Chili's sister was the best part, that episode was tough

Yes it was, especially if you have had trouble with infertility. I loved the callback in that episode how Brandy reaches out toward the kids like Bluey reached out for Chilli in Baby Race, and seeing something she really wanted.

They handle very adult issues in such amazing ways. The Mother's Day episode where the balloon pops... Chilli's face and Bandit immediately grabbing her hand...seems like a silent nod to them having a miscarriage.

Like others have said, they have expanded on the side characters so much (Rusty, Jack, Lucky and his family) it would have been hard to see all of them left behind and their stories not explored further. Plus, Lila and Bingo have to graduate together or else Daddy Drop Off has to be retconned.

Another Bluey jerkfest thread? I'm in. Best kids show maybe ever, and it borders on being one of the best adult shows as well. It's that high-quality.

Holy shite I never noticed that before, but I just watched it just now and I think you are 100% right. Wow.

That Onesies episode is just so brutal, but sweet at the same time.

And I've seen Rain mentioned. That is definitely one of my favorites for sure (I love the music). And Sleepytime is one of the GOATs. Cricket is great too.

Honestly, I'm not sure if I would be able to narrow down a top five episode list since there are so many that are just great.

I’ve seen the Mother’s Day episode a couple times since this post, and I’m not sure if that part is a nod to them losing a baby previously or if it’s just them knowing that the balloon popping was gonna set Bingo off and make her dad again (since they were trying to cheer her up in the first place). I talked about it with the wife and she thinks it’s the latter. I’m somewhere in the middle.

Just saw Sleepy Time for probably the 30th time

Definitely caught the order of Mercury, Venus (Bluey), and Earth (Bingo)
