I just realized. why aren’t these parents calmly explaining to their kids about why Bingos theater behavior is inappropriate instead of clutching their pearls at it.
It’s reddit, you know who the users there are and that there’s barely any parents Also, parents dont parent anymore today and rather shove ipads at kids so they both can doomscroll tiktok
One of the comments was literally a parent describing how they personally explained to their child that Bingo's behavior was inappropriate in real life. This sounds like a silly assumption to make on your part, honestly.
I watched this with my nieces (yeah I'm using them as an excuse to watch Bluey) aged 5 and 3, explained to them (especially the 5 year old) how Bingo's behaviour was inappropriate and that if they are ever taken to the movies how they would need to be well behaved.
Funny enough when I backseat watched this with kids (school) a lot of them said "Ugh Bingo is so annoying I would never act that way", "Bingo is being very rude she should know better". Maybe this was made to show a bad example of how to behave at the movie theater. Kid learn by example and a bad example can be useful at times.
Funnily enough, when I watched the episode, I didn't think about Bingo being out of character or annoying, I just thought of it as showing to kids misbehaving in theaters in general.
@@TheAlphaJayShow Probably at around 2-3 years old, but psychologically, the way she acted was more like she genuinely thought the theater was a playground or amusement park. but as kids will gather from a show exactly what's presented to them, it's kind of up to the show writers to explain that more clearly. Yeah having a bit of discipline and letting Bingo realize she was wrong to mess around because she thought it was a playground and didn't understand it was a place for quiet good behavior would've made this one of the stronger episodes. I think more so the reason people are upset with Bingo's behavior is becasue in this day and age, we see more and more parents letting thier kids destroy stuff and use the "they're just children!" excuse when from our generation, if I acted that way, better believe I'd feel that painful sting on my leg and learn the hard way that's not how you act in a public area. There just comes a point where the writers need to address these things properly, or else it'll lead to the target audience seeing the worse in every character, the very thing you said they were trying to avoid by not having Bandit scold her. Ironically.
@@zierragacha5089 but there was no actual punishment. My parents act this way towards my little sister (same age as Bingo) and brother, and I hate it. I've always been spoiled but at least I understood how to act because I ACTUALLY got scolded instead of being told "stop" a few times. I understand both sides, but as someone who has experience with parents not wanting to set boundaries with their kids, this episode isn't the best example. Yes, parents should explain to their kids that this behavior isn't okay, but the show is also a model to many kids and even adults. Even if some kids understand that the behavior isn't okay, others may not. I don't understand why it would receive so much backlash though, because, again, I understand both sides. Tell your kids that the behavior isn't okay and maybe don't put that episode on again??
I have a four year old and we went to see Sonic the hedgehog 3. He only was loud once or twice because he was excited about what was happening in the movie but other than that he was very well behaved. He had a blast for his first movie. Honestly at the end of the day it is a kids show and is trying to entertain. Just tell your kid that this kind of behavior isn't okay in real life and move on.
@TheAlphaJayShow I can understand that reaction if this was the first episode of Bluey someone watched. However, there are plenty of better Bingo episodes, like Sleepytime.
@@TheAlphaJayShow It's a shame too cause it seems the writers weren't considering that and pretty much framed the whole thing at the expense of Bandit for the sake of comedy. She seems adorable and innocent coming from a guy who has NEVER seen or even heard of Bluey outside of memes on twitter (this is literally the first time I ever heard thier voices), but this is definitely a case of "The writers messed up, not the characters". as you can tell what KIND of episode they were going for, but if Bingo was acting this way at home, it'd be perfectly fine to expect her to want to play while her sister is watching the movie. making the setting a movie theater though only makes Bandit look irresponsible. That little change is all they'd need to do to make the episode fine. Just have it take place at their house and Bandit brought home a DvD for Bluey to watch, then have it play out exactly the same with Bandit merely stressing that he wants Bingo to sit while they watch the movie but Bingo's just not interested in the movie after all. THEN his "Just be yourself" thing will hit better cause now we know Bingo doesn't care for movies and forcing her to sit down and watch it is just not what she wants.
Every show has a " bad" episode or season. This episode wasn't bad. I kinda feel for Bandit. Dealing with two kids with different issues at the same time can be stressful.
Yeah but it's up to the writers (who are all adults and should know better) to make that point clear. Make it clear that boundaries need to be set, that decisions need to be made and that as a parent, the responsibility of the kids is on you to figure out what to do and how to handle it. Bandit genuinely believed she was at a playground or amusement park, not a place where she needs to sit still and behave herself. This could've been a chance for her father to pull her aside (gently) and sit down and tell her "Listen Bingo, I know you want to have fun but there are times were we need to sit down and behave ourselves. Otherwise you could make someone really upset and could get really hurt. Say if you can sit still for a few minutes, I'll take you to the playground and you can run around all you want until your tired okay? But here, I need you to behave, can you do that for me?" a simple scene like that is all it'd take. the only reason it was written this way is because it's "funny" to see a kid act up and a scared parent tirelessly trying to keep them under control, but this ain't Ed Edd and Eddy where it's supposed to be silly and zaney. People take this show seriously enough that it genuinely hurts the reputation of the characters. a good writer should know this.
@@MarioMastar Excuse you, but this is clearly supposed to be how NOT to behave. Don't blame the writers. I get it'd take a single scene, but they are on a time limit for an entire season AND fans wanting everything perfect AND make important lessons. Imagine you in that place. If you couldn't handle that stress, why should they? Lay back a little. It's just a TV show. And seriously, it would take a 2 min or less Convo to tell your kids that you shouldn't do that. Easy. Stop blaming the writers; blame yourself for not telling your kids not to do that. With all due respect, goodbye.
This episode has proved to me that Bluey & Bingo are both potentially on the autism spectrum, both having different issues though. Bluey is afraid when a “scary” part of the movie comes on & is sensitive to loud noises, she also questions every little thing that happens in the movie (I did that a lot when I was her age & older), & bingo is really rowdy & just wants to run around to help her feel better & stimulated, kinda causing a bit of a ruckus. I say all of this because I’m autistic & I can just see both of their behaviors from a neurodivergent point of view.
The moral for Bingo definitely should have been something like “Maybe you’re just a little too young for theatres” or “We’ll try again when you’re a bit bigger” or something. I feel like the episode would have been less controversial if they just clarified that what Bingo did wasn’t ok
I feel like this was an episode where we needed both parents or even an Uncle Stripe or Aunt Trixie as an alt. Like, could've even shown Bingo an example like "Hey, look *even Muffin* knows how to sit still during a movie." or even have a dual POV where Trixie took Muffin and Bingo to a different movie and had to give them that lesson, while Bandit had to tend to Bluey.
When I was a kid, my mom (when she was alive) and I was at Bush Gardens. When we were in the middle of the line for the roller coaster called The Python I felt like wanting to go to the restrooms. Since she's not here to explain anything, I believe that when she noticed this "visit" happening more than once, she reassured me that it was probably nerves, "Chris, we're gonna ride this once. If you don't like it after the ride ends, I won't force you." I remember everything she said and/or done that sticks to me the most... [Mom, if you can read this from Heaven (if they have WI-FI), thanks for my rollercoaster. I love and miss you.]
I heard somebody mention that coaster at Busch Gardens (though I remember it being called the Anaconda) and saying that it was taken down to too much whiplash or something that was causing injuries to the riders.
As someone with a child in the age range of Bluey and Bingo, I used the episode as a teaching moment on how youre supposed to behave in theaters. She behaves perfectly in theaters now, but when she was 3 it was a little rough. Sometimes having your kid explain why the behavior the kid in the show is doing is bad can help them understand why they shouldnt do it
I was surprised considering the last episode’s parents were saying the same thing was too asparagus & Tina. Even ludo made a jab at the episode in show and tell. As if it was an alternate episode for the same lesson.
I actually relate to this episode. When I was little I was overly sensitive to loud noises, mostly at the movies when I stuff napkins in my ears to lower the volume. But as I got older I love going to the movies more then anything
I remember my parents saying they took me to see Aladdin in theaters but we had to leave because I was to sensitive to loud noise. Still am, but went to my fair share of movies with no problem.
Not going to lie, I was a BIT scared for the Sonic Movie 3 since when I watched the prequel (The 2nd One), the sound effects were cramming themselves in your ears. Then again, the theaters were in separate states + it wasn't the same corporation so that probably explains why 1 theater is so loud but the other isn't.
I was sensitive to other toddlers screaming when I was a toddler, which kinda sucked because toddlers scream a lot. It made it hard for me to play with them because I wanted to, but their loudness spooked me. I don't remember any of this but I know because my mother told me. I also didn't really scream at that age and I think it's because I would have hurt my own ears.
@@belleroseelizabethsmith8148 I remember how overbearing loud noises were as a kid. I didn't like loud movie theaters or concerts because I could literally feel the vibrations in my ribs and hated it. I guess growing up and developing an adult frame has made that not happen anymore but I'm still not a fan of unnecessary loudness, it blocks me mentally.
I can get why people would be upset about Bingo’s behavior here, but to me I’d rather have the parents just tell their kids that her behavior shouldn’t be replicated than making a big fuss about it
Pretty relatable. I'm sure we've had a younger sibling who wanted to go someplace where their older sibling was going. I was one of those younger siblings.
Honestly I kind of find that even more mysognynistic, because lately, a large thing that people have been doing is reducing feminine features on characters to make them look more gender neutral cause it offends men who don't have "defining features", yet you rarely see the opposite happen, adding eyelashes to male characters and giving them curvy bodies to show that people are allowed to look attractive if they desire regardless of gender. The neutering of the female body feels like a way to b8stardize women making it even more offensive. There's NOTHING...I repeat NOTHING wrong with a woman wanting to dress up and look attractive. NOTHING wrong with a girl wanting to wear a bow on her head. NOTHING wrong with women having breasts. and we need to stop that foolishness...ESPECIALLY in kids shows where children are practically being told they can't suck their mother's tits cause "boys don't have tits so it's not fair" or "it's sexist". THey literally are the reason we're f8cking ALIVE! Next we're going to tell women they can't give birth and MUST get c-sections because babies can't fit through the penis. we do NOT want to send that message to kids when abuse of women has been bad enough for the past 4000 YEARS!
@@idontknowwhattocallmyaccou349 So you want gender indicators? Why? You do realize indicators enforce a bed message about men being the default and women being the alternate? It's because of this idea you have girls who are pressured to dress girly so people never mistake men for a boy.
I remember being in bingo's position when I first went to a theater. Never got to finish Casper cuz we ended up leaving. Bingo being the hyperactive one in the ep always made me wonder if she got her first taste of caffeine or something before they got there.
