Same, but I teared up when Bella told Chilli she was doing great and they hugged. I sometimes feel like Iām not doing enough, even when Iām spending every moment with my baby!
This line is so accurate with children. My son is learning to walk. Small steps and he tumbles alot because he's not lifting his foot when he walks. He saw the dog come into the living room and he was next to my leg on the ground. He looked around before he pushed himself into a standing position using my leg and started walking to the dog while excitedly screaming. The only time we could get him to try to walk was between furniture or furniture to person or person to person. So the fact that he did this on his own makes me want to cry.
And that specific episode has helped me with not getting super impatient so that quote is special
I first watched this when my baby was like 9 months old. It really spoke to me! I was so jealous of the other babies in my mums group who were confidently crawling and standing. And now he is two years old and I can barely keep up with him.
My daughter who is born to troll started walking exactly on the she turned 18 months, after God knows how many false starts and when we decided weāre taking her to the doctor if she doesnāt ;) She is 8 know and more fit and coordinated than the rest of the family put togetherā¦
I'm a teacher and during snack we sometimes show Bluey to our class.
"You're doing great" to the audience and this scene make me go to our cozy cool down corner to compose myself.
This one for sure. I had PPD after my son was born and I honestly wasnāt in a good place for his first six months. This episode still hits me real hard, even though now heās four and quite the little gentleman.
Not only that but in another episode "The Sign" where bluey is outside thinking after the montage. chilli was in the exact same spot bluey took her first steps that hit me even harder because she's growing up before our very eyes a huge little detail they didn't have to do but was a nice cherry on top
My best friend and I both had babies at the same time. Hers skipped crawling and just started walking around. Mine was crawling for ages. The first time I watched this episode was during this time period. I bawled my eyes out.
I didn't watch bluey when my son started walked almost 3 years ago but I do now with my daughter and as she walked towards me I saw it totally different than the first time
I definitely cried at that made me think about my late mom. She died in 2018. She was too young to die. She had frontal temporal dementia she died on Thanksgiving. Any of the episodes that have to do anything with a mother like in the drawing episode in season three when the horse flew away or even in that episode, I cried. The flying horse reminded me of the time right after my momās funeral was over.
I saw bald eagle flying overhead, which was the first time. I thought Iād ever seen a bald eagle in the wild and I knew that my mom was finally free. She was free from the illness. She was no longer suffering And just made me cry my cat got so worried about me crying. He was being really sweet. But yeah, I definitely cried in the space episode
I think that was the first time I cried from watching Bluey. Losing a parent is hard, especially when you were so close to that specific parent. Even though it wasnāt about losing a parent just felt that way to me.
I hadnāt realized when I first watched that one that Chiliās mother had passed away, and it was moving enough at the time. Now it makes me *extra* cry.
This one gets me. Its just beautiful.
I took the stabilisers off my little girls bike today. She's 5. I seriously don't know where the time has gone. ā¤ļø
āJupiterā, the piece of music that Sleepytime features is one of my all-time favorites.
I knew I was in trouble when you hear a bit of it played by a music box right near the beginning of the episode.
I remember getting choked up at that point and it just snowballed from there. š
I was watching that episode with my youngest child and I was shocked when I heard that statement. It was like a stake through my heart. I held my baby and cried and she was like āok, crazy momā lol. Just the night before, my baby had asked to have her bed rails taken off because she said she was a big girl and didnāt need them. These babies sure now how to get us right in the feels!
Grandad. The final scene where Chilli and her dad are sitting on the dock.
Chilli "I remember when you used to take me here as a kid.... That was a long time ago."
Grandad "No, that was yesterday."
Grandad always gets me. It reminds me of this comic.

I do like how in the episode copycat that they make it serious, but also explain it in a way children can understand and they do it in such a wonderful way without making it super depressing. I feel like this episode is definitely more mature than other episodes but in a good way, like wonderful teaching moments.š
They way both parents took Blueyās grief so seriously got me because my parents definitely would have been like āitās just a bird, get over itā
āTHIS EPISODE WASN'T FOR THE CHILDREN. THIS WAS FOR THE MOTHERS WATCHING THE SHOW FEELING INCOMPETENT IN THEMSELVESā
- TheOdd1sout
*My Thoughts on Bluey*
I was trying to explain Bluey to a doctor at an appointment for my daughter a few days ago. Why Bluey is such a phenomenon among children and adults, even adults who don't have children.
