For those out of the loop with Bluey, it's a fucking amazing kids show. I really can't compare it to anything that came before, the style, the music, topics that they cover (and even how they approach things). It's truly a once in a lifetime show kinda like the original LOTR trilogy. Lola Sebastian just recently did a video touching on it and comparing it to the MAGA copycat, "The Mundane Misery of MAGA's Bluey Copycat". A good 2 hour video to put on for entertainment and get the gist of the show.

Sleepytime makes me cry every time. The symbolism surrounding concepts of growing up, facing the future (or current) death of one's mom / parent... the simple joys and quiet moments between parents and their kids and the orchestral arrangement and performance of Gustav Holst's masterpiece classic suite "The Planets" is a moment of devastatingly bittersweet television perfection captured in a 7-minute episode of a children's cartoon.

[-] pentastarm@piefed.ca 13 points 6 days ago

I'll be honest, almost every episode has me tearing up in one way or another.

I feel like Alan from Cinema Therapy lol.

Chili's sister can't have kids... I want to die...

Why is this show so good?

[-] wer2@lemmy.zip 6 points 6 days ago

One time as I was driving, a song started on the radio and I started crying but I didn't know why. Then I realized it was "The Planets", and I was thinking of Sleepytime.

[-] wabasso@lemmy.ca 17 points 6 days ago

What the heck, MAGA needed to oppose Bluey? Maybe I haven’t watched enough but I don’t see it as particularly political. I guess it’s anti- “children should be seen and not heard” if that’s still a thing on the far right.

Anything that cares about people and doesn't raise you to be a selfish and uncaring asshole is "woke" to them and has to be fixed

I don't think oppose is the right word

I watched one episode of the copycat (tons of bluey though) and it's more that they thought they could take it, slap on a conservative veneer and call it a day. It felt very soulless compared to the original

[-] sik0fewl@piefed.ca 8 points 6 days ago

slap on a conservative veneer … felt very soulless

Sounds like they nailed it.

The craziest thing about Bluey is it's all that in 7 minutes.

[-] odelik@lemmy.today 6 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

I don't have kids, but I had heard that people with kids and dogs had noticed that their dogs were watching Bluey too. So I started putting on episodes of Bleuey for my dogs when I'd have to go run errands. Yep, I've now watched quite a bit of Bluey, and it's a damn good show.

[-] neidu3@sh.itjust.works 10 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

I think of Bluey as a cartoon for parents that kids also like.

The only thing in a similar vein is Phineas&Ferb, even if it's a very different show. Everyone in my household, ages 5, 10, 11, 14, 39, and 43, were syched upon learning that there would be a new season.

I've only seen a couple episodes of Bluey but one of them they were all doing something outside and all of a sudden a football came out of nowhere and whacked the dad in the nuts. It was very funny. 10/10 show.

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

"Very funny"? Seriously? That sounds like literal Ow My Balls territory in terms of humor.

We are all doomed as a society.

[-] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 3 points 5 days ago

Yeah THAT'S why we're all doomed as a society. One little throwaway gag on a children's cartoon.

[-] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 9 points 5 days ago

Anything that both makes your kid stop crying and doesnt make you wanna gouge out your eardrums is an automatic 10/10

[-] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 2 points 4 days ago

I'm a grown-ass man and love Bluey. The episode Baby Race (available on YouTube) actually meant a lot for me when my toddler was being... Bluey from that episode.

"I slipped on my beans." > "Say my name."

Why do europeans put silly commas as decimal points ??

[-] Dicska@lemmy.world 8 points 5 days ago

Europeans, you say?

Yeah, I know, it's still less than 1/3 of the total, but it's used in several continents.

[-] MisterFrog@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

I just hurts my soul that it's inconsistent.

By population decimal point wins?

I don't really care which, but my heart craves standardisation*

(*where it makes sense. I don't think language based differences in how many digits between separators needs to be world-wide. Eg. In East Asia you separate in groups of 4 digits, not 3 because of language)

[-] Dicska@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

I'd be willing to give up my habit, but imagine the DECADES of constant confusion, mistakes and accidents because 8 years into the change you need to figure out whether the right number is 4.827 or 4,827 in the document you're looking at... And now you need to investigate the creation date.

[-] MisterFrog@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Eh, it's already fairly obvious using both systems side by side across the internet.

Though I suppose in actual work you're correct. I use 3 decimal places for metres on drawings a lot, because I like it to be easy to read the mm.

It being 1,000 m or 1.000 m is of course a huge difference haha

A boy can dream 🥹

[-] joan@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

Fine... europeans and south americans... /j

[-] NichEherVielleicht@feddit.org 6 points 6 days ago

Why do Americans put silly decimal points as commas??

[-] MisterFrog@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

I don't really care which, but if I'm not mistaken it's the majority of the world population in this case not just the US.

Thats really a thing?

[-] sirico@feddit.uk 9 points 6 days ago

Last time I checked bluey didn't have a fly in the lab episode

[-] odelik@lemmy.today 4 points 6 days ago

I hate bottle episodes. After watching "Fly" I came away still hating bottle episodes, even if they are done well.

Best bottle episode ever, imo, was done by Community. And still, fuck bottle episodes.

[-] peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 4 points 5 days ago

Well maybe if Walt wasnt such a god awful cunt of a character from start to finish. Dont get me wrong, great show, Cranston is a acting beast. I know he is great cause I hate Walt more than I love the dad from Malcolm in the middle.

[-] ameancow@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

The use of commas instead of periods to denote fractions is making me want to harm someone. What in the fuck are they teaching you in school nowadays.

[-] TheFriendlyDickhead@feddit.org 28 points 6 days ago

They are probably just from a country that uses commas instead of periods and they simply forgot that they had to switch those.

italy is 3,14 and 1.000,00

welcome to hell

[-] wabasso@lemmy.ca 6 points 6 days ago

I’m a convert. Comma is the larger symbol which should be used for the more significant delimiter. Comma for decimal, periods for thousands separator.

Continental Europeans are a bit weird with this

[-] Wolf@lemmy.today 6 points 6 days ago

I've never seen Bluey, but I am aware that two different shows being high quality is not a paradox. What a weird hill to die on.

[-] shneancy@lemmy.world 20 points 6 days ago

nobody is dying on hills here, this is a joke

[-] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 1 points 4 days ago

The comparison is a joke because one of these shows was hailed as one of the best shows in at least recent memory if not ever and the other is a kids cartoon and those aren't usually very high quality even though exceptions do exist. Bluey is an exception.

[-] David_Eight@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

They're good dogs Mr. Whete.