@TheAlphaJayShow Know what? No I didn't. Turned out I just really didn't like it that much. Tried again on a VHS rental and I guess I didn't watch it cuz I didn't remember anything about it when I saw a Nostalgia critic vid on it years later.
@@thehedgehograpper I remember specifically we left during that part where Casper was doing a superman impression and the girl fell off the balcony. I think that scared me for some reason. 4 year Olds. Ha.
@ one movie that scared the shit out of me was Brave when the evil bear Mordu tries to kill Merida Edit: we did not leave the theater but that will forever be a core memory
a friend of mine went to a rated R scary movies in the middle of the night and she saw a mom bring 4 of her kids to it. They were clearly younger as 2 of them were sleeping while waiting in line and their youngest was crying during the movie. If Bandit was a bad parent for bringing his to kids a pg movie…what about that lady who brought her kids to a rated R movie?
How did they get in is the better question? If your going to watch edgy stuff not intended for your age demographic, at least do it on your own time at home, not at a theater with an audience or even a small group.
We saw someone do that, when we went to see a movie as a kid. When she took her kids out of that theater crying (We saw her leaving it as we were arriving) my mom couldn't resist the urge to parent shame. She gave her such a dressing down lmao
Most of the time, parents don't want their kids watching Bluey because sometimes they have misbehaving moments, thinking that setting a bad example for kids
At least Bluey isn’t as much of a brat as Little Brown Bear, DW Read or Caillou. But yeah, I do wish that it showed the characters getting consequences to teach the children watching it that actions have consequences. That said, I’m not asking for it to show the characters being spanked or anything. Sometimes they do show the natural consequences like having to clean something up is a good one, and talking things out with the kids is helpful too. But realistically, kids don’t always WANT to listen to reason. That’s when you have to put the foot down and discipline beyond a “good talking to”.
I guess I can understand that if the episode involves Muffin, as she's the spoiled kid who the parents don't know how to raise properly. However, there are moments where she does get what's coming to her, like in the Facetalk episode.
That's the problem adults act like kids are just going to copy everything they see a cartoon character do that is not the case children have more common sense than adults do.
As much as I can agree on said folks saying how they don't want their kids to behave the way bingo behaves at this one movie, that is something most parents need to teach and remind kids about if going to any movie, they cannot sing along, they cannot talk in the middle of the film, no kicking the seat in front of you, and be ready to be sitting at your spot for roughly 2-3 hours. It's okay to ask to go to the restroom, but remember that other people are trying to watch this film. With that said, I didn't have too much of an issue with this episode given how this is mostly meant to be about Bluey trying to fight her fear of thunder. And hilariously the movie acts one to one similar to what Bluey is experiencing at this moment. Chimpy wants to be on the ground while Bluey wants to see a movie for the 1st time. Bluey is scared of the idea of seeing lighting and loud thunder sounds in a big theater screening because much like in being at home (or on a car ride) if your in the middle of a huge rain storm with possible chance of lighting and thunder, there's a chance of random huge thunder (or quiet) sounds of thunder happening. But on the big movie screen it can be loud and having sensitive ears will hurt even as minor as just the music picking up very loudly for any action scenes.
That is an excellent point about parents needing to teach their kids how to behave, and as much as Bluey is for kids it's also for the parents to watch & learn from with them as well so this is a reminder for them to teach their kids appropriate behaviour from inappropriate.
What Bingo could have or should have been told was: "Be yourself, but also behave yourself" lol. Also, I can't help but feel the film Bluey is watching having this message of someone learning to be themselves despite what others may think is a commentary on how common that trope is in kids media, especially with the dad telling Bluey that he is pretty sure people will like that the monkey is different by the end lol 🤔.
I always thought the moral of this story was more along the lines of: Kids need to learn the easy lessons in ways digestible to them. How Bandit is clearly bored and tired throughout the entire movie but the message does help the person it was made for: Bluey
I don’t wanna call this episode “bad” just because it teaches a somewhat grey moral given the context. I’d call it realistic like the rest of the show can be at times. This is a pretty realistic take on how some kids can be when going to the theaters. Sure it might be a bit exaggerated when it comes to Bingo’s antics as I don’t think most parents in Bandit’s position would allow their child to be THAT unruly. But he was doing the best he could without making a scene. And it makes him much more sympathetic for it. I would imagine it would be pretty difficult to manage one kid who’s being wild and one kid who is emotionally vulnerable at the moment. And I think it’s good that this episode is clearly trying to put more responsibility on the parents for ya know, parenting their children. By having Bingo act out this way, they put more responsibility on the parents by drilling it into their children that it’s NOT always ok to act like this, or by choosing to not to show the episode to their kids. Overall I feel like the backlash to the episode is not due to the episode’s quality but due to the common occurance of parents not wanting to do their jobs.
@@TheAlphaJayShow I like Bandit kind of casually spoiling the movie about “I’m sure in the end, everyone’s going to be GLAD the chimp was different.” This isn’t his first kids movie, even if it’s his first time bringing both to the theater.
6:11 I can understand where both sides are coming from - This episode is probably not very good for a show primarily targeted at kids (who don’t already understand the expectations and manners), but it would be an incredible episode FOR parents who can undoubtedly relate to this “my kid won’t behave and I don’t know what to do” situation. Seems like a great one for the older teen/adult fans of this show, but not so much for young kids.
4:11 sensory friendly screenings are not child screenings, they're ment for those with sensory issues like autism, having a child running around being loud defeats the purpose of it being calm and sensory friendly. Idk why but that comment really bugged me lol
As someone who was raised oldschool, my heart goes out to Bandit in some extent, other times he brings this stuff to himself that Chilly even pointed out in a few episodes. There are indeed some bad moments in the show that has made me go, "really?", like Stripe and Trixi and their ways of parenting, you can see the stark difference between Bluey, Bingo, and their cousins in how they're raised. Just this one in particular hit me hard in my wallet, and it hurts.
Interesting. I took this episode’s sentiment to figuratively mean “let kids be kids, that includes the ones who are sensitive or hyper” but ig one could take it more literally to mean act up a whole lot in a movie theater lol. Also, for what it’s worth, not sure if this is one of them but there are times where it’s just a matter of cultural differences.
The thing is about hyperactive children that them being hyperactive can be detrimental to sensitive children. Which is brought up here in the video. If it was a sensory screening what about all of the kids who have sensory issues? Like Bluey herself
@aduckofsomesort like I said, I didn’t really take it super literal so I’ve no idea. I will say that nothing stood out to me that painted the theater they were in as part of a sensory screening so I can’t say that’s what was happening, especially since Bandit casually asks the guy at concessions if there’s anything potentially scary to some little kids. Pretty sure that would be covered without having to ask if it was part of a special experience like that. But that’s just my opinion.
I truly believe it was meant as an episode parents can have a chat with their kids about, and an episode to give parent a little warning like, "Hey, if you're bringing your younger children to the movie theater, think about bringing your Partner, a Friend, or a Grandparent for some extra help," or maybe wait a little longer for your kid like Bingo to grow up a little.
Surprisingly, this is not the first time this has happened. TikTok users massively complained about another episode "fat-shaming" even though Bandit was concerned for his weight and his only, it went to the point where the opening scene was taken out to satisfy the viewers. This? Sure they DID act a bit dramatic on Reddit but I can see why they're annoyed, the message was a bit shaky and Bingo acted like she was at the park (which is totally reasonable but still, I think they can make the message more clear without harming the episode. C'mon, it's Bluey for cryin out loud!)
This is actually my favorite episode. I was like Bluey as a kid, being different and finding comfort in stories/characters who were also different. I still do now. And as far as Bingo goes, yes she was acting up and i dont condone it. But folks have a tendency to put Bingo on a pedestal and paint Bluey as the "misbehaved" one. This episode is a reminder that both girls (and all children) are gonna have their good moments and bad moments. Both sides of the coin need to be acknowledged and handled accordingly.
Seriously, find me a single four year old who doesn't have an occasional bratty moment or off day. Bingo is a wonderful kid and a great character, but she isn't perfect; no one on Bluey is presented as perfect.
I do agree with the points that the adults are making about this episode. However, my main gripe with the episode is that it feels like it is trying to push one lesson (for Bluey) while there are two active problems (Bluey's fear and Bingo's disruption) in this episode. I love the lesson for Bluey of just being yourself and you don't need to prove that you can do the things like others can if you feel that you're not ready. For Bingo, yeah she basically has gotten no lesson. This could have been fixed a tiny bit if Bandit didn't say "just be yourself" when Bingo was just, you know... Removing Bingo from the episode would be much better, at least to me.
Hate double commenting but I also think the episode does have an important lesson for parents as well about how media can help kids. Bandit's dismissal of the lessons of the movie make sense because he's probably heard it a thousand times by now, probably in far darker stories cuz he's an 80s kid. Bluey is experiencing this for the first time and to her a story with a little more peril than she might be used to seeing on TV giving a lesson about overcoming fear through your own power and self can have a much stronger impact. Especially when she and Chunky's words line up. Bluey is as much a show about parenting as it is about teaching kids lessons, so getting that message to parents is a pretty important one.
Also I believe parents forget but the show is called Bluey, kids can recall the lesson based on the memory association of the name of the show, and because the noises where just as loud as they were in the movie theater they auditory memory will be similar to what Bluey experienced rather than Bingo, add in the fact that the movie would become the show every now and then so you associate the episode more with Bluey's Lesson rather than Bingo's choice of coping with Boredom. It's also pretty obvious that Bingo isn't being a thoughtful person at the beginning of the episode, and is also only along for the ride, when I was a kid I would've got so irritated knowing I was brought to the movie theaters just to watch my little sister make noise and run around in front the screen while I'm already worried. Too much stress it's obvious that there's more than one meaning there, kids aren't dumb and it sucks that parents would cut off a kid from one episode of Bluey but won't hyper-monitor what their kids watch on UA-cam Kids, they grew up with Ren and Stimpy and weird Disney Channel shows and Nickelodeon, one Bluey Episode and a Lecture is less than child's play it's practically as simple as skipping a rock. I've taught my siblings and cousins to speak, read, to do math, and to be kind, it's just another lesson they have to learn, what happened to better late than never lol.