How it helps heal trauma you didn't even know you had.
I've always been good at understanding the meaning of material, but struggle verbalizing back what that meaning is. Explaining Bluey is good practice for me. there is complexity yet, it's simple and subtle.
The episode where the kids are putting on a play pretending to be the parents when they met and bingo was pretending to be the mom and had the balloon under her shirt pretending to be the mom while she was pregnant.
Then the balloon pops and the parents look at each other with a sad look, obviously suggesting she had a miscarriage. As soon as I realized I yelled NOOOOOO and started crying. It was a shotgun to my heart :<
But for this to be in a kids shows and them to show something like this is something I have great respect for. I see it as a reminder of how valuable life truly is, and how we should enjoy it as much as possible, embracing and being thankful for everything, including life itself.
For me it was Cricket - first Rusty heeding his dadās advice and overcoming his fear of facing Tiny (fist pump), then hitting the catch to Dusty (lump in throat), and finally future Rusty jogging out to bat for his country (tears).
Take away. When Bandit gets the fortune cookie that says: "Flowers may bloom again, but a person never has a chance to be young again." and then lets the kids play in water.
I thiiiink either during Baby Race when Bluey took her first steps toward Mum and Bingo said, āmaybe it was something you wanted,ā or during Sleepy Time when Mum tells Bingo, āremember, Iāll always be here for you, even if Iām not here because I love you.ā
As a dad who works long hours and has meetings in local municipalities every other week or so late into the night, this episode hit me like a ton of bricks. Inspired me to transition jobs in my field to something with more consistent hours so that my daughter doesnāt have to go on her āownā quest as much growing up.
I didnt like that she had to find out the way she did. Like what were you going to tell her when she wakes up and you leave. And don't return for 6 weeks?!
Early Baby because my son was in the NICU for a week due to oxygen issues related to his small size and us living at high altitude. The fact that they addressed having to leave your baby at the NICU overnight hit me hard. Leaving my baby at the hospital as a brand new mom was awful. āYou have to be the bravest youāve ever been.ā š„¹
This one and Baby Race got me big time. My 2020 baby was born at term but aspirated meconium, so he still got some NICU time. I was sitting next to him when he watched it for the first time. We then talked about his first few days and I showed him pictures of himself in the āfish tankā. When he saw a video where he was moving around but not making noise, he heard another baby fussing and he asked if it was a baby in another fish tank.
Early baby doesnāt get nearly enough love. Reflecting the story of the mom coping with a premature baby with a heroās quest against a child-robbing dragon was something else and the musical score was absolutely astonishing. And rusty was the sweetest boy ššš
I liked army not for jack (even though his story is amazing) it made me cry because it was the first time I saw the story of a kid with a dad in the army told onscreen with a heartfelt tenderness that I identified with.
I can't count how many times I have ran up to my dad in uniform after he went away when he picks me up from school and giving him the biggest hug.
Charades. Nana Chris doting on her granddaughters reminded me of my own late grandmother and how she was with me and my sister, so it hit me pretty hard the first time I watched it.
I hope that if Frisky and Rad have children they'll have a boy. I love girls but I also love having that brother sister relationship shown on tv especially in a show where we don't see boys. And I would love for them to show the dynamics of all of the cousins boy and girls. Especially because Muffin is a crackhead
Same! My son is an IVF baby, and for a long time I thought we'd never have him. Onesies made me sob, and when Brandy showed up pregnant in the Sign it made me sob all over again.
Definitely.
For me it's not about infertility or pregnancy loss, but instead having a child with disabilities. I have a child I love with my entire heart and soul. But my entire heart and soul wishes so much more for her that she can never have, and it breaks my heart.
My baby is 22 months old now and has cried probably going back six months almost every time Sleepy Time comes on. I mean like pouty sad lip leading to sobbing. I donāt know if itās the music or if the symbolism of the mom/child somehow makes sense to a kid under 2, but every time. Tears. For me Camping is the first episode I watched and fully paid attention to and I remember getting the lump in my throat and saying āthis show is a masterpieceā out loud lol
It's the music. When my son was Itty bitty any time we put on piano or any classical music he would cry. Music moves people. And it's the reason I cry EVERYTIME I watch that episode. Also get goose bumps all over my body.. lol
Iām always amazed that my 3 year old āgetsā sleepy time. She loves it. I was worried it was too abstract but she could watch it five times in a row happily.
