Where is this episode "space" I can't find it on Disney +!
Sorry it’s not on Disney plus yet buddy, right now it’s only on ABC website which requires a vpn to access the location based content, aka you gotta trick your browser to think your in Australia
@@Pugly it’s never coming it only airs in some places not all because of the strong topics like chillis miscarriage before she had bluey. That ep didn’t show
Can we talk about how Rusty’s dad literally came back with the milk…that absolute madlad
LOOOOLLLLL
LMAO
LOL 💀😂
I swear this part had me 1:00
@jaxx9 the hand hold?
Something else that gives extra weight to "Grandad" is that there's been no mention in the series of Chili's mother outside of references in "Onesies" and a family photo, which may imply that she's already passed away. If that's true, it would make Chili's concerns for her dad even stronger because he's her only surviving parent which makes her value her time with him that much more.
Ya know I’ve always considered that chilis mother isn’t here anymore but I’ve never considered how it might have impacted the emotions seen from chili, now when I watch that episode next it will hit even harder lol. Thanks for sharing that 💙
This 100%
My dad passed away years ago now and the fear of losing my mom grew immensely. Being able to spend time, no matter how mundane, is extremely special.
Reminds me of my grandpa and that makes me choke up
I wonder if Chili’s mom passed away when Chili was still a kid. That would be pretty relatable for me, because both my fatherly grandmother and motherly granfather died when my parents were still young, so I never got the chance to see them…
I agree; losing my mom from an early age made me feel the same about my dad, but the feelings are slightly subdued, because i know that my dad takes care of himself; and it's my stepmom im more worried about. it is different from chilli and her dad's relationship, but the feeling are the same.
Just remember to make good choices; not just for yourself, but for the people around you. Remember that, and know you're loved
Gotta be honest, didn’t think the show about funny dogs wouldn’t handle Child Abandonment issues and Infertility. Major props to the entire Ludo team.
I think Makensey may also have a light amount of autism I’m not sure though
I feel bad for Mackenzie. I know it was just a small moment in his past, but even though he wasn't actually abandoned, it clearly resonated with him. And I've had experiences like that.
Bruh, Mackenzie is a girl😩
Umm, who’s gonna tell EJ Rose 😅
@@EJ_Rose No he isn't.
@@pundertalefan4391 SO IS SHE GAY??????
Its like not knowing Bluey is a girl when I thought she was a boy
Baby race is the MOST emotional episode for moms I think. I literally cry every time I hear, “You’re doing great”. Sometimes we just need that validation/reminder.
Hah I was coming here to say that! As a mom sleepy time and baby race are my 1 and 2 most emot
My eldest child was delayed developmentally due to autism/adhd and I remember feeling like it was my fault (we didn’t know at the time). That’s because of me not being good enough she wasn’t doing things she should be. Didn’t help my best friend and I were pregnant at the same time and our kids were 2 months apart. Her son did everything on schedule and my daughter took her time. I saw Baby Race with her when she was 2 and I cried for an hour.
But now I let her come to things on her own terms and she excels. She just needed room to feel ready.
Sleepy time is just a bit more emotional to me vs baby race but it's close!
Her walking in the kitchen and what bingo says makes me wanna bawl
10000% I bawled like a baby the first time I watched that episode and still get misty eyed now, for moms who are super self critical that episode really just hit right at the center of the heart tbh. I think it should have been on the list but I also understand that it might not be emotional for everyone
"You don't need to keep coming back to this place" is such a healing statement, said with love and compassion. As someone dealing with trauma, it's so hard to let go of those feelings of hurt and fear, and being given permission to let it go and step forward from it is extremely powerful
That single phrase opened up a ton of thoughts and memories I was not ready for. I was abandoned a few days after being born. A few hours after being left at a bus station, someone found me and took me to an adoption center. At 10 months old, I was adopted by my current loving family and brought over to the US of A. Now I’m an American citizen and I don’t remember much of any of this.
This phrase not only opened up these deep wounds, but also let me prices the fact I was likely abandoned due to my biological parents probably couldn’t afford all of the things to care for me or might not have had enough to eat themselves and knew I wouldn’t live long with them, giving me up so I would have a chance to live longer than a few weeks.
This episode has helped me process this and find some closure to this traumatizing 1st year of my life and give me a new look at life.
Bluey is such an amazing show. As soon as the granddad said: "No, it was yesterday." and as Chili became a kid again, I already wanted to cry.
How good is Rusty? He plays Mum's and Dad's well with Indy and was incredibly encouraging to Jack he had just met that day. He is one of my favourite characters.
Agreed. He's always so well written, and has one of the best voice actors. I hope they explore his story even more as the show progresses.
I therefore conclude that Rusty is father material when he grows up.
I really love his character because boys with his interests are usually portrayed as bullies but Rusty is kind and caring
@@yourpeergerick bombastic side eye
@@luigiwiiUU *Criminal* offensive side eye
I also love that Rusty asks Jack what was wrong with his last school rather than what is wrong with Jack. Rusty is a great character.
That part almost made me cry. Rusty is such a pure soul.
