Terrible to hear that happened. Otherwise, I'm excited to keep an eye out for one.

This is a kid's show, keep it PG. No ifs or buts.

Keep it Bluey focused, meta discussions will be considered.

No discussion of piracy or unofficial means of watching the show. The internet is vast, I'm sure you can figure it out without our help, fair dinkum.

No politics — again, this is a kids show. No need for 'em, mate.