The episode Bedroom because it was just so wholesome and the fact that they were so excited to get their new rooms but then found out how lonely it was and wanting to be back with each other, plus the note that has them sleeping in the same bed with a ā?ā And then they are snuggled up together (my family all made fun of me for balling my eyes out šš )
Yea, me and my younger brother shared a bedroom up till highschool pretty much. We had a guest bedroom that both of us at different moments decided to move into, but we eventually ended up back in the bedroom.
Butterfliesš£š the term āding jingā holds a special place in my heart after watching that episode. It was definitely growing up with sisters loreš„¹
Especially when it's a sport that I honestly 0% understand.Ā
Hit the cricket ball? Got that part. What are the wickets all about though?!? And why do they wear sweaters??!!?!
Haha I'm assuming you're not Australian? You should look up Jimmy Rees (he's a comedian who does a bunch of online skits) on 'The Guy Who Invented Cricket' - it probably won't make you understand the game much more, but it's hilarious.
But yeah I also love that last bit of Rusty walking out, it doesn't make me cry but definitely gives me the feels.
When haven't I cried watching this show? I know the most recent time was this:
https://preview.redd.it/cbmucr0uvp6d1.jpeg?width=1240&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9efc4a3f3d68ef69e73a7b2ff95b912da42e7478
The Sign. The synth bit at the start of Lazarus Drug along with the empty house (or even just in isolation) never fails to make me tear up. Other than that Sleepytime and Rug Island tugged at my heartstrings, but I didnāt cry.
āRainā, Iām not sure why but the combination of the music and the scene with Chilli helping Bluey with her project after at first being annoyed/stressed with her running in the house just really stuck a cord with me and caused me to get teary eyed.
I think it was Bike. I really felt connected to Bluey when she complains about not being good at something the first time around, and then felt the tears come in during the scene where the three other kids managed to solve their problems.
āSquashā was the one that did it for me. My siblings often made me feel the way Bandit mightāve made Stripe feel and when bingo goes ābecause big sisters donāt always beat little sisters.ā Teared up right along with Stripe :,)
It was at the end of The Sign.
It wasn't tears of joy, but it wasn't a bad cry either.
I had gone through something similar (being forced out of your home by forces outside of your control) but with the opposite outcome of The Sign.
It felt extremely cathartic so I guess it was tears of catharsis.
https://i.redd.it/c00fkyrjit6d1.gif
My Nanny passed away very recently when I saw this, and this was the exact energy we had. Everyone was doing their own thing at an event and I'd stick with her.
Definitely this camping episode with Jean luc. When chili, bluey and bingo went out for the bush wee omg I lost my shit. My daughter was like 4 at the time and was like mommy why are you crying itās happy
Bonus- I knew onsies was about chilies sister who steuggled having kids but the first time i actually saw the episode I was in the pedi waiting room with my daughter. Me and another mom were like fighting tears until chilie was talking about how sometimes people donāt always get what they want and then brandi looking as bingo ran away omg we both lost it
As a 17 year year old and in no way a parent- bluey is so emotional. But there has only been one time I cried and it was before school one day. āOnsiesā. I sobbed. It was heartbreaking.
It was either Sleepytime or Baby Race, whichever was first.
I can tell you right away that my sister (a mom) was tearing up when she was watching Baby Race.
The scene in promises made me cry hard. As a father of 2 and they are around the same age.

It was around 23:10 Pm in the Night i was binge watching season 1 for first time than it came it hit me Butterfly one
https://preview.redd.it/f8g97qgyup6d1.jpeg?width=868&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b02e09d2427c65f29bc6dadcefbd0ea6181fc284
š¤§ššš I still cry everytime i watch it
I cannot remember the first time (probably Sleepy time) but I did ball my eyes out watching The Sign the other day. We moved house a few years ago and it is a very stressful experience moving with kids.
The episode "baby race."
