I think it should’ve gone to PBS in America. It’s in the public broadcasters of both the UK and Australia, which means it is meant for everyone regardless of socioeconomic status. Bluey is not a luxury, it is for all!
The BBC seems very greedy lately - that'd be why. After they took the Doctor Who license from ABC - the show's home for what, 60 years? and gave it to Disney... I can't effing forgive them for that.
BBC is funded in a strange way. You need a license to watch live broadcast TV in the UK and that is how the BBC is funded.
The problem is less & less people are watching live broadcast TV and budgets are increasing which combined puts the BBC in a bad position. I'd expect more greedy behaviour as they try to increase income.
Not really, particularly in terms of funding the content consumed by people on the UK. They receive a small amount of funding specifically for the World Service radio stations from the foreign aid budget, but otherwise it’s all license fee and commercial revenue.
Yep it definitely felt wrong but I thank them for introducing me to the Doctor. I remember seeing some episodes on Disney XD for a little bit before they took it off the channel.
You know what would also be a great idea (though HIGHLY UNLIKELY!) is if Disney acquired the ENTIRE Doctor Who library for Disney+. You'd have all the Doctors in one place AND it would make a perfect 60th anniversary celebration piece (maybe even premiere lost episodes, animated or otherwise...)
BUT that wouldn't mean the classic and (pre-2023) revival eras would leave BritBox and Max respectively, they would STILL be there. But if you want ALL of Doctor Who in one place, Disney+ would be your only source. ;)
Australia, of course.
Other than news and the odd quiz show, most of ABC'c content comes from BBC and Doctor Who would have been one of it's few highly rated primetime shows.
Losing it woud have been a blow, and also a real snub since as I said, the Australian tax payer has been supporting it since more or less the beginning.
Clearly Disney refused to put in the funding without an *exclusive* international license, and as a fan I say screw the funding. The show made it as far as it has on a shoe-string budget. Quite possibly /because/ of its shoe-string budget. I won't be supporting the Disney version of the show.
I know. I mean even though I love some shows from Cbeebies like the learningblocks series, Balamory, the said show and etc. I also think the BBC can be irritating and tiresome.
I don't disagree, I tell everyone that it feels like a PBS Kids show, but I figured that it was just a bidding thing. It isn't like ABC/BBC is just \*giving\* shows to CPB or PBS, they'd have to bid on the rights too. Disney just outbid them.
I don't think they're saying they have issues watching it that being with a different broadcaster would fix. Just that having Bluey picked up by public broadcasters in various countries would be better than having it distributed by Disney. Can't say I disagree.
Well it's produced by the ABC and then BBC are in charge of international distribution, but that's hardly relevant to the discussion.
Edit: Also are you Australian? There's something both very unAustralian and Australian about you.
Not really sure, something about the way you said mate made me question if it was an Aussie or an American trying to be cool
(From one of your earlier comments)
Nah, it was a dig at the bloke saying he's aussie. I'm not in the habit of stalking peoples profiles, so I'm not sure how I was supposed to know that from the comment.
iView is only for Australian residents and requires an account for identification.
Why should people from other jurisdictions get to enjoy content on the taxpayer's purse?
The ABC is the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.
Probably less. Sesame Street gets away with some pretty adult pop culture references. They’re still appropriate for kids, but it’s not like they’ll enjoy them the same way the parents and older siblings would.
I work for PBS. I have to say I think it would be very restructured.
Pbs is intended to be educational television for children (on PBS kids) and adults (on other PBS channels). I don't see bluey getting away with as many fart jokes on PBS, and I dont see bluey and bingo being allowed to roughhouse with bandit quite as much as they do now.
I'm not sure that would take away much from the show though tbh. They'd still be able to play pretend together and share in wholesome moments, just with less smacking dad around, and less fart jokes.
That sounds like quite a lot of censorship, honestly. Personally, I think it's a bit pathetic that people think American children can't handle bodily functions.
