Bluey: S1E1 - The Magic Xylophone: The very first episode of Bluey is called The Magic Xylophone. I have many questions about this episode, but the one main one keeps hitting me in the back of the head: is the Xylophone real? Does it actually have magical powers. Because if not, Bandit is the greatest actor of all time. Join in for this episode as I chat about inclusion and how we can all learn from Bingo. by Obsession: Bluey

Bluey: S1E11 - Bike: Bluey is struggling to ride on her bike without her training wheels. She gets frustrated after a few times and curls up in a ball by her dad proclaiming that the world is not fair. After a few seconds of frustration, she looks over the playground with her dad and sees other puppies struggling to do things they want. Bentley can’t reach the monkey bars, Muffin can’t put on her backpack, and Bingo can’t reach the water fountain and she might never be able to drink water again. And as Bluey and Bandit watch these kids overcome and make a way to get what they want, Bluey learns that true joy is brought about by perseverance. Absolute masterpiece and one that had me tearing up. by Obsession: Bluey

Bluey: S1E17 - Calypso: This episode is centered around Bluey’s teacher, Calypso. Her and her students are all having story time, and when story time ends, they all get up and start playing doing different activities in different parts of the classroom. Calypso walks around and just observes and makes a few comments here and there. She gently directs the students to help each other and the students learn about economics and capitalism. In all honesty they do learn about those things but they also learn the important lessons of leaning on each other and collaboration. by Obsession: Bluey

This episode shows us all how to truly have fun, how to play through a pulled muscle, and when its right to say sorry. It's another good one. by Obsession: Bluey

Bluey helps and puts the screens away for the rest of the weekend, and the family has adventures to last a lifetime and enough memories to put in the book to make all the other kids jealous of the weekend Bob Bilby spent with the Heelers. by Obsession: Bluey

We only see the characters acting with their hands for the majority of the episode, but Bandit is lying on the ground and Chilli, Bluey, and Bingo are all trying to get to the top of the Blue Mountains to find the softest warmest beds because it is getting cold outside. They journey on through heights, through caves, and through a cheeky fox trying to trick them up.

They quickly realize how rigged the game is and drive home very mad at the injustice of it all. While home, Chilli comes up with a home remedy game of the claw to try to put the girls in a better mood. Bingo loves it, but Bluey finds it a bit too easy. So dad makes the game much more difficult and the girls try to win a block that will give them bottomless ice cream sundays after dinner. Haha. Bottomless. Things go a bit awry after this, and no one really learns a lesson and the house is not cleaned. We’re just out here having fun. by Obsession: Bluey

The girls go with dad and leave mom behind but mom tells them to bring the bag with all the boring pool stuff they need. Dad is big picture, and just leaves without it, thinking about how much fun they’re going to have in the pool. And when the girls get to Uncle Stripes house with dad, everything starts to slowly go wrong until it’s too much for Bandit to handle. But right in the nick of time, mom is there to save the day with all the stuff they left behind.

The purpose of the game is to collect a hair from every adult dog and with enough potion grass the kids should be able to control whatever the adults are doing with two sticks dug into the ground.

And Bluey needs to learn the valuable lesson of teamwork and leadership. by Obsession: Bluey

She runs over to him, but he’s on the phone and loses patients with Bingo. A rare moment for Bandit. Then the episode gets weird. There appear to be real fairies messing up the things around the house because Bandit did something to upset the fairies. A lot of this episode you think it’s Bingo, but there is no way. There’s just too many things that get done that make it an impossibility for it to have been Bingo. And together the family learn that they need to dance around the letterbox in order to appease the fairies. So they do and Bandit validates the hurt that Bingo is going through and this episode is just an episode of love and beauty. by Obsession: Bluey

Bluey: S1E38 - Copycat: Bandit wakes up to find that Bluey is copying him in everything he does. So Bandit gets real funny and weird and tries to get Bluey to do some really funny and weird stuff. But as they are walking like speed walkers down the sidewalk, Bluey stops because she notices a budgie, or a bird, laying in the grass. It’s hurt. And Bandit grabs it and pops it in a shoebox to bring to the vet. Fully expecting the vet to heal them, the viewer is shocked when the doctor comes out and tells Bluey that the little budgie has died. The rest of the afternoon as Bluey goes home, she asks Bingo to help her play a game, and they essentially relive the day, with Bingo acting as the bird here, until they get to the part where the bird has died again. Chilli delivers the news, but Bingo comes popping out of the house and flies around all over the place. It helps to lighten the mood, but the emotional pull of this episode still stays true. by Obsession: Bluey

Bluey: S1E36 - Backpackers: Bluey, Bingo, Muffin and Socks are all hanging out. Not sure where Stripe and Trixie are, but Bandit and Chilli seem to be watching over the whole gang. The kids learn what backpacking is and want to play a game where they are the backpacks and mom and dad are the backpackers. So the game is on, and the parents walk around from the markets, to the hotels and eventually to the bathroom where Bandit really needed to go. The kids look like they are having a blast as they make it more and more difficult for Bandit and Chilli to get stuff and do exactly what they want. Eventually the parents get to their room and are able to take a breather before they go for a hike (with the kids now as their boots) and the kids learn a lesson about what it means to go backpacking and to prepare for any and every circumstance. by Obsession: Bluey

Bluey: S1E35 - Zoo: It’s time to play zoo. Chilli is the mom, Bingo is the kid, Bluey is the zookeeper, and Bandit is the gorilla. Bandit is less than enthusiastic to play so Bluey prods him with a pool noodle to try to get him to move a little bit for the guests. It doesn’t work too much so they move on. But Bingo is intrigued and climbs into his cage where they develop a relationship. After the zookeeper notices, she grabs the hose and hoses Bandit down to try to stop him, but Bandit grabs Bingo and hops the fence in a beautiful slow motion masterpiece. The two end up on the run before a banana lures Bandit out of hiding and into captivity. The zookeeper recognizes the bond that they share though and while Bingo is sad as she goes to bed, Bluey brings the gorilla back to Bingo so they can share the love they have for each other. A strangely beautiful episode where the kids learn about the beautiful possibilities of what could have happened had Harambe lived. by Obsession: Bluey

Bluey: S1E33 - Trampoline: Bluey, Bingo, and Bandit are all on the trampoline for a morning jumping sessions. They’re playing and having fun when Bandit lets them know he has to leave to go to work. He gets out of the trampoline and Bingo and Bluey persuade him to come back on to play another short game. This happens about three more times until Bandit really lets them know he has to go. The girls are super bummed and as Bandit gets ready to leave, Bluey comes up to him letting him know that she doesn’t want him to go to work. Bandit then tells her that her job is just as important as his, her job is to come up with fun games. And this unleashes a lot of creativity for Bluey as she goes back to the trampoline and creates a really fun game with her sister, so fun, in fact, that Chilli stops her gardening to join them. And Bluey learns the wonderful possibilities of creativity. by Obsession: Bluey