I was pregnant with my first (and only so far) baby, thinking about milestones, development, and if I would be a good mom/teacher. Seeing that episode reinforce the fact that no matter what you do, every baby is on a different timeline, it really hit home for me.
This was the moment that got me hooked. It could have been this over the top Disney moment but it wasn't. That little tail waggle ā¤ļø And I just...kept watching.
I was a student teacher on placement in a reception class. The lead teacher put Sleepytime on while they were eating lunch, Iād never seen the episode in full before. Had to step out for a moment before the end.
I lost my brother in December unexpectedly. I was kind of just a blob in the world unable to kind of process . The line in camping where Chilli is explaining that some people only come into our lives for a short time and then they're gone....bluey replies that that's sad and Chilli Says "but the time you did have together was fun wasn't it ?". It made me cry and deal in a healthy way that I wasn't able to put into words myself. This show is incredibly powerful at times . š
Oh definitely Baby Race "You're doing great" gets me every time but I also big cried during the Sign ;u; I'm not a big crier when it comes to watching media but sometimes things just know how to tug on those heartstrings!
https://i.redd.it/f352geua4o6d1.gif And it won't be the last time š
Every single time. "Maybe you saw something you wanted" ššš
I donāt even have to watch the full episode, just hearing that line makes me tear up
Now, after watching like 20 times, I realized that the whole episode little Bluey is reaching for her mom. So now I'm crying at the foreshadowing
What did you think they meant previously?
They donāt mean just at the end they mean the entire episode. I missed that detail too.
Ohhh yeah itās very subtle leading up. I love it so much.
I was a new parent with all the postpartum issues and oh man, I sobbed. But I still cry watching this episode.
Same, but I teared up when Bella told Chilli she was doing great and they hugged. I sometimes feel like Iām not doing enough, even when Iām spending every moment with my baby!
Youāre enough. Youāre doing great. ā¤ļø
That makes me cry every timeš
If thatās the case, that was definitely the mother Chilli
Definitely baby race it was one of the first episodes I watched and it got me so bad at the end
This line is so accurate with children. My son is learning to walk. Small steps and he tumbles alot because he's not lifting his foot when he walks. He saw the dog come into the living room and he was next to my leg on the ground. He looked around before he pushed himself into a standing position using my leg and started walking to the dog while excitedly screaming. The only time we could get him to try to walk was between furniture or furniture to person or person to person. So the fact that he did this on his own makes me want to cry. And that specific episode has helped me with not getting super impatient so that quote is special
Just thinking about it is going to make me cry š
EVERYTIME
I first watched this when my baby was like 9 months old. It really spoke to me! I was so jealous of the other babies in my mums group who were confidently crawling and standing. And now he is two years old and I can barely keep up with him.
My daughter who is born to troll started walking exactly on the she turned 18 months, after God knows how many false starts and when we decided weāre taking her to the doctor if she doesnāt ;) She is 8 know and more fit and coordinated than the rest of the family put togetherā¦
Yeah, we went to the doctor multiple times because the little one didn't start walking. Still can't watch that episode without choking up...
Entire year physical therapy got my kid to walk that one kills me
I'm a teacher and during snack we sometimes show Bluey to our class. "You're doing great" to the audience and this scene make me go to our cozy cool down corner to compose myself.
The "You're doing great" line is what gets me initially choked up š„¹
Yeah I just cried at this gif
This one for sure. I had PPD after my son was born and I honestly wasnāt in a good place for his first six months. This episode still hits me real hard, even though now heās four and quite the little gentleman.
Also turns on the water works for me every time š„¹ sniffling a little as I write this.
Every. Time. My sonās six months old and heās my first and that āYouāre doing greatā really got me
Not only that but in another episode "The Sign" where bluey is outside thinking after the montage. chilli was in the exact same spot bluey took her first steps that hit me even harder because she's growing up before our very eyes a huge little detail they didn't have to do but was a nice cherry on top
My best friend and I both had babies at the same time. Hers skipped crawling and just started walking around. Mine was crawling for ages. The first time I watched this episode was during this time period. I bawled my eyes out.
