Sleepytime bluey episode1/10/2024 They are very imaginative and their parents Bandit and Chili are the type of parents you’d want to be friends with and aspire to be more like as a human. Like, I’ve never watched an animated show in which I’ve coveted the animated furnishings (except for maybe Peppa Pig’s camper van, which could double as a mobile she shed that I could disappear into whenever the members of my household got too loud or demanding), but I would legit Pin-terest their whole house if I could. The mid-century modern light fixture in their living room? The coolest. And don’t even get me started on the the stained glass transoms! The alpine-inspired cutouts over the doorways? Whimsical. We watch a lot of “Bluey” around here, which is easy to do because each episode is less than 10 minutes long. The show focuses on these pockets of everyday experience. Waiting for take out (or, “Takeaway,” rather).Ī visit to the local home improvement store (it’s called the Hammerbarn – if you’ve been into a Lowes or a Home Depot, it’s the animated version of that). There’s an entire episode focused on Bluey and Bingo trying not to let a balloon touch the ground for a game called Keepy Uppy. Any episode where Bluey and Bingo pretend to be their Grannie alter egos Rita and Janet is highly amusing. “Bluey” always leads with imagination, humor, and relatable life situations. And it never shies away from big feelings and tender, earnest humanity (albeit in dog form). The Bluey team deserves all the awards they can get.Which brings us back to “Sleepytime,” an episode that perfectly captures the long nights of early parenthood. Without a shadow of a doubt, this is the most emotive piece of media I have ever seen. We’ve watched it 4 times now and STILL I end up crying. I think about how much I love my own mother, and how much I don’t want to leave my son when my time comes, no matter how old her is. I started to cry when Floppy left, then when Chilli turned up as the sun, I ‘had to go to the toilet’, where I just utterly broke down. I don’t know if it’s being a parent, but it seems to explain the enormous amount of love I feel for my child and the pains of loss I felt growing up/watching him grow, so precisely. It’s difficult for me to be involved so much that it would elicit a reaction that I really don’t do very much of. Some back story, I don’t cry at TV, or movies. I had to search for somewhere to process my feelings after watching this episode. Of course the actual story was elegantly simple with the kind of emotional pay-off that is a hallmark of Bluey-at-its-best. The animation on this show is consistently gorgeous and brilliantly designed, but today's episode went above and beyond in taking us on a tour of the solar system the 'lighting' added so much - check out the part late in the episode where we're taking around the quiet Heeler house at night, with the moonlight streaming in through the windows revealing microscopic motes of dust - just wonderful. always deliver with music that elevates the material, but today's effort was one of their very finest moments the score was positively cinematic and as is often the case it elicited a real emotional response from me. I've always rated Fruit bat as being one of the very best episodes due to it's imaginative dream logic, 'Sleepytime' picks up that thread and weaves something truly original and memorable in depicting Bingo's dream a 'mash-up' (as my daughter described it) of her two bedtime stories. Spectacularly beautiful episode of Bluey (or was that Bingo E2!?) this morning surreal and magical.
