Bluey is an Australian animated television program designed for preschool-aged children that first aired on ABC Kids on 1 October 2018. Developed by Joe Brumm in collaboration with Queensland-based production company Ludo Studio, the narrative centers on Bluey, a lively six-year-old Blue Heeler puppy. Bluey shares her home with her father Bandit, mother Chilli, and younger sibling Bingo, who frequently participate in her creative play scenarios.[1] The characters depict a variety of dog breeds, some of which are modeled after pets from Brumm’s own youth.[2] Core themes emphasize nurturing family relationships, elements of Australian culture, and the value of imaginative play.[1][3][4] Production takes place in Queensland, with Brisbane serving as the inspiration for the show’s setting.[5] The series was co-commissioned by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and the British Broadcasting Corporation, with BBC Studios managing international distribution and merchandising rights.[1] In 2019, The Walt Disney Company secured global broadcast rights.[6]

Since its launch in 2018, Bluey has released a total of 154 episodes spanning three seasons. These include special holiday-themed installments such as Christmas ("Verandah Santa" and "Christmas Swim"), Easter ("Easter"), and Father’s Day ("Perfect").[7][8][9][10] The third season introduced a unique 28-minute episode titled "The Sign."[11] Additionally, brief "Minisodes" ranging from one to three minutes were broadcast throughout 2024.[12][13] A feature-length film was announced in December 2024, slated for global release in 2027; creator Brumm confirmed this will be his final writing credit before his departure.Cite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad nameCite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad name

Director Richard Jeffery earned the Australian Directors' Guild Award in 2021 for the episode "Sleepytime," which also secured the 2022 Prix Jeunesse International Award for TV – Up to 6 Years Fiction.[14][15] Composer Joff Bush received nominations at the APRA Screen Music Awards for his work on "Teasing" (2019) and "Flat Pack" (2020).[16][17] The episode "Cricket" received positive recognition from sports journalists.Cite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad nameCite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad nameCite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad name Several episodes have been adapted into illustrated books, including "The Beach," which was honored with the Australian Book Industry Awards for Book of the Year and Children's Picture Book of the Year (Ages 0–6) in 2020.[18][19] In Australia, selected episodes have been made available on DVD through distribution by BBC Studios.[20]