As someone with both ADHD and autism, Jack feels more the former rather than the latter. It's the poor memory thing that really signals to me that it's ADHD. Autism doesn't really affect memory, but ADHD is known to impact executive functioning. Of course, it is possible Jack has both, but aside from appearing to have a special interest/hyperfixation on astronomy in the episode "Space" (space is a very common special interest/hyperfixation among neurodivergent kids, including myself), there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of evidence towards him having autism. Maybe in future episodes they might make it a bit more clear, but as of now it just looks like ADHD.
Hey I really appreicate you commenting this, its nice to hear a perspective on your take on Jack. I know that autism can affect memory in some way for certain individuals, however its possible we might be referring to two different types of memory conditions displayed. Do you feel like Jack doesn't demonstrate the memory condition seen in people with autism but instead its purely based off of his potential ADHD that makes him forget about certain things such as his hat? Just curious on your input since it seems we both have some knowledge on the topic so It would be interesting to discuss further. I know for me when thinking about his memory issues i was considering episodic memories (seen in people with autism) which relate to places and events so when I saw him have concerns about remembering the naming schemes with the army lingo for places rusty was pointing to I was thinking it was related to that
Also I would love more Jack episodes, he’s my favorite side character haha 🤎
I wasn’t that great in school.
Yes I can recited the lion king 1 and 2
But I couldn’t remember my school assignments or how to properly take notes in school for me anything could be used on a test.
Plus my mom would ask me why I couldn’t apply my trivial memory to my school work.
I agree- Jack is definitely ADHD, maybe autism too. I am trying to get an ADHD and I connect so so much to him! And younger me was so much like jack-then I hid it and overcompensated because I never found that place I truly belonged or family who really accepted it. Even though my mum has suspected it since I was about 5, just never got me diagnosed because I am “smart and well behaved”, then just made fun of me and criticised adhd traits like lacking volume control, yelling all the time, rambling, talking fast, forgetting everything, lack of time management. My dad is where I get it from and thinks it’s “normal” 😂😂 like dad come on you also can not sit still and do nothing, interrupt YOURSELF and go on tangents constantly and we have had 4 hour convos about the existence of god, geek mythology and space or whatever we both hyperfixation on because I also copy his to connect with him. Which is where my love of history comes from lol
The “there’s something wrong with me” hit So so hard!
But also Army hit so hard as an armed forces kid too- I was basically a mess the entire episode!
@@Meg_intheclouds I’ve heard that ADHD is different between boys and girls. Autism is hard to identify in girls then it is in boys. While it’s great that this show is showing what ADHD/autism from a child prospective they should also show how it’s portrayed between boys and girls.
I agree. As someone with adhd, I mostly see the common symptoms and experiences of adhd.
I dont think calypso ignored jacks sister. She took it in and sent him to play with someone that she thought might help focus him. I highly doubt it was an accident.
Hmm good observation, I don’t think I meant it literally by saying calypso ignored LuLu but I never really considered how it’s possible she took in what LuLu said deeply and used it to redirect Jack to an appropriate person. I really like that idea, thanks for sharing your insight on that
I think she did it on purpose to signal that what others say doesnt matter but thats just my opinion
W/ Onsies, and the establishing of Brandy's issues around having kids. I really do genuinely genuinely genuinely hope that the writers use her as a catalyst to teach kids about adoption (or even foster care). Adoption is rarely talked about in kids media- Or in any media really- (Even if it is its typically "youre not good enough" anyway) and it leads to so much bullying, and it'd be really nice to see such a spectacular childrens show touch on the subject, AND give adopted kids someone to relate too since they very often dont have other adopted kids around to be friends with (at least my school as a kid only had one adopted kid within the hundreds of us).
Even with the real world struggles of adoption, Bluey being a fictional childrens show can easily gloss over the difficulty of the process, or even have Brandy talk about it in the background w/ Chilli similar to Bandit and Fido's vasectomy (or dog teeth) conversation. Somethign the kids wont really get nor care about, but adults will.
The writers have just opened a door with such amazing opportunities and I genuinely really hope that they walk through it. I'd be so sad if they drop the plot thread all together, or even opt to have Brandy have her own bio child *instead* of adoption simply BECAUSE of how big the adoption opportunity is, and how needed the representation is in media.
It could be neat if gay couples were used as a terms for talking about adoption too!! Maybe even Brandy knowing a gay couple who gave her the idea! ;v;!
“This episode of Bluey is called Cousins.” The Heelers could go visit Brandy celebrating her baby and the kids probably wonder why it looks so different from her or ask where it came from.
I feel it'd be neat if Brandy adopted an older child too and the difficulties it can be finding that equilibrium. Older children typically have a harder time being adopted so it'd be an interesting perspective
To add to the older kid scenario, what if Bluey and Bingo help them acclimate to being adopted at last? I can just hear Bingo in my head talking to a boy trying to say they aren't family, saying "well, Mum says you're my cousin now, and that's good enough for me." Cue hug and a shot of the boy's face going from frustration to tearing up from an extremely honest 5 y.o. giving 0 fluffs they aren't biologically related.
