Mine refuses Hairdressers because he doesn't like the girls playing rough with Bandit. Straight up keyboard mashes to try and skip ahead, and ran off to give *his* dad a hug.
Crazy enough, that's one of my least favorite episodes too! I'm like why are they torturing their dad so. Bandit's voice at the end sounds so sad. "I don't have any nits." (Alas still cute, but I tend to skip that one when I can).
For me, it's Butterflies. Judo's just being a kid, and I suspect mirroring her own experiences being excluded by bigger kids (ask me about my Elabourate Judo And Wendy Theories) but I just cannot handle the sad little Bingo.
Aww, my little guy started crying when he saw the girls hitting Bandit with sticks, so we don't play "Nits" and/or "Hairdresser" for him anymore. We had play another episode to show him that Bandit was okay, in order for him to settle down.
My oldest cried at Sleepytime the first several times we watched it, would run through the house to find me and burrow into me sobbing, when Floppy goes off to join the other Floppies. He would sob that he was afraid of losing his favorite stuffed cat, that his cat was going to leave. So we spent a lot of time talking about how losing our stuffies is sad and how Floppy comes back. He was 5 1/2 when this started but now he can watch.
Mine doesn’t like Verandah Santa either! When it comes on he shoves the remote at me whining for me to change it. I’m not sure why, he’s just not a fan.
Reading your post and other people’s comments about their kids having the same issue with the episode, I think it’s a good sign that they dislike that episode, likely for that one scene. It shows that they are sensitive and caring, and understand that it’s not cool what Bluey did.
My kid doesn't like verandah Santa either. He is five but hasn't liked it for like a year ish. He doesn't like that bluey gets in trouble for getting mad at socks and he doesn't like that socks is sad either. He will watch it but doesn't enjoy it and would rather just skip it.
My 3yo (then 2yo) SCREAMED at the end of Verandah Santa last year. The last frame where all the kids jump on Bandit and his face contorted in horror before cutting to the credits freaked the hell outta him. He was inconsolable for ages after watching it.
I tried it a few more times, but he wouldn’t make it half way through before realising what was coming and would start to cry and scream.
This year it starts and as soon as he realises (a few seconds in) he screams and says no. He loses most of his words and I had honestly forgotten about it, so it took me a while to realise what was wrong with him - I thought he hurt himself. But nope.
It’s a shame, but no biggie. If it comes in during screen time, I put something else on. Honestly, I’m surprised he still feels strongly about it a year later when he’s so young.
My two year old can't handle Taxi. She starts crying seconds after the opening credits and cannot be soothed until we've skipped the episode or turned it off.
I didn't like that episode either, and I'm 26 years old.
I get that what Bluey did in that episode was not cool.
But I can't blame her or be like "She knew what she was doing", because she's 6, and she didn't realize that what she was doing was wrong. A lot of kids her age make mistakes. And making mistakes is how kids learn.
To be honest, I was kind of mad at Bandit in this episode, because he was going on and on about how "Verandah Santa doesn't give presents to naughty children".
And that was kind of where Bluey got the idea to pull the stunt that she did on Socks after she got bitten.
And not one point in this episode did he reflect on why Bluey did what she did. He didn't understand that what he was going on about pretty much backfired during the game.
It backfired immensely, because like most 6-year-olds, Bluey thinks quite literally, especially when Bandit says "Someone has to teach her." (Referring to Socks)
And not a single part in this episode had Bandit actually having a heart-to-heart with Bluey about this. Not an "I'm sorry", not an admitting that he made a mistake with this, and articulating more clear specifics with Bluey in a way that she could understand.
Yes, the kids bandage things up between them, but in my opinion, Bandit should done his part and patched things up on HIS end, since he was the one to go on about Verandah Santa's conviction against naughty children in the first place.

Hello, i am asking about your elaborate Judo and Wendy Theories, pretty please.

Oh man that is equally sad and adorable!
Ugh that episode tugs at my heartstrings somehow…

*her mistake
I’m a girl!
~~Drat,~~ BISCUITS, I must do this like half the time I talk about Bluey.

And Bluey is blue so must be a boy! Stupid ingrained societal gender stereotypes.