I swear, when I saw Moana 2 with my family, there were two kids behind us that 👏WOULDN’T👏SHUT👏UP👏. They were loud as hell yet their parents didn’t do anything about it, the dad was sleeping and the mom was just clutching her nonexistent balls at telling them to stop.
this is normal kid behavior; I have 3 siblings (I'm the oldest) and there all under the age of 10. the younger ones have watched this episode several times and my parents didn't care they know bluey is fine for them to watch so they don't go through every episode. only me and my brother (the 2 oldest) have been to movie theaters because we are old enough to understand that there is a time and place to be running around and 5 year-olds can't understand that I think these parents are seriously overreacting. and remember to young children it's just some random thing they watch
Sure, it's ok to let kids be themselves WHEN THEY CAN! But it's also important to teach kids that acting out like this in a public setting (A movie theatre in this case) is not only rude and annoying. But can also be dangerous to them ESPECIALLY when acting like this near big, dangerous objects and other "certain" people
I though the episode parents would skip is Tina. I can see where these people are coming from in this episode, Movies. I don't think I've ever had that experience in theaters before, aside of the crying from babies and a bit of chatter from other people but if I ever seen someone acting like Bingo had done during the episode, yeah I would a bit concerned for the parents. But to me personally, Bingo is such a funny and energetic kid. Yeah, maybe it was on Bandit for bringing Bingo along but what else was Bingo going to do at home? Again I can understand where people are coming from for this episode but I think it's important to note that everyone has been through this or has experienced this and it's important to think that it's best not to be too hard on the kid.
That’s a great point. I def don’t hate or have harsh feelings for Bingo or Bandit. I’ve never been a father so I don’t want to make it seem like this specific experience would be easy to handle, but I would love to see the version of this episode where Bandit at least verbally and directly spoke more to empathy beyond Bluey.
I can see that episodes like Charades and Tina are not the only hated episodes from the show. I can honestly compare this to the Obstacle Course episode due to pretty similar flaws
This seems like the type of issue with people not liking Muffin. It's important to keep in mind the age that Bingo and Muffin are, developmentally they are at a stage where impulsiveness should be expected and I think that's what they were kinda going for here. Many parents discipline their younger children because of behaviors that are developmentally appropriate for their age because they aren't developmentally at a stage where they can improve yet. The show is pretty good about showing understanding to that kind of behavior because a lot of children can struggle with following directions and it's not because they're being a bad kid but just that they're being a kid. I just had a flight recently and I had a very young child sitting in the seat behind me. The 4 hour flight the child occasionally cried, was loud, and kicked the back of my seat. I think a lot of people would be very judgmental of the mother in this kind of situation when she did the best she could to get her child to behave. The only solution you really have as a parent(which I am not btw) is to not bring your young child into spaces where they can be disruptive and I don't think that's a very fair mentality to have all the time. For something like a animated kids film I would expect there to be kids like that at the theater as well. The kid on my flight was a little disruptive sure but I think people should be more personally accommodating given the age range. If the kid on my flight was older, ofc I'd probably have asked the mother if she could get the kid to stop kicking my seat or something but it's not really her or her kids fault and it really wasn't that bad on my end. Bingo's actions were exaggerated for this episode but I think the main takeaway I had was similar to that, like Bandit isn't a bad parent imo for being forgiving towards her behavior, if anything she's probably just not ready for the theater experience. I think too it's probably a bit of an assumption on Bandit's part that she'd be ok as in most episodes she usually isn't this hyper, I could see it being the type of thing where he wasn't expecting her to behave this way in the first place and it's probably something he'd keep in mind in the future. It's not like parents can always predict how their child will react to a new experience.
So correct - three and four year olds aren't miniature adults. Their brains are very different and developing rapidly. They're going to behave in ways that aren't acceptable to adults sometimes. They're literally supposed to; how else do they learn what boundaries are?
As someone with a cousin who loves bluey my least favorite moral is the episode “pass around” might not be the exact name but the episode revolves around a game where they unwrap a gift Wich was originally supposed to only have one gift but they added multiple, it felt like the moral was just “reject tradition” Wich in my opinion is the worst moral in the show but tell Wich one you thinks the worst or if the moral I mentioned is actually good
As a parent yes this episode did bother me a little, but I agree, just communicate with your kids. Another one I had issue with wsd the ice cream episode where their ice cream melts and bandit just gives them more. So much for “an important life lesson”. It was rewarding negative behavior. But the show most of the time does well.
I really didnt even think about how Bingo could be seen as a bad influence, I just viewed her as the comedic relief of the episode. I thought the real focus was the lesson for Bluey
feel like the moral should be bingo gets punished and taken by the mother away from the cinema to show that misbehaving doesnt get you what you want and that you can try again another time once you are ready. while also explaining to bingo that certain behaviors while fine in some areas are not in others.
Even at sensory friendly screenings, you aren't supposed to make a lot noise. It can negatively effect others who are there, that have audio sensitivities. I'm so confused why or how someone thought that was a defense. If anything, it's even MORE a reason this episode would be a horrible example of how to act. Sincerely, someone who's been to the very few that exist.
So people expected to sit and watch characters quietly watching a movie for 10 minutes? It's still a cartoon. Just teach your children instead of expecting the show to do it for you, man.
I don't think the episode is that bad but I can understand why parents wouldn't want their kids to watch it if they ever take their kids to the theatres. As someone who mimicked the stuff I saw my favourite characters and Caillou do on TV as a kid, I'm sure a lot of parents wouldn't want for their kids to do the same stuff Bingo is doing. I've seen parents say it's the same way with Muffin episodes, where they don't let their youngest kids watch until they're old enough to understand why it's wrong.
Another typical Reddit uneeded discussion... I'll just say these people are granting too much important for a kid misbehaving on a theater function (especially one that was specifically targeted at families and not even the premiere, those kind of screenings are more permissive given the age demography, they are prepared to deal with those kind of situations and are quite empathetic abour them, they are far more common than people think), can't help to note she was only 4 years old at the time and never experienced going to the cinema before, so she didn't have any reference to how to behave; in her sweet little mind all that matters is that 'this place is boring', we also have to take in mind Bandit didn't really had a choice but to bring her to the cinema with them because as he explained in the beginning of the episode 'it was Bluey's turn to decide what to do' and Chilli was probably at work so that wasn't an option either, it's truly no one's fault, just unfortunate circumstances to which they adapted at the end. These people are exaggerating, and considering this was spawned in Reddit, it doesn't surprise me.
Sensory friendly screenings is not actually for kids, it’s for people who have sensory processing disorders and autism or adhd, mainly for children who have those disorders. It is not meant to be for random toddlers running around like its a playground. I’m an autistic adult and I don’t go to sensory friendly screenings because the kids moving and parents standing up from there seats alot which defeat the purpose of it
Honestly, I think the episode where they started a court session over Bandit farting into Bluey's face was the worst. Yes, it was funny in a silly way, but for me as an older sibling. Looking at it from a parent's perspective, it was basically just a dumb compilation of poop jokes.
@aussie_kate pal, read the whole comment before replying. What I mean is that if a parent watched the episode with their kid, it would presumably disencourage them to allow their child to watch the show, thinking it's just stupid without getting to know how great the cartoon actually is.
I have a younger sister and bingo’s actions infuriate me to no end in this episode because of how she reminds me of my sister, who is twice as old bingo, and how my parents act similarly to bandit, not actually explaining or giving consequences for bad behaviour, and I know its irrational but every time I see clips of this episode i just can’t stop thinking about “thats dangerous bandit should explain that she can get hurt” or “be more careful with your things” and so much else
Moral of the story, if a child wants to stick a fork in a socket because they think it’s fun, it’s up to the parent to tell them no, because actions and “being yourself” are two very different things that this generation forgets, parents know what’s good for you, and being yourself vs being disrespectful are two very different things
1:57 $54 for three movie tickets?! I mean, I get that Australian dollars are worth less than American dollars, but still, that's $18 per person (that is, assuming adults and children are the same price).
There were certain ways that I don't agree with Bluey's parenting. That one episode where Chilli needs 5 minutes from all chaos in the house, Bandit needs to be firm and explain truthfully why his wife needs a moment to collect herself. A child will not understand if you beat around the bush. This is only my opinion. I don't blame the kids, kids are kids.
This is coming from someone who does not have any kids, but maybe those of us that do could use this episode to show them IMproper movie theater etiquette instead of hating on it and/or skipping it altogether.
As a die-hard Bluey fan.. yeah, this episode isn't one of my favorites. Bingo is usually pretty calm and easygoing in most episodes, so I don't know why they decided to make her exceedingly happy all of a sudden. But yeah, Bluey herself is pretty great in this episode.
Children are not consistent all the time, Bingo may be more even tempered but I think she will have her moments of being over energetic. We just don't see it off screen, and this episode we can assume it's one of those days 🤷♀️
I genuinely don’t hate this episode. Bingo may have been the wild child for an episode, but it’s not like it was handled completely poorly. I always looked at it like this, Bluey is the main character of this episode. She’s trying to face her fears and understand herself, something she’s never questioned before, because she’s older than her sister and is discovering a bunch of things as she does. But she’s the more heavily focused character. Everything revolving around Bingo-in reality-was to keep the people entertained. That’s why these complaints baffle me, Bingo not getting disciplined I can understand a little, but blaming Bandit is unnecessary. Bandit WAS trying to keep Bingo under control, he was telling her not to do things and was actively trying to stop her. Some kids can act like that, no matter how much you tell them no. That said, I will definitely agree about the moral in the context of Bingo, but I think it was clear this episode-and more accurately-the moral was more for Bluey than anyone else. Bingo was the side character to laugh at the shenanigans of while you focused on Bluey and was happened she learned the lesson. Parenting is a tricky situation and job, of course. It shouldn’t be taken lightly and what you teach your child is integral to their growth. But relying on a tv program to parent and teach your child the morals you yourself can teach them is not a good way to handle it. Parents need to set limits and boundaries for their children on what behavior they tolerate, not complain to a show that the episode failed to educate their child on said teaching. At least, this is my perspective. I can of course be wrong. Anyways, God Bless❤️💚🤍🙏✝️
I've never watched a single episode of this show and I am not a parent but if I had to take a stab at why the father told his youngest child to be herself at the very end was not so much the morale of the episode but instead to speak to the parents watching this show. Specifically how "Sometimes taking care of children is difficult especially when there's more than one and sometimes you just give in." It's not the right answer but I'm sure its a relatable feeling for parents. But yeah, I feel for a parent on their own taking care of two kids at once. Removing them from the theater is probably the right thing to do but its also unfair to the child who wasn't doing anything wrong to begin with and if I know one thing about human behavior, being punished for someone else's behavior will form animosity. A tough parent situation to be sure where I'm sure different people would have different solutions for.
That’s a great idea! An episode about bravery would’ve been better if it were at a theme park with Bluey building up courage to ride a rollercoaster like her friends. Also Bingo could be louder and run around a lot more at a theme park.
I absolutely think these parents missed the point of the episode. They should be able to understand how hard it is to keep such a young child from goofing off like Bingo was while also comforting another young child like Bluey. Parenting is obviously ridiculously hard in all scenarios. We should be able to give grace to the parents in situations like this :(( I feel like Bandit was SO tired by the time Bingo was ran to the bathroom. I fully understand why he wasn't able to handle them both, and I understand why the creators didn't have the chance to show the other adults reactions. I still love this episode.