I'm not adopted, so I don't know if it would be something those that were would like seeing, but I can't help feeling like it's at least the right direction.
While the topic of adoption is good, I find it invalidating. It is one of the top "do NOT say this" things to someone who lost or can't have a child - "just adopt!" No. Big NO. I have cried and grieved and hurt endlessly when I heard this coming from others, especially people who had kids. For Brandy, like for millions of other women, "just adopting" is just not an option. Financially, emotionally, or otherwise. Some women don't get their rainbow, and I think it's important to highlight that Brandy found comfort in connecting with her nieces even after years of bringing herself up to it. But let's face it, she most likely sobbed all the way back home to wherever she came from and then some more after the visit.
The tail wagging with Jack could also be 'stimming', which as someone who has autism and adhd, is important. I do everything from fidget with my fingers, twitch my feet, swing my legs. I have no idea why it helps,but it just makes it easier for me to calm down and release energy without overexerting myself.
I never really considers that, good thinking buddy
Don't all the dogs in the show wag their tail when they're happy or pleased? Interesting thought though
@@Leapingriver they all do. It's even a huge plot device in the episode about cleaning up messes. Bluey realizes the praise she gets makes her tail wag more
@@Leapingriver that's true, though many a time are actions mistaken for expressions of emotion. Some examples of this are bouncing, humming or a sound similar to laughing being taken for someone being happy, or pacing, cracking knuckles, and leg bouncing as expressions of nervousness. While most ND people have emotion specific stims, they usually aren't what nt people expect.
"The symptoms shown from Jack are common within people with BOTH conditions." - As someone who was originally diagnosed with ADHD and was later re-diagnosed with Autism, I can confirm this statement.
I second that ^
at this point it feels like if you have one you bound to have another even if juuust a little.
I just got diagnosed with that, and it feels great to have a show depicting it right!
The "Grandad" episode always makes me very emotional when Chilli says "he should take care of himself for me because I still need him" causes me to tear up every time because being as old as I am and still having my parents I can relate really well to that.
Season 2, one of the late episodes, really choked me up. The one where Bluey was a puppy, and Chili was trying to get Bluey to be the first to walk.
The last part hit me, where Bluey actually walks to Chili and Bingo's all "maybe she saw something she wanted".
..Fuck, right in the feels!
It's called Baby Race.
As someone with Autism, hearing Jack being praised by Rusty about him doing well made me cry because I understand the feeling of something needing to be interesting to me in order to learn it. That’s just how I am.
An episode (I don't think you mentioned) that I really hold in high regard is Flat Pack. How it takes something simple as playing with cardboard and Styrofoam and add two deep layers to it, growing up/passing away and evolution. It has one of the best endings in the entire series with Bluey playing as in her twilight years and peacefully passes over into the afterlife with Bandit saying "This is Heaven"
Oh biscuits! Yeah that was one I wanted to add but I forgot to mention it in my honorable mentions, it’s such a good episode. I really do like the symbolism of the passage of time in that episode
You can’t forget the subtle mother - daughter relationship
I was just trying to explain this episode to someone the other day and I can't even finish without crying. Technically, I can't talk about a lot of episodes without crying. I'm hyper emotional that way. As soon as I even saw you write "This is Heaven" - I immediately heard it in Bandit's voice and started crying! 😆
Flat pack is absolutely my favorite episode. I show it to my adult friends to let them say how good Bluey can be.
As someone with ADHD, the episode 'Army' and Jack himself surprised me. Mainly because you rarely see neurodivergent characters (especially ones with ADHD) in these shows. I found myself heavily relating to Jack, having been told the same "sit still" and "pay attention" stuff and thinking something was wrong with me and that I was the only one experiencing those things. This is why I love Bluey as a show as well as the creators for their fantastic execution of many different topics that any normal kids' show wouldn't dare speak of!
24:44 - 24:47
This episode is even better in home theater . That clip where Bingo and Floppy embraces has you feel like your in space.
And yes sleepy time did have me emotionally break down crying
What's the episode's name??
Sleepy time :)
@@Pugly I know they can’t release the track but I would love to have the Bluey version of Jupiter the bringer of jollity play in my car while commuting to work and back
This could explain why Mackenzie is seen digging holes in the sandbox multiple times.
Hmm I never considered that, thanks for sharing that amazing subtle detail buddy 💙
The hardest thing about the episode Army is that Jack thinks he can't do what he is told because he is expected to do impossible tasks for seemingly no reason.
I am speaking from the perspective of an autistic teen, and let me tell you, the opening scene where Jack gets told off for not sitting still makes me so upset. There is no reason he NEEDS to sit still. No reason in the slightest. It is just a standard that society decided is necessary for no reason, so when a neurodivergant person can't do it, they are told off. It breaks my heart to see Jack feel like he can't do what he is told because of some stupid standards the world has decided for people. He can do what he is told, we see it throughout the episode. What he is unable to do is be neurotypical.
Rant aside, that episode was great.
