I'll add to the chorus of praise for Bluey here. I've never seen a show before so close to my actual life. There's one episode where Bandit pretends to be a crane game, and it blew me away because I had done exactly the same thing with my own daughter just a few weeks before! It captures being a kid and being a parent in a way that is so real. Most kids content doesn't have the courage to be realistic in that way, they just want to sell toys or ad impressions. My daughter is five now and on the verge of outgrowing it, and I wish we had started watching this show together sooner.

The worst part for me is I used to live next to a house that was much like the one on the show, and it eventually sold for ~2.1 million dollars or so.

So while I idolise the show, I also sit around trying to identify the families net worth, which is likely quite a lot.

Its sad that we get this amazing tv show but the lifestyle in the show (having a huge brisbane adjacent queenslander with a lovely tree in the backyard and hours and hours of free time to spend with your kids) is out of reach for so many.
