I think it deserves its own threat. A masterpiece of TV shows, someone on YouTube said that this wasn't a kids show but was a love letter to parents. Couldn't agree more.

My new favourite episode is sleepy time. The music and the storytelling are all remarkable. It was a beautiful episode.

The only thing my kids have learned from it is that it's funny to frustrate dad. I wish they had learned literally any other lesson that show has given.

Only kids cartoon that can make our whole family well up with tears.

funny as hell, too. Forget kids programming, just one of the best shows on TV, period.

I don't think I can pick a favorite episode, but currently it's probably the camping one, with Jean-Luc

Ya there is an episode where they are building a swing on the deck. That whole sequence right up until the very ending is like a tribute to being a parent and being married lol

Excellent show. Bandit is one of the most inspiring TV characters of all time, IMO. I always want to be more like Bandit with my kids.

I wish my kids were more into it - my wife and I love it but end up having to convince the kids to watch it instead of Peppa or Paw Patrol. I think Bike or Takeaway would be my favourite.

Bluey has dominated my life. We have a 1.5 year old (boy) and a 3.5 year old (girl) and they love their Bluey. My son has two pairs of Bluey PJs and when that theme song comes on....oh man does he ever get excited. My older one even asks me to read her Bluey books before bed.

And as an adult, it's a very easy watch.

My family loves Bluey. Favourite episode is Take Away which might be one of the best animated episodes of anything ever. A simple story that all parents can relate to with brilliant use of music.

It takes place in Brisbane and there are a lot of Easter Eggs for the locals. We do wonder how the Heelers can afford a house that would cost multiple millions. Bandit and Chilli must have family money or an illegal side hustle.

Are you all still on season 2? Season 3 is currently airing in Australia. One of the episodes was controversial and had a scene cut.

Was originally pitched as an adult cartoon satirising Peppa Pig and you can see the influence being grown up friendly with a lot of subtle jokes.

I watched a youtube video that threw out the theory that their money comes from illegal smuggling of archeological artifacts. Makes sense considering Chilli works in customs at the airport.

Yeah no season 3 here yet. It's supposed to start airing in Canada on July 13.

Only thing I heard about season 3 is there is a family meeting episode Disney pulled because of a farting scene.

apparently the voice actors for Chili and Bandit only met recently, as they worked from their home cities separately and had the audio spliced

Ah. Haven't watched on Disney in a while. Guess I should.
It's usually on Disney junior right after dinner, so we catch it then.

thanks for the poke to go back to Disney+

The second half of season 3 is out in Australia, but not here yet. I think it's now 47 episodes available if you are willing to sail the high seas for a children's show.