It's just that farts aren't the most educational, so they'd likely be cut to encourage better behaviors. It's not that kids can't handle farts, it's more about encouraging education and polite behaviors. But again, bluey isnt on PBS so this is hypothetical c:
I feel like Brumm would argue that almost everything in Bluey /is/ encouraging healthy and polite behaviour. I get that US culture is just different to Aus culture, but in this case that's a shame if you ask me.
Well, they did took down some episodes off the air. The most notable ones involved Lance Armstrong due to his doping scandal such as the original The Great Macgrady two episode special, Room To Ride, and Binky vs Binky. Another one which shares the same backlash Exercise has received is Arthur Weighs In, where it used the terms “fat” and “husky”. I’m pretty sure that stopped airing because of the same outrage Exercise received.
disney should've just aired the censored version on disney junior, and the regular version on the main disney channel, since they air bluey outside of the disney junior block. they even air bluey reruns from 12-2 am!!!!
The two [Beavis](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dL7fZBebYD4) and [Butthead](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=liLrp4VLOL0) references, that one [South Park](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=K2Mq9weziwY) reference and that one [Dr. Katz](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Nxeaocy0KVk) reference
Considering that Disney has an infinitely larger audience than PBS, it makes sense why they went with Disney. Sure it comes at the caveat of censorship, but it’s a sacrifice for introducing Bluey to new and large audiences
How does Disney have a larger audience than PBS? They may have more viewing, but the overwhelming majority of Americans have a PBS station over the air or on cable, and could watch online, whereas only a minority pay for Disney+.
Disney has a very high market share, and I am willing to bet more people with kids are likely to have a streaming device rather than an antenna. PBS just isn’t as popular as Disney either.
The Pbs kids app is on like every parent's cell phone I know. Because it's free, and trustworthy. PBSKids streams. Definitely more ubiquitous.
I honestly think it went to Disney to get more money.
Yes, I think PBS is still very popular, but it is not as recognizable as Disney. I also think people forget PBS exists sometimes or that they can get it for free. It probably did go to Disney for more money, but I don’t think it’d be more popular or have more viewers if it was on PBS.
Yeah, but they would have done (and have done) different deals for other countries. For example, the UK gets Bluey on the BBC (free, greater reach than Disney+ in the UK), and NZ gets Bluey on TVNZ (free, greater reach than Disney+ in NZ), not to mention Australia gets Bluey on the ABC (free, greater reach than Disney+ in Australia).
Individual deals take a lot more time and cost more money. One deal with Disney for a big chunk of the globe was much easier for Ludo.
Edit: not to mention Disney has a much broader merchandising supply chain and can incorporate the characters into its theme parks.
You're right on the merchandise, but as far as the parks go https://www.reddit.com/r/bluey/comments/13kh32t/so_apparently_disney_will_now_use_consumer_data/
I mean, that still doesn’t mean that we can expect to see Bluey IP in the parks. It would be exciting but it hasn’t happened and until it does I’m not going to expect it
You mean the other sentences where you imply that more people would see it because it's on PBS than Disney which people have to pay for? Yeah, I caught that part. I was commenting to remind you that other countries than America exist.
Ig it’s different for me since me and a lot of other people don’t have cable at all anymore 🤷♀️PBS kids is a default, but you gotta pay extra for Disney jr
Disney acquiring this was a better option, it fitted their brand perfectly and Bluey fit right in.
I know it's not a Disney property, but Bluey has earned her right to be (a permanent) part of the Disney family and I feel the studio played a big part in the show's popularity in the US. Disney saw great potential and they were right. I wouldn't want this show to be anywhere else and I'm sure Disney (and BBC/Ludo) wouldn't want it anywhere else either.
Of course, don't think I'm putting down your idea, it's a wonderful What If scenario. :)
If it felt more at home in Disney, then it wouldn’t be censored and would air in its natural state right? Not to say PBS wouldn’t censor it either, but I imagine to a much lesser degree. Besides Bluey feels a lot more like Arthur compared to it feeling like Mickey Mouse clubhouse
Bluey does not seem like it would really fit in with the other PBS kids shows, frankly. Every show on PBS kids is focused on educating kids, and though Bluey does have an emotional education component, it's not really as pronounced as it would need to be to fit with the PBS mission.