Yes!!! That bugs me so much. Also autistic and adhd, late diagnosed, and it was that type of bs that made me feel like a heel my whole life
I know what it’s like and it’s hard not to focus
Motion naturally draws the human eye which is generally why sitting still is preferred in most settings. So as not to distract. It isn’t some ableist rule by design purposely putting autistics in their place or whatever. It’s I think a primal instinct in case of danger. If there’s a lot of motion though, it’s easier to focus (generally) as there isn’t just one thing pulling attention. It’s a bed of nails.
So the solution, before you come for me, is probably more similar motion not forcing an autistic to sit still.
As a kid who grew up with undiagnosed ADHD in the 90s, later diagnosed in the early 00s, the episode with Jack really struck a chord for me, especially when he says there’s something wrong with him. I grew up believing that there was something wrong with me because I struggled with impulse control, motivation and social skills due to my ADHD. I carried this into adulthood and have been unlearning a lot of that kind of thinking in therapy for the past few years. When I heard Jack say he wasn’t very good at most things because there was something wrong with him, I felt like I was seeing and hearing myself at that age. Kids can perceive if adults view them as “different”, especially when the word “different” becomes interchangeable with “difficult”. I felt that my whole childhood, beating myself up for not being a better daughter, friend and student.
I’m now growing out of that thinking, but it’s taken a long time to do so.
Army hit me twice. I've been diagnosed with ADD and Autism (just recently). My mom is also part of the Air Force. As soon as Jack said "I don't know" I knew this episode was made for people like me. Even if I am 18 years old, this show is one of my favorites!
Edit for typo
In Army, when Jack was doing quite well in the Army game, it is an instance of something called hyperfixating. Many people with ADHD occasionally have hyperfixation. Hyperfixation is where someone with ADHD (or sometimes people with no disorders) will focus to an extreme extent on something and often times do the extreme opposite of any ADHD symptoms since. This is very apparent in his behavior when playing with rusty. :)
"That was a long time ago. No, it was yesterday" It always moves me to tears
I never realized just how emotional the Bluey series is. I've seen merch for it around but I don't have kids.
One of my coworkers told me that I should check it out because he's seen it with his nephews and as an adult has found it very well written while still being educational.
Can we just say how Calypso is the best teacher. She always knows how to bring the kids together whether games or problems.
The fact everyone is a dog in this show means you smile when you see their tails wagging cuz you know they're happy.
So here’s something that you may have missed; the song “Bringer of Joy” is actually played during the moment when bingo is in front of the sun/Chili, not when she’s in front of Jupiter/Bandit.
The name of the song is “Jupiter: Bringer of Joy” and was written by Gustav Holst for a suite known as “The Planets” which also features Mars, Venus, Mercury, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, each with their own orchestral songs and epithets. The most famous of which is “Bringer of Joy” due to the warmth and memorability of the piece.
The arrangement that appears in “Sleepytime” leans in particularly on the warmth, which is fitting, since in this instance it’s representing the sun, which is warm, and Chili, who is cuddling Bingo, physically warming her. It’s not an original composition made for Bluey, but it’s used to such great effect.
As if it didn’t make me cry independently of this show ;_;
This Is why I love this fandom, there is such a diverse group of people that all know different things, thanks for teaching me about this musical composer and how it can be read with a new light by knowing this. I love the way you put it by explaining it’s a song that is supposed to feel warm and that just makes the sun scene feel just a little bit sweeter 💙
Mackenzie is one of the most relatable to me (followed by Bingo and Jack), not only is he a major fan of the creek (which the creek that’s behind my house is my happy place
The two moments that get me emotionally are the very end of Sleepytime, when the sun rises, and the music swells, and the end of Barky Boats, when Bluey tells the fairies to look after her buddy Mia in "Big School". So sweet. 💙
Grandad hit me hard with the line "i still need him" because I'm 30 and still live with my mom and not many people understand how I still need her but in a different way being an adult. My mom is going through the same thing now because my grandpa is on dialysis and is showing the beginning signs of dementia.
I’mma need you to stop mixing AJR w/Bluey, cuz while it is absolutely perfect, the dehydration my body is currently going thru due to all these tears would say otherwise
Haha thank you very much for the glowing comment, it means a lot to hear someone is loving me mixing the two since I love doing it so much lol 💙
AJR shouldn't be mixed w Bluey cause they're a bad music group.
@elsa why do you think that? Don’t like their music, or do you not like the people?
The frustration and hurt of my brain not being able to pay attention is so outweighed by the feelings of pride and joy when I can actually pay attention that it makes a boring task pleasant, so I really feel Jack's sentiments towards sentry duty. When I remember things I do feel like telling the whole world about it, so personally I think Jack getting his own little explanation bit is just the perfect embodiment of that pride and excitement.
having lost my own mom a year and a half ago at the time of writing this, so much of the sweet moments with chilli make me so emotional even if its just the clips honestly. just hearing her say 'ill always be here, even if you cant see me' just gets to me, man. also not really just about chilli but the exchange between chilli and bella (cocos mom) where bella tells chilli 'youre doing great' and . augh that one also makes me emotional instantly. i love this show so much im so damn glad that it exists
I forgot a kids show could go this deep
Yes. I am 40 and love this show. I had a student tell me about it once and watched it and love it.