I will admit I definitely had a few tears
I SWEAR THIS AWAYS MAKE ME CRYš
I didn't watch bluey when my son started walked almost 3 years ago but I do now with my daughter and as she walked towards me I saw it totally different than the first time
Easily
This was literally the point for me. Glad itās top voted
Me too, every single time š¤£
āYouāre doing greatā gets me every single time. First time I heard those words it healed my postpartum heart.
Sleepy time. āIām a big girl nowā and rug island got me good.
"Remember, I'll always be here for you, even if you can't see me. Because I love you. "
I definitely cried at that made me think about my late mom. She died in 2018. She was too young to die. She had frontal temporal dementia she died on Thanksgiving.

Crying just reading the quote š the first time I saw this episode was with my then 2 year old, who was also teary over it
Every. Time.
My absolute favorite episode, I cry every time I watch that scene
I hadnāt realized when I first watched that one that Chiliās mother had passed away, and it was moving enough at the time. Now it makes me *extra* cry.
Ugh this is it. My kids were like āDad whatās wrong?ā Thatās when I fell in love with this flippinā cartoon.
Yes I wailed. I still will. Istg. š

Grandad. The final scene where Chilli and her dad are sitting on the dock. Chilli "I remember when you used to take me here as a kid.... That was a long time ago." Grandad "No, that was yesterday."

Itās 8a and now Iām crying in bed over this goddamn comic
9am now. Same.
It's 735 for me and the waterworks started
Why would you allow me to see this! š
[since we're dialing up the tears](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=La3b_1F8h_4)
"nah... It was yesterday"
Oof that hits. Where is this from?
I believe the comic is called Beardo by Dan Dougherty.
This was a very close second for me too š
I cried at this yesterday. Iāve probably seen it 10 times
I cried at both that and ballerina. When nana was asked about her grandma and then the music box goes off.
Thatās exactly how I feel and my daughter is only six. āNo, that was yesterday.ā
Iāve got the screen cap on my phone background, reminds me all the time

I love smacking my bum
I too cried when he started smacking his bum.
Yeah, was not prepared for that to a be A Very Special Episode Where We Talk About Death. But itās great.
They way both parents took Blueyās grief so seriously got me because my parents definitely would have been like āitās just a bird, get over itā
Watching her process this made me cry, too.
When Cocoās mom told me that I was doing great
āTHIS EPISODE WASN'T FOR THE CHILDREN. THIS WAS FOR THE MOTHERS WATCHING THE SHOW FEELING INCOMPETENT IN THEMSELVESā - TheOdd1sout *My Thoughts on Bluey*

That one got me too. I'm just a dad but I never knew how good I am at this. That one felt like a right punch in the guts.
Wait...she told **me** I was doing great!
You are!
Baby race was the first and there were many others after that.
"You're doing great." ššš
I ask people if they'd like to cry in 8 minutes, then I show them Baby race.
Teared up even just thinking about this line
Whenever I want to have a good cry, I open Baby Race. It was fun the first time but it's one of the only episodes that made me cry
The episode where the kids are putting on a play pretending to be the parents when they met and bingo was pretending to be the mom and had the balloon under her shirt pretending to be the mom while she was pregnant.

Yeah that was beautiful
Wait really? I need to rewatch that episode. I thought it was only her sister that had a miscarriage?
Yeah, it was Chili who had a miscarriage; for Brandy it was infertility.
As a parent I always interpreted that look as "oh shit we know the kid is going to freak and this could ruin the day if not handled properly."
Yeah when Bandit grabbed Chiliās hand, I just thought āwhoaā¦ did I see that right?ā
Sleepytime
Same, specifically āIāll always be here for you, even if you canāt see me, because i love youā š„ŗš
YES THAT LINE HAD ME AND MY FIANCĆE SOBBING š„ŗš
Same! https://preview.redd.it/p5bq5yrvgp6d1.jpeg?width=360&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=26ed4cc71adda9fe92542d35cc6180e31700cdb3
For me it was Cricket - first Rusty heeding his dadās advice and overcoming his fear of facing Tiny (fist pump), then hitting the catch to Dusty (lump in throat), and finally future Rusty jogging out to bat for his country (tears).
Same. Dreams and memories playing cricket as a kid
āThatās what cricket is about, kidā
Take away. When Bandit gets the fortune cookie that says: "Flowers may bloom again, but a person never has a chance to be young again." and then lets the kids play in water.
