Can we take a step back and just appreciate how good Bluey is?

  1. Challenging but accessible

  2. Inclusive

  3. Emotional depth

  4. Grounded

  5. Not disgusting annoying

I really appreciate when kids shows are made with parents/guardians in mind (ie will watching the same episode 50 times make you want to off yourself or not)

Take another moment to realize how shit Paw Patrol is.

  1. Not challenging, has clear cut good/bad dynamic. Bluey doesn't have "bad guys"
  2. PP is fairly inclusive.
  3. Almost not emotional depth, everyone is always in a good mood.
  4. Started off fairly grounded, but then power scaling for no reason.
  5. Repetitive and boring.
  6. What the fuck is up with dogs being intelligent enough to do the PP things, but also being subservient to humans? The whole dynamic is so fucked, Bluey doesn't have humans at all.

I only compare them because the are both dog based kids shows. But PP sucks

I almost added "Not ADHD bait" as a positive for Bluey and calling out Paw Patrol specifically but wanted to be more positive lmao

Truely a turd of a show.

It's really amazing. The only (not really) downside is that certain episodes make me tear up.

You will also have to enslessly play the games they're playing.

I haven't actually been able to watch the special episode properly because my wife and daughters are too busy crying. I do love how stripe is kicked out of the bushes by Wendy

Such a great show. That Sleepytime episode always ruins me though. About how kids need their parents less and less as time goes on and they become more independent, fuuuuck.

It is really nice to have a children’s TV show that doesn’t scream the title and characters’ names at us over and over, mainly to make sure we remember to buy merchandise
