Apparently it’s only designed as temporary setup.But if successful it could become permanent.

No doubt Disney want this.

  • Bingo 3000 - Dad has bought a brand new “Bingo 3000” robot, but it’s not working properly, so he calls technical support.
  • Letter - Nana reads an old story that Bandit wrote from when he was eight. The kids find this hilarious as Nana is reading out the words exactly as they are spelt.
  • Hungry - Dad is hungry so he pretends to eat Bingo.
  • Animals - Mum is playing the animal game on Bingo’s back. She pretends Bingo’s back is a big field, and various animals walk, jump and dart across it, making Bingo laugh.

Bluey fans in Australia are in an uproar after being forced to wait for the release of new episodes that have been made available internationally.

Seven were released in total for fans in America, but Australians have been left with just five to binge instead.

As a result, many have taken to social media to lash out at the show and question why fans in America are being given access to more episodes of an Aussie made show.

While American audiences and those in Australia received the last few episodes of season three simultaneously, this marks the first time Disney+ and its subscribers beat Aussies to the punch.

The minisodes that are streaming on Disney+ internationally are Muffin Unboxing, and 3 Little Pigs.

The BBC’s 2023/24 annual report highlighted the worldwide phenomenon that is Bluey. Per Mediaweek:

The annual report noted Bluey’s popularity soared globally as it became the second most streamed US show in any genre in 2023 according to Nielsen data. The award-winning children’s brand reached audiences in 140 territories amidst the launch of a game, immersive experiences, books and other merchandise, boosting sales for consumer products.

Bluey led the growth in sales for consumer goods with licensed products now available in over 50 countries.

Trophies picked up by Bluey include a BAFTA, an Emmy and the Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts (AACTA), for Best Children’s Program for the last five years.

A Bluey video game was launched on all major gaming platforms. There was an immersive recreation of Bluey’s Queensland home in LA and Chicago, which became the licensee’s fastest-selling experience ever. A Bluey’s Big Play stage show is touring the UK and Ireland until September 2024 and expanding into Europe as well as Abu Dhabi and Singapore. And the Bluey World immersive experience will open in Brisbane in November 2024.

The Bluey Book Reads series, featuring Kylie and Dannii Minogue, Tom Daley and Romesh Ranganathan, has been viewed over 17 million times on the Bluey YouTube channel since launch in February 2024.

A lot of hype over them with the Post Office website and the mint website being overwhelmed. Probably the biggest coin release since maybe the 2022 Red Poppy $2 coin. Of course being a coin collector, I have to go get some myself.

Dad visits the ‘tattoo shop’ where the kids give him some ink. Dad wants skulls & snakes etc, 'cos he has to look really tough. When it comes time to reveal, it’s not quite what dad envisaged.

Phoney

After a big day everyone wants to sit back and listen to some relaxing music except Unicorse, who keeps getting ‘Phoney’ to change the tune.

Blocks

Bluey and Bingo have built an enormous tower of blocks and ask if Nana can keep the tower up until they come back. Nana and Bob try to live in their smallish unit without knocking it over.

Government

Dad is using Bingo’s back as a typewriter to type a letter to the government demanding they do something about his errant children.

Drums

Bingo is in the music shop with Mum when she discovers an electronic drum kit and some headphones.

Browny Bear

Someone keeps tapping people on the shoulder and vanishing, it’s very annoying! Mum enlists Private Investigator, Browny Bear to investigate.

Whirlpool

The kids make a whirlpool in the paddling pool and then jump into the swirling current.

Still no sign of Muffin Unboxing, and 3 Little Pigs, for Australian audiences.

I think Ludo Studios needs to explain why these two minisodes have not been released to the ABC for broadcast.
