of Bluey as a cartoon for parents that kids also like.
The only thing in a similar vein is Phineas&Ferb, even if it's a very different show. Everyone in my household, ages 5, 10, 11, 14, 39, and 43, were syched upon learning that there would be a new season.
An hour and fifty minutes? Any way to sum this up and tell us what it’s all about?
Bluey.
"POV: You're doing something"
(Looks inside)
A meme that is showing a third person view of someone else doing something
Yeah I'd use the "silence x, y is speaking" memd
You know, Bandit had the sense to eat the pizza instead of throwing it on the roof.
Edit: Also, people actually like Chili. Can't say the same for Skyler.
The fact that people don't like Skyler is intentional. At some point you're supposed to ask "why am I cheering for the drug dealer over this woman"? That disconnect is a huge part of why the story is so engaging. They make you root for the bad guy over the good guys, even when you shouldn't.
They're good dogs Mr. Whete.
Last time I checked bluey didn't have a fly in the lab episode
Is this because Breaking Bad fans review bombed A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms? I saw that one of the new episodes outranked Ozymandias causing a mud slinging competition.
Stranger Things: “I am the most streamed show in 2025!”
The Sign: “I’m about to end this man’s whole career.”
What site is this from? Bluey is a 9.3 on IMDB.