I’m so glad I found your channel. “Grandad” hits so much harder especially after my mom died two years ago. I beg my dad to take care of himself (he had lung cancer from smoking) yet he won’t stop smoking, and I’m so afraid of losing him before I have kids/get married. So I fully understand Chili’s fears and frustrations.
2 details from army I noticed:
1: Jack is able to do some tasks well, but only the ones which he is given a direct reason for (or it is implied he was given a reason for) and rusty seems happy to explain why he needs to do certain things, so that allows him to do these tasks, wanting or needing to know why a task needs done is a lesser talked about trait of autism.
2: Rusty asks if there was something *wrong* with his old school. the viewer would expect this language to be mirrored and hear "there's something *wrong* with me". the fact that he responds with "there's something *going on* with me" is really moving to me. he *knows* he's different and even if he struggles with his self esteem(same, buddy), he knows it's okay to be different and he just needs accommodations.
i have both adhd and autism and every time i watch jack's episodes i notice something new and i love it.
Handstand ( think that is the episode name) where Bingo and nana are trying to feel listened to. Being both young and old, you can feel undervalued.
I mentioned this in your previous video but I'll say it again here because why not?
I'm an Australian Dad and there was a Theatrical Play for Bluey that I was able to take my daughter to see. It was its own story but it heavily referenced scenes from Season 1 of Bluey throughout.
The main story was about Blue and Bingo getting into a fight and refusing to play together. Chilli is trying to rectify the situation and when the kids ask why would it be so made not to make up she brings up Brandi. We don't get the much, but we do know they had a fight over something and have been estranged ever since.
By the end of the play we get one final scene with Chilli on the phone calling Brandi. She awkwardly greets her and that's where the play ends.
It absolutely killed me when I saw this episode not long after and realized the fight was most likely about Brandi being uncomfortable around Chilli's children. Also, mad respect for bringing Brandi into the series after the play!
Oh wow I never knew that, I really appreciate you bringing that up because it’s another nice element in the series for the sisters relationship. I’ll have to write that down for future reference
Jack hit really hard for me as someone with ADHD, everything Jack portrays in this episode, from not being able to sit still to literally not knowing why he can't do as he's told, is exactly like my experience as a young kid before my diagnosis and medication. The end was emotional too, of course, but Jack more than Rusty stuck with me because I saw myself.
My own sister has struggles with fertility and I could tell how hard it was for her after I had my daughter. But she's the best aunt on earth and I couldn't do this without her. The second my husband and I found out our daughter was deaf my sister was the first person to enroll in an ASL class so she could communicate with her! So blessed!
Early Baby is the Bingo episode that chokes me up the most. Just something about cute kids gently coping with a dramatic event like that--every time, man.
Granddad made us take a break from the series fir a good week bc the ending kicked me so hard in the gut, completely unexpected dementia pull that reminded us of our granddad who passed last year
I was originally confused about the ending of Space. Maybe it was because my brain wasn’t thinking that hard but when I got it it slapped HARD.
Thanks for the amazing video!
As somebody who has ADHD and is somewhat on the spectrum, I really enjoyed them adding a neurodivergent character. I like how Jack has Rusty as somebody to rely on as a buddy who doesn’t care about their ‘problems’, looking back I realized I needed more people like that in my life. Thank you for making this video, and everybody watching it. Please drink water and eat the best you can.
Sleepytime is definitely my favorite and the most emotional episode for me, thus far. It's so absolutely beautiful. The composer is a genius
Rusty’s dad coming back just made me burst out crying. Wasn’t prepared
this show has meant a lot to me, I have ADHD and grew up not being able to sit straight, so that army episode hit me hard, and the one about chillys sister being Infertile genuinly made me cry bcus Im in a very similar situation where I cant...and the camping episode hit me the hardest, as every single one of my best friends has left me, and my newest best friend and potential partner tried to kill himself,
those are just a some of the episodes that hit me hard
Every episode that was talked about in this is so good, and you explained the reasons why each one was placed in their respective spots very nicely. The description of Army, along with Jack and Rusty as characters, dynamic, and storylines was great and highlighted real life experiences of the audiences watching. Living with neurological difficulties and or diffrences of any kind isn't easy, especially from a young age. Getting to see that be shown in a realistic, respectful and wonderful way in a show like Bluey resonated with me so much, and is one of the reasons why it's one of my favorite episodes. I could go on and on all day about why I agree with the points you made about each episode, but I'll say that out of all the episodes in the show those alone tackle certain topics, some more heavy than others beautifully and you captured them so well!!
