I strive to be as good a parent as Bandit and Chili are.
The episode that Bingo is having that wild space dream was legitimately visually impressive.
Episode where it's inferred (at least, I don't remember them directly stating it) that Chili's sister can't have children and it bothers her is the one that got me watery-eyed.
On the other hand, the hand puppet unicorn had me pissing myself laughing. "What's your favorite thing to eat?!" "Children..." "Oh.." "Just kidding!"
The staff on Bluey really care about the program, and it shows.
I have a t-shirt with Unichorse on it that says "And why should I care?"
It's a hit with parents and kids alike ❤️
And now I've gotta find one for my wife!
I'm very wary of seeing her sister now. First episode was that one and it got us bawling. Then she showed up at the wedding with a baby bump and we lost it again. She is two for two.
AHH I FORGOT HER SISTER SHOWED UP WITH A BUMP
Did you put together that Chili had a miscarriage? (The Show, Sleepytime)
Yeah. And that she lost her mom. Chili always gets me crying with her backstory.