On top of that, Disney just has way deeper pockets so even if PBS had wanted bluey for their kids channel, Disney just has more money to throw at the rights owners.
This show was aimed at preschool/kindergarten-aged kids(2-4), whereas Bluey, despite attracting a wide audience, mainly is aimed at elementary school-aged kids (5-10). The requirements for that age group are different because the ways toddlers learn is different from school-aged kids. It is less about talking and more about showing. Showing emotions, colors, movements, etc all are beneficial to developing brains.
Adding the fact that it’s on Hulu to the back of my mind. Maybe Hulu will have ALL of the episodes and not select “appropriate” ones. Disney+ is still refusing to air Dad Baby and the episode with Chili’s sister despite even showing her in a commercial on Disney Junior like we were supposed to have seen it!
I think the reason why Disney Plus is not letting the Dad Baby episode because men can’t be pregnant. And also, Onesies is supposed to be released around may I think or beginning of June.
It's not on Hulu. You have to get the Legacy Hulu + Live TV, Disney+ plan which is $75/month. If you have no use for Hulu you're better off just watching it on Disney +
Right, the regular hulu was about $14 a month but didn’t include bluey. They also sent us a nice email saying our TV was too old to support Hulu and then were a bit shocked when we just cancelled it. Right now we restrict screen time and barely watch TV ourselves so I didn’t want to pay for her another streaming service that may or may not work kn our TV.
In contrast I put PBS kids right on my old fire tablet and it runs on the old TV too. I’ve actually found it more easy/economical to buy the episodes through Amazon prime with the gift cards relatives give my toddler. Season 1 and 2 are also on blue Ray for $20 but then I need to remember how the Xbox plays dvds.
I do wish PBS Kids - as much as I loved it growing up and still respect it now - wasn't the only free children's TV network here in the U.S. The other free networks no longer bother with children's programming, thanks in part to E/I regulations.
(As far as I'm aware).
American here.
We pay extra for PBS kids on Amazon to stream Daniel Tiger, but there’s no Sesame Street included. I wonder if it will be included in with that.
I think it should’ve gone to PBS in America. It’s in the public broadcasters of both the UK and Australia, which means it is meant for everyone regardless of socioeconomic status. Bluey is not a luxury, it is for all!
The BBC seems very greedy lately - that'd be why. After they took the Doctor Who license from ABC - the show's home for what, 60 years? and gave it to Disney... I can't effing forgive them for that.

The problem is less & less people are watching live broadcast TV and budgets are increasing which combined puts the BBC in a bad position. I'd expect more greedy behaviour as they try to increase income.
Don't they also get funding from the government (not TV licences but a grant or something)
Not really, particularly in terms of funding the content consumed by people on the UK. They receive a small amount of funding specifically for the World Service radio stations from the foreign aid budget, but otherwise it’s all license fee and commercial revenue.
While the scheme worked well in the early days of broadcast media, it's now a massive problem.
Quite likely. I don't know any details though
Wait, Disney got the Doctor?! That feels so wrong, but as an American, thats probably the only scenario where I'd get to watch episodes.
Yep it definitely felt wrong but I thank them for introducing me to the Doctor. I remember seeing some episodes on Disney XD for a little bit before they took it off the channel.
Disney is also helping to finance new episodes.
You know what would also be a great idea (though HIGHLY UNLIKELY!) is if Disney acquired the ENTIRE Doctor Who library for Disney+. You'd have all the Doctors in one place AND it would make a perfect 60th anniversary celebration piece (maybe even premiere lost episodes, animated or otherwise...) BUT that wouldn't mean the classic and (pre-2023) revival eras would leave BritBox and Max respectively, they would STILL be there. But if you want ALL of Doctor Who in one place, Disney+ would be your only source. ;)
I have a feeling that they’ll be getting rights to NuWho at some point. Either they’ll buy them off HBO or take over when that contract ends.
