In April last year the beloved animated childrens show released a 28-minute episode titled The Sign. It followed Australian blue heeler puppy Bluey and her family – dad Bandit, mum Chilli and sister Bingo – as they got ready to sell their Brisbane home and prepare to move away. Another storyline featured the upcoming marriage between Bandit’s brother Radley and Bluey’s godmother Frisky. Some of the stars who voiced characters in the episode included Patrick Brammall, Megan Washington, Rose Byrne, Rove McManus, Deborah Mailman, and Joel Edgerton. At the time the episode left many viewers in tears as they tuned in to the ‘emotional rollercoaster’. The Sign was the longest episode ever – airing for 28 minutes (Picture: BBC/ PA Wire) ‘I wasn’t expecting to cry when I got up this morning, but here we are. Have a box of tissues nearby before you start,’ user isaacjamesellison posted on IMDB. ‘Sitting here balling my eyes out. Never did I think I’d be sitting here writing a review about a kids show, but here I am. Outstanding,’ arsenalarerockers shared. ‘Bluey is not just a kids show. It’s for everyone – kids and adults alike. The Sign is an amazing episode in an already outstanding show. TV doesn’t get much better than this. I love this show,’ traviswhoughton added. This episode – the season 3 finale – drew in an audience of nearly 2.3 million when it aired on ABC in Australia, while it was then released on Disney Plus internationally.