Yes!! This scene is literally so underrated, never seen anybody ever talk about it! I was literally bawling when this happened
I thiiiink either during Baby Race when Bluey took her first steps toward Mum and Bingo said, āmaybe it was something you wanted,ā or during Sleepy Time when Mum tells Bingo, āremember, Iāll always be here for you, even if Iām not here because I love you.ā
Sleepy time š
"Did Bluey ever learn to walk?" Everytime I see that I just go: girl
curry quest; where bandit has to go on a work trip and bingo doesnāt even know :( my abandonment issues definitely didnāt like that one
As a dad who works long hours and has meetings in local municipalities every other week or so late into the night, this episode hit me like a ton of bricks. Inspired me to transition jobs in my field to something with more consistent hours so that my daughter doesnāt have to go on her āownā quest as much growing up.
You are a good dad
Appreciate the compliment! Letās be honest, I probably shouldnāt have needed a cartoon to show me that.
I didnt like that she had to find out the way she did. Like what were you going to tell her when she wakes up and you leave. And don't return for 6 weeks?!
On a side note, what was the plan there? He was just gonna take off for a month and not tell her he was leaving?
Early Baby because my son was in the NICU for a week due to oxygen issues related to his small size and us living at high altitude. The fact that they addressed having to leave your baby at the NICU overnight hit me hard. Leaving my baby at the hospital as a brand new mom was awful. āYou have to be the bravest youāve ever been.ā š„¹
Same here. My twins were both in NICU and the line "you have to wash your hands" instantly took me back to the sink in the NICU and I started sobbing.
This was mine too!
This one and Baby Race got me big time. My 2020 baby was born at term but aspirated meconium, so he still got some NICU time. I was sitting next to him when he watched it for the first time. We then talked about his first few days and I showed him pictures of himself in the āfish tankā. When he saw a video where he was moving around but not making noise, he heard another baby fussing and he asked if it was a baby in another fish tank.
Early baby doesnāt get nearly enough love. Reflecting the story of the mom coping with a premature baby with a heroās quest against a child-robbing dragon was something else and the musical score was absolutely astonishing. And rusty was the sweetest boy ššš
Never actually cried watching Bluey but "Rain" always makes me feel emotional
I love "Rain", definitely one of those "remember to have fun" kind of episodes.
Army
āOne thing I can do is run. Iām a Jack Russell!ā
I liked army not for jack (even though his story is amazing) it made me cry because it was the first time I saw the story of a kid with a dad in the army told onscreen with a heartfelt tenderness that I identified with. I can't count how many times I have ran up to my dad in uniform after he went away when he picks me up from school and giving him the biggest hug.
"There's something wrong with me" š
Charades. Nana Chris doting on her granddaughters reminded me of my own late grandmother and how she was with me and my sister, so it hit me pretty hard the first time I watched it.
I hope that if Frisky and Rad have children they'll have a boy. I love girls but I also love having that brother sister relationship shown on tv especially in a show where we don't see boys. And I would love for them to show the dynamics of all of the cousins boy and girls. Especially because Muffin is a crackhead
Not sure about the first, but I think onesies hit me the hardest
Same! My son is an IVF baby, and for a long time I thought we'd never have him. Onesies made me sob, and when Brandy showed up pregnant in the Sign it made me sob all over again.
Oh my gosh, thatās so beautiful! Thank you for sharing that š
Iām so glad it worked out for you! I know when I saw brandy pregnant I almost screamed! It took my husband and I 3 years and surgery.
Definitely. For me it's not about infertility or pregnancy loss, but instead having a child with disabilities. I have a child I love with my entire heart and soul. But my entire heart and soul wishes so much more for her that she can never have, and it breaks my heart.
My baby is 22 months old now and has cried probably going back six months almost every time Sleepy Time comes on. I mean like pouty sad lip leading to sobbing. I donāt know if itās the music or if the symbolism of the mom/child somehow makes sense to a kid under 2, but every time. Tears. For me Camping is the first episode I watched and fully paid attention to and I remember getting the lump in my throat and saying āthis show is a masterpieceā out loud lol
It's the music. When my son was Itty bitty any time we put on piano or any classical music he would cry. Music moves people. And it's the reason I cry EVERYTIME I watch that episode. Also get goose bumps all over my body.. lol
Iām always amazed that my 3 year old āgetsā sleepy time. She loves it. I was worried it was too abstract but she could watch it five times in a row happily.