Wow I gotta say, this comment appeals to my analytical side so much because I spent super long analyzing each episode for this video so you coming and telling me that I captured the essence of those episodes really well means so much to me. Thank you very much buddy, you just made my whole day 💙💙💙
@@Pugly Oh I'm so glad you liked this comment, and that it made your day!! Hearing that made my day! 💙💙💙
As a parent, I find Baby Race very impactful and important for the adults watching with the kids. There are so many manicured pictures of parenting out there these days that it's easy to wind up feeling you're doing something wrong because of them. A Baby Race with the whole rest of the world so to speak. Having somebody sit you down, especially another more experienced parent, and tell you you're doing well can take a huge weight off your shoulders.
the one about separation anxiety made me cry so hard. i struggle with it so bad and i hate that i feel so worried without people that i just can’t take it. i really love how the show portrayed it
If it were me I definitely would have placed baby race on this list and probably pretty high too. It makes me cry every single time. I’m not even a mother, but I can still understand a lot of what chilli is feeling in this episode. The feeling that you or something your doing isn’t progressing like everyone else. The fear of lagging behind or doing it differently. The dread of wondering if your just doing everything wrong. And the need for someone to tell you “your doing great.”
The episode and it’s message doesn’t have to be limited for mothers. I think it can apply to anyone that’s trying to strive for something. And this episode is absolutely amazing for showing them that it doesn’t matter how they’re progressing in that something, as long as they’re progressing at all.
The episodes "Grandad" and "Sleepytime" hit me hard the most since when I was a kid, I was introduced to death because of my grandfather's death, and I feared my mother and father would die, this would eventually lead up to crying so much that I would vomit, and its still stuck to me.
Let's all be honest. The most emotional episodes are always going to vary because people have different experiences.... So the fact that you COULD categorise them is impressive.
Concerning Onesies. I don't know if this was completely intentional or just a coincidence, but heelers, or cattle dogs, are a breed of dogs that have multiple reports of fertility issues. It's neat to see characteristics of certain breeds parallel real life. As someone who struggles with infertility and will likely never be able to have a child, this episode resonated with me the most.
I'd hope that they let Brandi adopt, and show a family made up of a mother and adopted kid being just as valid as a family with biological children. Maybe have some of the kids question why Brandi's kid doesn't look much like Brandi or something, and explain to the kids - in the show and those who are watching - that sometimes, not every member of a family looks very much alike, and sometimes they came from different places, and that's okay.
Hi! I can't tell if you put this in honorable mentions but for me the most emotional episodes are "Flat Pack" and "Copycat". Both tackled the most unwanted yet inevitable event in everyone's lives; Death. In "Copycat" it is directly shown. Never in my life I have heard in a show for pre-schoolers the line "Sorry, we did all we can but he 'died'". This somehow traumatizing. When I was a child I couldn't process that my grandmother died. It took me years till I let the pain of loss get to me so that I could move on. No, everyday I imagined that she was there inside her room where I wasn't allowed to go in. I do not let the memories I had with to sink in so that I wouldn't feel the pain. But I had to. I know there will be one day that I will enter that room finding that she was not there and it did eventually after 2 years. I wept as remember the day she died. I was there when she finally gave up her life. But after I cried my mind finally cleared up. I accepted that she is gone and the situation is out of my hand. The same thing happened to Bluey. But unlike me, she recreated the event the next day. After she saw everything again, she accepted it. She even quoted that it is out of her hands.
Next is Flat Pack. The episode showed us a parent and child moments being analogized to the theory of evolution by Charles Darwin. Each specie represent an age group from baby (tadpole) to an adult (alien). I am not parent but watching your child ready to live his or her own life which means to leave his or her parents is so sad. You're happy that your child has grown into a wonderful adult but it hurts so much to see that you are not by his or her side anymore. The question asked by Bluey at the end "What should I do now?" The music starts and Bluey saw her parents at the swing. Bluey climbs up her house and reaches her parents hand. This made me cry. This the embodiment of a happy death after seeing your child grow. Where she watches over her from heaven (I am not going to bring up religion so bear with me when I say...) with your heavenly (parents?). This episode actually became a turning point fir me for my opinion that I don't want to have a family. That it is not my happiness. I thought money is the only source of happiness. But when I saw how contented Bluey was as she ascends to heaven (her house) with her parents, I concluded that being a parent is the most happiest thing a person will ever experience in his or her life.
So those two are the episodes that moved me. Thanks for reading! I love your videos, really.
I really loved reading your write up on these episodes, each episode is really great in their own rights and if I forgot to put it in the honorable mentions then that was a mistake because they are both really emotional for me as well. I just gotta say that your write up alone got me emotional especially during the part that you explained your realization on happiness, that almost made me cry to be honest it was so sweet and heartwarming. I also wanna say that I’m really happy you like my videos it means a lot 💙
jack is such a sweetheart and i relate to him on an emotional and physical level and ludo studio displayed adhd-autism in such a wonderful way
maybe if gen z grew up with this we wouldnt be so fucking traumatized and weird
Fun fact: the main plot of Bumpy and the wise old wolfhound is based off a buddhist story about a lady who refuses to accept her child is dead and keeps looking for a cure.
It is the story of Kisagothami
Jack resonates a LOT with me, who has both ADHD and Autism, I love that Bluey is one of the few shows overall that portray neurodivergence well. I’m so happy, y’know?