If your an adult who gets upset over a children's show due to morals (which most cartoons don't even have), stay off the internet, cable tv, just don't watch anything. Just stare at a wall, though you'll find something wrong with it somehow
I’m not saying this about Bluey specifically since your comment is not about Bluey specifically, but just because something is a children’s show does not mean it should get off with doing whatever. Children deserve good media. And adults are the ones responsible for creating children’s media.
@@aduckofsomesort But not me though, sometimes I like going after the old stuff even in video form because some of this stuff has not been done justice anywhere on UA-cam in my opinion. And I do not care if the videos get any views or not and I'm not even paying attention to the numbers anymore.
In fact bingo might have ADHD or autism but if u look back at an episode bingo is left out so bingo might not be loved by her parents enough because like before there was a sign of a loss of a baby from a episode of bluey and bingo acting for there parents so bluey might be there kid they have to protect because of the trauma of the loss of the baby but as for bingo being left out because she wasn't the one after a baby who was lost by the two (and yes I forgot the moms name same as the friend but if u look back there are signs of bingo being left out and not loved by parents or people)
I think it's a matter of both sides. parents are responsible for teaching kids. And the makers of a kids show are responsible for providing a lesson. I think one path they could have taken to make it clear that bingo's behaviour isn't okay, is one line change at the end. "be yourself but that also means you're not one that's ready for movies yet. We'll try again when you're older." it sticks to the theme of "be yourself" but also acknowledges reality, that if your own self isn't ready, you gotta learn and become ready first.
Remember when Bingo reminded Bluey she can annoy her parents just as much Bluey does to them? Well, that really makes Bandit and Chili’s favoritism towards Bingo even more ridiculous especially since they complained about BOTH of their daughters being dissimilar. I’m not joking in Mini Bluey they confirmed Bingo is their favorite which was season 3, even though Bandit denied it in Kids which was back in season 1 episode 45. Every time I think about those two episodes; if Mini Bluey came before Kids, I could see why Bluey did it as revenge on her father for admitting he prefers Bingo over her, keep in mind that Bluey tends to looks up to Bandit because well, she doesn’t have an older sibling of her own. Now, everyone is claiming that Bandit and Chili favor Bingo’s behavior over Bluey, but I’m sorry, but that is still no excuse. The mistake Bandit and Chili made is: “Don’t let your kids do something that will make you dislike them.”. Their fault, not Bluey’s. Note: My least favorite episodes from Bluey are Mini Bluey and Obstacle Course because of how immature Bandit and Chili acted during these episodes. Look, it’s one thing to remind kids adults are not perfect, but we have to draw the line at times
All critiques of this episode are invalidated by those three seconds of Bingo under the hand dryer and giggling like it's the best thing that ever happened to her. It's one of the most adorable things ever and cancels any problems out! In all seriousness, I definitely get where parents who take issues with this are coming from. A show like Bluey is something many parents look to as a teaching aid because of the wonderful lessons it seeks to impart, so when it portrays Bingo's behavior here with no real lesson for her to learn, it's easy to understand why they would be concerned that their own kids might view it as something that's okay to do. That said, I do appreciate the parents who said that they had a discussion with their kids about it, still using even what they felt was a bad example and using it as a teachable moment.
How ironic this video appeared after I saw a movie with my friend today. We went to see Wicked when there was a sick six year old kid hacking nonstop. And the parents didn't leave or anything. The only thing they actually did was give their child medicine.
Why would you take a sick child to a movie? That's just dumb, the child should be at home resting. But funnily I literally went to Sonic 3 by myself yesterday as a 35+ year old man. There were probably 20-30 people in the cinema mostly kids as you would expect in such a movie (youngest was probably in the 4--6 year old range), they were loud during the trailers (especially a big group sitting directly behind me) but surprisingly once the movie started they were all quiet throughout the whole movie aside from expected laughter at the jokes.
I can completely see the parents view of this episode. In my mind the writers probably wanted an entertaining episode about going to the movies and since there isn't much excitement to have then they wanted to show how hamdful kids are in a cartoony way just to entertain
My parents honestly don't care about any bluey episodes we watch, they watch some too. They know we wouldn't have the guts or confidence to do anything like that in a theater. I find it funny but I know it isn't proper behavior but again, we wouldn't do this, and my family is reckless 😂
I feel bad for the kids who's parents threaten them rather than teach them properly. The parents would rather continue a cycle of pain than simply explain that the show isn't real and you should be polite in public but no. These parents will either raise future abusers or kids who will go no contact with them if it gets bad enough. (I say fron experience. I'm not contact with my own bio family)
If you ask my opinion (i mean this respectfully so sorry if you take offence) but adult fans need to grow up. WOULD YALL HAVE PREFERRED TO HAVE WATCHED A BLUEY EPISODE WHERE THEY JUST WENT AND CALMLY WATCHED A MOVIE??? Bingo well behaved? Nothing interesting happening? Sounds like great comedic material.
Whats with Charades?? What, do kids get to ask for anything and get it?? This episode ELUDES me. I made a lesson for EVERY. SINGLE. EPISODE. Except charades.
Honestly as much as I love what Bluey shows for my sisters. It furthers my want to not have children. Seeing these kids act like that makes me want to react like my mother did with me, with the hitting and the dragging and snapping at me. This show really points out how I would react with kids like these and honestly I'd rather not want that for a child growing up
Kid Danger: *wearing his purple scarf on his neck wearing his mighty pup movie outfit* Ok, I get it. My brother, Chevy man 30-30 the unicorn likes Bluey and I like PAW Patrol. But, Jesus Christ on a Honey Graham Cracker with a Toasted Marshmallow and Chocolate! Why is everycreature hating episodes of Bluey/PAW Patrol?! Why?! Because of the fucking fact that *uses his wings* "it's teaching my child to be bad and to be whiney". Christ! How?! No, seriously, how?!
@@KidDangerthepony Paw Patrol has become mindless garbage television for children that barely satisfies their little minds without toys or extra things. Bluey can be enjoyed on its own without anything else, and it isn't the same formula over and over with a few new characters. While I genuinely used to like watching Paw Patrol with my younger family members, now I just feel so bored watching it bc my mind goes blank.
what is interesting also is that Bingo is often the most calm out of the 2 Heeler sisters, especially before season 3, so i think that maybe her issue was more in being too young not to get bored by sitting for so long watching a movie she might not care that much about, so Bandit being noticeably tired in this episode it's understandable that he isn't fully on point here. regardless tho i can see why some wouldn't enjoy that much this episode
I just realized. why aren’t these parents calmly explaining to their kids about why Bingos theater behavior is inappropriate instead of clutching their pearls at it.
That’s what should have happened. I get the anger but this wasn’t worth it.
It’s reddit, you know who the users there are and that there’s barely any parents
Also, parents dont parent anymore today and rather shove ipads at kids so they both can doomscroll tiktok
@@user-10021 oh dang I should have known. this is the same reddit that has R/gachagaming mod discrimination against Wuthering Waves.
One of the comments was literally a parent describing how they personally explained to their child that Bingo's behavior was inappropriate in real life.
This sounds like a silly assumption to make on your part, honestly.
I watched this with my nieces (yeah I'm using them as an excuse to watch Bluey) aged 5 and 3, explained to them (especially the 5 year old) how Bingo's behaviour was inappropriate and that if they are ever taken to the movies how they would need to be well behaved.
Funny enough when I backseat watched this with kids (school) a lot of them said "Ugh Bingo is so annoying I would never act that way", "Bingo is being very rude she should know better". Maybe this was made to show a bad example of how to behave at the movie theater. Kid learn by example and a bad example can be useful at times.
Kids are kids, so I can understand why Bingo would act that way, and it’s realistic for many children. It’s moreso the moral that I find shaky here.
Funnily enough, when I watched the episode, I didn't think about Bingo being out of character or annoying, I just thought of it as showing to kids misbehaving in theaters in general.
@@TheAlphaJayShow Probably at around 2-3 years old, but psychologically, the way she acted was more like she genuinely thought the theater was a playground or amusement park. but as kids will gather from a show exactly what's presented to them, it's kind of up to the show writers to explain that more clearly. Yeah having a bit of discipline and letting Bingo realize she was wrong to mess around because she thought it was a playground and didn't understand it was a place for quiet good behavior would've made this one of the stronger episodes. I think more so the reason people are upset with Bingo's behavior is becasue in this day and age, we see more and more parents letting thier kids destroy stuff and use the "they're just children!" excuse when from our generation, if I acted that way, better believe I'd feel that painful sting on my leg and learn the hard way that's not how you act in a public area. There just comes a point where the writers need to address these things properly, or else it'll lead to the target audience seeing the worse in every character, the very thing you said they were trying to avoid by not having Bandit scold her. Ironically.
@@MarioMastar To be fair, Bandit did tell her to stop a few times
@@zierragacha5089 but there was no actual punishment. My parents act this way towards my little sister (same age as Bingo) and brother, and I hate it. I've always been spoiled but at least I understood how to act because I ACTUALLY got scolded instead of being told "stop" a few times. I understand both sides, but as someone who has experience with parents not wanting to set boundaries with their kids, this episode isn't the best example. Yes, parents should explain to their kids that this behavior isn't okay, but the show is also a model to many kids and even adults. Even if some kids understand that the behavior isn't okay, others may not.
I don't understand why it would receive so much backlash though, because, again, I understand both sides. Tell your kids that the behavior isn't okay and maybe don't put that episode on again??
I have a four year old and we went to see Sonic the hedgehog 3. He only was loud once or twice because he was excited about what was happening in the movie but other than that he was very well behaved. He had a blast for his first movie. Honestly at the end of the day it is a kids show and is trying to entertain. Just tell your kid that this kind of behavior isn't okay in real life and move on.
@@FunnyBunny161 I have to give you a good parent award for taking your kid to see Sonic The Hedgehog 3 instead of that garbage which is Mufasa.
@@SonicMovie3HypeGuy True
based first movie pick
I think I heard yall while I watched it. Alamo drafthouse? Or no.
@@SonicMovie3HypeGuy Aww thanks. I have loved sonic since I was a kid. Getting to see this movie with my son was amazing.
Bingo is an adorable cinnamon roll in general, but as someone who works in a movie theater, seeing her misbehave gave me flashbacks 😂😂
Bingo is a good character but if this was someone's first impression...yeah lol
@TheAlphaJayShow I can understand that reaction if this was the first episode of Bluey someone watched. However, there are plenty of better Bingo episodes, like Sleepytime.
