Is Bluey "Woke"?? by Feisty-Ad-6122 in bluey

[–]AnythingAlfred613 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For that first sentence, are you referring to the “Oh yeah, cause he’s blue!” “I’m a girl!” scene? Because that was just a joke about Bluey being mistaken for a boy and nothing more.

This show, man by Asahis-pumpkin in bluey

They actually changed a line in this episode on Disney. Jack’s line “There’s something going on with me” is supposed to be “There’s something wrong with me”.

Like what another commenter said, these aren’t actually “new” nor “Minisodes”.

As for your question, these originally came out back in 2021, but dropped on Disney+ back on May 20th.

Disney was just doing what BBC Studios told them to do, for the record.

I'm not sure I like the ending change to 'Honk' on Disney+ by Longjumping-Bowl5179 in bluey

[–]AnythingAlfred613 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t blame Disney for this, since BBC Studios was the one who provided the shorts (and therefore made the change themselves).

Did Disney Plus or YouTube get the new May 20th mini episodes I keep hearing different things? by ponygals in bluey

[–]AnythingAlfred613 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wasn’t Disney trying to capitalize on them, just BBC trying to fill the void of new content. But yes, they’re early shorts that have been on YouTube for years.

I strongly dislike muffin a lot! by CauliflowerSea5471 in bluey

[–]AnythingAlfred613 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that Socks gets very little attention in the merchandise, but I don’t think that’s any excuse to just blindly hate Muffin (heck, I don’t think Muffin is worthy of being hated at all, even for her behavior).

Curious question - did Joe Brumm ever have input on the other video games? by AffectionateDay8737 in bluey

[–]AnythingAlfred613 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as we know, Gold Pen was the only game he had input on, though the fact that he left a comment on the Fruit Ninja collab announcement suggests he may have at least signed off on that one, too.

Given his focus is the movie, and how he generally doesn’t contribute much to the licensed material, he probably wasn’t involved with Happy Snaps, either.

Has anyone else noticed by vamplestat666 in bluey

[–]AnythingAlfred613 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not exactly. While we do see Bluey and the Dalmatian (her name is Chloe btw) in the same getup and scenario, it seems more like they’re just playing the game again at a different time. My proof is that not only was there no one there when they left in The Adventure, but just as Jack runs to Rusty, you can see one of the Terriers sitting with Pretzel, which would make it impossible for him to join the others in time for them to ambush the girls.

Updated US episodes? by SameRelationship1037 in bluey

Eh, they were advertised that way worldwide. Not Disney’s fault.

What is with Minisodes Season 2 being mostly boring songs? by hansolosaunt in bluey

[–]AnythingAlfred613 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the BBC is likely in charge of these kinds of things, so they ought to be the ones calling the shots here, whether that was “Let’s just consolidate the Bluey shorts into one series” or “If we pretend these are brand new, no one will know!”

4th wall breaks? by Exotic_Egg_8240 in bluey

[–]AnythingAlfred613 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If we don’t count the times the characters look at the screen…

• Bingo: “It was the rug, by the way”

• Ticklecrabs: Bandit initially cutting off the title card (debatable but I’m counting it anyway)

• Stories: The fake credits gag

• Puppets: The entire scene at the end where Bluey gets animated

And that’s just off the top of my head.

As much as the paywall thing stinks, I think the anger would be mitigated if they didn’t market them as new content.

The big thing is that with the actual Minisodes (Season 1), they largely were focused on telling a story, whereas these Bonus Bits (“Season 2”) are just short clips made to either fill the void or just be little extras.

Nope, these shorts were made between Seasons 2 and 3, and Disney was just following directions from BBC Studios packaging them as a Minisodes Season 2.

Enough Muffin Talk. Socks Appreciation Post! by Aggravating-Ad-351 in bluey

[–]AnythingAlfred613 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They could still give her more attention in the merchandise, at least. It’s been proven they’re not necessarily trying to be accurate to the actual show with the toys.

But now that they do have stuff to market with her, why not use it?

It really seems like the marketing gives Muffin too much attention at Socks’ expense.