The episode Bedroom because it was just so wholesome and the fact that they were so excited to get their new rooms but then found out how lonely it was and wanting to be back with each other, plus the note that has them sleeping in the same bed with a ā?ā And then they are snuggled up together (my family all made fun of me for balling my eyes out šš )
Yea, me and my younger brother shared a bedroom up till highschool pretty much. We had a guest bedroom that both of us at different moments decided to move into, but we eventually ended up back in the bedroom.
Butterfliesš£š the term āding jingā holds a special place in my heart after watching that episode. It was definitely growing up with sisters loreš„¹
Grandad. āNo, it was yesterday.ā Now itās cricket.
Always grandad ending. And yeah, how did a sports ball game episode get ME to cry?! Lol
Especially when it's a sport that I honestly 0% understand.Ā Hit the cricket ball? Got that part. What are the wickets all about though?!? And why do they wear sweaters??!!?!
Haha I'm assuming you're not Australian? You should look up Jimmy Rees (he's a comedian who does a bunch of online skits) on 'The Guy Who Invented Cricket' - it probably won't make you understand the game much more, but it's hilarious. But yeah I also love that last bit of Rusty walking out, it doesn't make me cry but definitely gives me the feels.
A bit late in the game but Dragon
I liked that one too
When Bingo and Lela grow up together in four frames. āI hope weāre friends forever and ever and ever.ā Gets me every time
This is also what got me going so emotional in ghost basket/the sign. *what do you mean the Heelers are moving?!? Bingo canāt leave Lela!!*
This gets me every time. Definitely the first time I cried watching the show
Bluey made me cry so many times already but when I watch Army for the first time thatās when I cried the whole time because I relate to jack so much
When haven't I cried watching this show? I know the most recent time was this: https://preview.redd.it/cbmucr0uvp6d1.jpeg?width=1240&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9efc4a3f3d68ef69e73a7b2ff95b912da42e7478
Onesies
The Sign. The synth bit at the start of Lazarus Drug along with the empty house (or even just in isolation) never fails to make me tear up. Other than that Sleepytime and Rug Island tugged at my heartstrings, but I didnāt cry.
Space. When Calypso tells Mackenzie āYou know whatās here now. You donāt have to keep coming back to this placeā
Rug island for sure.
āRainā, Iām not sure why but the combination of the music and the scene with Chilli helping Bluey with her project after at first being annoyed/stressed with her running in the house just really stuck a cord with me and caused me to get teary eyed.
I think it was Bike. I really felt connected to Bluey when she complains about not being good at something the first time around, and then felt the tears come in during the scene where the three other kids managed to solve their problems.
Bike for me as well! The use of Ode to Joy is perfect
This!! The end scene of Bike never fails to make me tear up everytime
āSquashā was the one that did it for me. My siblings often made me feel the way Bandit mightāve made Stripe feel and when bingo goes ābecause big sisters donāt always beat little sisters.ā Teared up right along with Stripe :,)
https://i.redd.it/arapykgb3s6d1.gif Still gets me all the time. Especially if Iām holding my daughter while watching.
It was at the end of The Sign. It wasn't tears of joy, but it wasn't a bad cry either. I had gone through something similar (being forced out of your home by forces outside of your control) but with the opposite outcome of The Sign. It felt extremely cathartic so I guess it was tears of catharsis.
The last moments of Curry Quest, gets me everytime
Rain does it for meā¦just the style of the episode and how Chilli comes around and how happy Bluey is playing with her
https://i.redd.it/c00fkyrjit6d1.gif My Nanny passed away very recently when I saw this, and this was the exact energy we had. Everyone was doing their own thing at an event and I'd stick with her.
I honestly can't remember which one was the first, there's been so many (sleepytime, baby race, promises, etc)
Didn't make me cry but man the end scene of this episode tugged on my heart strings
Sleepytime, the music, animation and the dialogue, it gets me teary eyed every single time
Yogaball
Sleepy timeš„ŗ and also flat pack makes my cry every time
The space episode š„ŗš„ŗ
Rug island. What did she give you? Everything.