@@TheAlphaJayShow It's a shame too cause it seems the writers weren't considering that and pretty much framed the whole thing at the expense of Bandit for the sake of comedy. She seems adorable and innocent coming from a guy who has NEVER seen or even heard of Bluey outside of memes on twitter (this is literally the first time I ever heard thier voices), but this is definitely a case of "The writers messed up, not the characters". as you can tell what KIND of episode they were going for, but if Bingo was acting this way at home, it'd be perfectly fine to expect her to want to play while her sister is watching the movie. making the setting a movie theater though only makes Bandit look irresponsible. That little change is all they'd need to do to make the episode fine. Just have it take place at their house and Bandit brought home a DvD for Bluey to watch, then have it play out exactly the same with Bandit merely stressing that he wants Bingo to sit while they watch the movie but Bingo's just not interested in the movie after all. THEN his "Just be yourself" thing will hit better cause now we know Bingo doesn't care for movies and forcing her to sit down and watch it is just not what she wants.
I feel like the creators wanted the Bingo part in this episode to be just funny, and didint think, that kids waching can immitate this behaviors
No Bluey is better than bingo
Every show has a " bad" episode or season. This episode wasn't bad. I kinda feel for Bandit. Dealing with two kids with different issues at the same time can be stressful.
Extremely stressful especially at that age
Yeah but it's up to the writers (who are all adults and should know better) to make that point clear. Make it clear that boundaries need to be set, that decisions need to be made and that as a parent, the responsibility of the kids is on you to figure out what to do and how to handle it. Bandit genuinely believed she was at a playground or amusement park, not a place where she needs to sit still and behave herself. This could've been a chance for her father to pull her aside (gently) and sit down and tell her "Listen Bingo, I know you want to have fun but there are times were we need to sit down and behave ourselves. Otherwise you could make someone really upset and could get really hurt. Say if you can sit still for a few minutes, I'll take you to the playground and you can run around all you want until your tired okay? But here, I need you to behave, can you do that for me?"
a simple scene like that is all it'd take. the only reason it was written this way is because it's "funny" to see a kid act up and a scared parent tirelessly trying to keep them under control, but this ain't Ed Edd and Eddy where it's supposed to be silly and zaney. People take this show seriously enough that it genuinely hurts the reputation of the characters. a good writer should know this.
I choose to interpret this episode as purposely showing what NOT to do when bringing small children to the movie theater
@@MarioMastar Excuse you, but this is clearly supposed to be how NOT to behave. Don't blame the writers. I get it'd take a single scene, but they are on a time limit for an entire season AND fans wanting everything perfect AND make important lessons.
Imagine you in that place. If you couldn't handle that stress, why should they? Lay back a little. It's just a TV show.
And seriously, it would take a 2 min or less Convo to tell your kids that you shouldn't do that. Easy.
Stop blaming the writers; blame yourself for not telling your kids not to do that.
With all due respect, goodbye.
This episode has proved to me that Bluey & Bingo are both potentially on the autism spectrum, both having different issues though. Bluey is afraid when a “scary” part of the movie comes on & is sensitive to loud noises, she also questions every little thing that happens in the movie (I did that a lot when I was her age & older), & bingo is really rowdy & just wants to run around to help her feel better & stimulated, kinda causing a bit of a ruckus. I say all of this because I’m autistic & I can just see both of their behaviors from a neurodivergent point of view.
The moral for Bingo definitely should have been something like “Maybe you’re just a little too young for theatres” or “We’ll try again when you’re a bit bigger” or something. I feel like the episode would have been less controversial if they just clarified that what Bingo did wasn’t ok
YES! THIS! Bandit could have said "We'll try again when you're a little older" and it would have been perfect
I feel like this was an episode where we needed both parents or even an Uncle Stripe or Aunt Trixie as an alt. Like, could've even shown Bingo an example like "Hey, look *even Muffin* knows how to sit still during a movie." or even have a dual POV where Trixie took Muffin and Bingo to a different movie and had to give them that lesson, while Bandit had to tend to Bluey.
And the worse thing is she was being forced to go even tho she said she didn’t want to go
Bandit should’ve got Frisky and Rad to babysitter
When I was a kid, my mom (when she was alive) and I was at Bush Gardens. When we were in the middle of the line for the roller coaster called The Python I felt like wanting to go to the restrooms. Since she's not here to explain anything, I believe that when she noticed this "visit" happening more than once, she reassured me that it was probably nerves, "Chris, we're gonna ride this once. If you don't like it after the ride ends, I won't force you."
I remember everything she said and/or done that sticks to me the most...
[Mom, if you can read this from Heaven (if they have WI-FI), thanks for my rollercoaster. I love and miss you.]
I heard somebody mention that coaster at Busch Gardens (though I remember it being called the Anaconda) and saying that it was taken down to too much whiplash or something that was causing injuries to the riders.
I'm sorry for your loss, hope you're ok now.
I'm sorry for your loss. And I'd like to think Heaven has the best Wi-Fi, smooth and not a single interruption ❤
1) sorry for your loss.
2) hey, I also went to bush gardens!
Sorry for your loss
As someone with a child in the age range of Bluey and Bingo, I used the episode as a teaching moment on how youre supposed to behave in theaters. She behaves perfectly in theaters now, but when she was 3 it was a little rough. Sometimes having your kid explain why the behavior the kid in the show is doing is bad can help them understand why they shouldnt do it
Wow, i guess even the most friendlest shows can have an episode that sparks debate for the parents....
Every show always has THAT ONE episode.
It very much surprised me.
@@Aego384 The Great Divide vibes. Or It's a wishful life. Or Arnold betrays Iggy. Or (maybe less controversial, only early seasons) Grandma's kisses
Especially with children's anime like Doraemon.
I was surprised considering the last episode’s parents were saying the same thing was too asparagus & Tina. Even ludo made a jab at the episode in show and tell. As if it was an alternate episode for the same lesson.
I actually relate to this episode. When I was little I was overly sensitive to loud noises, mostly at the movies when I stuff napkins in my ears to lower the volume. But as I got older I love going to the movies more then anything
The Bluey portion is very relatable
I remember my parents saying they took me to see Aladdin in theaters but we had to leave because I was to sensitive to loud noise. Still am, but went to my fair share of movies with no problem.
Not going to lie, I was a BIT scared for the Sonic Movie 3 since when I watched the prequel (The 2nd One), the sound effects were cramming themselves in your ears. Then again, the theaters were in separate states + it wasn't the same corporation so that probably explains why 1 theater is so loud but the other isn't.
I was sensitive to other toddlers screaming when I was a toddler, which kinda sucked because toddlers scream a lot. It made it hard for me to play with them because I wanted to, but their loudness spooked me. I don't remember any of this but I know because my mother told me. I also didn't really scream at that age and I think it's because I would have hurt my own ears.
@@belleroseelizabethsmith8148 I remember how overbearing loud noises were as a kid. I didn't like loud movie theaters or concerts because I could literally feel the vibrations in my ribs and hated it. I guess growing up and developing an adult frame has made that not happen anymore but I'm still not a fan of unnecessary loudness, it blocks me mentally.
I can get why people would be upset about Bingo’s behavior here, but to me I’d rather have the parents just tell their kids that her behavior shouldn’t be replicated than making a big fuss about it
Lol imagine Disney+ puts a disclaimer at the beginning of this episode.
I agree Bingo only wanted to go because Bluey was. Most likely acting up due to boredom.
Also there's a chance that Chilli was at work so Bingo couldn't be left alone by herself
@@sarahtelles1931 yeah most likely a last moment thing or just couldn't find a sitter

Pretty relatable. I'm sure we've had a younger sibling who wanted to go someplace where their older sibling was going. I was one of those younger siblings.
Once again have to give this show credit for its lack of gender indicators, not every girl character needs a pink bow.
Or pronounced eyelashes. Or curves.
Honestly I kind of find that even more mysognynistic, because lately, a large thing that people have been doing is reducing feminine features on characters to make them look more gender neutral cause it offends men who don't have "defining features", yet you rarely see the opposite happen, adding eyelashes to male characters and giving them curvy bodies to show that people are allowed to look attractive if they desire regardless of gender. The neutering of the female body feels like a way to b8stardize women making it even more offensive. There's NOTHING...I repeat NOTHING wrong with a woman wanting to dress up and look attractive. NOTHING wrong with a girl wanting to wear a bow on her head. NOTHING wrong with women having breasts. and we need to stop that foolishness...ESPECIALLY in kids shows where children are practically being told they can't suck their mother's tits cause "boys don't have tits so it's not fair" or "it's sexist". THey literally are the reason we're f8cking ALIVE! Next we're going to tell women they can't give birth and MUST get c-sections because babies can't fit through the penis. we do NOT want to send that message to kids when abuse of women has been bad enough for the past 4000 YEARS!

I remember being in bingo's position when I first went to a theater. Never got to finish Casper cuz we ended up leaving.
Bingo being the hyperactive one in the ep always made me wonder if she got her first taste of caffeine or something before they got there.
Did you ever end up watching Casper in full one day?
@TheAlphaJayShow Know what? No I didn't. Turned out I just really didn't like it that much. Tried again on a VHS rental and I guess I didn't watch it cuz I didn't remember anything about it when I saw a Nostalgia critic vid on it years later.
That “can I keep you” line is creepy af
@@thehedgehograpper I remember specifically we left during that part where Casper was doing a superman impression and the girl fell off the balcony. I think that scared me for some reason.

Edit: we did not leave the theater but that will forever be a core memory
a friend of mine went to a rated R scary movies in the middle of the night and she saw a mom bring 4 of her kids to it. They were clearly younger as 2 of them were sleeping while waiting in line and their youngest was crying during the movie. If Bandit was a bad parent for bringing his to kids a pg movie…what about that lady who brought her kids to a rated R movie?
I remember parents bringing little kids to Scary movie 3
While it’s a parody it’s still rated R/ unrated due to its adult jokes little kids won’t get
I saw Passion of the Christ when it came out, and some parents brought all their kids 😳
@@RyogachikOh I have terrible memories of seeing that when I was like 8. My teacher showed us that movie for Easter! I was totally traumatized
How did they get in is the better question? If your going to watch edgy stuff not intended for your age demographic, at least do it on your own time at home, not at a theater with an audience or even a small group.
We saw someone do that, when we went to see a movie as a kid. When she took her kids out of that theater crying (We saw her leaving it as we were arriving) my mom couldn't resist the urge to parent shame.
