So, as a Dad, I watch a lot of the cartoons the kids watch. Actually I watch all of them.
My desk is in the living room and adjacent the TV (secret ploy to have them sit on my knee occasionally).
A few I have a dislike for, most are tolerable, a few I enjoy ... but there is one I watch from beginning to end.
I haven't mentioned it because there are no youtubes of them I can find and you need a VPN for Australia
to watch the local TV station.
This cartoon has won heaps of awards ... it's taken Australian kids by storm, but I don't know if it will translate to
an international audience.
The theme tune is below, but the full episode is in the news article in the link at the end of the post.
Bluey, the hit Australian children's cartoon, is set to go global — but only with Aussie accents intact
Bluey follows the adventures of a family of blue heelers, comprising two working parents and their two daughters, in a setting with obvious references to Brisbane, where the show's creator, Joe Brumm, lives.
Launched only last October, Bluey has already been downloaded more than 23 million times — the highest figure ever for any ABC TV show.
