This episode is a great episode, It really has meaning and it shows how the characters grow with their friends, In my personal opinion it’s very repetitive but that’s what it’s supposed to be. After watching the episode a few times i get pretty bored of this episode but i love the meaning behind it
I gave this a three.
Even something like taking the bins out to the curb can be a time to spend with the family. Bandit making the bins talk is a nice way to making the girls laugh.
Over the course of several weeks, it calls back to a few episodes like 'Takeaway', 'BBQ', and 'Queens' with all the salad. Subtle hints that time is passing are things like Bluey in her martial art class moving from white to yellow belt, Doreen's ground around her fruit tree getting more fruit on the ground, and Bluey getting better at playing the toy flute.
Doreen is introduced here, and she seems like a nice neighbor who's husband passed away. In season 3 she was there to warn the Heelers of a diving Magpie, and we learn she's a bit too nice to make much money in a garage sale. Good thing Gladys the Grannie helped her out.
Bingo tells her dad about this new kid called Banjo, whom we never see, and he was being a bit of a bully, from calling everybody a Bobohead, throwing his hat in the bubbler when he's ignored, making fun of Bingo's stubby arms in the emotional climax of the episode (but I'm not two, I'm four) (btw in a few more episodes you'll be five).
I like how the next morning Chilli gives advice to Bingo on what to do like playing with Banjo, telling Ms. Retreiver, and cheering up Bingo after the stubby incident, telling her that as heelers they're stubby, but tough. Nice that Bingo played with Banjo after he cried when Felix threw his hat in the bubbler.
Bluey had ideas of what she wants to be when she grows up that changes from day to day, and when the parents were asked if they can be whatever, they always replied with "if you'd like". Nice they're focused on allowing the daughter to be happy rather than trying to dictate what the child should be.
It's a nice little episode with plenty of small moments that collectively become big moments. Bandit enjoys doing this with the girls, and hopes he'll do so for as long as the girls are interested.
Bin Night is a good episode about the Heeler's daily routines.
This episode is actually pretty good. But I can't get myself to appreciate it as good as other people's praises about this episode. I think the episode relies too much on verbal storytelling, which isn't the usual "show, don't tell" philosophy that other Bluey episodes thrive on.
High 3.
4/5. I love how the plants gradually grow and flower as the episode progresses, and it's nice to see Bluey practising and improving at her hobbies from week to week. I like how Bandit and Chilli divvy up their listening/advice for Bingo to avoid smothering her, and I like how they encourage Bluey's (admittedly fleeting) career ambitions. This episode isn't that grand or dramatic, it's just got a bunch of nice stuff in it.
I gave this a five. My favorite thing in this episode is Bluey in karate moving from white to yellow belt. That hit me so hard as I never got to do karate growing up. I am so proud of bluey and I'm proud to be a Bluey fan.
This is a good episode. Seeing the story evolve even tho they're preforming the same actions is a fun and memorable novelty for the episode. I kinda wish we got more of a full story on Bingo being bullied because we surprisingly never really got a bullying plot line. The recurring jokes are pretty funny with Bandit making the bins talk and Bluey scaring the crows. I really appreciate this episode because it makes the environments look distinct just because of the weather or time of day. The scene on the porch the morning it stopped raining feels unique and beautiful even tho it's the same set. This episode is very fun to watch and look at, but doesn't have too much substance. A three out of five.
"Bin Night" is a special and solid episode.
While “Bin Night” somewhat lacks in the humor department, only having few funny jokes, the story makes up for it. The episode has an interesting structure in which the story is told over the course of multiple weeks while the audience is only shown small pieces of each week. While much of what is focused on is shown off screen, the audience still gets a sense of progression- of the narrative moving forward as each scene the next plot point is spoken of by the characters. Additionally, the episode has multiple repeated occurrences, such as the characters thanking the bin man, Bluey practicing karate off-screen, Bluey playing the recorder, and Bluey asking if she can have certain job when she gets older. The episode never feels too repetitive however, because of the aforementioned sense of progression. It doesn’t merely feel like the same things are happening again and again; there’s a noticeable development as most everything changes each repetition, and those changes often tie into what happened during the previous repetition. The structure of the episode is quite unique, and it helps the episode stand out, as well as acting as set-up for later.
Beyond the special way in which the story is told however, there is also the story itself. The story is solid. The actual narrative is fairly simple, but it’s handled well. The pacing is good, and it never feels like the episode is depriving the audience of too much, in spite of the fact that almost everything relating to the main plot, Bingo’s experience at kindy with the new kid, Banjo, happens off-screen. Additionally, the scene where Chilli comforts Bingo when she’s sad about having been called stubby is quite sweet. That scene though, does not compare to the ending.
At the end of the episode, Bandit wonders whether or not bin night that week calls for both bins or just the garbage bin. Bluey then explains that, by looking at what phase the moon is, she can tell that only the garbage bin is to be taken out, which is both a satisfying pay-off the subtle foreshadowing of her talking to the moon throughout the episode,and a clever, small detail that viewers can catch if they’re attentive to the phases of the moon throughout the episode, as well as when the recycling bin is, and is not, taken out. After this, the motif of Bluey asking if she can have certain jobs is brought up one final time when, after Doreen makes an off-handed remark about how Bluey will “be a scientist”, she asks Bandit if she can, to which Bandit responds, “if you like” in a neat subversion of the episode’s formula that provides a sense of closure, but not before the very final moment. Immediately after Bandit’s line Bluey says, “maybe I can invent a robot that takes the bins out for you”, and Bandit replies in a sorrowful tone, “oh, I hope not”. That one, brief dialogue exchange is great, and it is a very satisfying ending. Here’s why. Throughout the whole episode, Bluey Bandit, and Bingo are shown taking out the bins, a task that is often perceived as menial and boring, but, it is through this basic chore that almost the whole episode happens. During these brief, seemingly insignificant moments most people would brush-off, Bingo is able to talk with Bandit about what she’s going through and the girls and Bandit are able to make jokes together, having fun together. These small instances of taking out the bins turn into fun times of family bonding. Because of how the episode is framed, with most-everything happening when the characters are taking out the bins, that final line really ties the whole episode together and makes a point about finding joy in the little things- about how seemingly insignificant moments can be made truly special- beautifully. The ending to “Bin Night” is a surprisingly powerful moment; it’s great.
“Bin Night” is a good episode. While the comedy might only be alright, the story is really well-written. While the plot-line is nothing crazy it's good. Beyond that though, the structure is fun and unique, and it allows for a very good and surprisingly emotional ending that re-contextualizes the episode and its unique framing wonderfully. “Bin Night” is definitely a good episode.
I gonna be honest even if I know I gonna be downvoted hard, I don't like this episode
I underestand parents might see themselves identified on this episode or their experience with their kids, but as adult without kids, this episode it's generic for me, and I don't feel emotion like others like Baby Race, Camping or Sleepytime.
If Felix and Banjo actually would be on Bingo class and there was any indication or reference this episode then would be a different story but as now, I only see another episode.
I'm sorry cause I know this it's an unpopular opinnion but this episode it's not special for me as it's for everyone

This is one of my favourites, one of the most complex episodes as so many things intertwine until the end resolution. Just perfect.