She gave her such a dressing down lmao
Most of the time, parents don't want their kids watching Bluey because sometimes they have misbehaving moments, thinking that setting a bad example for kids
At least Bluey isn’t as much of a brat as Little Brown Bear, DW Read or Caillou. But yeah, I do wish that it showed the characters getting consequences to teach the children watching it that actions have consequences. That said, I’m not asking for it to show the characters being spanked or anything. Sometimes they do show the natural consequences like having to clean something up is a good one, and talking things out with the kids is helpful too. But realistically, kids don’t always WANT to listen to reason. That’s when you have to put the foot down and discipline beyond a “good talking to”.
I guess I can understand that if the episode involves Muffin, as she's the spoiled kid who the parents don't know how to raise properly. However, there are moments where she does get what's coming to her, like in the Facetalk episode.
@foxtoons1999 I absolutely hate those characters, but I don't know little Brown Bear
That's the problem adults act like kids are just going to copy everything they see a cartoon character do that is not the case children have more common sense than adults do.
The problem for many is not that they misbehave, but that they get away with it with minimal repercussions
As much as I can agree on said folks saying how they don't want their kids to behave the way bingo behaves at this one movie, that is something most parents need to teach and remind kids about if going to any movie, they cannot sing along, they cannot talk in the middle of the film, no kicking the seat in front of you, and be ready to be sitting at your spot for roughly 2-3 hours. It's okay to ask to go to the restroom, but remember that other people are trying to watch this film.
With that said, I didn't have too much of an issue with this episode given how this is mostly meant to be about Bluey trying to fight her fear of thunder. And hilariously the movie acts one to one similar to what Bluey is experiencing at this moment. Chimpy wants to be on the ground while Bluey wants to see a movie for the 1st time. Bluey is scared of the idea of seeing lighting and loud thunder sounds in a big theater screening because much like in being at home (or on a car ride) if your in the middle of a huge rain storm with possible chance of lighting and thunder, there's a chance of random huge thunder (or quiet) sounds of thunder happening. But on the big movie screen it can be loud and having sensitive ears will hurt even as minor as just the music picking up very loudly for any action scenes.
That is an excellent point about parents needing to teach their kids how to behave, and as much as Bluey is for kids it's also for the parents to watch & learn from with them as well so this is a reminder for them to teach their kids appropriate behaviour from inappropriate.
I for one like the second moral where Bluey was willing to leave her comfort zone to enjoy a new kind of fun that wouldn’t hurt her.
A lot of growth comes from leaving your comfort zone 🙏
Bluey having a bad episode?
That’s impossible
That's what I said while reading the thread
@@Ihartwalrusguy you say that like every Bluey episode is bad.
@@PJ_Wendigo Nah, they're refering to how they're surprised Bluey has a bad episode
It reminds me of how the Doraemon fandom was like when they first discovered "I Saw a Ghost" (don't bother looking that episode up, it sucks ass)
Bluey has done the impossible.
What Bingo could have or should have been told was: "Be yourself, but also behave yourself" lol.
Also, I can't help but feel the film Bluey is watching having this message of someone learning to be themselves despite what others may think is a commentary on how common that trope is in kids media, especially with the dad telling Bluey that he is pretty sure people will like that the monkey is different by the end lol 🤔.
Even Bandit bemoaning "No, there's SONGS."
I always thought the moral of this story was more along the lines of: Kids need to learn the easy lessons in ways digestible to them.
How Bandit is clearly bored and tired throughout the entire movie but the message does help the person it was made for: Bluey
I don’t wanna call this episode “bad” just because it teaches a somewhat grey moral given the context. I’d call it realistic like the rest of the show can be at times. This is a pretty realistic take on how some kids can be when going to the theaters. Sure it might be a bit exaggerated when it comes to Bingo’s antics as I don’t think most parents in Bandit’s position would allow their child to be THAT unruly. But he was doing the best he could without making a scene. And it makes him much more sympathetic for it. I would imagine it would be pretty difficult to manage one kid who’s being wild and one kid who is emotionally vulnerable at the moment. And I think it’s good that this episode is clearly trying to put more responsibility on the parents for ya know, parenting their children. By having Bingo act out this way, they put more responsibility on the parents by drilling it into their children that it’s NOT always ok to act like this, or by choosing to not to show the episode to their kids. Overall I feel like the backlash to the episode is not due to the episode’s quality but due to the common occurance of parents not wanting to do their jobs.
I thought that the episode was okay. Not amazing or bad as people claim to be, but I can digest it enough.
Personally, I can’t help but think the other parents were enjoying watching Bandit running around after Bingo better then the actual movie.
Makes sense it's a kids movie after all. The parents need some entertainment
@ part of the reason I like this episode.
Also Bingo fluffing herself under the blow dryer is top tier kek.
That movie seemed pretty run of the mill lmao
@@TheAlphaJayShow I like Bandit kind of casually spoiling the movie about “I’m sure in the end, everyone’s going to be GLAD the chimp was different.”
This isn’t his first kids movie, even if it’s his first time bringing both to the theater.
6:11 I can understand where both sides are coming from - This episode is probably not very good for a show primarily targeted at kids (who don’t already understand the expectations and manners), but it would be an incredible episode FOR parents who can undoubtedly relate to this “my kid won’t behave and I don’t know what to do” situation.
Seems like a great one for the older teen/adult fans of this show, but not so much for young kids.
Just, because Bluey is a show that teaches kids’ morals doesn’t mean that they have to teach kids in EVERY episode
that is actually a pretty fair statement.
4:11 sensory friendly screenings are not child screenings, they're ment for those with sensory issues like autism, having a child running around being loud defeats the purpose of it being calm and sensory friendly. Idk why but that comment really bugged me lol
Thinking the same thing as someone with autism. Bingo would be a sensory nightmare
@@SilversSpecialTime I know right, I'm autistic too and even tho I love bingo she would stress me out so much irl 😭
As someone who was raised oldschool, my heart goes out to Bandit in some extent, other times he brings this stuff to himself that Chilly even pointed out in a few episodes. There are indeed some bad moments in the show that has made me go, "really?", like Stripe and Trixi and their ways of parenting, you can see the stark difference between Bluey, Bingo, and their cousins in how they're raised. Just this one in particular hit me hard in my wallet, and it hurts.
Interesting. I took this episode’s sentiment to figuratively mean “let kids be kids, that includes the ones who are sensitive or hyper” but ig one could take it more literally to mean act up a whole lot in a movie theater lol. Also, for what it’s worth, not sure if this is one of them but there are times where it’s just a matter of cultural differences.
There’s a lot of merit to letting kids be kids. That’s a fair point.
The thing is about hyperactive children that them being hyperactive can be detrimental to sensitive children. Which is brought up here in the video. If it was a sensory screening what about all of the kids who have sensory issues? Like Bluey herself
@aduckofsomesort like I said, I didn’t really take it super literal so I’ve no idea. I will say that nothing stood out to me that painted the theater they were in as part of a sensory screening so I can’t say that’s what was happening, especially since Bandit casually asks the guy at concessions if there’s anything potentially scary to some little kids. Pretty sure that would be covered without having to ask if it was part of a special experience like that. But that’s just my opinion.
Btw specking of movies we’re getting a Bluey movie in 2027!
It's like Pokemon: The First Movie all over again.
I truly believe it was meant as an episode parents can have a chat with their kids about, and an episode to give parent a little warning like, "Hey, if you're bringing your younger children to the movie theater, think about bringing your Partner, a Friend, or a Grandparent for some extra help," or maybe wait a little longer for your kid like Bingo to grow up a little.
Surprisingly, this is not the first time this has happened. TikTok users massively complained about another episode "fat-shaming" even though Bandit was concerned for his weight and his only, it went to the point where the opening scene was taken out to satisfy the viewers. This? Sure they DID act a bit dramatic on Reddit but I can see why they're annoyed, the message was a bit shaky and Bingo acted like she was at the park (which is totally reasonable but still, I think they can make the message more clear without harming the episode. C'mon, it's Bluey for cryin out loud!)
EXACTLY
This is actually my favorite episode. I was like Bluey as a kid, being different and finding comfort in stories/characters who were also different. I still do now. And as far as Bingo goes, yes she was acting up and i dont condone it. But folks have a tendency to put Bingo on a pedestal and paint Bluey as the "misbehaved" one. This episode is a reminder that both girls (and all children) are gonna have their good moments and bad moments. Both sides of the coin need to be acknowledged and handled accordingly.
Upvoting this comment, that is an amazing point you make 😁
Seriously, find me a single four year old who doesn't have an occasional bratty moment or off day. Bingo is a wonderful kid and a great character, but she isn't perfect; no one on Bluey is presented as perfect.
The most times when I watch cartoons, I'm looking for adorable characters and relatable moments
Reprobate furry.
Wow, I was not expecting my Reddit post to be used like this. Thank you!
Nice to see some fans in the subreddit ✨
I do agree with the points that the adults are making about this episode. However, my main gripe with the episode is that it feels like it is trying to push one lesson (for Bluey) while there are two active problems (Bluey's fear and Bingo's disruption) in this episode.
I love the lesson for Bluey of just being yourself and you don't need to prove that you can do the things like others can if you feel that you're not ready.
For Bingo, yeah she basically has gotten no lesson. This could have been fixed a tiny bit if Bandit didn't say "just be yourself" when Bingo was just, you know...
Removing Bingo from the episode would be much better, at least to me.
Hate double commenting but I also think the episode does have an important lesson for parents as well about how media can help kids.
Bandit's dismissal of the lessons of the movie make sense because he's probably heard it a thousand times by now, probably in far darker stories cuz he's an 80s kid. Bluey is experiencing this for the first time and to her a story with a little more peril than she might be used to seeing on TV giving a lesson about overcoming fear through your own power and self can have a much stronger impact. Especially when she and Chunky's words line up.
Bluey is as much a show about parenting as it is about teaching kids lessons, so getting that message to parents is a pretty important one.
Also I believe parents forget but the show is called Bluey, kids can recall the lesson based on the memory association of the name of the show, and because the noises where just as loud as they were in the movie theater they auditory memory will be similar to what Bluey experienced rather than Bingo, add in the fact that the movie would become the show every now and then so you associate the episode more with Bluey's Lesson rather than Bingo's choice of coping with Boredom. It's also pretty obvious that Bingo isn't being a thoughtful person at the beginning of the episode, and is also only along for the ride, when I was a kid I would've got so irritated knowing I was brought to the movie theaters just to watch my little sister make noise and run around in front the screen while I'm already worried. Too much stress it's obvious that there's more than one meaning there, kids aren't dumb and it sucks that parents would cut off a kid from one episode of Bluey but won't hyper-monitor what their kids watch on UA-cam Kids, they grew up with Ren and Stimpy and weird Disney Channel shows and Nickelodeon, one Bluey Episode and a Lecture is less than child's play it's practically as simple as skipping a rock. I've taught my siblings and cousins to speak, read, to do math, and to be kind, it's just another lesson they have to learn, what happened to better late than never lol.
