You are being so unreasonable to expect people to know what the fuck your post was about. The addition of "Heeler", still doesn't make anything any more obvious.

Yes, I've seen from the thread comments what you're banging on about but why the fuck write a post that so many people won't have a fucking clue what you're talking about in the first place?!

Context matters.

There there. Take a deeeeep breath and then we can talk about those big feelings you’re having.

Chill…Chilli Heeler.

You keep adding the surname as if that helps 😂. Saying ‘Chilli Heeler’ doesn’t make me any more likely to know who you’re talking about, and I have 3 kids under 12!
(I did of course google it and see that it’s a cartoon dog, but repeating ‘Chilli, Chilli Heeler’ didn’t help at all!)

Yes, exactly, such a healthy attitude, her man has her back though and they’re a good team, so it can work well like that

No thanks OP, Bandit is fucking annoying and Bluey is a headache. The other kid is sweet though.
Wouldn’t want her life at all, the fact that adults obsess over the show is bizarre to me. So many other much more funny or beautiful children’s shows to love.

Daniel tiger is a good show too. Before the bbc butchered it 😂 the songs were amazing, but none of the uk cast can sing and they’ve missed out the entire first season for some reason. It’s upsetting 😂

For having a different opinion about a cartoon character who is fairly divisive as we have seen from upteen posts on MN before? You asked if you were unreasonable, I said yes and you tell me to leave a public forum. What a ridiculous response 😂

ClassActress · 27/07/2026 19:56

Bluey is a nice cartoon for kids.
The animation is amazing.
A lot of the funny jokes have been ripped off from the Simpsons.
It’s too mawkish and preachy imo.
I can’t understand the appeal for adults.
Their lives seem extremely dull to me. So much so it actually used to get in on my head when my dc were a little bit younger and we watched a lot of it. The kids are so fucking whiny!

To save the rest of the inevitable “who?!?l” posts, OP has failed to mention that Chili is a cartoon dog

No, she hasn't. There's only one Chilli.

Go on then,.as there's so many....name 10 that are more funny or beautiful.

Chill…Chilli Heeler.

You can keep saying that, but it’s not helpful.

If you said “chilli heeler is a character in a kids cartoon” that gives something called by people who can write coherent sentences, context.

Noodge · 27/07/2026 20:01

I was thinking of Chili from TLC (shows age). She was beautiful to be fair but I know nothing else about her.

Why dull? surely just typical family life with young kids? They’re hardly going to be snorting coke & swinging from the chandeliers…not whilst B & B are still up, at least.

But then don't open threads where you don't understand the topic??

Bit daft.

How are you supposed to know without opening it 👀😁

Lostinbrum · 27/07/2026 20:01

Lol summer holidays has brought the bitches out in force on MN at the mo. On every thread 🤣

Op I knew instantly who you were talking about and I wish I had chilli's patience thats for sure. Sometimes when im about to lose my shit I stop and think what would chilli do in this situation. Helps calm my nerves.

That applies to both home and work btw

Go on then,.as there's so many....name 10 that are more funny or beautiful.

for example,

Funnybones
Bertha
Trapdoor
Frog and Toad (much better as a book though)
Brambly Hedge (ditto)
Grizzly Tales for Gruesome Kids
Tales of The riverbank (60s version)
and I loved Watch With Mother too.

Good stories, lovely animation, no annoying dad or older kid!
