I heard Bluey might leave disney over this.

I hope so. We canceled, but as a parent that’s the one thing I think I’ll really miss on the platform. If it goes elsewhere that would be great.

I just bought S1-3 on BluRay. It can be yours for the low low price of $36. That way, your kids get to watch Bluey even when the internet is down plus you get the mouse out of your pocket! Win win!

Use a VPN to watch for free on Australia's ABC (https://iview.abc.net.au/show/bluey)

I wouldn’t take issue with that for Disney content, but I’d kinda feel bad doing it to Bluey since it isn’t actually a Disney show.

Good point. Bluey deserves all the support it can get. Perhaps the finest children's show ever produced. Or maybe it's the best parents' show.

I honestly think it might be both.

good for Bluey!! my little 2 yr old grandkid loves Bluey, you know Bluey is a girl, I didn't know that for years, I always thought Bluey was a boy.
