Topic: Bluey: The Sign
Have you had a chance to watch Bluey: The Sign? What did you think? I can't believe I'm saying this about a Disney Junior Show, but spoilers allowed.

Tony I just want to know what people think Chilly got up to at the lookout, my wife and I disagree

Brandon Reed My thought was that they "partook of grass," as dogs often do.

Nadine . I thought they'd take their boyfriends there and make out, cos it's a look out

Brandon Reed @nadine_. That's possible, too, but I got the impression that Chilli and Frisky had shared memories there. And since the euphemism that she used was, "think..." Lol

Nadine . Dude, every single episode is pure gold. They do so many awesome things, like when bingo is the pov, things just kind of happen, you don't get to see the behind the scenes mechanics- magic just is. I also love how they have long running "go to names" and the supporting characters' stories also evolve and develop

Brandon Reed Apparently, some people are criticizing the episode for having an unrealistically happy ending that gives false hope to kids who are moving and don't want to move. The episode, however, through Calypso even answers why most stories for children have happy endings: "Because life gives us enough sad ones." Furthermore, some of these same people don't criticize Cinderella for showing a poor girl with an abusive stepmother escaping her circumstances by marrying into royalty. And they don't criticize Snow White for not showing any of the more realistic consequences of accepting poisoned food from strangers. And they don't criticize The Wizard of Oz for depicting two tyrants being overthrown by happy accidents. Additionally, adults would have to understand that the Heelers moving would basically signal the end of the show, since all the established supporting characters wouldn't be part of the show. It also wouldn't make sense because we've had flash-forwards showing that the Heelers remain more or less where they are, since Bingo and Lila are friends for life.

Hoid :) I LOVED the sign!!! It was so much fun to watch. The episode was SO loaded. There was a lot going on but I felt like they juggled it well. For instance, you had the kids storyline and then the adult storyline happening simultaneously. I also loved seeing all the call backs to previous episodes. Overall, the episode was a work of art.