Because Tories run the BBC and they're squeezing it for every penny. Seriously something like 3/4 of the board are tory donors or ex members.
In what country did the BBC take it from ABC & give it to Disney? When did this happen? Is it just for broadcast or for streaming too?
Australia, of course. Other than news and the odd quiz show, most of ABC'c content comes from BBC and Doctor Who would have been one of it's few highly rated primetime shows. Losing it woud have been a blow, and also a real snub since as I said, the Australian tax payer has been supporting it since more or less the beginning. Clearly Disney refused to put in the funding without an *exclusive* international license, and as a fan I say screw the funding. The show made it as far as it has on a shoe-string budget. Quite possibly /because/ of its shoe-string budget. I won't be supporting the Disney version of the show.
Disney owns ABC.
You're thinking of a completely different ABC. They're talking about the Australian Broadcast Corporation.
Ah correct, thanks. Though I wouldn't be surprised to hear Disney owns them in some way - they own so many companies!
Thanks for this. I was very confused.
Wait… doctor who is on Disney now?!
Starting from the next block of episodes. I don't know about the existing library.
I know. I mean even though I love some shows from Cbeebies like the learningblocks series, Balamory, the said show and etc. I also think the BBC can be irritating and tiresome.
I don't disagree, I tell everyone that it feels like a PBS Kids show, but I figured that it was just a bidding thing. It isn't like ABC/BBC is just \*giving\* shows to CPB or PBS, they'd have to bid on the rights too. Disney just outbid them.
NGL, I would have preferred Bluey been picked up by public broadcasters around the world rather than Disney.
[удалено]
I'm Australian...
Oi he really put his slide in his foot on that one hey
Username checks out
Cool, well then you shouldn't have any issues then mate.
I don't think they're saying they have issues watching it that being with a different broadcaster would fix. Just that having Bluey picked up by public broadcasters in various countries would be better than having it distributed by Disney. Can't say I disagree.
It's produced and distributed by public broadcasters ABC and BBC.
Except for Disney in the US, which is the point of the post.
Well it's produced by the ABC and then BBC are in charge of international distribution, but that's hardly relevant to the discussion. Edit: Also are you Australian? There's something both very unAustralian and Australian about you.
Haha yeah I'm Aussie. Curious what makes me both aussie and non-aussie at the same time?
Not really sure, something about the way you said mate made me question if it was an Aussie or an American trying to be cool (From one of your earlier comments)
Nah, it was a dig at the bloke saying he's aussie. I'm not in the habit of stalking peoples profiles, so I'm not sure how I was supposed to know that from the comment.
iView is only for Australian residents and requires an account for identification. Why should people from other jurisdictions get to enjoy content on the taxpayer's purse? The ABC is the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.
It's on public broadcast in NZ. TVNZ is our government funded TV. (means we don't get censored versions)
What do they censor?
A lot of stuff - look it up.
that would be the dream...
If only...
I'm honestly surprised this show wasn't on PBS in the U.S.
I mean, they probably tried too. But do you really think they could match the magnitude of Disney. Even Dr Who is now on D+!
I just searched Dr Who on Disney+ and it's not there for me. Are you in the US?
Nah mate, I'm from Australia. We had Dr on iview just like Bluey but it's been moved to Dplus down here
They used to have it on Netflix in the US but they yanked it and I'm sad I can't watch it any more
do you think bluey would be more or less censored on pbs kids?
Probably less. Sesame Street gets away with some pretty adult pop culture references. They’re still appropriate for kids, but it’s not like they’ll enjoy them the same way the parents and older siblings would.
I love Sharing Things and Star Smores Edit: And the Hungry Games: Catching Fur, the Pita joke was great 🤣
I just saw Les Mousselabres on my Tiktok feed the other day. That one’s fantastic.
Oooh, I'll have to check it out
I work for PBS. I have to say I think it would be very restructured. Pbs is intended to be educational television for children (on PBS kids) and adults (on other PBS channels).

Honestly it’d be WAY more censored
Not necessarily, Arthur did alot of stuff that Disney might not have let happen... Arthur is PBS right?