The planet episode makes me cry every time. I’m a mom and I love my son so much, and to think he could see me as his sun makes me so happy. I know he loves me but I’m always anxious about doing the right thing and being a good mom. I love him so much and something about him possibly loving me and seeing me as his sun makes me so happy and ugly cry. I can’t even explain it. It’s like feeling love in it’s truest form. Pure and total. Idk but man that’s a good show.
My all time favorite episode is definitely Rain. It was the first episode I ever watched, so it has a special spot for that reason, but I also really relate to it and it brings me so much joy. Watching Chilli go from being mad about the mess, to eventually joining in to help Bluey just really resonates with me. Im autistic, and connecting with others can be really difficult for me; including with my own family. The best memories are of my parents no longer questioning what I was trying to do, and instead connecting with me and helping/encouraging me. It’s such a validating experience, and Rain just helps me relive those kinds of moments :,)
That’s really beautiful, I loved reading your similar experience to the episode rain and how it was able to resonate with you 💙
Great video. If I may share a story. I never realized I had separation anxiety as a child until seeing the episode with Mackenzie. I realized I behaved like him at that age. I brought it up with my mother and she reminded me of an instance that happened and that she was told by my aunt who's a psychiatrist that I had these same symptoms. I had completely forgotten and it all came back. This episode helped me process and heal in a way I never knew I needed.
In a quick side note. My mother is very ill and I'm worried I may lose her very soon. Every time Sleepytime is referenced I get choked up, and now all I have to do is hear the score I start the waterworks. Bluey is nothing short of amazing. I hope your video continues to help others discover and fall in love with the show. It helps people. Thank you.
Oh I literally cried at that Brandy scene. "Onesies" is literally the only episode ever of a children's show to have made me cry
Man, Granddad is easily top 3 most emotional episodes for me. That final clip without fail, every time, has me ugly crying. Like inconsolable. I love it so much though yk.
Lmao at Bingo slapping Bandit in her sleep! 🤣
You usuing AJR for this video makes it all much more emotional, I'm such a sensitive person, especially since it My Play.
Bluey has helped me on many levels, I even now use it as a grounding technique when I'm sad. It's a beautiful, wonderful show I wish I had as a kid, but glad I have it now, and can share it with my little brother and little cousins.
The more I watch this series for myself, the more I start to understand why adults love it so much.
The Chili scene with her dad always gets me cause I'm real close with my dad too
"Grandad" ending actually got me
Sleepytime is my favorite episode as well and it hits so hard for me. My mom and my parents have always been the most important people in my life and I just share and feel the emotions of the episode. I don’t know if you knew this granted it was not said in the video but the reoccurring song throughout the episode is titled “Jupiter” written and composed by Gustav Holst which is a remarkable piece of music but also goes back to the idea of Bingo seeing her Dad as Jupiter and the music comes to a big note at the end when Bingo is on Mercury showcasing the strong bond she has with her mom but with that her dad as well just differently and he is more in the background of her life rather than the foreground.
The episode "Grandad" is really touching for me. Because I've never really had a grandfather figure in my life. My grandad dies when I was only 3 years old, and even though I have met him before, I've never really had any interaction with him.
Adding Flatpack and Rug Island to the list. Those two episodes made me really emotional.
I was labeled with ADD when I was young. Although I've always Exceled at anything that had to do with art and history. Even creative writing I was interested in, just not math. Because of this, I was put in "special" classes. Which made me an embarrassment to my peers, and I was seen as someone who was dumb so nobody wanted to hang out with me. Retaining and keeping friends was hard as when I was 13y father passed away from cancer, this was never communicated to my friends at the time, though I grew to resent them for not knowing information about my personal life at the time. I am doing well for myself as eventually I got therapy, and grew up with good finances. I still struggle to want friends as it's harder now since everyone has kids and other responsibilities.
I really appreciate you sharing a little bit of your history with me, I also have went to special classes but instead for a speech impediment that I had when growing up. There is still times I experience it but I try my best to edit them out, but I did experience a similar isolation of my peers do to this so hearing your story really resonated with me on a personal level. I’m really happy you are doing everything in your power to better yourself and are doing well for the most part. Keep doing you, you’ll find friends, being an adult doesn’t make it easier but keep striving towards your goals and I’m confident you’ll be able to achieve them buddy 💙
Can we talk about Rusty's little tail wag when he hugs his dad that got me the most.
As someone who has ADHD and 2E, the fact jack can’t remember basic things like his hat but remembers everything about the army actually makes sense. He has fun playing army and he cares a lot about it but doesn’t care much about other things like remembering his hat. Me personally, if I don’t care about something, I won’t remember it. If I care about something, I remember every little detail.
I’m not sure if this is true for others with ADHD, but it is for me.
10:13
Thank you so much for this section of the video. I struggle with adhd and I have horrible grades in math, my parents always ask me why I can never pay attention or do my homework for math but I also have good grades in art, or science. Like jack, I always say “I don’t know” because I just can’t seam to get math through my head. I love seeing good representation in shows like this, and I love how you explained this
Really enjoying your use of AJR in the intros and they way you explain these episodes. Keep up the good work!