I swear, when I saw Moana 2 with my family, there were two kids behind us that 👏WOULDN’T👏SHUT👏UP👏. They were loud as hell yet their parents didn’t do anything about it, the dad was sleeping and the mom was just clutching her nonexistent balls at telling them to stop.
I’m sorry to hear that
@dannyboi830 idk if this is just a coincidence but that sounded like my sister and her friend when we were watching moana 2
@ it was horrible
@ 🤷♂️
Why did you go to moana 2?
this is normal kid behavior; I have 3 siblings (I'm the oldest) and there all under the age of 10. the younger ones have watched this episode several times and my parents didn't care they know bluey is fine for them to watch so they don't go through every episode. only me and my brother (the 2 oldest) have been to movie theaters because we are old enough to understand that there is a time and place to be running around and 5 year-olds can't understand that I think these parents are seriously overreacting.
and remember to young children it's just some random thing they watch
Sure, it's ok to let kids be themselves WHEN THEY CAN! But it's also important to teach kids that acting out like this in a public setting (A movie theatre in this case) is not only rude and annoying. But can also be dangerous to them ESPECIALLY when acting like this near big, dangerous objects and other "certain" people
I though the episode parents would skip is Tina. I can see where these people are coming from in this episode, Movies. I don't think I've ever had that experience in theaters before, aside of the crying from babies and a bit of chatter from other people but if I ever seen someone acting like Bingo had done during the episode, yeah I would a bit concerned for the parents. But to me personally, Bingo is such a funny and energetic kid. Yeah, maybe it was on Bandit for bringing Bingo along but what else was Bingo going to do at home?
Again I can understand where people are coming from for this episode but I think it's important to note that everyone has been through this or has experienced this and it's important to think that it's best not to be too hard on the kid.
That’s a great point. I def don’t hate or have harsh feelings for Bingo or Bandit. I’ve never been a father so I don’t want to make it seem like this specific experience would be easy to handle, but I would love to see the version of this episode where Bandit at least verbally and directly spoke more to empathy beyond Bluey.
I can see that episodes like Charades and Tina are not the only hated episodes from the show.
I can honestly compare this to the Obstacle Course episode due to pretty similar flaws
5:51 bingo is adorable here
@@ArtisticHH57 AGREED
This bluey episode was fine but not terrible
This seems like the type of issue with people not liking Muffin. It's important to keep in mind the age that Bingo and Muffin are, developmentally they are at a stage where impulsiveness should be expected and I think that's what they were kinda going for here. Many parents discipline their younger children because of behaviors that are developmentally appropriate for their age because they aren't developmentally at a stage where they can improve yet. The show is pretty good about showing understanding to that kind of behavior because a lot of children can struggle with following directions and it's not because they're being a bad kid but just that they're being a kid.
I just had a flight recently and I had a very young child sitting in the seat behind me. The 4 hour flight the child occasionally cried, was loud, and kicked the back of my seat. I think a lot of people would be very judgmental of the mother in this kind of situation when she did the best she could to get her child to behave. The only solution you really have as a parent(which I am not btw) is to not bring your young child into spaces where they can be disruptive and I don't think that's a very fair mentality to have all the time. For something like a animated kids film I would expect there to be kids like that at the theater as well. The kid on my flight was a little disruptive sure but I think people should be more personally accommodating given the age range. If the kid on my flight was older, ofc I'd probably have asked the mother if she could get the kid to stop kicking my seat or something but it's not really her or her kids fault and it really wasn't that bad on my end. Bingo's actions were exaggerated for this episode but I think the main takeaway I had was similar to that, like Bandit isn't a bad parent imo for being forgiving towards her behavior, if anything she's probably just not ready for the theater experience. I think too it's probably a bit of an assumption on Bandit's part that she'd be ok as in most episodes she usually isn't this hyper, I could see it being the type of thing where he wasn't expecting her to behave this way in the first place and it's probably something he'd keep in mind in the future. It's not like parents can always predict how their child will react to a new experience.
Repulsive furry.
So correct - three and four year olds aren't miniature adults. Their brains are very different and developing rapidly. They're going to behave in ways that aren't acceptable to adults sometimes. They're literally supposed to; how else do they learn what boundaries are?
As someone with a cousin who loves bluey my least favorite moral is the episode “pass around” might not be the exact name but the episode revolves around a game where they unwrap a gift Wich was originally supposed to only have one gift but they added multiple, it felt like the moral was just “reject tradition” Wich in my opinion is the worst moral in the show but tell Wich one you thinks the worst or if the moral I mentioned is actually good
They changed it back to how it was originally played throughout the episode, but I see where you’re coming from.
My younger sisters love bluey, and movies is their favorite episode, It never changed their attitude in the movie theaters.
As a parent yes this episode did bother me a little, but I agree, just communicate with your kids. Another one I had issue with wsd the ice cream episode where their ice cream melts and bandit just gives them more. So much for “an important life lesson”. It was rewarding negative behavior. But the show most of the time does well.
I really didnt even think about how Bingo could be seen as a bad influence, I just viewed her as the comedic relief of the episode. I thought the real focus was the lesson for Bluey
feel like the moral should be bingo gets punished and taken by the mother away from the cinema to show that misbehaving doesnt get you what you want and that you can try again another time once you are ready. while also explaining to bingo that certain behaviors while fine in some areas are not in others.
That can be a very good episode!!
5:51 Say what you want about this episode, but Bingo under the hand dryer is one of her best moments for me. 🤣
@@Cure_Hana Same. It makes me laugh every time 😂
Dude, Bingo is a 4 year old, ALL KIDS THE AGE OF 1-5 ARE JUST KIDS!!! respect my opinion I like the episode
Even at sensory friendly screenings, you aren't supposed to make a lot noise. It can negatively effect others who are there, that have audio sensitivities. I'm so confused why or how someone thought that was a defense. If anything, it's even MORE a reason this episode would be a horrible example of how to act.
Sincerely, someone who's been to the very few that exist.
Bingo was definitely acting out of character in this episode
1:07 my favourite part 😂😂
I feel like this episode wasnt to teach proper theater etiquite but instead bingo was sorta a backround plot but kids wouldnt understand that
So people expected to sit and watch characters quietly watching a movie for 10 minutes? It's still a cartoon. Just teach your children instead of expecting the show to do it for you, man.
I don't think the episode is that bad but I can understand why parents wouldn't want their kids to watch it if they ever take their kids to the theatres. As someone who mimicked the stuff I saw my favourite characters and Caillou do on TV as a kid, I'm sure a lot of parents wouldn't want for their kids to do the same stuff Bingo is doing. I've seen parents say it's the same way with Muffin episodes, where they don't let their youngest kids watch until they're old enough to understand why it's wrong.
Another typical Reddit uneeded discussion...
I'll just say these people are granting too much important for a kid misbehaving on a theater function (especially one that was specifically targeted at families and not even the premiere, those kind of screenings are more permissive given the age demography, they are prepared to deal with those kind of situations and are quite empathetic abour them, they are far more common than people think), can't help to note she was only 4 years old at the time and never experienced going to the cinema before, so she didn't have any reference to how to behave; in her sweet little mind all that matters is that 'this place is boring', we also have to take in mind Bandit didn't really had a choice but to bring her to the cinema with them because as he explained in the beginning of the episode 'it was Bluey's turn to decide what to do' and Chilli was probably at work so that wasn't an option either, it's truly no one's fault, just unfortunate circumstances to which they adapted at the end. These people are exaggerating, and considering this was spawned in Reddit, it doesn't surprise me.
Sensory friendly screenings is not actually for kids, it’s for people who have sensory processing disorders and autism or adhd, mainly for children who have those disorders. It is not meant to be for random toddlers running around like its a playground. I’m an autistic adult and I don’t go to sensory friendly screenings because the kids moving and parents standing up from there seats alot which defeat the purpose of it
"Some people are afraid of going into the forest." Yeah, because bears are terrifying. If you see one, it's already too late.
People need to grow up and chill. It’s just a cartoon. They’re being dramatic
I LOVE bingo she reminds me of my little sister 😂
As a parent I can say we really do take things WAY too seriously
I love bluey❤ i never realize people didnt like this episode
Yeah, this episode kinda sucks
Honestly, I think the episode where they started a court session over Bandit farting into Bluey's face was the worst. Yes, it was funny in a silly way, but for me as an older sibling. Looking at it from a parent's perspective, it was basically just a dumb compilation of poop jokes.
and ? children laugh at poop jokes omg y are u so serious abt a children’s show help
@aussie_kate pal, read the whole comment before replying. What I mean is that if a parent watched the episode with their kid, it would presumably disencourage them to allow their child to watch the show, thinking it's just stupid without getting to know how great the cartoon actually is.
@justaboomer9091 why’d u say it’s a “ dumb cartoon “ and now ur saying it’s great ? make that make sense
@@aussie_kate
It actually makes perfect sense maybe you're too young to understand what OP is actually saying.
@@pinkdiamond1847 maybe ur too old to have fun ? ever thought of that?
I have a younger sister and bingo’s actions infuriate me to no end in this episode because of how she reminds me of my sister, who is twice as old bingo, and how my parents act similarly to bandit, not actually explaining or giving consequences for bad behaviour, and I know its irrational but every time I see clips of this episode i just can’t stop thinking about “thats dangerous bandit should explain that she can get hurt” or “be more careful with your things” and so much else
This is what happens when kids don’t get whooped
Moral of the story, if a child wants to stick a fork in a socket because they think it’s fun, it’s up to the parent to tell them no, because actions and “being yourself” are two very different things that this generation forgets, parents know what’s good for you, and being yourself vs being disrespectful are two very different things
I’ve actually never heard of a sensory screening in Australia…
1:57 $54 for three movie tickets?! I mean, I get that Australian dollars are worth less than American dollars, but still, that's $18 per person (that is, assuming adults and children are the same price).
There were certain ways that I don't agree with Bluey's parenting. That one episode where Chilli needs 5 minutes from all chaos in the house, Bandit needs to be firm and explain truthfully why his wife needs a moment to collect herself. A child will not understand if you beat around the bush. This is only my opinion. I don't blame the kids, kids are kids.
This is coming from someone who does not have any kids, but maybe those of us that do could use this episode to show them IMproper movie theater etiquette instead of hating on it and/or skipping it altogether.
As a die-hard Bluey fan.. yeah, this episode isn't one of my favorites. Bingo is usually pretty calm and easygoing in most episodes, so I don't know why they decided to make her exceedingly happy all of a sudden. But yeah, Bluey herself is pretty great in this episode.