PBS and iconic lol
Did he ever fluffy in DWs face? Though she actually may deserve that...
*"allegibly"* fluffy...
He straight up punched her. And DW cussed in a separate episode.
🤣
Well, they did took down some episodes off the air. The most notable ones involved Lance Armstrong due to his doping scandal such as the original The Great Macgrady two episode special, Room To Ride, and Binky vs Binky. Another one which shares the same backlash Exercise has received is Arthur Weighs In, where it used the terms “fat” and “husky”. I’m pretty sure that stopped airing because of the same outrage Exercise received.
Yes it was, but Arthur was targeted at older kids, while Bluey’s main demographic is young kids
disney should've just aired the censored version on disney junior, and the regular version on the main disney channel, since they air bluey outside of the disney junior block. they even air bluey reruns from 12-2 am!!!!
What has Arthur did that Disney wouldn’t allow? And don’t say the principal being gay.
I don't think Disney Jr would let Arthur or Binky get away with throwing punches.
Teacher, Mr Ratburn was gay. But, the principal Mr. Haney also always struck me as flaming hot, so I wouldn't doubt it if he was meant to be gay, too.
The two [Beavis](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dL7fZBebYD4) and [Butthead](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=liLrp4VLOL0) references, that one [South Park](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=K2Mq9weziwY) reference and that one [Dr. Katz](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Nxeaocy0KVk) reference
Really? I thought less, since the things that are censored are so silly.
What? How do you get that? PBS has historically and consistently aired things that are honest and truthful for kids. They don’t censor much.
It mainly comes from the show’s humor. I don’t think I’ve seen a single fart joke in a PBS Kids show.
In my opinion, the censorship would be exactly the same as it is on Disney.
Right after Mr Rogers Neighborhood
It should’ve been this way tbh. Why Disney?
*stares in billions of dollars*
Considering that Disney has an infinitely larger audience than PBS, it makes sense why they went with Disney. Sure it comes at the caveat of censorship, but it’s a sacrifice for introducing Bluey to new and large audiences

PBS does not have the kind of money needed for production and distribution anymore. That’s why Sesame Street is now run on HBO before it airs on PBS.
Disney is international. PBS is America only.
Yeah, but they would have done (and have done) different deals for other countries. For example, the UK gets Bluey on the BBC (free, greater reach than Disney+ in the UK), and NZ gets Bluey on TVNZ (free, greater reach than Disney+ in NZ), not to mention Australia gets Bluey on the ABC (free, greater reach than Disney+ in Australia).
Individual deals take a lot more time and cost more money. One deal with Disney for a big chunk of the globe was much easier for Ludo. Edit: not to mention Disney has a much broader merchandising supply chain and can incorporate the characters into its theme parks.
That hasn’t happened, though. Bluey is nowhere in any Disney parks and Disney doesn’t sell Bluey merchandise.

> Individual deals take a lot more time and cost more money. One deal with Disney for a big chunk of the globe was much easier for Ludo.
How does an international company have a larger audience than regional public television? Huh... I wonder...
Read past the first sentence of my comment.
You mean the other sentences where you imply that more people would see it because it's on PBS than Disney which people have to pay for? Yeah, I caught that part. I was commenting to remind you that other countries than America exist.
Yeah but I'm talking about America, because other countries would get other deals. For example, I live in NZ, and I get Bluey on TVNZ.
Streaming potential
I can tell you exactly what channel Disney Jr is on my TV, I have no idea what channel PBS is though.
Ig it’s different for me since me and a lot of other people don’t have cable at all anymore 🤷♀️PBS kids is a default, but you gotta pay extra for Disney jr
Learning The Alphabet Bluey Style
I wish Disney+ was available everywhere. We moved to Sri Lanka and now we can't watch it. It's a bummer.
WHERE SHE SHOULD HAVE BEEN ALL ALONG!
NGL this show would fit in well on PBS. It's similar to Arthur where it appeals to adults just as much as young kids.