Thank you buddy!! I really appreciate the love from another ajr fan and I’m happy to hear my explanations resonated with you :)
I can relate to Jack. I have ADHD myself and I’m 26 but I still live with my parents in fact my mom is my legal guardian. We both really love this show and we don’t care that it’s intended for preschoolers because it’s cute, funny, and we love the Australian accents.
That’s awesome you are able to enjoy the show with a loved one, the Australian accents are definitely a huge appeal for the show for me as an American haha. It’s An amazing show for all ages :)
@@Pugly It really is. The life lessons are great for kids and adults.
Absolutely unrelated, but I love how the show didn't need to give every female character eyelashes to show that they are female.
I love Jacks character as it represents how people with undiagnosed ADHD and/or Autism and how they subconsciously mask when it’s pointed out but also when you unmask near people that you trust. As someone who has diagnosed ADHD and possible Autism I love seeing Jack get comfortable around Rusty and unmasking because you really have to trust someone to be able to do that.
The sleepytime episode made me cry, and it put me in this framed feeling where when i was little, i had bad separation anxiety and now i struggle with abandonment issues. I would be so worried about my moms leaving me i would be strife with tears in my eyes. And thats how a preschool show made me cry!
Grandad hits very hard. I lost my grampa and it’s still hard on us all. He was basically the rock for all of us. He always made us smile and would play with us no matter if he was tired, or not. We still miss him very much and hope he’s still watching us from Heaven.
My parents didn't really hug or cuddle me very much as a kid and I didn't realize how weird that was until recently
But now I am seeing it so much on Bluey, and I'm wondering if that has something to do with my chronic loneliness
Same but now I'm not chronically lonely I'm just very very startled by physical affection. I hate when people hug me, especially my family. It's so uncomfortable, overwhelming and constricting. The only person I've come to grow comfortable with hugs and physical affection is my boyfriend. I don't know why everyone else's physical affection frightens me. My boyfriend is also the only person that I believe really knows me well and that I trust.
I think it's a combination of not feeling like I can't trust my family from a young age and being afraid of physical touch because it's so alien to me. Actually scratch the "I don't know why it scares me" part. Now that I think about it, I think I'm afraid of that kind of emotional closeness with my family.
Maybe youre afraid of the emotional closeness of hugging too? Or maybe not having that makes you feel extra lonely?
Maybe it was the music you put over the scenes, but as someone with neurological issues (who also didn’t know why they were acting like that as a kid) seeing Jacks day it kinda made me tear up. Is it because I can relate, or am I jealous that I wasn’t given the same support and encouragement as the other kids like me growing up. Regardless the representation is phenomenal and so well done
I’ve never even watched this show and yet here i am BAWLING MY EYES OUT on the first episode explanation because it reminds me so much of how I grew up.
Amazing video yet again! I wish there was a way to "blueyfye" any issue children deal with in life. They always find a way to be both so true to reality and so hopelifting at the same time... It's kind of ridiculous this show exists in the first place, it shouldn't be possible...
Jacks episode hit me hard since even though I don't have ADHD I have trichotillomania (obsessive hair pulling it more closely related to nail biting) and kids made fun of me because of it. One kid told me they didn't even notice my lack of eyebrows.
“It was yesterday” THAT LINE IS SO EMOTIONAL AHSHCISNSK
I relate so hard to Jack because I have a younger sibling just like Lulu. (I also have ADHD)
It’s f*cking horrible. They only ever point out your flaws-and you can’t even get mad at them for it.
I had to pause after the evaluation of Grandad, I started sobbing
2 years ago I lost my grandad because he was an alcoholic and smoked, and it was heart wrenching. My grades dropped, I developed depression symptoms (however I was never diagnosed with depression or anything) and my anxiety increased ten-fold.
Those clips hit me so hard man
Im so sorry for your loss:(
I love your take on Space! I was a bit surprised you didn't say a bit more about how Calypso helps, beyond gently reminding him to be in the present. When a patient is stuck on a traumatic moment, a common therapeutic tactic is to encourage them to remember how the rest of the event played out after that moment, ideally to a point where things got better. She literally reminds him that his mother came back, and was just out of sight.
It also shows that she's likely talked to Mackenzie's parents about this event, since he's blocked it out, but she's very aware of what he's stuck on, and what happened after.
I go more in depth on my deep dive into space here: ruclips.net/video/AVMJ1oXueAg/видео.htmlsi=ubK2TaZeATrlE3Uu
Calypso’s methods I don’t go super in depth into but your perspective of it is really good, and I agree with what you said. I honestly haven’t considered the aspect of calypso talking with the parents, you got me thinking now haha. Thank you buddy
9:03 being a person with both autism and ADHD this episode hits really really hard Bluey is Amazing
You guys, I started crying from the explanation of sleepy time, imagine what happens when I watch the full thing 💀
Army hit me hard because when I was younger 5-8 ish I had bad ADHD and might ( have autism ) like couldn't sit still but now I've gotten SO MUCH better!
Sleepytime is unmatched across the board