And the show is really good 👍🏽
Children are not consistent all the time, Bingo may be more even tempered but I think she will have her moments of being over energetic. We just don't see it off screen, and this episode we can assume it's one of those days 🤷♀️
I genuinely don’t hate this episode. Bingo may have been the wild child for an episode, but it’s not like it was handled completely poorly. I always looked at it like this, Bluey is the main character of this episode. She’s trying to face her fears and understand herself, something she’s never questioned before, because she’s older than her sister and is discovering a bunch of things as she does.
But she’s the more heavily focused character. Everything revolving around Bingo-in reality-was to keep the people entertained.
That’s why these complaints baffle me, Bingo not getting disciplined I can understand a little, but blaming Bandit is unnecessary. Bandit WAS trying to keep Bingo under control, he was telling her not to do things and was actively trying to stop her.
Some kids can act like that, no matter how much you tell them no.
That said, I will definitely agree about the moral in the context of Bingo, but I think it was clear this episode-and more accurately-the moral was more for Bluey than anyone else.
Bingo was the side character to laugh at the shenanigans of while you focused on Bluey and was happened she learned the lesson.
Parenting is a tricky situation and job, of course. It shouldn’t be taken lightly and what you teach your child is integral to their growth. But relying on a tv program to parent and teach your child the morals you yourself can teach them is not a good way to handle it. Parents need to set limits and boundaries for their children on what behavior they tolerate, not complain to a show that the episode failed to educate their child on said teaching.
At least, this is my perspective. I can of course be wrong. Anyways, God Bless❤️💚🤍🙏✝️
I've never watched a single episode of this show and I am not a parent but if I had to take a stab at why the father told his youngest child to be herself at the very end was not so much the morale of the episode but instead to speak to the parents watching this show. Specifically how "Sometimes taking care of children is difficult especially when there's more than one and sometimes you just give in."
It's not the right answer but I'm sure its a relatable feeling for parents.
But yeah, I feel for a parent on their own taking care of two kids at once. Removing them from the theater is probably the right thing to do but its also unfair to the child who wasn't doing anything wrong to begin with and if I know one thing about human behavior, being punished for someone else's behavior will form animosity.
A tough parent situation to be sure where I'm sure different people would have different solutions for.
And yet, it is still better than any other episode of Peppa Pig...
eh peppa pig the og
Hold up what's wrong with Peppa Pig?
Peppa Pig has bland animation, maybe not too bland looking to the target audience, but still not very stylized either.
@@andykishore The writing in Peppa Pig is also very uninspired and "safe" (if that's the right term) compared to other preschool shows.
That’s a great idea! An episode about bravery would’ve been better if it were at a theme park with Bluey building up courage to ride a rollercoaster like her friends. Also Bingo could be louder and run around a lot more at a theme park.
I absolutely think these parents missed the point of the episode. They should be able to understand how hard it is to keep such a young child from goofing off like Bingo was while also comforting another young child like Bluey.
Parenting is obviously ridiculously hard in all scenarios. We should be able to give grace to the parents in situations like this :(( I feel like Bandit was SO tired by the time Bingo was ran to the bathroom. I fully understand why he wasn't able to handle them both, and I understand why the creators didn't have the chance to show the other adults reactions.
I still love this episode.
If your an adult who gets upset over a children's show due to morals (which most cartoons don't even have), stay off the internet, cable tv, just don't watch anything. Just stare at a wall, though you'll find something wrong with it somehow
I’m not saying this about Bluey specifically since your comment is not about Bluey specifically, but just because something is a children’s show does not mean it should get off with doing whatever. Children deserve good media. And adults are the ones responsible for creating children’s media.
You know the drill, avoid all of UA-cam, Twitter, and social media in general if you don't want spoilers on modern TV shows, movies, and video games.
@@aduckofsomesort But not me though, sometimes I like going after the old stuff even in video form because some of this stuff has not been done justice anywhere on UA-cam in my opinion. And I do not care if the videos get any views or not and I'm not even paying attention to the numbers anymore.
@@Wicked_Fox But what if they find a creak!!! They'll rant about it to the entire neighborhood! 😭😭😭
In fact bingo might have ADHD or autism but if u look back at an episode bingo is left out so bingo might not be loved by her parents enough because like before there was a sign of a loss of a baby from a episode of bluey and bingo acting for there parents so bluey might be there kid they have to protect because of the trauma of the loss of the baby but as for bingo being left out because she wasn't the one after a baby who was lost by the two (and yes I forgot the moms name same as the friend but if u look back there are signs of bingo being left out and not loved by parents or people)
funny enough I've been in this situation as one of the other movie watcher and none of the other 5 adults me included did anything like in the episode
I think it's a matter of both sides. parents are responsible for teaching kids. And the makers of a kids show are responsible for providing a lesson. I think one path they could have taken to make it clear that bingo's behaviour isn't okay, is one line change at the end.
"be yourself but that also means you're not one that's ready for movies yet. We'll try again when you're older." it sticks to the theme of "be yourself" but also acknowledges reality, that if your own self isn't ready, you gotta learn and become ready first.
Remember when Bingo reminded Bluey she can annoy her parents just as much Bluey does to them? Well, that really makes Bandit and Chili’s favoritism towards Bingo even more ridiculous especially since they complained about BOTH of their daughters being dissimilar. I’m not joking in Mini Bluey they confirmed Bingo is their favorite which was season 3, even though Bandit denied it in Kids which was back in season 1 episode 45. Every time I think about those two episodes; if Mini Bluey came before Kids, I could see why Bluey did it as revenge on her father for admitting he prefers Bingo over her, keep in mind that Bluey tends to looks up to Bandit because well, she doesn’t have an older sibling of her own.
Now, everyone is claiming that Bandit and Chili favor Bingo’s behavior over Bluey, but I’m sorry, but that is still no excuse. The mistake Bandit and Chili made is: “Don’t let your kids do something that will make you dislike them.”. Their fault, not Bluey’s.
Note: My least favorite episodes from Bluey are Mini Bluey and Obstacle Course because of how immature Bandit and Chili acted during these episodes. Look, it’s one thing to remind kids adults are not perfect, but we have to draw the line at times
All critiques of this episode are invalidated by those three seconds of Bingo under the hand dryer and giggling like it's the best thing that ever happened to her. It's one of the most adorable things ever and cancels any problems out!
In all seriousness, I definitely get where parents who take issues with this are coming from. A show like Bluey is something many parents look to as a teaching aid because of the wonderful lessons it seeks to impart, so when it portrays Bingo's behavior here with no real lesson for her to learn, it's easy to understand why they would be concerned that their own kids might view it as something that's okay to do. That said, I do appreciate the parents who said that they had a discussion with their kids about it, still using even what they felt was a bad example and using it as a teachable moment.
How ironic this video appeared after I saw a movie with my friend today. We went to see Wicked when there was a sick six year old kid hacking nonstop. And the parents didn't leave or anything. The only thing they actually did was give their child medicine.
ew
Why would you take a sick child to a movie? That's just dumb, the child should be at home resting.
But funnily I literally went to Sonic 3 by myself yesterday as a 35+ year old man. There were probably 20-30 people in the cinema mostly kids as you would expect in such a movie (youngest was probably in the 4--6 year old range), they were loud during the trailers (especially a big group sitting directly behind me) but surprisingly once the movie started they were all quiet throughout the whole movie aside from expected laughter at the jokes.
the poor child should be at home.
Not ironic..
@@Sevicify I feel like I've heard this story before.
Honestly with the amount of uninteresting movies in theaters right now, it's best for parents and kids to not go to one.
Love your video, Alpha Jay, and keep up the great work you are awesome
I can completely see the parents view of this episode. In my mind the writers probably wanted an entertaining episode about going to the movies and since there isn't much excitement to have then they wanted to show how hamdful kids are in a cartoony way just to entertain
My parents honestly don't care about any bluey episodes we watch, they watch some too. They know we wouldn't have the guts or confidence to do anything like that in a theater. I find it funny but I know it isn't proper behavior but again, we wouldn't do this, and my family is reckless 😂
My cousin was afraid of movies even tame ones at home when she was like 7 so yeah some kids are scared of movies
I feel bad for the kids who's parents threaten them rather than teach them properly. The parents would rather continue a cycle of pain than simply explain that the show isn't real and you should be polite in public but no. These parents will either raise future abusers or kids who will go no contact with them if it gets bad enough. (I say fron experience. I'm not contact with my own bio family)
If you ask my opinion (i mean this respectfully so sorry if you take offence) but adult fans need to grow up. WOULD YALL HAVE PREFERRED TO HAVE WATCHED A BLUEY EPISODE WHERE THEY JUST WENT AND CALMLY WATCHED A MOVIE??? Bingo well behaved? Nothing interesting happening? Sounds like great comedic material.
Whats with Charades?? What, do kids get to ask for anything and get it?? This episode ELUDES me. I made a lesson for EVERY. SINGLE. EPISODE. Except charades.
I agree I didn’t really like that one
Honestly as much as I love what Bluey shows for my sisters. It furthers my want to not have children. Seeing these kids act like that makes me want to react like my mother did with me, with the hitting and the dragging and snapping at me. This show really points out how I would react with kids like these and honestly I'd rather not want that for a child growing up
Parents should teach their kids how to act not a tv show. Even if you say “bingo isn’t acting the way she should in the movie theater.”
Kid Danger: *wearing his purple scarf on his neck wearing his mighty pup movie outfit* Ok, I get it. My brother, Chevy man 30-30 the unicorn likes Bluey and I like PAW Patrol. But, Jesus Christ on a Honey Graham Cracker with a Toasted Marshmallow and Chocolate! Why is everycreature hating episodes of Bluey/PAW Patrol?! Why?! Because of the fucking fact that *uses his wings* "it's teaching my child to be bad and to be whiney". Christ! How?! No, seriously, how?!
@@KidDangerthepony Paw Patrol has become mindless garbage television for children that barely satisfies their little minds without toys or extra things. Bluey can be enjoyed on its own without anything else, and it isn't the same formula over and over with a few new characters. While I genuinely used to like watching Paw Patrol with my younger family members, now I just feel so bored watching it bc my mind goes blank.
what is interesting also is that Bingo is often the most calm out of the 2 Heeler sisters, especially before season 3, so i think that maybe her issue was more in being too young not to get bored by sitting for so long watching a movie she might not care that much about, so Bandit being noticeably tired in this episode it's understandable that he isn't fully on point here. regardless tho i can see why some wouldn't enjoy that much this episode
HELP WHY IS EVERYONE SO MAD ITS NOT LIKE ITS REAL LIFE
Can any of you imagine, if the Movie was something involving PEPPA PIG🐷?!
thats when you teach kids how to cook bacon
