AIBU to be in bits over an episode of Bluey?

I have teenage kids so this show wasn't on my radar until one of the kids favourite YouTubers did an episode on it. For anyone who doesn't know it's an Aussie pre-school cartoon. I just watched 'Babyrace' which is about competative parenting. I was pretty blubbery when one of the mums told Bluey's mum, she was doing great. But the last line 'May be she saw something she wanted...' totally finished me off. I think I need to watch them all now. It's on Disney Plus in the UK.

My granddaughter loves Bluey. Every time she sees me she shouts “I slipped on mah beans Rita” and dissolves into giggles. Love her so much ❤️

How do you watch Bluey in the UK for free? I’ve seen a few episodes on YouTube but do you have to pay if you want to watch them all?

DD has the baby race book, can't get through it without shedding a tear. It's the best.

Mine are well past Bluey, but I sent my daughter the link to the last Goodbye song from Bear in the Big Blue House when she was away. “Why did you do thaaaaaaat? Sob sob sob.”

Ahh, I was born in late 90's and that song brings me to tears!

My all time favourite is pass the parcel.

Take away and facey talk also works of genius.

WhatHappenedinLondon · 15/10/2023 20:10

I sobbed at Onesies (the one with Chilli’s sister).

It’s a beautiful cartoon. TV doesn’t get much better than Bluey.

If you cry at baby race be prepared to cry even more at sleepytime!

Both these episodes get me.

SparkyBlue · 15/10/2023 20:07

It's an absolutely amazing programme. My favourite one is the cinema one

WeightoftheWorld · 15/10/2023 20:07

I cry at Babyrace every time and I've seen it quite a few times!

My favourite episode is actually Takeaway though, I just find it so funny, it's exactly DH and my relationship hah.

gawditswindy · 15/10/2023 20:04

I just love it when the kids wander away and let me watch it in peace. Grin

Lovingitallnow · 15/10/2023 20:03

It will be rain for me. Balling at the tv and the kids not knowing what was wrong with me.

Crispyturtle · 15/10/2023 20:03

Bluey is amazing & the Sleepytime episode is a work of art! My kids laugh and I cry like a baby 😊

Am glad I'm not the only one. I remember sobbing over some of the things on Cbeebies when the kids were very young but assumed it was just post baby hormones!

Facetimey is hilarious 😂

Omg that is my all time favourite 😂

Babyboomtastic · 15/10/2023 20:00

The one with grandad 😭
Also onsies and Sleepytime 😭

VariationsonaTheme · 15/10/2023 19:59

I have a 15yo dd who loves Bluey!

SoYoung · 15/10/2023 19:59

The one where at the end of the episode Chilli is sat on the dock with her dad and they're talking about when she was small and she says "that was a long time ago" and her dad says "no, it was only yesterday" and the image morphs into them sitting on the dock side by side when she was a child 🥹.

It is wrapped up in how much I miss my dad though.

Danikm151 · 15/10/2023 19:57

Bluey is the best!

Notfeelinghunkydory · 15/10/2023 19:57

IWasFunBeforeMum · 15/10/2023 19:55

Yeah makes me well up every time. And one called the show.

YourNameGoesHere · 15/10/2023 19:55

Wait until you see the cricket one, sleepytime and the one with Chilli's sister in S3.

Honestly the programs made me cry just as much as it's made me laugh. Watch them all it's the best program for children I've ever seen.

ShipshapeShore · 15/10/2023 19:54

Reminds me of the Christmas me and my sister sat and sobbed at Old Jack's Boat on CBeebies. Everyone sat round laughing at us but it was so touching!!

ScruffGin · 15/10/2023 19:54

I love baby race, to be honest they're all fab, although my right hand has been "Shaun" for about 8 months now, every bloody night, which I've had enough of now😂

LividGas · 15/10/2023 19:53

Wait for the S3 one about Chilli’s sister.

Especially if you have BEEN that sister and will never believe your eventual miracle.