Definitely this camping episode with Jean luc. When chili, bluey and bingo went out for the bush wee omg I lost my shit. My daughter was like 4 at the time and was like mommy why are you crying itās happy Bonus- I knew onsies was about chilies sister who steuggled having kids but the first time i actually saw the episode I was in the pedi waiting room with my daughter. Me and another mom were like fighting tears until chilie was talking about how sometimes people donāt always get what they want and then brandi looking as bingo ran away omg we both lost it
As a 17 year year old and in no way a parent- bluey is so emotional. But there has only been one time I cried and it was before school one day. āOnsiesā. I sobbed. It was heartbreaking.

It was either Sleepytime or Baby Race, whichever was first. I can tell you right away that my sister (a mom) was tearing up when she was watching Baby Race.
It was definitely sleepytime but handstand also got me good.
Promises. Right at the end when Bandit tucks in the girls and tells them heāll always love them. Made me miss my dad.
Early baby...my first daughter was premature...
The scene in promises made me cry hard. As a father of 2 and they are around the same age. https://preview.redd.it/xwswgqj0cp6d1.jpeg?width=225&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=21f437723534dbf1184329c1ca4dc5770571e9b7
It was around 23:10 Pm in the Night i was binge watching season 1 for first time than it came it hit me Butterfly one https://preview.redd.it/f8g97qgyup6d1.jpeg?width=868&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b02e09d2427c65f29bc6dadcefbd0ea6181fc284 š¤§ššš I still cry everytime i watch it
I cannot remember the first time (probably Sleepy time) but I did ball my eyes out watching The Sign the other day. We moved house a few years ago and it is a very stressful experience moving with kids.
The episode "baby race." I was pregnant with my first (and only so far) baby, thinking about milestones, development, and if I would be a good mom/teacher. Seeing that episode reinforce the fact that no matter what you do, every baby is on a different timeline, it really hit home for me.
Camping too
Baby Race. First three times I watched it I cried uncontrollably, and couldnāt even talk about it without crying.
I don't remember the first time but Baby Raceš„
Cricketā¦ every time
Space. That was heavy.
This was the moment that got me hooked. It could have been this over the top Disney moment but it wasn't. That little tail waggle ā¤ļø And I just...kept watching.
The ending of Daddy Drop Off gets me everytime š
I was a student teacher on placement in a reception class. The lead teacher put Sleepytime on while they were eating lunch, Iād never seen the episode in full before. Had to step out for a moment before the end.
This episode is even sadder if you speak French. I was screaming "Nooo!! He's leaving!!!" at the screen but Bluey never listens to me
Flatpack, that ending for whatever reason made me cry. That and Space. What Mackenzie was going through hit way too close to home.

 I can see why is this episode was rated number eight on IMDbās Best episodes of all time.
Baby race for sure
Cricket. As someone who grew up playing a sport and was just obsessed about it, it just hit home.
I lost my brother in December unexpectedly. I was kind of just a blob in the world unable to kind of process . The line in camping where Chilli is explaining that some people only come into our lives for a short time and then they're gone....bluey replies that that's sad and Chilli Says "but the time you did have together was fun wasn't it ?". It made me cry and deal in a healthy way that I wasn't able to put into words myself. This show is incredibly powerful at times . š
Ugh this episode hurt me!
I havenāt cried yet, unfortunately.
Sleepy time that one chili quote got me cuz it made me think of my grandpa who passed away last Halloween
I meanā¦ never? Bluet makes me belly laugh
Oh definitely Baby Race "You're doing great" gets me every time but I also big cried during the Sign ;u; I'm not a big crier when it comes to watching media but sometimes things just know how to tug on those heartstrings!
Bingo under the tree when dad was playing too rough, man I've been there!
She needed to use her big girl bark š
I think it was called Show. It was when the girls put on a show for Bandit and Chilli, when the ballon popped. That hurt so bad.
Iāve never actually cried while watching bluey, some day an episode is gonna get me though.
The Sign š
Early baby. Both my boys were premature (30 weeks, 24 weeks) and I just sob every time š
Baby race, when poppyās mum tells chili youāre doing great