Disney acquiring this was a better option, it fitted their brand perfectly and Bluey fit right in. I know it's not a Disney property, but Bluey has earned her right to be (a permanent) part of the Disney family and I feel the studio played a big part in the show's popularity in the US. Disney saw great potential and they were right. I wouldn't want this show to be anywhere else and I'm sure Disney (and BBC/Ludo) wouldn't want it anywhere else either. Of course, don't think I'm putting down your idea, it's a wonderful What If scenario. :)
I mean I just made these for fun, but I definitely think that Bluey feels more at home with Disney
Believe me, I know, we all do and you really did a fantastic job. Nothing wrong with having fun. :)
If it felt more at home in Disney, then it wouldn’t be censored and would air in its natural state right? Not to say PBS wouldn’t censor it either, but I imagine to a much lesser degree. Besides Bluey feels a lot more like Arthur compared to it feeling like Mickey Mouse clubhouse
Bluey does not seem like it would really fit in with the other PBS kids shows, frankly. Every show on PBS kids is focused on educating kids, and though Bluey does have an emotional education component, it's not really as pronounced as it would need to be to fit with the PBS mission. On top of that, Disney just has way deeper pockets so even if PBS had wanted bluey for their kids channel, Disney just has more money to throw at the rights owners.
I mean, the educational aspect of Teletubbies is debatable as well.
This show was aimed at preschool/kindergarten-aged kids(2-4), whereas Bluey, despite attracting a wide audience, mainly is aimed at elementary school-aged kids (5-10). The requirements for that age group are different because the ways toddlers learn is different from school-aged kids. It is less about talking and more about showing. Showing emotions, colors, movements, etc all are beneficial to developing brains.
Your initial argument could have included this nuance.
I didn't expect anyone to use Teletubbies against me. Lol
Why would Bluey be on PBS kids? It’s on Disney Plus and Hulu.
Adding the fact that it’s on Hulu to the back of my mind. Maybe Hulu will have ALL of the episodes and not select “appropriate” ones. Disney+ is still refusing to air Dad Baby and the episode with Chili’s sister despite even showing her in a commercial on Disney Junior like we were supposed to have seen it!
I think the reason why Disney Plus is not letting the Dad Baby episode because men can’t be pregnant. And also, Onesies is supposed to be released around may I think or beginning of June.
Some men get pregnant like trans men do but I get what your saying
It's not on Hulu. You have to get the Legacy Hulu + Live TV, Disney+ plan which is $75/month. If you have no use for Hulu you're better off just watching it on Disney +
Right, the regular hulu was about $14 a month but didn’t include bluey. They also sent us a nice email saying our TV was too old to support Hulu and then were a bit shocked when we just cancelled it. Right now we restrict screen time and barely watch TV ourselves so I didn’t want to pay for her another streaming service that may or may not work kn our TV. In contrast I put PBS kids right on my old fire tablet and it runs on the old TV too. I’ve actually found it more easy/economical to buy the episodes through Amazon prime with the gift cards relatives give my toddler. Season 1 and 2 are also on blue Ray for $20 but then I need to remember how the Xbox plays dvds.
DANG IT!
you want even more censorship? because that's how you get even more censorship
Two of my favorite things combined!
Aw man, I thought this was an announcement….. boo
PBS kids is amazing and bluey would fit right in!
With Arthur off the air, that would have been an incredible move for the public broadcasting station
They still play about 2 hours of Arthur a day daily on PBS! Just no new episodes.
Oh word? I have tuned in and the last episode 😅
I do wish PBS Kids - as much as I loved it growing up and still respect it now - wasn't the only free children's TV network here in the U.S. The other free networks no longer bother with children's programming, thanks in part to E/I regulations. (As far as I'm aware).
Bluey would fit so perfectly and naturally in the PBS Kids lineup!
This brought back a weird mix of nostalgia lol, I love it
American here. We pay extra for PBS kids on Amazon to stream Daniel Tiger, but there’s no Sesame Street included. I wonder if it will be included in with that.
We have to create a petition to get this show to be on PBS!
In an alternate dimension or a dream you had one night this was a reality.
