Seven minutes of backyard theology disguised as a cartoon.
Summary: A cattle-dog family in Brisbane plays games that accidentally teach patience, repentance, and how to lose well.
My Review: Do not confuse short with small. Bluey understands that a stick is a sword, a cardboard box is a ship, and a father on all fours is doing sacred work. The jokes are clean. The feelings are large. Adults will cry at an episode about a leaf and then deny it. Children will demand another round of Keepy Uppy and somehow become kinder mid-game.
Concerns: Ordinary family friction; nothing coarse.
Overall rating: 5 out of 5
